Stampin’ Up! Trim the Tree and Cheerful Christmas!

Stampin’ Up! Trim the Tree and Cheerful Christmas!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card was created before the "big computer crash". I am finally starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel of sorting, deleting, and uploading to Dropbox!

I used the Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper Stack and the Cheerful Christmas stamp set:

Stampin_up_cheerful_christmas_2

When the card opens:

Stampin_up_cheerful_christmas_1

Here's the supply list for this card. When I get the class handout made for this one I will add some tips for cutting and folding the front of this double gate-fold card.

You can purchase all the supplies to make this in my online store:

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Founder’s Circle Style!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! AS you are reading this I am on my way home from the Founder's Circle Retreat. I'm sorry it's over, but glad to be going home!

For my swap shares today I took some pics of display samples brought to Founder's by demonstrators so I have no idea who the creators are.

First, a gorgeous but easy card with For All Things from the Holiday Catalog:

Stampin_up_for_all_things_1

For All Things again, but with a cool fold:

Stampin_up_for_all_things_2

A merge of Wondrous Wreath with Fall Fest:

Stampin_up_wondrous_wreath_1

I am pretty sure this 12 x 12 Halloween framed art was made by Glenda Travelstead:

Stampin_up_halloween

Festival of Trees:

Stampin_up_founders_circle_double_gate_fold_1

Festival of Trees framed:

Stampin_up_festival_of_trees_frame

A Petite Cafe bag from the Holiday Catalog with a punched tree (the punch matches the Festival of Trees set!)

Stampin_up_founders_circle_petite_cafe_bag

That's all for now. I will be home soon! yay! Be sure to come back and see more Founder's Circle stuff tomorrow!

Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Bright & Beautiful 3-D Star!

Stampin’ Up! Bright & Beautiful 3-D Star!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! The first session of the Punch & Technique/Christmas Card Class starts this afternoon! yay! I can't wait to spend time with my stampin' friends!

Today's project is again made with the Bright & Beautiful set and the Star Framelits:

Stampin_up_brght_and_beautiful_3D_ornament_1

I started with three flat ornaments, gluing each layer together with Tombow Adhesive. When dry, I scored each ornament down the center on the backside, gently folded toward the front along the score line, then glued all three together, inserting the 1/8" Silver Taffeta Ribbon in the middle before finishing the gluing.

Stampin_up_bright_and_beautiful_3D_ornament_2

You can view the flat ornament and supply list I posted a few weeks ago HERE.

NOTE: The Bright & Beautiful bundle of stamps and framelits deal expired on August 31st. HOWEVER, you CAN still order the Bright & Beautiful stamp set (wood-mount #135026 $32.95, or clear-mount #135029 $24.95) and the Star Framelits (#133723 $26.95) !

When you are ready to order you, click here to go to my online store:

That's all for now! I still have a little bit of prep for class this afternoon, so I've got to fly!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Card Thinlets Dies!

Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Card Thinlets Dies!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Tuesday and a Liam Day! yay!

Here's another card we will make at my Christmas Card Class this week using the Snowflake Card Thinlets Dies:

Stampin_up_snowfalke_thinlet_1 - Copy

The glitz and glam on this card makes it really hard to show you just how gorgeous it is! I used Silver Foil paper cut with the snowflake thinlet die, then added an All is Calm Snowflake Embellishment and a Rhinestone to the center. I cut scrap cardstock with the same snowflake die, then used the negative from cutting (the hole after the snowflake is removed) to sponge Silver Encore Metallic ink on the Night of Navy card base. Frosted Sequins and more Rhinestones add to the "snowstorm" effect.

Stampin_up_snowflake_thinlet_2 - Copy

Flipping the snowflake center shows you the "for you" 1" Circle-punched greeting from the Letterpress Winter photopolymer set, layered on a silver foil-punched 1 3/4" Scallop Circle.

Stampin_up_snowflake_thinlet_3 - Copy

The card fully opens to reveal sentiments from the And Many More  and Watercolor Winter Too photopolymer sets with more silver-sponged snowflakes on the Whisper White.
