Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch Tulips!

Stampin’ Up! Pleased As Punch Tulips!

Hey there! Up to now I've been creating cards with just snippets and punched-out images from the Pleased As Punch Designer Paper. The card I'm sharing today uses a full card front with the tulips print! How about that?

Stampin_up_timeless_tulips_carolpaynestamps1

I tied a bow with white 3/8" Metallic-Edge Ribbon:

Stampin_up_timeless_tulips_carolpaynestamps2

I inked the tulip with Flirty Flamingo, stamped-off once, then used the "rock n roll" technique to add an edge of full-strength Flirty Flamingo before stamping and punching with the Tulip Builder Punch. I explain how to do "rock n' roll" in my free downloadable tutorial below!

Stampin_up_timeless_tulips_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I used a masking technique to give the look of the leaves being behind the tulips. I show you how to do this too in my tutorial below!

Stampin’ Up! Fable Friends Duckies!

Stampin’ Up! Fable Friends Duckies!

Hey there! Today is Good Friday, and when I was a little girl I could never understand why it was called Good Friday when it was commemorating the day that Jesus was crucified. How could that day be called good? But I am so thankful that Jesus willingly laid down his life for the whole world, and even me! So today IS Good Friday!

Today I have a cute little card created with the Fable Friends ducklings and Gingham Gala Designer Paper:

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carolpaynestamps1

Aren't these little guys simply the cutest?

The Bitty Blooms Punch Pack is retiring, so you'd better hop over to my online store and order yours today!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Easter Greetings!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Easter Greetings!

Hey there! Easter is next Sunday.  The real meaning of Easter has nothing to do with bunnies, eggs, or candy, it's the celebration of the Resurrection of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. However, bunnies and eggs are spring symbols, and with spring comes new life in the world around us. Christ came to bring us forgiveness of our sins and therefore NEW LIFE, so enjoy thees cute cards today!

First, a fun Best Bunny Bundle card created by Cathy Miller:

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps1

Best Bunny is a clear, photopolymer set, which makes it easy to stamp any of the three faces!

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps2

Sentiment, grass, and tiny bunny also from Best Bunny:

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps3

Next, Jenna Roby also used the Best Bunny Bundle (stamps & punch), pairing it with Twinkle Twinkle Designer paper:

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps4

LOVE the little carrot!

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps6

Carol Slack used the Bunny Builder Punch to punch out the flowers for this cute little basket. Butterfly is from the Well Written Framelits,

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps7

She added Clear Wink of Stella to the blooms for  shine.

Stampin_up_best_bunny_carolpaynestamps8

Tamie Ackerson used four of the five colors in the Gingham Gala 6" x 6" Designer Paper Pack to pair with the Fable Friends Bunny:

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carolpaynestamps2-2

Finally, Emily Tull used All That You Are for a lovely card easily adapted to other occasions:

Stampin_up_all_that_you_are_carolpaynestamps1

She used the ever-lovely Stained Glass Technique, heat embossing the image with white before coloring on the back side with Stampin' Blends Markers.

Stampin’ Up! Ducky Pizza Box!

Stampin’ Up! Ducky Pizza Box!

Hey there! I'm back! If you even noticed I've been gone awhile, I took a little break after my son's wedding. We are in the middle of some bedroom renovation, so something had to give, and blogging is one of the things that gave!

We aren't done yet, but I'm taking some time to get some blog posts scheduled with some cute projects I created before the wedding. Today's project features the cute Momma ducky from Fable Friends on a Mini Pizza Box!

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carollpaynestamps1

This little momma looks ready for anything with her rain slicker and hat! (I think she needs galoshes, but I guess when you're a duck, that really isn't necessary, is it!) I colored her with Stampin' Blends. See the supply list below for the colors I used.

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carolpaynestamps2

These little boxes are just the perfect size for treats, cookies, surprises, and even a gift card!
