Stampin! with Jaydee

Plaid Poinsettia Petals

Happy Tuesday! I did manage to get into my craft room to make two cards this past weekend, but it took a while to do them! Tonight's card is a bit of a departure for me - as it's a little "busier" than my usual cards. Most of the cards I've made using the Poinsettia Petals set have been made using the stamps and have been grey/green. I have really tried to color those stamps red, but I just can't get them to look right. So, I decided to use the die-cuts mostly without the stamps. I die-cut 4 layers... Read more →

Wishes and Wonder

Happy Wednesday! I have a card to share with you tonight that I made the last time I was in my craft cave, which, just happens to be over a week ago! I can't believe that I haven't been in my craft room in that long. The only time I have been in there was to put my newly arrived Paper Pumpkin kit on my craft desk yesterday! Last weekend I didn't get into my craft cave. I was so busy doing other things, including some genealogy research that I just didn't find the time. This week I have started... Read more →

Detailed Dove Dies for Freshly Made Sketches

Happy Monday. I have a very quick post for you today. I did get into my crafting cave for a couple of hours yesterday. One of the cards I made is for the Freshly Made Sketches sketch this week and I was inspired to use my Detailed Doves Dies from the new Stampin' Up! mini catalog. I love these dies and this will be one of the Christmas cards I make to send out this year. You can see that I had to flip the sketch to make it work for the dies. Die cutting and assembling the elements of... Read more →

Merry Moose for As You See It

Happy Wednesday. It's hump day and are officially on our way to the weekend! I have a card for you today - clean and simple - using Merry Moose from the new Stampin' Up catalog. Except, it doesn't feature the moose - just the tree stamp. I was inspired to make this card for the As You See It challenge - and it's a speed stamping challenge! I made this card from start to finish in 9 minutes... a record for me. I used the tree from the Merry Moose set and stamped it with a darker green in the... Read more →
