Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Susan Wong - Number of Years

Image may contain: text

Hi Crafters!

Some exciting news for you today! We are CASE-ing (Copy & Selectively Edit) the lovely SUSAN WONG, who is also joining us on this hop! Exciting!

I hope you find great inspiration from all the projects in this hop. You may 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 Susan's work.

Here are the cards I have been inspired by - it was hard to narrow it down any more! I love how they look simple, but they really have a lot going on xx





And here is my CASE. I've used the Number of Years stamp set with the coordinating dies. I've also used the Stitched Shapes dies for the Vellum circle & the Bloomin Heart dies for the gold foil heart. A Die Brush is a must for a fussy die cut like this. It pops out all the little bits within seconds!


I've also used the Tranquil Tide cardstock & ink with the Layered Leaves embossing folder, gold Metallic Edge ribbon & some gold heat embossing. I stamped & heat embossed the flowers before I die cut them. I've matched the inside with some simple stamping.


I hope you've enjoyed my card today & that you continue to hop around the crew to see all our cases of Susan's beautiful work xx

Ink & Inspirations July Blog Hop - Carols of Christmas


Hi Crafters!

Welcome to our Watercolour themed Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop for July! Thanks for joining us & I hope you enjoy all the wonderful projects we've made for you this month. Please make sure you hop around the list at the bottom & check them all out! We've got so many amazing crafters on this hop, you don't want to miss any.

It's taken me a while to get this set out for a play! This is the new Carols of Christmas stamp set that you get FOR FREE when you Join my Team this month. For more info on all the bonus products you get in your Kit this month, see the Christmas in July info below - you only have until 31 July to take advantage of this offer!



I have made two cards with this gorgeous stamp set. I just love these big sentiments! I've created both of these backgrounds by splashing ink across the Shimmery White cardstock with my Aqua Painter.
You can either use a drop or two of ink from your reinkers to your palette or I like to use the inside of the lid of the ink pad. Or you can squish the ink pad so it leaves some ink on the lid & use that. A little water goes a long way! I have started by adding 2-3 drops of water from my Aqua Painter for the darkest/first layer & then added another drop or two for each layer after, adding 3 layers all up & drying in between with my Heat Tool.

The first is a Berry Burst Watercolour background with white & gold heat embossing. I've used the coordinating framelits to die cut the corner flowers & baubles & added them back onto the card with Mini Dimensionals. I've offset the flowers to let the Whisper White cardstock base show through from underneath. 




The second is a Wild Wasabi Watercolour background with a Crumb Cake reindeer & gold heat embossing. How cute is that little reindeer! I've die cut him & the trees with the coordinating framelits & propped them up with Dimensionals. 




I hope you've enjoyed my cards today & all the terrific projects made by the crew. You can see their projects by hopping around this list below. You're currently visiting Jessie Holton in Australia.

Enjoy the Little Things in Life July Video Blog Hop - A Little Wild



Hi Crafters!

Thank you for joining us for our July Enjoy the Little Things in Life Design Team Video Blog Hop. There are some really fun themes coming up, so make sure you join us each month. This month, we have made invitation themed projects & thought this was really fun & outside the box! 

I have made some little tags with the A Little Wild stamp set & matching Little Loves Framelits Dies. You can save 10% when you buy these in a bundle & you have to get them! Oh my gosh they are totally adorable & great for so many things other than tags! xx



I've stamped the little bear in Chocolate Chip ink & the little bee hive & bees in Crushed Curry, then I've die cut them with the matching framelits on my Big Shot. I've stamped both sides of the bee hive. I've also used the Starburst Punch for the circle to put my invite details on.


I've used the Crushed Curry & Marina Mist Stampin' Write Marker to colour in the little bee on the bear & write details on the back. The whole lot is tied together with some Linen Thread & Gold Metallic Thread.


I've used some washi tape to create the Come for a Sweet sentiment stamped in Marina Mist. My nephew left his Bunny at our house after his sleep over on the weekend, so we've used one of the tags to accompany Bunny home in the post & to thank him for coming to stay & play xx


Here's a little video of how I put them together. 

I hope you have enjoyed the little tag invites I made for this hop. We have an amazing team this month, so make sure you hop around & check out everyone's projects. You don't want to miss any!

Stampin Dreams Blog Hop - Lots of Lovely


Hi Crafters!

Welcome to the Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop for July! You are currently visiting Jessie Holton from Australia. This month, the theme is CASEing (Copy & Selectively Edit) the 2017 Annual Catalog! So we have all chosen a picture of a card or project from the catalog & used it to inspire our own projects. We might have been inspired by the stamps, colours, layout or theme.

This is the card from the catalog which I am casing from the Whole Lot of Lovely Suite:





And here is my very simplistic take on it that I used for Maddie's party last weekend. I love the simple layout that makes it easy for beginners or advanced card makers to get a great result! And the Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper is so beautiful, you really want to let it be the star. 


I've used the Pear Pizazz leaf print paper with the Pool Party Shimmer Ribbon & ink. The sentiment is from the Lots of Lovely stamp set & doesn't it just fit perfectly in the Pretty Label Punch! I've added a nest of Copper Thread & some copper sequins from the Metallics Sequins Assortment for bling. The sentiment is propped up on Dimensionals.

I've also done some simple double & triple stamped flowers & leaves on the inside & I just love this sweet sentiment, perfect for so many different occasions. All of these images & the sentiment are from the Lots of Lovely stamp set & have been inked in Pool Party & Pear Pizazz.

I hope the projects you've seen here on my blog today have inspired you & brightened your day. You are currently visiting Jessie Holton from Australia. Please see the list below & hop through the list to see all our projects from all over the globe! You don't want to miss any!
