Birthday Bouquet Raffle Box


Hi Guys!

Today I have a little raffle box I made up last night to show you. I have used the box that I get my catalogs in & wrapped it with the beautiful Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper (DSP). I will miss this DSP!! It's so gorgeous!!


And here's a sneak peak of the stunning Affectionately Yours Washi Tape from the new catalog!! You guys are going to LOVE the new catalog! The layouts & pictures of all the gorgeous products are just to die for. If you haven't already signed up to get the new catalog, make sure you click the link at the bottom of this blog post or you can also find the link on the left hand side of my blog page.

I have used the Watermelon Wonder stripe & Copper dots washi tapes. I have also used the Mint Macaron stripe washi tape from the It's My Party set from the Occasions catalog. 


I am holding a stall at two markets this weekend. One tonight at the Clifton Springs Bowls Club (near the golf course) & another on Sunday in the Arcade in Drysdale, so if you're in the area, make sure you pop in & say hello to me! I will be having a (free entry) raffle for the lovely Hip Hip Hooray card making kit at each of the markets (hence the raffle box above) & I am also using another one of these lovely kits for Ali's kid's activities table at the Sunday market.

Have a Cuppa

Hi Stampers!!

Today I've got some quick, easy & cute cards I've put together with the Have a Cuppa Designer Series Paper (DSP) & a Whisper White base. I've also used a little Paper Lace Doily, which I think just looks super cute & suits the theme really well!


For the background & the banner, I have used a square of the Have a Cuppa DSP & cut a 5cm strip off the side, which I have then punched with the Banner Triple Punch & stuck down with the other side of the patterned paper showing. I have used a mixture of It's My Party Candy Dots, Basic Pearl Jewels & Basic Rhinestone Jewels. For the 'tea bag' cards, I have used the Note tag Punch & the Itty Banner Punch & stapled the two together with the Melon Mambo/Basic Black Bakers Twine. I have used the Decorative Label punch for the other two cards.

I have used Bermuda Bay & Wisteria Wonder inks. The sentiment is from the Another Thank You stamp set which is in the retiring list - get in quick if you want it! Everything is selling out super fast from the list!

OnStage Sydney was so much fun!

Wow! I had a AMAZING time at OnStage! I got to meet all my lovely team members, who I've only met online previously. Here's a pic of all of us (that's me under the banner in the back row):


The day started at 3am for me haha! But I traveled from my home on the Bellarine Peninsula to Avalon airport & up to Sydney to start the conference at 8:30am. We got an amazing calico bag with the new 2016 - 2018 In Colours on the front & the Mixed Borders stamp set inside - it's so pretty & heaps of great uses for it as backgrounds & not just borders! Along with some pens, a pink pencil case, a really cool A4 diary/note book and some other paraphernalia (badges etc).

We also won a stamp set during the day, I won the new Designer Tin of Cards stamp set which has tons of sentiments, I was so excited to win this stamp set! Some of the other girls got teddy bear stamp sets or mixed sentiment stamp sets, I am sure you'll see lots of people posting about it! I'll make sure I post some projects soon with the stamp sets I got! We also all got a stamp set at the end of the day with a cute swing, dog & cat on it. We also got a couple of bags of the little wooden peg embellishments & we got to take home the inks & stamps that were on the tables for us to play with!

There were so many great displays out in the main area! Some with the new products, some with some cards made with the new products & some with all our swap cards up on there! Here's a few pics for you!















How amazing are all of the swaps & samples!? Sorry some of the pics are a little fuzzy. Stay tuned for some pics of the new Product Suites coming to town, they are gorgeous!


Sara Douglass, the Stampin' Up! CEO, has issued a challenge to us all - Our 6 Month Stampin' Goals. They are for each of us to hold one extra class/party each month & to publicly announce our goals, using the hashtag. So I will repost this on Facebook & Twitter, but here you have my goals:
  1. To hold an extra class/party each month - I am holding both online parties & traditional in home parties. I also teach classes at the SpringDale Community Center in Drysdale, Victoria. As an incentive, everyone who books a party gets to choose from a selection of stamp sets!
  2. To promote to Silver (Elite) - I have put Elite in brackets as I am thiiiiiis close to promoting to Silver anyway, I just need one person to join under me as I have already reached the sales criteria. So, hopefully I might even make it to Silver Elite before the next OnStage. Wouldn't that be awesome!
  3. To have fun!! I still want to have all my parties & classes be fun & not stressful. I don't want to put the hard sell on anyone or feel negative if I don't get any future bookings. The party was a success if everyone had fun & that's it!
So they're my 6 Month Stampin' Goals & I want you guys to hold me to them!

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Brian King!


Oh my Gosh! Oh my Gosh! Oh my Gosh! I love Brian King!

How lucky are we, that we get the chance to blog hop with the lovely Brian King! Brian is really so lovely & very generous with his time. Brian has already given our team the most amazing webinar with all sorts of tips & info to help us get the best out of our blogs & posts.

Today we are excited to be CASE-ing Brian King (Copy & Selectively Edit), who is also joining us on this hop! How exciting! Stay tuned for lots of layering lol :P

I hope you find great inspiration from all the projects in this hop. You may just be starting the hop here at my blog (Jessie Holton) or you may have come from the previous person on the list. Be sure to click on the next person in the list to continue your blog hop adventure casing Brian's work.

I think Brian has a really defined style, that looks simple but actually has a lot of layering & thought put into it. I love Brian's cards! Here are some of my favourites, I found it too hard to just pick one! 


These cards just speak to me with their elegant charm & soft pastel colours. I love the look of the central panel with all it's layering and the clean and simple (CAS) designs. I find it really hard to know when to stop when creating a CAS card. Brian is the King of CAS! haha! I'm so punny :P

I've decided to do a bit of layering & the CAS look but use a completely different colour scheme for a more masculine look. Here is what I've come up with. Brian, I really hope you like it! And thank you for all the lovely comments you leave from my entries into Challenges that you're a part of, I really appreciate it! xx


I have used the Guy Greetings stamp set inked with Mossy Meadow on Very Vanilla cardstock & cut out with the 2-1/2" Circle Punch. I have then gone around the outside of the circle with my Dauber using Sahara Sand ink. I have layered the Going Places Designer Series Paper with Basic Black & Mossy Meadow cardstock & a strip of scrap from the same DSP. I have also tied some string from my stash & stapled it to give it a more masculine feel.

My mother in law loved this card & asked for a bunch of them, so here are all the cards & one inside pic. I matched the insides to the fronts:


Click on the links to go to my Online Shop. I have used: 

For the black world map card in the bottom corner, I have also used the white heat emboss powder & the Washi Label Punch for the sentiment on the front.
