Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day June 17th!

Posted on June 17, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there and Happy Father's Day! Per usual, it's Sunday Swap Day here on Stampingroxmyfuzzybluesox! Today I have an eclectic mix of stamps and styles to share with you, all featuring New Catalog products!

First, Rhonda Bassler used one of my favorites, the Abstract Impressions Bundle, with the new In Color, Grapefruit Grove!

Next, Deb McCahan used the Painted Glass Bundle with the Stained Glass Designer Vellum. She solved the coloring conundrum by punching circles of card stock in Flirty Flamingo, Berry Burst, and Pineapple Punch to go behind the Basic Black thinlet mosaic.

Kelly Acheson used the Sea of Textures Bundle with the Tranquil Textures Designer Paper. This matching Under the Sea Framelits made cutting out all of those octopus tentacles a snap!

Finally, Mary Waring combined the Stitched All Around Bundle with Garden Impressions 6" x 6" Designer Paper for a fun and girly card!

Stampin’ Up! Stampers Dozen Blog Hop In With the New!

Posted on June 14, 2018 by Carol Payne

It's time for another Stampers Dozen Blog Hop! Our theme this month is "Anything Goes!"

I've had the Abstract Impressions Bundle on my crafting desk for a few days so I decided to create with it!

I used So Saffron for my card base, adding a 2" wide strip of Garden Impressions Designer Paper.

After stamping the rose stamp from Abstract Impressions with Versamark, I added a 1/4" wide strip of Crushed Curry. I cut the butterfly from Vellum using a Springtime Impressions Thinlet. I adhered it with a glue dot and added a Clear Faceted Gem.

After stamping "thank you" with Crushed Curry I cut it out with a Stitched Labels Framelit.

I cut another butterfly from Garden Impressions DSP, folded it in the middle so it would bend outward when the card is opened, then adhered with glue dots.

See how it folds as you close the card? EASY!

Stampin’ Up! Abstract Impressions – I used the stencil on a card!

Posted on June 14, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! While I was sponging through the stencil cut with a Springtime Impressions thinlet for the card I posted yesterday, I decided to use the sponged stencil on a card too!

Balmy Blue is SUCH a PRETTY color! There's a hint of green in the ink that I don't really see in the card stock, it's almost like a light Island Indigo! After I used the stencil to sponge on the card I showed you yesterday, I applied liquid glue to the back of the stencil to adhere to this card.

I heat-embossed the greeting with white powder, then added a Share What You Love embellishment with a glue dot.

Before I adhered the sponged stencil to the front I used it like a stencil on the inside white layer.

Tomorrow is Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop day, so be sure to stop by while the hop is hoppin!

Stampin’ Up! Abstract Impressions Anniversary!

Posted on June 12, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I played quite a bit with the Abstract Impression Bundle, using Balmy Blue and Silver Foil to create a nifty anniversary card:

The card base is a classic "z-fold"; 4 1/4" x 11", scored and folded at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2". Silver Foil was cut with a Springtime Impressions Thinlet, then adhered with liquid glue applied with a small paintbrush.

I heat embossed the greeting from Stitched All Around with silver powder, then punched and rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio Punch. My supply table below says Pearl Basic Jewels in error, they are actually Metallic Pearls #146282.

Inside I added a layer of Silver Foil, then punched the corners of the white layer again with the Detailed Trio Punch and then embossed the sentiment from Stitched All Around.

This was actually a pretty quick and easy card!

Stampin’ Up! Abstract Impressions Easel!

Posted on June 11, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! You knew I would eventually make an easel card with Abstract Impressions, didn't you! I love the easel-fold, and this bundle feels like it was created for it!

I chose Melon Mambo for my card base, stamped on the white layer with Melon Mambo ink, then sponged the flowers and leaves cut with a Springtime Impressions Thinlet. I used new Shaded Spruce, Powder Pink, Melon Mambo, and new Highland Heather.

I added black faceted gems for some sparkle.

Inside I cut the sentiments with Celebrate You Thinlet Dies, then sponged them with the same colors as the front. The cut sentiments are flexible, so I was able to curve them a bit as I was adhering with liquid glue "painted" with a small brush.

The finished easel:
