Koffee Break Kraft Kit#06(June-Thanks Gift Pack) - Tea bag holder#02_2016

Hi All

Every month I make a small kit to send to customers who use my hostess code. Here is a small tea bag holder :-) It's super quick and easy to make.

These tea bags have a really tasty fragrance, and I love the colours of the packaging. Some of them actually match the Stampin' Up colours which is really cool!

The holders are 3 x 4" when folded, so there is plenty of space to write a message behind the tea bag.

 I didn't fill all of the stamp images, so customers can fill in according their taste. Kind of like a colouring book.

I also Filmed a process video for this project, It's included to Showing How I did make a matching envelope without measuring the card.  If anyone is interested to see How I made this,  

You can watch it here or on YouTube.

Have fun!

Supplies List

Card base - Very Vanilla A4 Cardstock

Ink - Tuxedo Black Memento

Right....! I made a card last month for Annual Catalogue 2016 – 2017 Blog Hop Week 3, It was my first blog hop that organized by lovely ladies Sarah and Tracy. 

That time I was using this Beautiful "Best Birds" stamp set and I wished I should bought the matching die set too.

Well Here it is! finally bought one! NO MORE FUSSY CUTTING!!

Actually there was a project that supposed to be on this blog hop. but as this hop is the last one for now, I decided to use the die set for this blog hop project. so reminds me the project :-)

die cut 6 of birds and glue them together, made a thick bird(?), and put through big shot (just like to use with Embossing folder) , embossed the main coloured bird :-) huhhh sigh hope it makes sense.........(My short english is almost running out all...) I will upload a video tomorrow if anyone interested to watch how i made it....

A Birthday Card for Husband_A5_Card#12_2016(Stampin' Up! - Mixed Drinks Stamp Set)

Hi All

I promised that I would write a blog post for gift box and card... but It was super busy since last week. just got a chance to write this post! Hope I can write another post for the gift box soon! wish me luck!

I made a super simple card and envelope for my husband's birthday
My husband-James, has thought that a Card should be Big and shiny. so that's why my cards aren't his cup of tea.....(But he is very Supportive husband! in many ways - look after kids when I do crafting, let me buy stamp sets and dies........... lol )

anyway, so It was his birthday, I thought I should make a A5 size big card for him(A4 fold half)- It was very big to me considering that I like to make mini 3" x 3" / 4" x4" cards.
also used a Clear Wink Of Stella Glitter Brush to add some shine.

Also Filmed a process video for this project, It's included to Showing How I did make a matching envelope without measuring card.  Anyone interested to see How I made this,  

You can watch it here or on YouTube.

Have a fun!

Supplies List

Card base - Whisper White A4 Thick

Ink - Smoky Slate, Delightful Dijion, Basic Black Archival, Tuxedo Black Memento
Stamp set - Mixed Drinks Photopolymer Stamp Set

Stampin Up! Hello! Annual Catalogue 2016 – 2017 Blog Hop Week 8_Make own Wrapping paper#01_2016(Mixed Drinks Stamp Set)

Welcome to the Hello! Annual Catalogue 2016-2017 Blog Hop! You’ll be hopping around some amazing Stampin’ Up!® Independent Demonstrators blogs, each with an inspirational project, featuring new catalogue products. Currently you’re visiting Jerim Dickins - Willowpiggy from Crewe, UK,  Hello there! You can continue hopping by using the previous and next buttons at the end of this post. Now, let’s scroll down to see what I’ve been making.

Yesterday was my husband's birthday, so I made a My own wrapping paper to wrap one of his gifts.
I used 12" x 12" 160gsm White Paper, so It's thin to be a wrapping paper and good enough for stamping. I think 120gsm should be just good enough too. My daughter Jessica who is 2 years old had a hard time ripping it.

Mixed Drinks Photopolymer Stamp Set - I think this set is just perfect "For Men" 

Make my own wrapping paper was one of biggest reason why I came into the "Craft world" and found "Stampin' Up!"

I wanted the design to be simple, but also to have some colour in it. By stamping the ink once onto some scrap paper before stamping onto the wrapping paper, I got a good effect for the beer. The colour wasn't too solid, and because I was only using economy white paper the ink didn't seem to blend into the paper like it would do with Whisper White cardstock. It seemed to give a good bubbly beer effect. It's hard to explain, but I have a video for it. If anybody wants to see the video I will be posting it tomorrow. :-D

Stampin' up! Decorating_photo frame#01_2016(Botanical Builder Framelits Dies)

Hi Crafters

Today I am sharing a decorated ikea photo frame(I think this frame has been discontinued. can't find it in the official website!)
as you know my sister is going back home soon.. only 2days left :-( so I was preparing something for my parents that she can bring back in her suitcase safely(also save some shipping fee :-P)

This Botanical Builder Framelits Dies set is quite fiddly to work with because of all the small bits that you have to poke out(you can easily poke out when you have Big Shot Die Brush), but I think the overall effect is well worth it!

This Love & Affection Photopolymer Stamp Set is best stamp set for background! I used almost everyday for decorating envelopes. The words says "사랑해요" in korean, which means "Love you" in English.

DIY(Start to Finish) - A5 size Stamp positioning Tool with blocks

Hi Crafters

Today I am sharing a DIY  -  A5 size Stamp positioning Tool.
It's not a handmade card but It is a handmade stamp positioning tool. Hope It can help out crafters who doesn't want to spend too much money on only one tool!

But I couldn't make this tool If I didn't have the actual MISTI. Thanks to my sweet petunia for bring this wonderful tool to us.

My sister is currently staying with us since March(going back soon! which means I might be quite for a while?? But I will try my best to post projects regularly!), spent lovely time with her niece and nephew and away from work!

Since she is with us, she helps me lots of things, She even helped me when I made swaps for this April Stampin up On stage convention! at that time she didn't have any experience of paper crafting.
The big helping one was for 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue, I had to make tags, book marks, envelopes, Cards and packaging! and that time she started to enjoy paper crafting. everyday/week her love for crafting was growing. and she even bought a big shot machine last week.

and she is wanting MISTI. But she isn't sure that she can keep crafting when she goes back home. she will work full time and meet friends, then she might not do it much. so she doesn't really want to spend big money on small one item.

As big sister, I wish I could order one for her but I can't afford it at the moment, already bought her Floral Phrases Clear-Mount Bundle for her early birthday gift.
So I was thinking maybe I can make one for her.
I had spare 7mm thick mdf sheet, cutting was so difficult, I couldn't do it.
went to willko to find something very narrow wood sticks then when I passed toy area, I saw the willko blocks that I can buy in a tub choose any colour/shape for £3.50!!
that moment, Ting!

That is How this project came out!

Supplies List

Clear Acrylic 2mm, plastic hinges, hard plastic clear adhesive, double side adhesive tape, scissors, crafting knife, cutting mat, fun foam sheet, acetate sheets and grid paper

If anyone interested to see How I made this,  You can watch it here or on YouTube.

Have a fun!

the Clear Acrylic Sheets are a5 size for cover and base, so actual stamping area is 7-1/8" x 4-3/4"

Left-5mm thick for CLEAR/CLING stamp    Right-9mm thick for PHOTOPOLYMER stamp

Also put an extra grid paper and acetate sheet on top of foam pads so easy to lined up and clean up.

It might not be perfectly straight and quiet, But consider I spent less than £10, I am very happy with the result!

Hope you enjoyed this project :-)
