Stampin’ Up! One Last Christmas Giftcard Holder with Perfect Blend!

Stampin’ Up! One Last Christmas Giftcard Holder with Perfect Blend!

Hey there! Christmas is almost here! Merry Christmas Eve eve! My kids are all coming in this afternoon/evening and I am in a flurry of last-minute preparations. I still have to get out and grocery shop, with a few last minute additions to the gift list, so this post has to be quick!

I found I one last Christmas Gift Card Holder to show you, this time made with Perfect Blend, Beautifully Barouque Textured Impressions Folder, and the Christmas Ornament punch!

Stampin_up_beautifully_baroque_1

Very sweet and simple. The Small Heart was punched first, then the Christmas Ornament punched around it, then both were used to accent the front.

Stampin_up_beautifully_baroque_2

The slot for the gift card was punched with the Word Window Punch! Genius!

That's all for now! I will be sharing more of my projects for the Stampin' In the New Year Stamp-a-Stack over the next few days, so check in when you can!

Only 11 days left to order your favs from the Holiday Catalog, then the Occasions Catalog starts on January 3rd!

Shop my Online Store anytime: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Joy & Love!

Stampin’ Up! Joy & Love!

Hey there! Still plugging away at my Christmas prep. Seems like every day there's a new hurdle or monkeywrench to overcome, but I'm getting there! Whoever came up with the name "monkeywrench"? What IS THAT???

Well, until someone tells me what a monkeywrench is, I will share this cute little Christmas card I received from my downline, Angie Lisk:

Stampin_up_joy_and_love_1

Angie combined some beautiful designer papers (non-stampin' up!) with the Joy and Love single stamp that is available only until January 31, 2014. After inking the stamp with an Always Artichoke marker so she could omit the "and love" part, Angie stamped the "love" on Very Vanilla cardstock and cut it out with a Deco Labels Framelit. She layered this on an Old Olive Deco Label-cut mat layer. I love her little touches of tiny layered designer paper banners and Linen Thread-accented button!

 

That's all for now! I'm beat and ready to hit the hay!

You can still find and order the Holiday Single Stamps. Click HERE to go to my online store and order!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Wonderful Blessing Card By Sara!

Stampin’ Up! Wonderful Blessing Card By Sara!

Hey there! I love to open Christmas cards when they come in the mail. I love them all; the ones purchased with thougtfullness and love at the store, and family photo cards, but I especially love the hand-stamped ones I receive from my lovely stamping friends! Today's card was created by Sara Harris:

Stampin_up_wonderful_blessings_1

Sara used some new and some retired Stampin' Up! product for her unique layout. It has a very vintage-y feel! I won't even try to attempt to name the retired products she used, but I can tell you she used Crumb Cake cardstock for her card base and the Wonderful Blessing single stamp (#134779 $8.95) for her focal image:

Stampin_up_wonderful_blessings_2

I love this z-folded presentation!

Stampin_up_wonderful_blessings_3

As best I can tell (I haven't had time to contact Sara to ask for the answer to this question) Sara clear heat-embossed the image on Crumb Cake cardstock, then either sponged it with Illuminate Glimmer ink or retired Shimmer Paint. As a final touch she sponged the "peace on earth" phrase from the stamp with what I believe is retired Riding Hood Red ink and added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel.

I love this card!

The stamps on the Single Stamps flyer will only be available until January 31, 2014, so don't delay ordering!

That's all for now! I have another card from a stamping friend to show you tomorrow, this time one from my new downline, Angie!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Santa’s List!

Stampin’ Up! Santa’s List!

Hey there! I managed to get my swap in the mail before the deadline to mail Priority, then spent the rest of the stamping day working on the projects to mail out to the Online Ordering customers who placed orders to choose Christmas Catch-Up projects. I'm almost done, which is a good thing, considering I still have a bit more shopping, wrapping, cleaning, and decorating to do before my family starts arriving next week! Whew! It's going to be close, but I have a list, so I'm chipping  away on it every day!

I thought about saving these swaps for this coming Sunday, but since we are just barely a week away from Christmas Day, I decided I'd better go ahead and share these with you. These all were created using the Santa's List set in the Holiday Catalog:

Stampin_up_santas_list_1

Kathy Morgan used a Christmas Tagables Photopolymer stamp for ther "do not open .. " greeting on the front.

Stampin_up_santas_list_2

Next, Linda Pagel chose to make her gift card holder an easel card:

Stampin_up_santas_list_easel_1

 

Stampin_up_santas_list_easel_2

And last, Lorraine Duran used a Window Frame Framelit and a Very Merry Tags stamp along with Santa's list for her creation:

Stampin_up_santas_list_window_frames_1

The pocket for the giftcard opens up matchbook-style:

Stampin_up_santas_list_window_frame_2

That's all for now! If you have procrastinated and haven't ordered Santa's List yet, there's still time! You can click HERE to shop in my Online Store. While you are there you can also shop the Clearance Rack, the Annual Catalog, and the latest Weekly Deals, which are DOUBLE the number of deals than usual!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Print Festive Flurry Tag!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Print Festive Flurry Tag!

Hey there! A couple of days ago my friend and downline, Martha Swift, came by and brought me this sweet gift with a gorgeous tag:
Stampin_up_festive_flurry_tag_1

She used  Whisper White for her card base, then embossed a piece of Silver Foil paper with the Pretty Print Textured Impresssions Folder. She added snowflakes that she stamped with Encore Metallic Silver ink on Tempting Turquoise cardstock and a Silver Glimmer Paper snowflake, all cut out with the Festive Flurry Framelits! She used the 1/8" Silver Ribbon to tie her tag/card/gift card holder together!

Inside:

Stampin_up_festive_flurry_tag_3Martha created a little pocket for her greeting insert to slip inside. She stamped it with the Encore Metallic Silver ink. The "Christmas Wishes" was stamped with Tempting Turquoise ink.

You can find all the supplies to make this cute little tag, including the Whisper White and Tempting Turquoise cardstock, in my Online Store HERE
