Happy June! I am sooooo looking forward to the warmer weather: trips to the beach, walks after dinner, no heavy coats or boots, and a more relaxed state of mind.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The warmer weather is also very inspiring to me, so I have some exciting news about Jewelry by Jeanette. I'm now curating designer jewelry making kits and offering free classes on YouTube that show how to make jewelry with them. They are beginner friendly and show tecniques in a step-by-step, easy-to-follow format.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Here are some photos of the first few kits, along with the jewelry that I show you how to make in my videos. Links to my Etsy shop and YouTube channel are below the photos. Thanks for visiting today. Remember to do something nice for someone today, and create something wonderful!</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_KqJdLuZw2EAZ4peH5ccMg7znov3dmU-3j2IsD4uCS1V--UsX25yqkFTHl675Udvmq_lv3qaru2OE1AmwL5wvIdCCMgSu4vkPHqTnoaDCONGtyzvEFwN3Zn7vJ-UHm8hc4iZ6GYsHjqA2jsru8LrjRvDPqjiF3A3WvVvr9sgqFS1LfIm8WE2CK98yqw/s2700/2023-06-01%2013.28.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2026" data-original-width="2700" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_KqJdLuZw2EAZ4peH5ccMg7znov3dmU-3j2IsD4uCS1V--UsX25yqkFTHl675Udvmq_lv3qaru2OE1AmwL5wvIdCCMgSu4vkPHqTnoaDCONGtyzvEFwN3Zn7vJ-UHm8hc4iZ6GYsHjqA2jsru8LrjRvDPqjiF3A3WvVvr9sgqFS1LfIm8WE2CK98yqw/s320/2023-06-01%2013.28.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh3tZAWcGJ6_hb8YHjzLb9ftsdDS7G7Iv1YyVp_hEaHilfgUmnK595XbbgT3bXcSVbTRw42KN7vo_-dcM9GSacxN-EIoLDfQHnlB-Ag5tjSflZ4ax3N_bh3LNUTltw4cLHYfbpRSTNCbeVIzYlavocNu_JFlkllO9gME92MmV78V9DCIBTFlzzlXPfNw/s1734/2023-06-01%2022.17.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1722" data-original-width="1734" height="318" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh3tZAWcGJ6_hb8YHjzLb9ftsdDS7G7Iv1YyVp_hEaHilfgUmnK595XbbgT3bXcSVbTRw42KN7vo_-dcM9GSacxN-EIoLDfQHnlB-Ag5tjSflZ4ax3N_bh3LNUTltw4cLHYfbpRSTNCbeVIzYlavocNu_JFlkllO9gME92MmV78V9DCIBTFlzzlXPfNw/s320/2023-06-01%2022.17.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq6CXtnZFDBBKLMCbtQSPld6EZdnTkWRrXE18_37HHphT_rpSOkziaJtkmH5R8PGwpgXjgIyFumn4blJTM-tSdYQ2s85yEkMEEzGOjgydOiWpARbUe38P2Y3Tk6sGnllHFEQIDlrsTVIembJpsnQSo5CS9-JUKXI1K2n5nJ8DFkRR_LpKmLolfAojjkw/s2000/Kit%20with%20Samples.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1269" data-original-width="2000" height="203" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq6CXtnZFDBBKLMCbtQSPld6EZdnTkWRrXE18_37HHphT_rpSOkziaJtkmH5R8PGwpgXjgIyFumn4blJTM-tSdYQ2s85yEkMEEzGOjgydOiWpARbUe38P2Y3Tk6sGnllHFEQIDlrsTVIembJpsnQSo5CS9-JUKXI1K2n5nJ8DFkRR_LpKmLolfAojjkw/s320/Kit%20with%20Samples.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/JeanettesCraftyPlace" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;">Jeanette's Crafty Place (Jewelry by Jeanette)</span></a><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@JewelrybyJeanette" target="_blank">YouTube Channel: Jewelry by Jeanette</a><br /></span><p></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Scrapjannyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06727113044702067551noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-136436273494855500.post-65741236224725253722021-08-21T09:39:00.004-04:002021-08-21T10:28:31.223-04:00Sketchy Saturday on 2 Peas Refugees<div style="text-align: left;">Happy Saturday, everyone!

Today's throwback isn't really a throwback, in the sense that it isn't a video walk down Memory Lane. Today I decided to make some birthday cards for a birthday RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) group that I belong to. Since I wanted to get a head start on my January cards, and since I still had my box of Christmas stamps out, I thought I would use a snowflake background stamp. Almost all the supplies I used were quite old. A full supply list, with links to where you can buy them, will be at the end of this post. If you'd like to know how I made these, please leave a comment below to let me know. Thanks for visiting, and Happy Holidays!<br />

It was such an exciting time for us stampers. We got a chance to play with all those supplies we'd collected during the year and do something fun with them. It was so disappointing when he stopped doing them in 2016. I really miss them.<br />
<br />
Yesterday I thought I'd re-visit some of them and share with you. I thought it would be very timely, since things are getting down to the wire, and you're probably (like me) getting ready to wrap some Christmas gifts.<br />
<br />
Here ya go: Enjoy!<br />

Although this video is filmed at an unusual angle, the card is cute and pretty easy to make. You don't need all the dies she uses, and you don't even need the same stamp set. You could use any animals and trees you have to make something similar. Enjoy!<br />

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family, friends, and loved ones. For today's video, I chose another one from Gina K. If you have her Foil Mates, or any other holiday foiling supplies, she has some really cute ideas here. Have fun, and remember: Only 26 more days until Christmas! Get busy on those Christmas cards!<br />

Even if you don't have this stamp set, you probably have similar stamps in your stash. I love mixing and matching stamps from different sets to make something fun and creative! This video is a bit on the long side, but Gina teaches some simple, useful techniques, so I think it's well worth the time. I hope you like it, and thanks for following my Holiday Throwback Series!<br />

I'm continuing my progress through KW's 2009 Holiday Card Series, and I think this one is something almost all of us can do.

Whip up a bunch of button snowman cards, a la Kristina Werner. Re-visiting this series is giving me so much inspiration, and it's so much fun to watch her use products that I haven't used in a long time. Enjoy!<br />

Today is the first day of my Holiday Card Throwback Series, where I will post "blast from the past" videos showing how to make holiday cards. Have you got supplies that you've bought over the years because someone did something cool with them? Have they been sitting around doing nothing ever since? Maybe you'll see them used in one of these videos!<br />
<br />
Please note that these are not my videos, and I'm not endorsing any of the original posters or the companies mentioned in the videos. I haven't received any compensation from anyone. I'm sharing these for fun and inspiration. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!<br />
<br />
************************************************************************<br />
<br />
Today's video inspiration comes from Kristina Werner's 2009 Holiday Card Series. She uses her Cricut Expression with SCAL, the Fiskars Threading Water punch, the WRMK Corner Chomper, and an old SU snowflake punch! (Maybe we have some of these?) Enjoy!<br />

I used Yupo paper, glossy paper, and the front and back of photo paper. I got the idea to use the back from a video on YouTube. The woman who made the video said it was very similar to Yupo paper, so I gave it a try. The glossy side of the photo paper wasn't successful, The inks didn't move at all, since they were absorbed into the paper very quickly. The results I got from the regular glossy paper weren't that great either. Here are the rest of the results, with a description below the photo:<br />

<br />
I used Ranger/Tim Holtz alcohol inks in the following colors): <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZXobmc" target="_blank">Red Pepper</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2Xy5zf1" target="_blank">Valencia</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2Nlyv62" target="_blank">Sunset Orange</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2XBaknR" target="_blank">Peach Bellini</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2XgDaul" target="_blank">Sunshine Yellow</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2LnXqmV" target="_blank">Lemonade</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2Lo8iku" target="_blank">Limeade</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2FDeVM3" target="_blank">Citrus</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2RSgLxT" target="_blank">Aqua</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2RHSgTP" target="_blank">Turquoise</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2Xy63Sn" target="_blank">Mermaid</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/302BlhT" target="_blank">Cool Peri</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/302BlhT" target="_blank">Purple Twilight</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/2NkMYit" target="_blank">Eggplant</a>. I also tried the Brea Reese alcohol inks in these 3 colors: <a href="https://amzn.to/2XiMn5t" target="_blank">Rose</a>, Kelly Green (no link available), and <a href="https://amzn.to/2XAH8O1" target="_blank">Ocean Green</a>.<br />
<br />
The top 2 backgrounds were done on <a href="https://amzn.to/2NjI99f" target="_blank">Yupo paper</a>, which I found to be the most successful substrate. It was easy to move and blend the inks, and I was able to create those beautiful cells that I love so much. In all the backgrounds, you will see small flecks of <a href="https://amzn.to/2ZXtp1i" target="_blank">Deco Foil</a> that I applied while the ink was still a little tacky. I used leftover scraps that I had used on other projects, just a dab here and there.<br />
<br />
In the next row, the orange background on the left was done on the back of <a href="https://amzn.to/2JaV2x0" target="_blank">Canon Glossy Photo Paper</a>. I was surprised at how successful this was. Although the inks didn't move quite as easily, and they took a little more work, I was happy with the results. The finish is more matte than that of the Yupo paper. The second background was done on Yupo paper.<br />
<br />
The background (it's actually one cut in half) in the bottom row was made on the back of <a href="https://amzn.to/2JqP4sb" target="_blank">HP Glossy Photo Paper</a>. Like the Canon paper, I had to work a little harder with this one, and it was my least favorite. I did like the end results, but the <a href="https://amzn.to/300ea7U" target="_blank">Alcohol Ink Blending Solution</a> and plain alcohol that I used reacted in a strange way with the coating on the back of the paper. Some spots were shiny, and others were matte. Some of the ink also rubbed off, but I buffed the paper with a paper towel when I was done. No more ink is rubbing off now, and I was able to make the 2 card bases that you see in the photo.<br />
<br />
Overall, my favorite substrate to use is still the Yupo paper. It's the most expensive, but there are cheaper alternatives available on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/" target="_blank">Amazon</a> as well. The back side of photo paper is a less expensive way to go, especially if you have tons of it like I do.<br />
<br />
Play around with different substrates, and see what happens. You might be pleasantly surprised at the results!

<span style="font-size: large;">I hope you're enjoying this spring weather as much as I am! This is my kind of weather. Not too hot and not too cool. I like the summer too, but only if I can get to the beach to enjoy the cool ocean water and sea air. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I tend to use the colors of the ocean - blues, greens, sometimes purples - in my creative projects, including the jewelry I design.</span><br />

Today I completed a layout for another challenge on a private board I belong to. Everything in this layout is an old product from my stash. Don't get me wrong. I LOVE to shop! But so much of the new scrapbooking stuff I'm seeing looks like products that I already have in my stash. So here is my new layout made with old supplies. Thanks for looking!<div>

The challenge is to put together a kit (rules are in <a href="http://2peasrefugees.boards.net/thread/92110/insd-make-challenge-come-play?page=1&scrollTo=2529789" target="_blank">this thread</a>) for International Scrapbooking Day. Here is my kit. I'm going to create a layout about Cindy, a very special doll that my daughter has had since she was a baby, for another INSD contest. I'll post the layout once the contest is over, whether I win or not. :)<br />
