Sweet as a Peach! Two Cute Cards and a Jam Jar 🍑

Thursday, May 13, 2021

Hello crafty friend! Thanks for stopping by my blog today :)

Today, I'm sharing three cute projects I created using some peachy cute products! In the new Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue, you'll find (on p 60-61) an entire suite of peach-themed products, the suite is called You're a Peach!

Here are my projects:

The suite includes the Sweet as a Peach stamp set, coordinating dies, the CUTEST patterned paper (DSP) and a package of six sweet little jam jars. 

Here's the whole suite as well as some cute project samples:

Aren't they adorable?

I couldn't resist playing with these cute and versatile products and created the projects for my Weekly Facebook Live Crafting Tutorial. You can catch me live on Wednesdays at 8:30 pm ET over here. 

Here's the first card I created:

For this card, I used Pale Papaya Cardstock (NEW COLOUR!) for my card base and first layer. I added a strip of the You're a Peach Designer Series Paper to add a pop of colour and fun. I used the new Scalloped Contours Dies to cut out a stitched rectangle to stamp the peach on. I stamped the peach using Pale Papaya Ink and added a bit of Calypso Coral ink using a sponge dauber to create some dimension. You can see how I did this in the video below.

Measurements:
  • Pale Papaya Card Base: 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2
  • Pale Papaya Layer: 3 3/4 x 5
  • Designer Series Paper: 2 x 5
  • Basic White for scalloped rectangle
  • Balmy Blue scrap for greeting

Here's a closeup of the second card:

For this card, I covered the card base with a panel of the You're a Peach Designer Series Paper. I cut a piece of Pale Papaya cardstock and ran it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine using the Stitched with Whimsy Dies. I stamped the leaves in Pear Pizzazz and the peaches in Pale Papaya and Calypso Coral. I used a sponge dauber to create the two toned look to the peaches. You can see how I did this in the video below.

Measurements:
  • Balmy Blue Card Base: 4 1/4 x 11, scored at 5 1/2
  • Designer Series Paper: 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • Pale Papaya Cardstock: 3 1/2 x 4 3/4
  • Basic White Scraps for stamping and die cutting
And lastly, the cutest little jam jar you ever did see!

I seriously can't handle how cute these little jars are! My daughter, who loves all things miniature, is totally smitten. These jars measure about 2" tall and top diameter is 2 1/2". They come six to a box and can be purchased as part of the suite collection or separately. 

Decorating this was a cinch with a strip of paper that measures 1 3/4 x 7". I wrapped it around the jar and stuck it down using Stampin' Seal+. I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around and tied it off in a bow. I stamped and die cut the peach and stem and stuck it on using dimensionals - VOILA! Easy peasy peachy squeezy 😆

Here's the video replay showing how I created these projects:

Wednesday, May 05, 2021

Hey hey crafty friend! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog, you're in for a sweet treat!

Today, I am hopping along with my friends in the All Star Tutorial Bundle Design team and we're featuring the Sweet Ice Cream Bundle from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. 

This bundle made its original appearance in the January to June Mini Catalogue and I was SUPER excited to see that it carried over into our new Annual Catalogue, woohooooo! Here's my project:

Here's a sneak peek of my project for this month:

I thought it was pretty cute! Funny story though...as I was filming the video tutorial, my embossing folder CRACKED! Literally, during filming...luckily my basic editing skills helped and I was able to cut out the mishap LOL

Back to today's project. I have to admit, I'm a little obsessed with our new In Colours, so of course I had to use them on this project. I used three of the five new in colours - Pale Papaya, Fresh Freesia and Polished Pink - I love how they work so well together, don't you?




All products used on today's project are available in my Online Store and are listed below.

Here are the details for my card:
