Flowerfull Heart #5– Perfectly Penned Birthday Card
And this will be the last of this mini series on the must-have Flowerfull Heart stamp…. this is the one we have done in classes this week.. though I have to say the photo does not do it justice..it is a REALLY simple card that packs a real WOW in the flesh!!
The heart is stamped in Pool Party onto Whisper White… the Perfectly Penned greeting in Staz On black…. and you are almost there. Just a bit of embellishing to go….
Very subtle…but…I coloured some of my Silver Shimmer paper with Coastal Cabana ink using a dauber… then punched 2 Coastal Cabana and 1 silver Itty Bitty Blossoms. Gave them a squidge using the embossing tool and thick mat and then finally added a Pool Party Candy dot and 2 pearls. Matted and layered using Pool Party and Basic Black… job done.. in less than 5 minutes….
Oh - and unusually for me – I have used the Naturals White card stock for the 14.9cm square card base…. worked really well!! And the mat sizes…. Whisper White 8 cm; Basic Black 8.5cm; Pool Party 9.5cm.
So remember…. this stamp will only be available for me to order until Monday 27th Jan…. please just contact me by this Sunday if it is must have for you too…
PLEASE NOTE – I will be back with another post very soon – we have a Jems team blog hop starting at 10 am on Sunday – pop by to help us celebrate 2014 SALE A BRATION …. and then hop on!!!

Mr & Mrs - Flowerfull Heart #4 - and a Colour Challenge
Fourth post in this mini series….. and a new challenge for a new year!!
As you may know I am a part of a wonderful team of Stampin Up demonstrators located all over the country – known as Julies’s Jems. One of our lovely team members, Julie Wade always amazes us with her gorgeous Colour Combinations so for the new year we have launched a colour combo challenge within the team on our Facebook group page. And this was the first week…….
This week Julie set us the challenge of Soft Sky, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake and Crushed Curry and here is my little make ….. Guess which stamp I had out at the time….. AND I just love this colour combination……. thank you so much Julie…… I have already made another card using the same colour combination…. but that will be for another day…! That card is a remake of my swap card for our Quarterly Training this Saturday…. so I don’t want to spoil the surprise!!!
So – this time – the heart is stamped in Crumb Cake onto Very Vanilla… the Mr & Mrs greeting is in Soft Suede. A few Itty Bitty Blossoms punched out of Soft Sky & Crushed Curry – plus a few pearls. All matted up onto Crumb Cake and then a Soft Sky card base…..
And … another Sneak Peek here…. the Crumb Cake banner is from the new Sale A Bration set – Banner Blast….. this can be yours for free with a £45+ order from 28th January….. and it has a co-ordinating punch too…. also yours for free with a £45 order. ( £90 + order if you want both for free at the same time!!!) And I warn you now… this little banner punch and stamp combi is …. addictive!!!!
So …. I give you…. the have-to have….Flowerfull Heart stamp… only available until next Monday 27th January. Just get in touch straightaway if you would like me to add one for you to my Monday order!!!
Oh and I have a couple more cards to share…. but they will be later tomorrow… definitely too dark here to photograph them!!

Flowerfull Heart #2
Second post in my quick series on the Flowerfull Heart stamp…. that is only available to order until next Monday 27th Jan.
These cards are true CAS cards!!
Take a notecard out of the pack…. A quick stamp of the heart and a greeting from the Perfectly Penned stamp set in Encore Silver Ink…Add a gemstone and a silver ribbon bow. And pop in an envelope.
