Stampin’Up! Language of Love!

Stampin’Up! Language of Love!

Hey there! I had planned to show you more of the swaps from my downline meeting on Sunday, but instead I learned this neat new fun fold today and just couldn't wait to share it with you!

Stampin_up_language_of_love_1

I combined FOUR stamp sets to create this card:

Language of Love #133704 wood-mount $16.95, #133077 clear-mount $12.95

Hearts a Flutter #131922 wood-mount $25.95, #129252 clear-mount $18.95

Countless Sayings 1 Photopolymer #135892 $13.95

Countless Sayings 2 Photopolymer #135893 $13.95

The card base is Baked Brown Sugar. Cardstocks are Whisper White, Real Red, Coastal Cabana.

Designer Series Paper is the Fresh Prints Stack #132996 $6.95

Hearts a Flutter Framelits #130159 $24.95

Bitty Banners Framelits #129267 $14.95

Small Heart Punch #117193 $5.95

Sweetheart Treat Bags #134610 $4.95 for a package of 12

Rhinestones Basic Jewels #119246 $4.95

Stampin_up_language_of_love_2

I attached one of the Sweetheart Treat Bags, folded into thirds, to the middle of the back side of the card to be able to add some candy! Fun!

Isn't this an awesome fold? Here's the dimensions for the card base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 2", 3 1/8", 5 3/8", and 6 1/2".

The dimensions for the designer paper layers and the Whisper White center layer are:

Outside fold sections: 1 7/8" x 5 3/8" – you will need two

Inside fold sections: 1" x 5 3/8" -you will need two

Center section: 2 1/8" x 5 3/8" – you will need one

Even without the addtion of the candy this card was a little bit too bulky, so I also made a coordinating envelope for it with Coastal Cabana Designer Paper and my Envelope Punch Board #133774 $19.95.

Stampin_up_language_of_love_3

I used the Coastal Cabana Baker's Twine and one of the pre-cut striped banners from the Sweetheart Treat Bags kit  to tie up the envelope. Really cute and easy!

That's all for now. I've made a couple more cards with this fun fold, but I haven't had a chance to photograph them yet. I'm hoping to get a chance to do that today so I can show at least one of them to you tomorrow!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Retro Fresh Geometrics!

Stampin’Up! Retro Fresh Geometrics!

Hey there! I am working on getting caught up from being gone to Leadership. Caught up my laundry today. Unpacked and bagged orders that arrived while I was gone. And I took some time to play with new Occasions catalog stuff! lookie:

Stampin_up_retro_fresh_geometrics_1

I used the Geometrics stamp set we received from Stampin' Up! to do part of our Leadership Make & Takes with Tangerine Tango, Naturals Ivory, So Saffron, Baked Brown Sugar, and Coastal Cabana cardstock. I used Retro Fresh Designer Paper, cut into slightly less than 1/2" x 3" wide strips, then punched both ends with the new Banner Punch from the Sale-a-bration brochure, then embossed them with the Decorative Dots Textured Impressions Folder from the Sale-a-bration brochure.

I just LOVE how the new Arrows Textured Impressions Folder so easily coordiates with the Retro Fresh paper!

After stamping "hooray for today" with Baked Brown Sugar ink, I added punched Chevrons  with Coastal Cabana and Baked Brown Sugar cardstock to the right side of the greeting. I added a gold sequin, also from the Occasions Catalog (did I tell you gold is the NEW silver?) to the center of both "o's" in hooray with a glue dot.

Stampin_up_geometrics_make_a_wish_1

I stamped a phrase from Make a Wish with Baked Brown Sugar ink, then added just a bit of Tangerine Tango ink to the flames with a marker. A couple of more chevrons, a gold sequin, and a row of punched Retro Fresh banners finishes off the inside and coordinates it with the outside!

That's all for now. I need to head off to bed. Alisa and Oakley & I are heading out for a little shopping trip tomorrow morning, then I hope to get back decently early enough to squeeze in some more stamping! I'm having a downline meeting this Sunday and a Shoebox Swap, so I need to figure out what my swap will be!

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing!

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing!

Good morning! We interrupt "What to Washi Week" to bring you this brand spankin' new creation:

Wonderful blessing 1

I created this with the new Wonderful Blessing single stamp (#134779 $8.95). I gold heat-embossed the image, along with Flowering Flourishes images on Midnight Muse cardstock.

I decided to use the "Double Door" or "Gatefold" layout. Here's the basic design:

Cut two card bases
8 1/2” x 4 ¼”. Score each at 2 1/8” and 4 ¼” on the 8 ½” side with Simply
Scoring Tool. Use the smaller end of the scoring tool to score your lines. This
lets the folds come together more closely when you put the card together. Fold
both bases into a “z” shape as shown in picture #2. Attach 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” sections
to each other to form card back with SNAIL.

I then cut the circles for the "doors" with the Circles Collection Framelits. It's not easy to describe this step. Maybe I will do a video for this card soon, we'll see! Leave me a comment if you would like to see this card in a video!

Wonderful blessing 2

I'm lovin' how this card turned out!

Wonderful blessing 3

The "merry christmas" is from Teeny Tiny Wishes, embossed on Midnight Muse and punched with the Word Window punch. I punched some of the new Gold Foil sheets with the Modern Label punch to layer behind it.

Wonderful blessing 4

That's all for now! I'm going to read to my grandson, Cohen, in his kindergarten class today for Grandparent's Day, so we shall see what I accomplish after I get home!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Bundle New Promotion Starts TODAY!

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Bundle New Promotion Starts TODAY!

Good morning! I'm going to start right off with my newest creation, then I will give you the details of the NEW Stampin' Up! promotion, Butterfly Bundle, that just happens to involve two of the products used in todays' card!


Potpourri medley 1

For my card base I cut Basic Black cardstock with the new Circle Card Thinlets Die, layered with Modern Medley Designer Paper. The Pink Pirouette scallop circle was cut with the scallop circle thinlet included in the set, (although when compared with the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch they are just about identical in size)

The Butterfly Bundle products used are butteflies from the Papillon Potpourri stamp set and the Bitty Butterfly Punch. How does 15% off when purchased as a bundle sound?

The butterfly was stamped with Versamark after rubbing the Pink Pirouette cardstock with an Embossing Buddy, then sprinkling with Black Embossing Powder. After heating with the Heat Tool, it was punched with the Bitty Butterfly Punch.

ALL of the black images on this card are black heat-embossed. The black-embossed "wish big" from A Dozen Thoughts has a Pink Pirouette Papillon Potpourri butterfly stamped behind it. It is cut out with a cute little label die that is included in the 10-piece Circle Card Thinlet Die set!


Potpourri medley 2

Above shows  the card as it is "flipping" . . . .


Potpourri medley 3
And now flipped! The wording here is from the Express Yourself Hostess set.

Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop Slider Card!

Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop Slider Card!

Good Monday mornin' to you! We had a BLAST yesterday at Jessica's, celebrating our August Birthdays! Here's some glimpses of our pool time (we weren't even all in yet!):

Pool

Liam loves the water! He stayed in the whole time, almost 2 hours, and never complained at all!

Liam

Jaxon not so much. As soon as PaPa came out, he was ready to spend the rest of the afternoon on his lap!

Jaxon

Oakley got to dabble his toes a bit for his first outing at the pool:

Oakley

Getting ready to take some underwater pics:

Underwater

It truly was a lovely afternoon. I got a little bit of sun, which is hard for me because I have to be very careful with sunscreen (my face is allergic to all kinds), but no burn, so that's good!

It was an afternoon of lunch, gifts for all the August birthday peeps, pool, then supper and games! Fun!

Today's card is a slider I received in a swap in June. There are tutorials out there for this one, but I haven't personally made one yet. Hmmm. . . guess I need to figure this one out!

This one combined the Flower Shop  and Mixed Bunch stamps  with the Pansy and Blossom punches.

Slider 1 posted

The greeting is from the Express Yourself Hostess set.

Slider 2 posted

When the slider is opened it reveals a phrase from the Label Love!

That's all for now! It's a Liam day, so I'm outta here!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Bat Spinner Card!

Stampin’Up! Bat Spinner Card!

 Good morning! Today is my birthday, and I'm sharing it with my Holiday Catalog Open House stampers, so it should be a fun day!

Today's swap is from a "cards that move" swap I participated in. This is a 'spinner card" because the bat is mounted on dimensionals and a penny that "spins" on the Word Window-punched track when you tip the card from side to side!

Bat spinner 1

 I love the way the creator of this card used a punched circle to make the half-moon mask, then used a Color Spritzer to spritz Basic Black reinker around it. The "Happy Halloween" greeting is from the That's the Ticket stamp set, punched with the Ticket Duo punch.

Bat spinner 2

The bat is a combination of the Owl Builder Punch (I just LOVE this punch!) and the  a circle punch. The eyes and mouth are hand-drawn with the White Gel Pen, and all of the edges are sponged with Whisper White Craft ink!

That's all for now! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
