Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Wishes Easel!

Posted on September 5, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I'm sharing another card with the Snowflake Splendor Suite! You know I can't go very long without using the easel fold, so of course, today's card is that!

The So Many Snowflakes dies cut 8 different snowflake sizes and styles. They look awesome over this print from the Snowflake Splendor Designer paper! I added a Snowflake Sequin to the centers of each.

I cut the greeting with one of the smaller Ornate Layers Dies:

I stamped and punched the easel-stop with the Label Me Fancy Punch.

I surrounded the greeting with Misty Moonlight snowflakes.

Dimensions for the easel:

Seaside Spray base: 4 1/4" x 11", scored & folded at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2"

Seaside Spray easel layer: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" easel stop mat: scrap

Snowflake Splendor layer: 4" x 5 1/4"

Whisper White for greeting label: 3" x 4 1/4", to cut snowflakes: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2", inside layer: 4" x 5 1/4" easel stop: scrap

Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog Previews!

Posted on August 14, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Welcome to the August Stampers Dozen Blog Hop, "Holiday Catalog Previews"!

I'm featuring a "must-have" from the Holiday Catalog, Snow Wonder!

A card on page 43 with In The Pines was my inspiration. I debated getting In the Pines because I love how versatile trees are for Christmas, winter, and masculine cards, but decided to focus on Snow Wonder for my pine tree "fix" this year!

I especially wanted to recreate the focal image with the Gold Hoops Embellishment:

The Soft Suede background was stamped tone-on-tone and sponged with Soft Suede ink!

This card is a one-bundle card, all from the Snow Wonder Bundle!

I'm a newbie at making videos, but here it is!

Stampin’ Up! To A Wild Rose with Magic!

Posted on August 13, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! For today's creation I combined To A Wild Rose, Wild Rose Dies, and new Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper from the Holiday Catalog. Magic in This Night is Halloween on one side with gorgeous dark and elegant designs on the other. I'm not a big Halloween girl, but I will be using those gorgeous designs for fall!

I stamped the rose with Tuxedo Black Memento ink then colored with both the Light and Dark Cajun Craze Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers to coordinate with the blooms in the Magic Is The Night Designer Series Paper. I added shimmer with a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

I heat embossed "hello" with gold powder on another Magic In This Night print that I cut with another Wild Rose die. I backed the greeting label with a piece of Basic Black card stock that I cut with the same Wild Rose die and then glued together.

Inside is another To A Wild Rose sentiment:

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Gala!

Posted on July 28, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! All month I've been offering the Butterfly Gems as my $50 ordering gift, but just realized I haven't shared a single project with them! I pulled out one of my favorite sets, Butterfly Gala, to create an easy card that features them!

This card came together very quickly! I stamped the four different butterflies with Highland Heather ink on Purple Posy card stock, then dry embossed with the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder.

I stamped the greeting from Here's a Card on white, stamped-off the butterflies once before stamping over the greeting, then punched with the Tailored Tag Punch. I added a couple of Purple Posy Butterfly Gems for the finishing touch.

Inside I stamped another sentiment from Here's A Card with Highland Heather ink, as well as another pair of butterflies. Isn't this one so appropriate? Not everyone appreciates a handmade card!

I created a second card with almost the same supplies, but used one of the Butterfly Gala sentiments on the front.

The Butterfly Gems come in two sizes and the five 2019-2021 In Colors of Purple Posy, Rococo Rose, Seaside Spray, Terracotta Tile, and Pretty Peacock.

I used another one of my favorite sentiments from Here's A Card.

Stampin’ Up! Healing Hugs!

Posted on July 27, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I needed to make a Get Well card last week for a dear friend who found out she had a heart attack. She's a little younger than me (I'm 60) so of course I was a bit shocked. She's actually feeling much better now that the stent is in. She didn't realize that some of her symptoms were symptoms of a heart attack, but she should be fine now!

I'm hoping she gets her card in the mail before she sees it here on my blog, but it turned out so lovely I just can't wait any longer to share it! I actually made two, which takes only a little longer than making one, so I would have one to display!

I used Healing Hugs with Gorgeous Grape, Mint Macaron, and Whisper White for my color palette.

It's hard to capture with a camera, but I added Clear Wink of Stella to the fancy-cut bloom!

I tied a bit of Flowers For Every Season Ribbon in a bow and added it with a glue dot. The ribbon is Just Jade, but a softer version that I think blends well with Mint Macaron.

The "Get Well Soon" greeting from Healing Hugs fits perfect inside the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch! I discovered the perfect sequin in the Whale Of A Time Sequins pack!

Inside is all stamped with images from Healing Hugs:
