Tags & Tidings Tags!

Posted on November 22, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there and Happy Thanksgiving Day! Take time to reflect on what's really important in life and all of your blessings!

Today I have a tag set created with the Tags & Tidings Bundle, Sweetly Stitched Framelits, and Festive Farmhouse Designer Paper:

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the tags all at once on a sheet of Wood Textures Designer Paper with Versamark ink, then heat embossing with white powder. The Stamparatus lets me stamp more than once to make sure there is plenty of ink transferred and to accurately stamp a second (or third!) time.

I cut all 16 tags with the Christmas Tags Thinlets Die ALL AT THE SAME TIME!

I cut the trees with two Sweetly Stitched Framelits from a 2" x 2 1/4" piece of Old Olive so I could use both the positive and the negative on my tags.

I punched four 2" x 3" pieces of Festive Farmhouse Designer Paper with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch for the tag base, then went to work!

I tied snippets of Cherry Cobbler 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon for accent.

I love the look of the white-embossed images on the woodgrain paper!

Darling!

I love the varied shapes of these tags!

Each tag has it's own "to: from:" on the back, also from the Tags & Tidings Bundle!

Here's your shopping list. If you place your order today you should have your supplies to start making your tags in about a week!

Stampin’ Up! Tags & Tidings with Farmhouse Christmas!

Posted on November 21, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm continuing to play with the Tags & Tidings bundle and I decided to add in the adorable little truck from the Farmhouse Christmas set!

I stamped the Tags & Tidings image with Whisper White Craft ink on the Crumb Cake layer. While the craft ink dried, I stamped the Farmhouse Christmas truck with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Watercolor Paper, then colored with my Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers. I cut it out with a Festive Farmhouse Framelit, then used the "slope" thinlet, also from the Festive Farmhouse dies, to cut the Sparkle Glimmer Paper to create the "snow".

Coloring inside the super-thin lines of the "for you" image requires a very light touch with the brush tip of the Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend.

Inside I used my favorite sentiment from Farmhouse Christmas!

Stampin’ Up! Tags & Tidings!

Posted on November 20, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Well, the annual November cold/sinus infection has struck again. I'm pretty miserable right now. I started coming down with it on Sunday afternoon, and now my head is stuffed and my teeth hurt! I guess I'll have to get my self to the dr soon!

I did pull myself together yesterday and stamped this card with the Tags & Tidings Bundle. Several of the more popular framelits that are bundled with stamps in the Holiday Catalog are selling out or are sold out already, so I'm playing with less-well-know-but-still pretty awesome bundles now!

This card would be perfect for the beginner or the casual stamper; east to create a bunch just in time to mail out for Christmas cards!

After stamping the entire Tags & Tidings image (there's just one BIG image with all of the little tags on it) with Versamark, I sprinkled with White Stampin' Emboss Powder and then melted the powder with my Heat Tool. I then stamped the image again with Cherry Cobbler ink on Whisper White and then cut it out with the Christmas Tags Thinlets Die. The stamp set alone is $17.00 and the thinlet is $28.00. Bundled together they are 10% off at $40.50, but if you don't have a Big Shot and don't mind fussy-cutting you could easily cut most of the tags with Paper Snips. The thinlet even cuts the holes in most of these darling little tags for you!

Inside I used a sentiment from the Farmhouse Christmas stamp set. An easy-peasy card!

Here's your shopping list for today:

Tags & Tidings Photopolymer Bundle [149986]	Cherry Cobbler 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [119685]	Cherry Cobbler Classic Stampin' Pad [147083]
Crumb Cake 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [120953]	Versamark Pad [102283]	Embossing Buddy [103083]

Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop November 2018 Color Challenge!

Posted on November 14, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there and welcome to the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop for November 2018!

Our November theme is a color challenge:

My first thought with these colors was "valentines", but when I scanned my Holiday catalog sets I found for some inexplicable reason Candy Cane Season was still un-inked!

I started with a Merry Merlot 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" card base, then added a 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" layer of Smoky Slate. I discovered I had just a few slivers of Silver Foil in my stash (gasp! But more is arriving tomorrow if the snow we're getting tonight doesn't delay delivery), so I fudged the silver with Smoky Slate.

I added another layer of Merry Merlot 5 1/4" x 4" before adding the Whisper White layer stamped with the Powder Pink candy cane "hearts". Candy Cane Season is photopolymer, so it was easy to stamp accurately.

Can I just say I think Merry Merlot is the PERFECT burgundy color? We've had a couple of different versions of this color in the past (Bravo Burgundy comes to mind), but they were either too brown, too dull, too SOMETHING that just wasn't "it". Merry Merlot, however, IS IT!!!

I did manage to add a splash of Silver Foil with the Candy Cane Builder Punch, which is bundled with Candy Cane Season to save 10%. I stamped the 1 3/4" x 3 1/4" white layer with the "HO!HO!HO! image and Smoky Slate ink. The Merry Merlot layer behind it is 1 7/8" x 3 3/8".

Inside sentiment:

And the envelope. Candy Cane Season is an "all inclusive" set!

Candy Cane Season Photopolymer Bundle [149927]	Merry Merlot 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [146979]	Merry Merlot Classic Stampin' Pad [147112]
Smoky Slate 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [131202]	Smoky Slate Classic Stampin' Pad [147113]	Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [100730]

Stampin’ Up! Alpine Adventure Christmas Greetings!

Posted on November 13, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog goodies are selling fast; some are already sold out:

150095: Santa’s Workshop Cards You Can Make It Bundle
147905: Santa's Workshop Memories & More Card Pack
147815: Santa's Workshop Memories & More Cards & Envelopes
147816: Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper
147890: Festive Farmhouse Elements
147811: Santa’s Workshop Enamel Elements

White Velvet Sheets from the Snowflake Showcase are also sold out, so you NEED TO PLACE YOUR Holiday Catalog ORDER NOW!

Because some items are gone or are on back order, such as Merry Merlot/Copper 5/8" Reversible Ribbon, and Joyous Noel 6" x 6" Glimmer Paper, I had to change some of my projects for upcoming classes! I created today's project for that very reason!

Today's card was inspired by a swap from OnStage one of my team members received, so I don't have the creator's name. I used the Alpine Adventure Bundle to create this:

Do you see a Christmas tree?

I used the Stamparatus to line up each image using either Coastal Cabana, Shaded Spruce, or Real Red to build the tree. I layered onto a piece of Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper.

I added sparkle to the snowflake "star" with a Frosted & Clear Epoxy Droplet. The bow was cut with an Alpine Sports Thinlets Die, as was the sled at the bottom.

It was easy to get perfect placement of the images by using the Stamparatus! I know where each one will be before I even add any ink!

Inside I stamped the snowshoe and the sled with Soft Suede ink.

Today's shopping list:

Alpine Adventure Photopolymer Bundle [149919]	Coastal Cabana 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [131297]	Coastal Cabana Classic Stampin' Pad [147097]
Festive Farmhouse 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 Cm) Designer Series Paper [147820]	Real Red 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [102482]	Real Red Classic Stampin' Pad [147084]
