Stampin’ Up! Splendid Day Suite!

Stampin’ Up! Splendid Day Suite!

Hey there! A few weeks ago Stampin' Up! hosted an event for demonstrators called "Creativity Now". It was a stamping-only online event. Demonstrators were able to pre-order a suite of products, Splendid Day, to "stamp-along" with the presenters during the four hour event. A few of my registered team members gathered at my house to stamp-along with me and we had so much fun! I know many other demonstrators have already shared the projects, but I decided to share mine too just in case you missed the rest!

This first card was a fun and easy technique, creating a "watercolor" background with Light and Dark Pool Party and Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends! We stamped the bees in Pool Party and Fresh Freesia directly on the "watercolor", then added it to a piece of the beautiful Splendid Day Designer Paper that had been adhered to the Soft Sea Foam card base. Soft Sea Foam die cuts, from the Splendid Stems Dies, were tucked behind the greeting banner stamped with Fresh Freesia ink.  A few inches of Soft Sea Foam 3/8" Seam Binding Ribbon were folded in half to leave the ends peeking out from behind the greeting banner as well. This card will make a perfect wedding card!

Stampin_up_splendid_thoughts_carolpaynestamps1

We created this background with Calypso Coral card stock, embossed with the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder, then added white craft ink with a Blending Brush. We stamped some foliage on Soft Sea Foam and Petal Pink card stock with black ink, cut them out with Splendid Stems dies in addition to Basic White card stock with some of the same dies. I cut the designer paper with another Splendid Stems die and adhered to the card front with dimensionals. I then adhered the die cuts with liquid glue and glue dots. You could also use Adhesive Sheets to adhere. I wrapped the ribbon around the Calypso Coral layer to tie in a bow. I adhered the whole layer to the Basic White Thick card base with dimensionals. I stamped the greeting with black ink and hand-cut to add to the front of the designer paper "flower pot".

For this card we created our own background paper by heat embossing with white powder the irregular "dots" with white powder. We cut three of the same die cut from three different designs of the Splendid Day Specialty paper, then added with tiny dots of liquid glue. I decided to leave this card with no greeting so I could use it for any occasion!

Stampin_up_splendid_thoughts_carolpaynestamps3

For this final card we stamped the leaves on the Petal Pink card base with Petal Pink ink, then layered with the die-cut pieces, the die-cut greeting, and ribbon.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Faux Bleach!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Faux Bleach!

Hey there! Today's card has been rolling around in my head ever since I first saw the Sun Prints Suite in the new Annual Catalog. Several of the Nature's Prints Designer Paper pages look like bleached paper. I know they are called "Sun Prints" because of the similarity (and knowing Stampin' Up! they probably used the real deal!) to the light-sensitive paper used to create "sun prints" of leaves, flowers, shells, etc. I somehow missed that craze growing up, but some of my team members who are just 10 years younger than me have spoken fondly of playing with this technique in art class in Junior High.

Here's my creation with the "faux bleach" technique:

Stampin_up_natures_prints_white_craft_carolpaynestamps1

To achieve the faux bleach look without using bleach, I simply inked my image with white craft ink, stamped on the Night of Navy card stock, and let it air dry.

To stamp the greeting from Nature's Prints I stamped with white craft ink then sprinkled with white embossing powder and heated with my heat tool. I then cut with a Nature's Prints label die. I wrapped the "faux bleach layer with Starry Sky 1/8" Metallic Woven Ribbon, and added a pearl-y Elegant Faceted Gem. I cut another label with the same die from white card stock, cut it in half lengthwise, and the added it evenly to the back of the greeting label before adding it and the focal image layer to the layer of Sun Prints designer paper I had already added to the card front.

I love the little beveled line all around the die-cut label! Gives it such a finished, polished look!

Stampin_up_natures_prints_white_craft_carolpaynestamps2

Inside I stamped everything, including the sentiment from Happiness Abounds, with Night of Navy ink.

Stampin_up_natures_prints_white_craft_carolpaynestamps3

I hope you like my "faux bleach" card. I hope to get a chance to do some real bleach stamping soon!

Stampin’ Up! Magenta Madness Flowers of Friendship!

Stampin’ Up! Magenta Madness Flowers of Friendship!

Hey there! Today I have a quick and easy card to share with you that I created with the Flowers of Friendship stamp set and Abstract Beauty 4" x  6" Designer Paper. Flowers of Friendship is carrying over to the new Annual Catalog, which debuts for you on May 3rd. Abstract Beauty Designer Paper is from the Jan/June Mini Catalog and is only available till June 30th, or while supplies last.

I used Magenta Madness card stock and ink, which is a retiring In Color. As of this blog post writing neither one had sold out yet, but I am crossing off items from my master list every day, so anything on the Last Chance Retiring List that you are wanting you had better place your order ASAP because especially the retiring In Color products won't last much longer!

Stampin_up_abstract_beauty_flowers_of_friendship_carolpaynestamps1

The Abstract Beauty designer paper in the background is cut 3" x 4 for the bottom floral layer, and the top layer is 2 1/4" x 4. The top layer is the flip side of the bottom layer. After stamping the blossom spray on a 2" x 4" Basic White rectangle with Tuxedo Black ink, I colored the blooms with a Blender Pen and the ink from the squeezed lid of the Magenta Madness ink pad. I colored the leaves with the same Blender Pen (after cleaning the tip with a few swipes on scrap paper) and Just Jade ink, which is another retiring In Color. I adhered the colored layer to a 2 1/8" x 4 1/8" mat of Magenta Madness card stock. I adhered it to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals after tying 8 inches of White 3/8" Glittered Organdy Ribbon in a knot around both layers. I added retiring 2021-2023 In Color Jewels for some sparkle.

Stampin_up_abstract_beauty_flowers_of_friendship_carolpaynestamps2

Before adhering the matted layer to the front I also stamped a greeting from Flowers of Friendship with black ink.

Stampin_up_abstract_beauty_flowers_of_friendship_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I stamped another Flowers of Friendship sentiment with black ink and lines of tiny blooms from the same set with Magenta Madness ink.

Stampin’ Up! Boughs & Blossoms Thank You!

Stampin’ Up! Boughs & Blossoms Thank You!

Hey there! I played with the Boughs & Blossoms stamp/punch bundle again. I went a completely different direction with this card from the one I CASED from the catalog. I will post my first card with this bundle at the bottom of my post.

Stampin_up_boughs_&_blossoms_carolpaynestamps1

I inked the blossoms with Pale Papaya ink, then used a sponge dauber to add Flirty Flamingo ink to the centers before stamping on Basic White. After I cut all three blossoms with Paper Snips, I sponged the edges with Flirty Flamingo too. You can't see it in the picture but I added Clear Wink of Stella to the centers. I popped the center one up with dimensionals, and added a few Genial Gems (retiring) for some pops of shine.

Stampin_up_boughs_&_blossoms_carolpaynestamps2

I punched Soft Sea Foam card stock with the Bough Punch and slid them under the blossoms with liquid glue. I stamped "thank you" with Soft Succulent ink.

Stampin_up_boughs_&_blossoms_carolpaynestamps4

I created my background layer by stamping the same bloom with only Pale Papaya ink on a Pale Papaya side of New Horizons Designer Paper.

Stampin_up_boughs_&_blossoms_carolpaynestamps5

I stamped another bloom  inside, added a 1/2" strip of the New Horizons paper, then left the rest blank for a future personal note. I also stamped the envelope with the Pale Papaya/Flirty Flamingo blooms.
