Hi Everyone... a bonus tonight... OK... I couldn't help myself..... the MojoMonday daily challenge number 4 - just screamed Asian Artistry. This is the best Stampin Up hostess set I've chosen. I used it with the cottage wall designer series paper. It's a really pretty layout, but challenged me to add more than I would normally do. I hope you had a great evening. Jaydee Read more →
Hi Everyone So..... no Dasher. No Asian Artistry..... you can't be on jaydeestamping.com, right? Wrong! :-) I promised you something a little different today and the new challenge from the PPA team to do anything other than a card, was the ideal excuse to show you what I've been doing in the decor department.

Hi Everyone - Happy Tuesday night! A very quick post today, as my meds are really messing with my head and are making me very sleepy. Thank goodness this is the last day that I will be on them. :-) I made this card for a friend who never ceases to amaze me, so the sentiment was perfect :-). This Stampin' Up! Simple Friendship butterfly is my all time favorite. I was inspired to use two of the retired in colors (Pacific Point and Kiwi Kiss) and use the Rock and Roll technique for the butterfly. I I stamped the... Read more →
Hi Everyone - Happy Monday. It was my DH's birthday a week or so ago. He's not really into the traditional "guy" things.... well... unless you count fast, red sports cars with names like Ferrari, Masserati or Lamborghini. As I couldn't find a stamp that depicted those, I decided to do something a little different. He's always been attracted to Asian art with simple clean lines. I got the Asian Artistry set as a Stampin' Up! hostess set and thought that this particular image would work really well for the birthday card. I stamped the image on Shimmery White card...
