Stampin’ Up! Paisleys & Posies For An October Class!

Posted on September 24, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! If all goes as planned, I hope to hold a Paisleys & Posies class on Friday, October 14th at my house. Class attendees will pre-pay for the class so I can order the Paisleys & Posies Bundle and the Petals & Paisleys Specialty Designer Paper for each of them before class so they will have their own stamps to use during the session.

Today's card uses the Watercolor Resist technique:

The Paisleys & Posies images are embossed on Watercolor Paper with clear embossing powder, then washed over with Mint Macaron, Delightful Dijon, and Rich Razzleberry using an AquaPainter.

Rich Razzleberry ribbon from teh 3/8" Ribbon Trio Pack, a Delicate White Doily, snippets of Petals & Paisleys Specialty paper, and Copper Metallic Thread combine to create a pleasing hodgepodge of embellishment.

The emboss-resist technique combined with watercoloring with the AquaPainter is easy-peasy! I used Tear & Tape Adhesive to adhere after watercoloring as the dampness of the paper warps it a bit.

Inside I used the same Watercolor Resist technique, but I stamped the sentiment with Night of Navy Classic ink instead of heat-embossing. This resulted in the ink blurring a bit, so I'm thinking I will need to work on an alternate inside for class.

Stampin! Up! Paisleys & Posies Emboss Resist CASE!

Posted on September 22, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! While browsing the Holiday Catalog I found a sample on page 46 using Paisleys & Posies stamps I just had to CASE. In case you are not familiar with the term, CASE stands for Copy And Share Everything. Stampin' Up! puts loads of samples in all of their catalogs for the express purpose to inspire you and for you to copy, aka CASE!

It was easy to make this card because Stampin' Up! listed all of the supplies used in the "You Can Make It" section right beside the sample! I made two versions. Can you see the subtle differences?

I switched out the Delightful Dijon ink for Crushed Curry, which is a little brighter and cheerier.

After heat-embossing the paisley and medallion images with clear powder on Shimmery White card stock, I used a Sponge Brayer to roll Crushed Curry ink, then used a second sponge brayer to roll on Rich Razzleberry. After I achieved the color intensity I wanted, I rubbed it with a Kleenex to remove the excess ink on the embossing that would never have dried.

It was easy to finish this card with all of the sentiments and additional images in the Paisleys & Posies set!

To order your supplies to CASE my CASE, go to my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Paisleys & Posies Photopolymer Stamp Set [142196] $21.00	Embossing Buddy [103083] $6.00	Versamark Pad [102283] $8.50	Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder [109130] $5.00

Stampin’ Up! Mixed Borders!

Posted on June 16, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card is another with the Bleach Technique. I love it when I'm playing with a technique and the ideas just keep rollin'!

For today's card I started by bleach stamping Soft Sky card stock with Touches of Texture stamps to get a Very Vanilla color. After the bleach finished developing and dried, I stamped the Definitely Dahlia Background with Versamark in the upper right corner.

I used the new Mixed Borders to stamp the Very Vanilla greeting banner that I had punched with the Banner Triple Punch. I used Basic Black Archival ink for the leaves, then stamped the greeting with Pool Party. The Mixed Borders set leaves a space within the border so you can stamp the words in it! I tied a bit of new Basic Black Solid Baker's Twine around the banner in a knot.

Hopefully you can see the Versamark-stamped Definitely Dahlia better in this picture:

Inside I stamped the dahlia again with Pool Party and used a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to ink up just part of a stamp from One Big Meaning.

Stampin’ Up! Touches of Texture!

Posted on June 13, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I didn't get a chance to stamp all weekend, can you believe it?

So here I am on Monday morning working on some projects due this week, the first being today's blog post! After playing with bleach last week, I wanted to try different colors of card stock. Sweet Sugarplum, a new In Color, combined with Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White is super-duper!

I used the delicate spray of blooms from Touches of Texture, "inking" with bleach. After letting the bleach develop, I stamped a few Touches of Texture dragonflies, with Sweet Sugarplum, embossing with the Brick Wall Folder.

The bleach brought out a creamy white!

Simply pour a little bleach carefully onto a couple of folded paper towels on a plate, enough to wet the towels, but no puddles.

I white heat-embossed a phrase from Better Together on vellum, cutting with the banner framelit in the Gift Card Envelope & Trims Thinlets. I rolled up a couple of glue dots to hide behind the "J" in just and the "e" in note to adhere to the card front under the Sweet Sugar Plum 3/8" Ruched Ribbon.

Inside I used a Greatest Greetings phrase and more dragonflies, lining the envelope with Playful Palette Designer Series Paper.
