Jane's Doodles Release Blog Hop + Giveaway + 20% Off

Edit: winner will be announced tomorrow and pre order sets are also available for the 20% off sale!

Hello!

Welcome to another JD release blog hop! 

I'm adding two new sets to the shop...

Anemone

and Winnie

I made a very simple card with my Anemone stamp set using watercolours to colour it. So quick and easy (the sentiment is from my Roses set which I stamped with gold ink). I think this would have looked even better if I heat emobossed the flower with gold embossing powder (which I don't have and need to buy asap!).

I need to use up some pattern paper and scraps (I just don't have space to hoard anything!). So that's what I did with this card using my Winnie stamp set.

I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder.

I did some fussy cutting (I always try to keep my images easy to cut out...I hope to have coordinating dies in the future).

For my final card I did some masking and kept it very simple and a one layered card. I just LOVE this stamp set....I think it's one of the cutest halloween sets if I do honk my own horn thank you very much! ;)

And as always I coloured with my Graph'it markers.

On to the blog hop....I usually giveaway the sets that are being released but I think from now on I will giveaway a $50 gift certificate for my shop...because I know not everyone like Halloween. So make sure to leave comments as you hop for a chance to with a $50 Jane's Doodles gift certificate AND all stamps are 20% for the next 24 hours! :)

Here's the order of the hop

Daffodils - SALE!

 Hello!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

It's a beautiful sunny spring day and it made me reach for my Daffodils stamp set.

Then I thought...why have a Daffodils stamp set SALE! This whole week Daffodils will be 15% Off!

 I didn't have a lot of time this morning so I used my water colours to make the background and once it was dry I stamped the daffodils onto it. SIMPLE!

I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder. 

Pop on over to the JD blog and check out Ange's gorgeous card!

Workshop at Do!ts

Hello!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

I'm so exhausted and I'm tired of hearing myself saying it over and over! Kids all have colds, more work than I can take...messy house!!

I had a private workshop with some of my crafty gals at Do!ts yesterday. I wanted to share with them how I make shaker cards and do a little heat embossing too. It was so fun, lots of laughs and chocolate!

We used my Mr. and Mrs. Claus, Warm Wishes and Stripes and Dots stamp sets.

Here are some photo's from yesterday....

I had some scraps and leftovers from yesterday to make this simple card.

My youngest fell asleep on the couch....think I'm going to go and join him!

Spotlight blog hop!

Hello!

Welcome to another Jane's Doodles Spotlight blog hop! I'm late...what can I say...as I type this I'm helping my youngest with homework, getting my other two ready for school (they are on different schedules).

Anyways...I'm spotlighting my two newest sets...

Cheers

Stripes and Dots

I used Cheers to create my first card. This set is great for birthday cards and also great for invitations...like perhaps if you're hosting a new years eve party! :) I think it's funny I drew up this set since I don't drink a drop of alcohol! :)

I did some masking and coloured with my Graph'it markers. I also added glossy accents to make the glasses look shinny (you can't tell on the photos).

For my second card I used the Stripes and Dots stamp set and stamped my background. I also used some pattern paper which is the only thing I hoard of all my crafty supplies. I did some distressing with white ink randomly on the card.

I also heat embossed the polka dots to create a cute background for my tag. I'm not too happy with this white embossing powder...I bought it in Zagreb...never heard of the company...maybe it's the paper I use?? Do you have a favourite embossing powder, if do please share?

Joining me on this mini blog hop is Jen (I love her simple style) and your last stop is the Jane's Doodles blog of coarse! I'm giving away both stamp sets to one lucky winner so leave comments if you'd like to get your hands on them! ;)

Also I'm offering 20% on both stamps today!

Off to Jen's!

flash sale - love you!

Hello!

Hope all is well! 

Another flash sale people! I thought it would be fun to have a sale on the stamp sets used on my card! :)

For this card I used Nuts about you and Butterflies!

I heat embossed the woodgrain stamp with white embossing powder and then blended over the whole pattern with ink. I stamped, coloured (with water colours) and cut out the butterfly and then layered it with some die cut butterlies.

Butterflies and Nuts about you are marked down 20% and this flash sale ends tomorrow!

Have a great day!

Father's Day recap + card

Hello!
I hope you all had a lovely weekend!

For Father's Day we spent the afternoon at Maksimir park (love going there). Marko and Mia rode their bikes and hung out in the park while Jakov and Adrian played soccer of coarse! :) Mia got to test drive her new bike that she choose herself...pink of coarse! :)

I also have a card to share today....I had a few flowers I had stamped and cut out from previous projects (that I didn't end up using) and they were laying on my desk clustered together and looking at them I thought ...wow..that's pretty! :) Don't you love when that happens...by accident! :)

I used my Pretty Peonies, Roses, Cube It, Autumn Blessings and a brand new set (that still has not been released). I added foam dots to the pink peony and green leaf for dimension and I didn't adhere the other flowers so that they were flat on the card.

Pop on over to the Jane's Doodles blog and check out Aga's sweet tag and gift wrapping!

Have a great day! xo

Beautfiul you

Hello!

Hope all is well! :)

I want to apologize for the quality of my pictures lately...I have no idea what's going on and don't really have the time to figure it out but I'll eventually figure it out! 

Anyways I created this card using our Butterflies, Pretty Peonies and Roses stamp sets. 

I did some masking with the flowers and leaf (the other two leaves I cut out). I added some colour using watercolours. I then heat embossed the peony with white embossing powder onto yellow cardstock so that this flower stood out and is the 'you' in the sentiment Beautiful you. I adhered the flower and one of the leaves with foam dots for some dimension. 

Hope you all have a lovely day!

call me

Hello!

Hope all is well and you're enjoying the weekend so far! I'm helping my son study for a history test from hell! Worst thing is he's only in grade 5!!!

Anyways...popping in to share this CAS card I created using our Attached to you stamp set. I stamped the phone to cover the whole card. I then hand drew the speech bubble on yellow cardstock and cut it out and heat embossed the sentiment with some white embossing powder. 

Have a great day!

I'm sharing this card I created using our TEArrific stamps set (both sets are hand drawn by me). Sorry about the photo. :( I posted a card a few days ago just like this one but with the tea cups.

moleskine + sneak peek

Hello!
Hope you all had a lovely weekend! :)

I did some shopping with Ivana (my daughter's Godmother)....she bought Mia her dress for her big day (First Communion) and my hubby needed a tie! Spending time with Ivana is good for my soul! :)

Anyways...I also picked up some Moleskine notebooks (I just love them...I'm a nerd like that! :) ). And I also love stamping and drawing on them to personalize them a bit! Here's a sneak of new stamps that I used to stamp this notebook.

I heat embossed using white embossing powder.

Hope you all have a lovely day!
