 I cut the shape of the tag using the Rounded Tag Die. I added ink on the tag using Distress Oxide Ink and the Knit Stitch Stencil. Then I stamped the sentiments from the Hand Knit With Love Stamp Set. As you can see, I broke the sentiment up. I placed tape on the parts I didn't want inked up, then inked up the line I wanted, pulled off the tape and stamped. Next, I stamped and colored the ball of yarn and heart image, fussy cut them out, and placed them on the tag with foam tape.

 Here is a closeup of the 3 mini gnomes. Aren't they CUTE?!

Jaded Blossom April 2021 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 2

 Happy Tuesday! Today, we are on Day 2 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom APRIL 2021 Release, which is a must have for all of you who knit, crochet and sew! This release is full of so much goodness and you are going to love it all once again! To get the best deal, you will want to purchase the "Gotta Have It Now" package.

 For my project today, I created a lid topper for a plastic container housing some thread. The large die from the Circle Internal Scallops Dies 1 happen to fit inside the lid perfectly!

I found some white scallop ribbon that I glued to the inside of the lid and also to the outside part of the container.

To create the inside lid topper, I just rubbed Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink on the Chevron Stencil and then stamped one of the sentiments towards the bottom of the circle. I added the sewing machine image on foam tape. Then I glued the white ribbon to the inside of the lid and placed the circle panel on top of the lid with foam tape.

Jaded Blossom April 2021 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

 Happy Monday everyone! Today is Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom APRIL 2021 Release, which is a must have for all of you who knit, crochet and sew! This release is full of so much goodness and you are going to love it all once again! To get the best deal, you will want to purchase the "Gotta Have It Now" package.

 For my project today, I used the Knit Stitch Stencil and inked up the front of a white gift bag in some pastel colors using Distress Oxide Inks: Wilted Violet, Tumbled Glass, Squeezed Lemonade, and Worn Lipstick. I overlapped the stencil to continue the pattern all the way to the bottom of the bag. 

Next, I inked up a scrap piece of paper for the background of the square panel with the same DO Inks and then splattered water on it to create the light dots. I LOVE the new Square Internal Scallops Dies 1 Set! It created the perfect frame for this heart image from the Knit Happens Stamp Set.

Jaded Blossom: TREE STENCIL CARD

 For the month of April, Jaded Blossom is having a STENCIL CHALLENGE! I made a card previously for this challenge using the Tree Stencil (you can view it HERE), and decided to create a different type of card using the same stencil. I love that this stencil comes with both the outline and inset part of the stencil so you can do overlays on your project.

 

For this card, I used the main stencil and a combo of Distress Oxide Inks and Memento Ink to color in the trees. Then I laid the tree cut-outs over the colored trees so I could add the clouds and grassy area around the trees, but still be able to keep the crisp outline of the trees. Did you know you can also use die-cuts as stencils? I use the cloud border die from the Border Dies 2 Set and cut a piece of cardstock. Then I laid the cloud border down on my card panel and rubbed Broken China Distress Oxide Ink along the cloud edge. The sentiment is from the Seasonal Tree Stamp Set (retired). 

We hope you play along in the April Challenge for a chance to win a FREE Stamp Set! Be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes. 

 

 Hugs,

Jaded Blossom April 2021 Challenge: STENCILS

 Hi friends! It's the first Sunday of the month and that means we have a brand new challenge at Jaded Blossom!

 Our next challenge is an easy one:

STENCILS!

(make any project using a stencil) 

Challenge Guidelines: 

1) Project must be new for this challenge, no back-linking

2) Project must have a Jaded Blossom stamp or die somewhere on it. 

3) Only one entry per person

4) Link it up below by Saturday, 05/01/2021

Prize:

This month's prize for a randomly selected winner is:

For today's card, I was inspired by an image I saw on the internet (I believe it came from Shutterstock). I remember Jaded Blossom came out with a Tree Stencil last year so I pulled it out along with my Versafine Black Ink. Why did I use the Verafine Ink instead of Black Soot Distress Ink? I felt like the Versafine Ink was juicier and gave a deeper black image. I cut a round circle from white cardstock and then used a small makeup blending brush to stipple and blend on the black ink using the different trees included on the stencil sheet. I LOVE how it came out! 

 

 I adhered the moon/tree circle on to a black card base using foam tape for a little dimension. The sentiment is from the Sweet Travels Stamp Set, and heat embossed at the bottom of the black card base using white embossing powder. 

We hope you play along in the April Challenge for a chance to win a FREE Stamp Set! Be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes. 

 

Hugs,
