Stampin! with Jaydee

Coffee Love - and Friends

Hi Everyone. Happy Thursday. I hope you are staying warm.... us? We are under another winter storm watch for ice and snow. Rosemary/Teri - hope you guys are getting warmer :-) I have another card for the AECP class projects - this one is for the "Seasonal Scene Building". Now, this is a course I definitely needed, as creating scenes is just ... well.. difficult for me. I always admire people who can create these fabulous scenes from multiple different stamp sets. I just can't! Well, Nichol does a good job of trying to take us out of our fear... Read more →

Birds of a Feather - Happy Birthday

Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday. One of the classes for the AECP is Irresistible Inking Techniques. One of the lessons is a technique that I haven't used since I purchased my Misti a couple of years ago. Because I use my Misti for all of my stamping these days, my stamping blocks are tucked away gathering dust. So, when I saw one of the lessons was to use your stamp block to create a quick and easy background, I was excited as I had forgotten what a great technique it is. I inked up my rectangle stamp block and carefully placed... Read more →

Rock On - for the Guys

Hi Everyone. Happy Tuesday I have a quick post for you tonight with a guy card. Yep... after the profusion of pink that you have seen on my blog the last couple of days, I decided it was time to change things up a little :-) This is my class project for the "For the Guys" class. Jen shares some really cool ideas for masculine cards from sophisticated to fun. I decided to go with the fun and make a card for the boys with an interactive component - one of the suggestions that Jen has. I don't have many... Read more →

AECP Magnolias for Her - and Blog Candy

Hi Everyone. Hope you all had a great weekend. Me? I had a long weekend, as I decided to take President's Day off to get some chores done and finish my classes and projects for the Altenew Educator Certificate Program that I am doing. I am pleased to say that I have completed all the Level 1 classes and projects. So, you will be seeing lots of cards this week! The first one was made for the Let it Shine class. Hand's down this has been one of my favorite classes. I don't generally add a lot of shine to... Read more →

Hello Gorgeous for PP#381

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our challenge this and she has a clean and simple theme for us: Looking through my stamps, I realized I had nothing in the least bit sewing related - unless you count my stitched frames :-) My next stop was to look through my paperpacks. In all of the paper I have this was the only piece that had anything related to sewing on it. I decided to use a co-ordinating paper and use it to paper piece the outfit. A really quick and easy card to pull together.... Read more →
