Stampers Dozen Blog Hop May 2019 Saying Goodbye to Retiring Products!

Hey there! It's time for the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop!

970616_10152216696390070_1901389811_n

Our May theme is "Saying Goodbye to Retiring Products". I used "A Little Wild" stamps with matching Little Loves Framelits today. Both are retiring on June 3rd.

My color palette: Early Espresso and Crumb Cake,  perfect for this little bear cub!

Stampin_up_a_little_wild_carolpaynestamps2

The die cuts a perfect tag, complete with keyhole to tie a bit of Burlap ribbon thread!

I added direct-to-inkpad sponging along the edges for the distressed look.

Stampin’ Up! Beach Happy!

Stampin’ Up! Beach Happy!

Hey there! Today I want to share with you a fun card I created with the Beach Happy stamp set, Gingham Gala 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper, and Celebrate You Dies. All are retiring on June 3rd, so I need to use them or lose them! lol!

I created two very similar-yet-different cards, all with the same supplies. Which one do you like the best?

Stampin_up_beach_happy_carolpaynestamps1

Stamping directly on the designer paper helped these cards come together in a snap!

Stampin_up_beach_happy_carolpaynestamps2

After cutting "celebrate" from both Basic Black and So Saffron card stock (I meant to use Daffodil Delight, but grabbed So Saffron instead!) I layered them with liquid glue before bending the word slightly and attaching with more liquid glue.

Stampin_up_beach_happy_carolpaynestamps3

I love this sentiment and images, all from Beach Happy.

Stampin’ Up! Lots of Happy In the Wild Card!

Stampin’ Up! Lots of Happy In the Wild Card!

Hey there! A few weeks ago a friend asked me to create a card for her dear friend that was moving out-of-state and taking her zebra with her!

How often do you get a card request like that?

I used a retired set, In The Wild. It has a 2003 copywrite!

S-l1600

The card requested also needed to be larger than the regular 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" I normally make, so I made the card 5 1/2" x 7:

Stampin_up_lots_of_happy_card_kit_carolpaynestamps1

I used Glossy card stock, rubbing first with my embossing buddy, then stamping the zebra repeatedly with Versamark. After sprinkling all of the zebras with clear embossing powder, I heated them with my heat tool. I used a Sponge Brayer to roll Crushed Curry ink all over. I burnished (rubbed) the piece with a tissue to remove excess ink and to make the zebras "pop". I then sponged the edges and lightly over the piece with Tuxedo Black ink for a distressed look.

Stampin_up_lots_of_happy_carolpaynestamps2

After stamping the zebra on a rectangle of Whisper White with Tuxedo Black ink, I added a sentiment from the Lots of Happy Card Kit and sponged with both Crushed Curry and black ink. I stamped the "FRIEND" from the Bouquet Blooms set.

Stampin_up_lots_of_happy_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I used another sentiment from Lots of Happy:

Stampin_up_lots_of_happy_carolpaynestamps4

I used the Motion Stamping technique, continuing to stamp multiple times in a row without re-inking the stamp, to get the look of a running zebra.

Stampin_up_lots_of_happy_carolpaynestamps5

I used the Envelope Punch Board, which is retiring, to create a custom envelope using some retired black-and-white designer paper. This was a fun card to make!

Stampin’ Up! Fable Friends Darling Baby!

Stampin’ Up! Fable Friends Darling Baby!

Hey there! Today may be April Fool's Day, but the card I'm sharing today is not a joke! The Fable Friends stamp set contains four adorable phrases to pair with the Beatrix Potter-like images, including the "darling baby" phrase, so I made a darling baby card!

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carolpaynestamps1

I used a simple masking technique with a Post-it Note to stamp the "darling baby" phrase behind the bunny. I have provided an instruction handout a little farther down in this post to show you how.  I colored the bunny with Stampin' Blends.

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carolpaynestamps2

I sponged just about everything with Crumb Cake ink for a soft, vintage look.

Stampin_up_fable_friends_carolpaynestamps3

I used a phrase from Needle & Thread inside and stamped some dots using an image from Incredible Like You to continue the theme from the designer paper I used on the front.

Stampin’ Up! Strong & Beautiful for Mother’s Day!

Stampin’ Up! Strong & Beautiful for Mother’s Day!

Hey there! Today I am sharing a Mother's Day card. It's always good to have those cards ready in advance  because inspiration doesn't always strike when we need it, does it?

I used by Stamparatus to stamp "Happy Mother's Day" from the Occasions Catalog set, Strong & Beautiful, eight times on the front layer. The Stamparatus comes in handy any time you need to stamp repetitively!

Stampin_up_climbing_roses_carolpaynestamps1

I used a Rose Trellis framelit to cut out two roses, one from Pear Pizzazz  and another from Powder Pink. I cut away the pink leaves, then used a Fine Tip Glue Pen to adhere the bloom over the Pear Pizzazz one. I also used Fine Tip Glue to adhere the entire piece to the card.

Stampin_up_strong_and_beautiful_carolpaynestamps2

I used more Rose Trellis thinlits to cut the leaves for the corners.

Stampin_up_strong_and_beautiful_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I stamped another sentiment from Strong & Beautiful. The blooms in the bottom corner are from the Climbing Roses set. I colored the blooms with my Light Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blend.

I don't have my mom anymore, but hope this will help you have one ready for your's.

I colored this adorable little fellow with my Stampin' Blends Markers. See my project supply list for the specific colors!
