Passover Blog Hop

Welcome  to a Stampin'Up! Passover blog hop.

A few of us Jewish SU! demonstrators got together

to share with you our creative ideas for Passover

that is around the corner. Did you allready get the matza?

Thinking od the menu? And how about decorating 

your table? Here are some of my ideas.

I hope you have arived here from Mirjam's Blog

and seen her wonderful projects. Hope you left her some love.

I have some table decoration and cards for you.

The moment I saw this beautiful Floral Boutique design 

paper, I knew i had to have it for Jewish cards. So I got the

whole set of matching dies and stamps, inks and cardstock.

Let's start with the floral table decoration.

I found on internet how to fold these flowers HERE.

And they are perfect for my table. I used square pieces of paper

of 4 x 4 inch to fold the flower.

After I finished the flower and glued the stick in the

middle. On to of the stick I added a sticky pearl

from the basic pearl jewels.

Now for the paper bag. Below You find the

folding template. You can do this with any size of paper,

that will fit around your jar (I jused an empty baby

food jar). For my paper bag I used an A4 size piece

of paper. Before folding it, I crupled it first for a used look.

Click on the template to see a larger version.

If you have done one, it gets easier. Try it with a piece

of copy paper first.

Now for the label. As Stampin'Up! has no Jewish words,

I typed those with my computer and used this fun 

free font called Bromello. For the word happy

I used the Tin of Cards word stamps to match

 the printed sentiment. The blue stamp you see

behind the words id from the Beautiful You stamp set.

Finishing of the card with more basic pearls.

Here you see my page with all the words I printed.

I left huge gaps, so I could add the

stamped words and easy to cut or punch out.

And now the cards:

For card #1 I used

Floral Bouquet designer paper

Detailed Floral Thinlits Dies

Star of David from Every Occasion stamp set

sentiment from Beautiful You stamp set

Basic sticky pearls

Night of Navy inkpad and cardstock

Card #2

same Floral Bouquet designer paper

Sentiment from Beautiful You

Petite petals punch

Glitter paper from SAB 

Solid Baker's twine Night of Navy

Night of Navy inkpad and cardstock

Mask that was available in the winter catalogue

Another card and pyramid name cards.

I always have fun name cards on my table and this year

I thought of doing these cute pyramids. You can use the 

Pyramid Pals Thinlits, but if you don't have those

you can use the template you see below. Maybe I will add

something fun inside for the kids around the table.

After cutting and folding the pyramid, I added the smallest

doily of the Metallic Foil Doilies. I love silver and blue

combo (but there is gold too!). On top of the doily there

is a 1 inch glitter circle from the paper that you could earn in the 

SAB period. Hope they come available in the new catalogue.

Now there is gold and silver still available here.

On top I used the banner from Number of Years

and the Star of David from Every Occasion stamp set

and a little basic pearl in the middle of the star.

And finally this card where the seder plate was the 

inspiration for my card.  I embossed the white background

with the softly falling embossing folder.

I used one of the larger metallic foil doilies and

cut it ino four to use for the corner decoration.

In the heart of the card I did the same with the

sentiment as on the paper bag. Around the middle sentiment

you see 6 1 inch punched out glitter paper circles.

Hope my blogpost gave you some inspiration.

Liz has in store for you on her blog.
