Stampin’ Up! Mountain Air!

Hey there! Today I have a birthday card to share with you that I created with the Mountain Air stamp set, Majestic Mountain dies, and the Evergreen Border Punch!

IMG_2476 (2)

I used the Double Z-fold for this masculine card.

IMG_2448 (2)

I used sentiments from the Best Year stamp set with Tuxedo Black ink.

IMG_2450

I stamped the mountains with both Smoky Slate and Night of Navy ink, and the treeline with Evening Evergreen. I stamped the clouds with stamped-off Smoky Slate, and colored the sky with a Light Balmy Blue Stampin' Blend. I cut out a tree from Evening Evergreen card stock with a Majestic Mountain die.

IMG_2454

Not much room to sign this one, so I will put a Basic White layer on the back.

Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden with Cajun Craze!

Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden with Cajun Craze!

Hey there! Today I have a couple of fun cards to share with you created with the Daisy Garden stamp set and Many Messages!

I did a modified Spotlighting technique, stamping the Daisy Garden exactly the same on both Very Vanilla and Cajun Craze using the Stamparatus, then cutting them apart and coloring only select pieces.

Stampin_up_cajun_craze_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps3 (2)

After I stamped with Soft Suede, cut the rectangles, and adhered to the Soft Suede card front, I then embossed the entire layer in the Ornate Floral 3D embossing folder.

Stampin_up_cajun_craze_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps5 (2)

I inked the Many Messages stamp with Soft Suede ink, then cut with the Messages die. You can cut out a ton of greetings all at once! I keep the spare greetings inside the stamp box!

Stampin_up_cajun_craze_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps6

I added Gilded Gems for a bit of sparkle.

Inside:

This version I colored one section of daisies with Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, and Old Olive Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers.

Stampin_up_cajun_craze_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps10 (2)

I added a bit of Very Vanilla 3/8" Scalloped Trim.

Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden A Happy Hello!

Stampin’ Up! Daisy Garden A Happy Hello!

Hey there! Today I have a fun-fold card to share with you called Pop & Twist! It's been around for awhile, but I recently found an easier way to make it, so I decided to give it a try. I used the Daisy Garden background stamp with Sunny Sentiments.

Stampin_up_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps2 (2)

I stamped the daisies with Tuxedo Black Memento ink so I could color them with Stampin' Blends. After I colored the daisies and the greenery, I colored around all of it with my Light Balmy Blue Stampin' Blends marker. I added a bit of shimmer to the daisy centers with my Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

Stampin_up_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps3

I cut out the greeting from Sunny Sentiments with a Tasteful Labels die, then backed it with two more Tasteful Labels die-cuts. I finished it off by adding a Bumblebee Trinket.

Stampin_up_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps4

As much as I love the card front, the star of the show is really the inside!

Stampin_up_daisy_garden_carolpaynestamps6 (2)

I lined the inside of the card with a Balmy Blue print from the You're A Peach Designer Paper, and used another Sunny Sentiment. I sent this card to a special friend who is just like a sister.

I currently do not have a tutorial for this card, but here's a great one I found on YouTube!

Stampin’ Up! Garden Birdhouses!

Stampin’ Up! Garden Birdhouses!

Hey there! I think this week I should be able to stay on track with my blog posts. Right  now I have cards made to last through Thursday, and I'm planning to do a ton of stamping today, so maybe I can get ahead and stay that way for awhile! lol!

Today's card I created with the Garden Birdhouses stand-alone stamp set and Scalloped Contours Dies:

Stampin_up_garden_birdhouses_carolpaynestamps1

I used Blending Brushes to add Crumb Cake and Soft Succulent to my layers, which were cut with Scalloped Contours dies and embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder. I turned the white in the Hand-Penned designer paper sort of vanilla-ish by adding Crumb Cake over it with my Blending Brush.

Stampin_up_garden_birdhouses_carolpaynestamps2

I colored the birdhouses with Stampin' Blends and added a few Genial Gems for some sparkle.

Stampin_up_garden_birdhouses_carolpaynestamps3

I stamped a greeting from Garden Birdhouses with Tuxedo Black ink, and used ribbon from the Flowers For Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack. I hand-cut the birdies with my Paper Snips and then added them to the card with tiny snippets of a Stampin' Dimensional.

Stampin_up_garden_birdhouses_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I stamped more sentiments from Garden Birdhouses.
