Stampin’ Up! Hydrangea Hill Triple Time!

Stampin’ Up! Hydrangea Hill Triple Time!

Hey there! Today I have more Triple Time cards to share; this time with the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper and Fancy Phrases!

Stampin_up_hydrangea_hill_carolpaynestamps1

These cards have minimal stamping; I let the Hydrangea Hill Designer paper do all of that work!

I used a Misty Moonlight card base for this one, punching the greeting with the Tailored Tag punch and tying a simple bow with about 16" of White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon.

Stampin_up_hydrangea_hill_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped-off the Misty Moonlight ink to add the little bloom spray behind the greeting. I used a Seaside Spray Pastel Pearl to accent.

My second card has a Blackberry Bliss base and layers:

Stampin_up_hydrangea_hill_carolpaynestamps5

I tied Blackberry Bliss Ribbon in a knot, then trimmed the ends to create a "faux bow" look!

I added Gorgeous Grape Pastel Pearls to each end of the greeting.

Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases Triple Time!

Stampin’ Up! Fancy Phrases Triple Time!

Hey there! Today I have a pair of cards to share with you that I created with the Fancy Phrases stamp set from the Annual Catalog and the Triple Time Technique. Triple Time is one of my favorite techniques as it is adaptable to so many different stamp sets. I created one with Misty Moonlight and one with Seaside Spray:

Stampin_up_fancy_phrases_carolpaynestamps1 (2)

First Misty Moonlight/Basic White. The images in the Fancy Phrases stamp set are  so gorgeous I didn't feel the need for extra embellishment so I only added a knot of Whisper White 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle to the lower right corner. This card reminds me of a set of china my grandmother used!

Stampin_up_fancy_phrases_carolpaynestamps2 (2)

The sweet inside sentiment is also from Fancy Phrases.

Stampin_up_fancy_phrases_carolpaynestamps5 (2)

Now the Seaside Spray version. Seaside Spray is retiring at the end of April from Annual Catalog. If you love this color like I do you will want to stock up on the ink  refill and card stock before it is all  gone!

Stampin’ Up! Hey Girlfriend with Pretty Perennials!

Stampin’ Up! Hey Girlfriend with Pretty Perennials!

Hey there! I love the two stamp sets I used on today's card, Hey Girlfriend and Pretty Perennials!

IMG_1547 (2)

I made two versions, beginning with this one with a Misty Moonlight card base:

IMG_1548 (2)

The Pretty Perennials Bundle includes dies, but they are to cut out flowers (not the flowers you stamp), and not the "happy". I cut it out with my Paper Snips.

IMG_1550

I kept the inside simple.

IMG_1551 (2)

I also created a Magenta Madness version:

IMG_1552 (2)

I colored the girl with Stampin' Blends, then added a bit of Wink of Stella to her bow.

IMG_1553 (2)

I also added Wink of Stella to the "happy".

IMG_1554

I colored the kitten with a Light Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends marker.

IMG_1555 (2)

Which one do you like the best?

Dimensions:

card base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score 4 1/4"  to cut scalloped oval: 3" x 4"

Basic White front layer: 4" x 5 1/4"   to stamp & cut out girl: 3" x 4"  inside: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

to stamp and cut out "happy": 3" x 4"

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks with Paper Blooms!

Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks with Paper Blooms!

Hey there! I created today's cards with Ornate Thanks and the free Sale-a-bration paper, Paper Blooms!

Stampin_up_ornate_thanks_paper_blooms_carolpaynestamps1

I used Soft Sea Foam and Rococo Rose from Paper Blooms. I cut the Rococo Rose panel with an Ornate Borders Die. I added Paper Blooms to the envelope flap.

Stampin_up_ornate_thanks_paper_blooms_carolpaynestamps2

I used Paper Snips to cut out the flower embellishment directly from the Paper Blooms. By leaving a narrow edge of Night of Navy it gives the look of an extra mat layer.  I added a single Rococo Rose Pastel Pearl for elegance.

Stampin_up_ornate_thanks_paper_blooms_carolpaynestamps3
I wanted this card to be an all-occasion one so I used this Ornate Thanks phrase and then stamped the daisy from the Ornate Style stamp set. I added 1/4" wide strips of Paper Blooms to bring continuity and color to the inside.

Stampin_up_ornate_thanks_paper_blooms_carolpaynestamps4

My second card is almost identical to the first with the exception of the inside sentiment. I find I need a belated birthday card, so I stamped the bottom sentiment from Itty Bitty Birthdays along with another from Ornate Thanks with Night of Navy ink.

Stampin_up_ornate_thanks_paper_blooms_carolpaynestamps7

Measurements:

Soft Sea Foam base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score 4 1/4" scrap to punch greeting

Paper Blooms front layer: 5 1/2" x 3 1/4"  inside strips: 1/4" x 4 3/4" scrap for bloom

to cover envelope flap: 2 1/4" x 5 3/4"

Rococo Rose strip: 1 1/4" x 5 1/2" inside: 4" x 5 1/4"

Basic White sentiment layer: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Ice Cream!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Ice Cream!

Hey there! Today I have a fun card to share created with the Sweet Ice Cream bundle of stamps and the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch!  I created two cards, one horizontal (also called landscape) and one vertical (portrait). I wanted to make them both into shaker cards, so I added the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles to the clear envelopes I inserted with the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper.

IMG_1515 (2)

I created the ice cream cone embellishment by punching the Ice Cream Corner Designer paper with the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch, then adding them to the Bermuda Bay greeting strip with liquid glue under the cone and mini stampin' dimensionals under the scoop!

IMG_1516

I heat embossed the greetings with white powder, then added clear Elegant Faceted Gems for some sparkle.

IMG_1520

All of the images I used on both cards are included in the Sweet Ice Cream set.

IMG_1522

I created the portrait card in the same manner, adding the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles to the clear envelope, then folding the excess of the envelope to the back of the layer and securing with tape. The sprinkles look good enough to eat!

IMG_1518 (2)

I stamped two of the Sweet Ice Cream sentiments with Versamark on the Flirty Flamingo greeting strip, then heat embossed with white powder again. I added the Heart Charm with rolled-up glue dots.
