Jessie B's Crafts!

Happy Sunday everyone, even if it is a bit wet & miserable here in the UK. It's great to see you here for another Blog Hop with an amazing group of people from all over the world. If you've come from Charlet's page it's great to see you, if you've started here then hit the next icon at the bottom of the page & you can see all 14 of the talented creations. This month's theme was a colour challenge of Black, Coral & Green. Well the colours didn't stop me I picked out the ink pads Basic Black, Calypso Coral, Emerald Envy & Lemon Lime Twist (which is borderline green...hehe). I then picked out one of the lovely black designer series paper from the Petal Passion suite & then I drew a blank slightly. I was rummaging through all my photos & believe me I have tons - even with running & going to a monthly scrapbooking class!!  I had left my scrapbooking album at home so couldn't remember what I had already scrapped so that...

Afternoon all, Hope you are all well & getting into the festive spirit with just over a week away!! Have you still got some Christmas shopping to do? I've got a few items to still get, hopefully can do it this coming week! Anyway, I'm going to be showing regular scrapbook projects with an amazing Blog Hop team, I'm so privileged to have been asked to be part of this awesome team of demonstrators from all over the world! The lovely Pam Staples who is part of the hop created this lovely sketch to follow: I really enjoyed creating this project & I've used some sneak peeks that will be coming out in January when the Spring/Summer catalogue goes live. The first picture is a my work in progress of the design before I was happy. I used the lovely Petal Passion suite:  Here is what the finished page looks like, I used the co-ordinating stamp set to create the flowers & the bottom of the page, mounted the pictures/journaling in Rose Red &...

Good Morning all, On facebook I am part of an amazing group, which is called RAK card group - so every month there is an event to send out a card to anyone who is in the group. You never know who you will receive one off so it is always a lovely surprise to receive a lovely card in the post. I'm going to share with you some of the cards I've sent out in October & the beginning of this month. As well as the cards I've received from Australia, UK & United States. I also sent mine to these locations. Here are a few of the ones I sent, I don't always send out the same cards, which is why I can't remember what I've sent, it is only by those that have posted in the group to say they've received them that I can share them with you. This one I sent to the lovely Priscilla in Australia: This one to the gorgeous Ruth in the UK: I sent one to Annie in North Dakota, but can't remember which one I sent her! I am pict...

Hi Everyone,  I haven't posted in a while, I really don't know where the time seems to be going! It is a nice autumnal day here in the UK & I spotted this great challenge over at Card Concept here is the inspirational image: A wonderful autumnal theme, so I made this lovely card: This stamp set creates so much depth with just a couple of stamps, I then just added a bold sentiment mounted on a scalloped edge square with some jute twine.  Thank you for stopping by & happy stamping,  X Jessie B X

Hi there,  I'm taking part in the Colour INKspiration Challenge again & these are the lovely colours the challenge has got for us:  This is a Facebook Group  but it is so inspiring to see all the creations pop up in one place, so I wanted to ink my Painted Harvest stamp set so I used these colours to create this alternative colour arrangement for the sunflower image:  I really like the contrast with the Pool Party & Tempting Turquoise, I didn't think much of the Pool Party at first & then as soon as I stamped the Tempting Turquoise I was like WOAH!! That is amazing! Here is the card stood up:  I hope you like it & thanks for popping by,  X Jessie B X
