Stampin’ Up! Luscious Layers Class!

Posted on June 13, 2013 by Carol Payne

Quick post today! Wanted to show you a sample from my upcoming class, Luscious Layers!

It's a new style of class, where you will make as many cards you want for $2 each, no limit!

I'm still working on my designs, but here's a sample from the Stampin' Share in Fiji by Sharon Armstrong, where I got this neat idea!

I know, crummy photography, but you get the idea!

We will be using punches, stamps, and embossing folders to create cards with lots of layers and texture! Fun and EASY!!!

Well, I've got to get busy! It's much cooler here today, easier on the AC!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! “Golden Ticket” Day!

Posted on May 31, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! The cool thing about today, and the MAJOR difference between this day and the Golden Tickets in the Willy Wonka movie is that EVERYONE can participate, you don't have to just wish you would find a ticket!

Starting today at Noon, Mountain Time, you will be able to order from BOTH the retiring and the NEW catalogs AND the Occasions seasonal catalog! Yippee!!!!!!

While we are "patiently" waiting for noon, here's a few more pics from the virtual swap on Facebook, this time with a fabulous new Hostess Set, Simply Sketched:

Crisp Cantaloupe is the perfect base color for this card. The Jet Black StazOn stamped greeting is from another superb new Hostess Set, Express Yourself!

Definition of Hostess Set: a stamp set you can only purchase when you are a hostess with at least $150 in sales for you party or personal order. Only hostesses are allowed to purchase these exclusive sets with the Hostess Dollars awarded to them when their party is closed and submitted.

How can you be a Hostess? Book a party, stamp camp, or private class with me! Or go to my Online Store through the "Shop Now" button in the upper left corner of this blog to place an order of at least $150.

Live out of state or out of my area? NO PROBLEM! I can ship you a "party in a box" for however many guests you plan to assemble. Contact me, and after we confer about the type of projects you want to make, I will send you all the supplies needed to complete the projects, with instructions. If you have Skype, I can even Skype into your get-together to demonstrate for you and take orders!

Have questions? Just contact me at carol@carolpaynestamps.com!

Here's more Simply Sketched samples:

Stamped & colored on Watercolor Paper.

The Whisper White Organza Ribbon was dyed with the Strawberry Slush ink refill!

LOVE the Framed Tulips Textured Impressions Folder use here and the stamping &n coloring on the envelope!

Spotlighting technique.

This final sample incorporates the Modern Mosaic folder with a phrase from My Friend. Classic black & white with splashes of Strawberry Slush! Yummy!

That's all for now! Noon will be here before we know it!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Countdown to the NEW Catalog Day#4, Wildflower Meadow!

Posted on May 30, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Just one more day! ONE? Can you stand it?

Tomorrow is like a GOLDEN TICKET DAY!

Why, you ask?

Because tomorrow is a FIRST in the 25-year history of Stampin’ Up!

Tomorrow, ONLY, May 31, 2013 beginning at Noon Mountain Time, (translate that time to your own time zone. For me in the Central Time zone that translates to 1 p.m.!) and lasting until midnight Mountain Time (1 a.m. for me) you will be able to order from THREE CATALOGS: the retiring 2012-2013 Annual Catalog, the 2013 Occasions seasonal catalog, AND the NEW 2013-2014 Annual Catalog! AMAZING!

Online Ordering will be down from midnight, May 31, till noon Mountain Time, at which time all the item codes will be turned on and we are off!!!!!!

You can contact me direct to place your order, but you can also place your order through my Online Store just by clicking on the “Shop Now” button in the upper left corner of this blog. You will be prompted to set up an account and the order will be shipped direct to you!

If your order total reaches $150 or more (before shipping and sales tax is added in), you will also be eligible to choose Hostess Benefits of at least $25 free! Tomorrow only you will be able to choose your free from any of the three catalogs, even choosing from the Hostess Exclusive stamp sets from all three catalogs! WOW!

While we are waiting for tomorrow, I have more virtual swaps to share with you, using Wildflower Meadow stamps and Textured Impressions Folder!

This beauty was stamped with the Illuminate Glimmer Watermark Stampin’ Pad, which IS carrying over into the New catalog!

Love the Stripe embossed background cut with an Oval Collection Framelit to “frame” the markered Wildflower Meadow stamp!

Another markered beauty! This one has the envelope generation-stamped to achieve the lighter-stamped look!

New In-Color Coastal Cabana was brayered onto the folder before the paper was inserted for this one! Label Love stamp was punched with the Artisan Label punch! The Natural 7/16″ Trim is also carrying over!

Another marker sensation, this time was probably spritzed with water before stamping to give it the watercolor look!

This final one I am CASEING for my New Catalog Open House on Saturday! It’s a fantastic example of “spotlighting” by my good friend Patsy Waggoner!

That’s all for today! I’ll be back in the morning for a little more swap love while we wait for OEX to open at noon MT!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Oh, and I almost forgot, TODAY is the last day to sign up as a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator to get the extra $30 in your Starter Kit!
