Stampin’ Up! Color Your Season With the Blended Seasons Bundle!

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I spent quite a bit of time yesterday sorting the rest of the pics I took of the swap boards on the Alaska Incentive Trip and realized I had a bunch of samples created with the Limited Edition Blended Seasons Bundle!

I've broken the swap pics into two groups. I'm sharing one group today and the rest tomorrow!

With the combined Blended Seasons stamps and the Stitched Seasons Framelits (bundled to save you 10%) you can create a lovely fall card like this one. The creator used the Climbing Vine Textured Impressions folder for a coordinating background.

For this card the blooms were heat embossed with white powder before being colored with Stampin' Blends.

The blooms on this card were colored with the Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2, then blended with a Blender Pen. The leaves were also cut with Stitched Seasons Framelits Dies. Pearls Basic Jewels add the finishing touch.

After stamping the blooms with Smoky Slate ink on Smoky Slate card stock, a Stitched Seasons Framelits Die was used to cut out the window. A piece of Delightfully Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper was mounted behind the window. A Gray Granite 1/2" Textured Weave Ribbon makes an easy knot/bow.

Here's today's supply list:

Stampin’ Up! Serene Garden Corner Fold!

Posted on June 27, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! My day yesterday did not go at all the way I planned or expected, but isn't that the way life often goes? I did manage right before bed time to make this card with the new Serene Garden Bundle!

I used a corner-fold technique, which is new to me, but has been around for awhile.

After stamping the lovely bird with Tranquil Tide on Whisper White, I cut it out with a Garden Scene Framelit. Mounted on a Pearlized Doily makes it look so elegant!

I stamped this little leaf image on the spine of the card. It looks just perfect there! Serene Garden contains no words, so I used a phrase from Itty Bitty Greetings, punched with the Classic Label.

I used a Mint Macaron print from Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper at the bottom and tied a Whisper White 5/8" Dotted Tulle bow. I punched the fold of the card with the Detailed Trio Punch to make the opening for the tulle.

Inside I used another Itty Bitty Greeting phrase.

I'll be creating more soon with this bundle!

Stampin’ Up! Highland Heather Painted Glass!

Posted on June 26, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I am so impressed and thrilled by how easily all of the products from the Painted Glass Suite work together! Although I've stretched out the four cards I've created (so far) over four blog posts, I actually whipped these up quickly once I started playing. The Graceful Glass Designer Vellum did most of the work for me!

I embossed a layer of Highland Heather with the new Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Folder for an elegant look as a background for a sympathy card:

After coloring the back side of the vellum with Light & Dark Rich Razzleberry, Light & Dark Old Olive, and Dark Pool Party Stampin' Blends, I adhered to the white strip with glue dots. I cut Silver Foil with a Stained Glass Thinlet, cut it in half, then attached behind the flower strip to create an easy-but-intricate frame.

I backed the sentiment with a bit of Silver Foil. Both are punched with the Everyday Label.

Inside I used a Flourishing Phrases sentiment and colored the stamped Painted Glass medallions with the same Stampin' Blends.

Stampin’ Up! Rooted In Nature!

Posted on June 18, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've been so obsessed with Abstract Impression that I've ignored Rooted in Nature, another simply gorgeous bundle! So today I'm sharing one of the cards we made at my New Catalog Kickoff!

We stamped Rooted with Nature on a Very Vanilla Note Card and the matching envelope with new Shaded Spruce ink! We grouped the two leaves and the spray on the same clear block to make placement easier and stamping faster!

The Rooted in Nature greeting in stamped on a banner we punched with the Banner Triple Punch. The vanilla strip is 1 1/2" wide by 4" before punching. The Shaded Spruce mat layer is 1 5/8" wide by 4 1/8" wide before punching.

The Banner Trio Punch, designed to punch 1" wide, 1 1/2" wide, and 2" wide strips, can punch other widths by carefully "eyeballing" the edges evenly before punching:

The Rooted in Nature Bundle includes the Nature's Roots Framelits Dies. We used this leaf embossing die to emboss the leaves from Shaded Spruce, then hand-cut it with Paper Snips.

"thinking of you" is also from Rooted in Nature.
