Stampin’ Up! Tulip Fields!

Stampin’ Up! Tulip Fields!

Hey there! Today I have another "scenery" card to share, created with the Tulips Fields stamp set and Windmill Fields dies. Both are on the Last Chance Retiring List for the January/June 2022 Mini Catalog. The list, and the discounts included on the list, go into effect on June 1st, so I wanted to start showing you some creations with items that will be retiring on June 30th!

The Tulip Fields Bundle ($45.75) saves you 10% when you buy the bundle instead of the stamps and dies separately. Starting on June 1st, the Windmill Fields dies will be 50% off ($16.50 instead of $33), so it will be a better deal to order them separately than as a bundle. You will save $11.25 by ordering the stamps and the dies separately.

I started with a card base and envelope from the Heart & Home Memories & More Cards & Envelopes pack. These are also on the Last Chance Retiring List and are discounted 10%, so instead of $10 for the pack of 20 cards and coordinating envelopes, you will pay $9! I added a strip behind the focal image layer of Heart & Home Designer Paper, also on the Last Chance List and discounted 10%.

Stampin_up_tulip_fields_carolpaynestamps1

I created my scene with images all from the Tulip Fields stamp set, stamped with Night of Navy (windmill), stamped-off-once Night of Navy (clouds), Soft Succulent and Soft Suede (trees and tree trunks). I used Stampin' Write Markers directly on the tree image to get the two colors, then used the Soft Succulent marker to hand-draw the grass and tulip stems/leaves. I cut Polished Pink In Color Designer Paper for the tulip blooms with a Windmill Fields die, and the bicycle (also from the Windmill Fields dies) from Starry Sky In Color Designer Paper. I cut the windmill with a coordinating Windmill Fields die, then added it with dimensionals.

Stampin_up_tulip_fields_carolpaynestamps2

I felt that such a detailed scene with fine images needed a greeting that didn't overpower, so I found this small "happy birthday" in the Waves of Inspiration stamp set and stamped it with Night of Navy ink. I then cut it with a Waves die, added with Stampin' Seal, then cut out two individual tulips from the line of tulips cut with the Windmill Fields die to add at each end with a tiny dot of liquid glue.

Stampin_up_tulip_fields_carolpaynestamps3

I finished the inside with another piece of Heart & Home Designer Paper, then added the sentiment layer stamped with Tulip Fields images and a phrase from the Happiness Abounds stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Nothings More Than!

Stampin’ Up! Nothings More Than!

Hey there! With the "notebook" die from the Happiness Abounds Bundle the possibilities are endless for creating "notes" and such for cards! I decided to use this die to create "notes" for a birthday card with the Nothings Better Than stamp set and Love You More Than dies!

Stampin_up_nothings_better_than_carolpaynestamps1

After I stamped the chocolate chip cookies with Early Espresso ink randomly all over a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Crumb Cake, I then used a Blending Brush to add shading to the edges. I stamped 3 cookies on a Crumb Cake scrap, then cut with a Love You More Than die. I also added shading to the cookies with the same Blending Brush and Crumb Cake ink. I cut the "notebook page" from a 2 1/4" x 3 1/8" Basic White layer, then created the "torn page" look with the Blooming Happiness die. I stamped the phrase with Sweet Sorbet ink and cut "cookies" from Sweet Sorbet card stock with a Love You More Than die. I added the die cut to the front with dots of liquid glue. I added the cookies with dimensionals.

Stampin_up_nothings_better_than_carolpaynestamps2

For the finishing touches I added a few Sweet Sorbet 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dots.

Stampin_up_nothings_better_than_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I added a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Sweet Sorbet, followed by another "notebook page", this time 3 1/4" x 4 3/8". When I cut out the "Love you more than" with the dies of the same name, I put Adhesive Sheet on the back so it would be easier to adhere. I stamped "cookies" from Nothings Better Than with Early Espresso, and "birthday wishes" from the Sweetest Cherries stamp set with Sweet Sorbet ink. I added an Early Espresso cookie here and on the envelope front and flap to coordinate it all together!

Stampin’ Up! Waves of Inspiration!

Stampin’ Up! Waves of Inspiration!

Hey there! Today's card is a combination of three stamp sets. I have had this card idea rolling around in my head for a bit and just had to make it to get it out to make room for more ideas! lol! I used the Rays of Light background, Waves of Inspiration bundle of stamps and dies, and Charming Sentiments!

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carol_payne_stamps1

I started by inking the Rays of Light image with So Saffron by pressing the pad all over the rubber. I then used a Blending Brush to add Daffodil Delight and then Mango Melody. I pressed the layer of Basic White to the image, rubbed gently, and then stamped the birthday greeting from Charming Sentiments with Starry Sky ink.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carol_payne_stamps2

I used the Stamparatus to add the Waves of Inspiration wave so I could re-ink with Starry Sky ink as much as I needed until I had the richness of color I wanted.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carol_payne_stamps3

I finished off the front with the pilings and pelican image from Waves of Inspiration. I used Soft Suede and Tahitian Tide markers to ink up the image before stamping on Basic White. I cut it out with the coordinating Waves die. I decided I wanted to keep this card as flat as possible so I didn't use dimensionals, I simply used Stampin' Seal to adhere.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carol_payne_stamps4

Inside I stamped another phrase from Charming Sentiments and the pelican again.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carol_payne_stamps5

This card was fun to make. Different from my usual, but a refreshing difference.

Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments!

Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments!

Hey there! I created today's card with the Charming Sentiments bundle of stamps and dies and the Design a Day a Daydream Host Designer Series Paper. I made a small stack because I am going to use these cards for some of the nieces in our family that our graduating this month!

Stampin_up_charming_sentiments_carolpaynestamps1

I chose this print from the Design a Daydream Host Designer Series Paper pack because it has the flowers on one side and the trellis design on the other. I simply cut a piece 4" x 5 1/4", then cut it at 3 1/4". I flipped one section over and adhered to the card front.

Stampin_up_charming_sentiments_carolpaynestamps2

After adhering the layer to a 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" piece of Blackberry Bliss, I wrapped 12 inches of Old Olive ribbon from the Old Olive & Sahara Sand Twill Ribbon Combo Pack and tied in a knot. I secured the knot with a glue dot, then adhered it all to the 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" Old Olive card base that is scored and folded at 4 1/4"

Stampin_up_charming_sentiments_carolpaynestamps3

The Charming Sentiments Bundle is a real game changer for me! After stamping this sentiment with Blackberry Bliss ink I was able to effortlessly "fussy cut" it out with a DIE from the coordinating Sentiment Silhouettes die set! This bundle has 17 stamp sentiments and 30 dies, one for each sentiment, plus bonus dies of candles, hearts, stars, etc. This bundle is a MUST HAVE!!!!

I finished off the card front with a few Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Stampin_up_charming_sentiments_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I stamped a coordinating phrase from Charming Sentiments, then fussy cut a scrap of Design a Daydream paper to glue in the lower left corner.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day May 22nd, Happiness Abounds!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day May 22nd, Happiness Abounds!

Hey there! Today is a special day for Troy, Grace, and Scarlett. Today at church Scarlett will be dedicated to the Lord. This ceremony does not save her, nor does it usher her into church membership; it is the public declaration of her parents and family to raise her in the "nurture and admonition of the Lord" (Ephesians 6:4). Her Papa and I will be there to witness and give our affirmation that we will participate in her upbringing in a godly way and that we will not cease to pray for her.

Today is also another day for sharing swaps, and I have a lovely collection to share with you all created with the Hues of Happiness Collection of products (and a few more!)

First, a lovely card created by Rhonda Bassler with the Happiness Abounds Bundle and Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper:

Stampin_up_happiness_abounds_carolpaynestamps1

Next, Nikki Barnhart cut some of the blooms from the Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper with Blossoming Happiness Dies, then coordinated it with Gorgeous Grape card stock and ink. Love the 3/4" White Frayed Ribbon on the side.

Stampin_up_happiness_abounds_carolpaynestamps4

Karen Titus combined Hues of Happiness Designer Paper blooms with the Bottled Happiness Bundle of stamps and punch! Tahitian Tide is the card base and the ink that stamped the bottle.

Stampin_up_happiness_abounds_carolpaynestamps5

Rachel Traudt stamped, cut, and colored Happiness Abounds blooms with Tahitian Tide Stampin' Blends, then layered them on Perfectly Penciled Designer Paper. She added a greeting from Happiness Abounds, stamped with Tahitian Tide ink and cut with a Stylish Shapes die, as well as Tahitian Tide 1/8" Metallic Woven Ribbon and some Pool Party Glossy Dots.

Stampin_up_happiness_abounds_carolpaynestamps6

Somewhere I've lost the creator's name of this simple card created with Hues of Happiness Designer paper and an sentiment from Bottled Happiness. The sentiment is cut with a Tailor Made Tags die and accented with  Pool Party 3/8" Sheer Ribbon.

Stampin_up_happiness_abounds_carolpaynestamps8

Lastly, Krista Wilson created an elegant card for any occasion with Basic White thick, Basic White, Hues of Happiness Designer Paper, Blossoming Happiness dies, and White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.

Somewhere I've lost the creator's name of this simple card created with Hues of Happiness Designer paper and an sentiment from Bottled Happiness. The sentiment is cut with a Tailor Made Tags die and accented with  Pool Party 3/8" Sheer Ribbon.

Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Cherries!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetest Cherries!

Hey there! Today I have a card to share that I created for a swap with the Sweetest Cherries Bundle of stamps and punch. I didn't use the punch for this one, but I want to make sure you know about it because when you buy the bundle you save 10% than when you purchase them separately.

I used a classic color combo of green and red, translated into Stampin' Up! Garden Green and new In Color Sweet Sorbet!

I started with a card base of Garden Green, then added a layer of Design a Daydream Host Designer Paper. The package says the green color is Old Olive, but this print coordinated with Garden Green perfectly!

I heat embossed the "Sweet" sentiment from the Sweetest Cherries stamp with Versamark and white embossing powder on a strip of Garden Green, then cut with the largest banner die in the Stylish Shapes Die set.

I stamped the cherries with Sweet Sorbet ink. I think I was a little surprised how pretty this color is because before you open the ink pad the color on the outside looks a little bit tomato-red, but it's not! The two cherry images are created to fit together perfectly, and the fact that the stamps are clear photopolymer is a big plus! I stamped the stems with Early Espresso and the leaves with Garden Green. After stamping I cut the Basic White layer with one of the Scalloped Contours Dies. I added a Sweet Sorbet 2022-2024 In Color Matte Decorative Dot to finish off the card front.

I used the same Scalloped Contours Die to cut the Basic White layer for the inside, then stamped a single cherry and another sentiment from Sweetest Cherries. I stamped a few cherries on the front and flap of the envelope to match!
