Stampin’ Up! Garden Lane Scrappy Strips!

Stampin’ Up! Garden Lane Scrappy Strips!

Hey there! I have finally jumped on the Scrappy Strip technique bandwagon with this card created with Daisy Lane stamps and Garden Lane Designer paper!

Scrappy Strips is a super-easy way to use up all of those little strips of paper that you never know what to do with! Too pretty to throw away, but too small to do much with, I usually just keep them forever! I pulled out all of those little strips, used my paper trimmer to cut one side of each strip just slightly diagonal, and started laying them on a piece of Whisper White card stock, leaving a thin bit of white showing between each strip. When I was done, I used my paper snips to trim off the excess portion of the strip extending beyond the edge of the white card stock.

I used the small daisy from Daisy Lane to stamp and punch out two Mint Macaron daisies, then sandwiched a plain white one in between them with liquid glue. I finished the daisy with a now-retiring Clear Faceted Gem. I heat embossed the "Smile" greeting with white powder and Versamark ink.

Inside I chose to use a sentiment from the now-retiring Beautiful Day.

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Day!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Day!

Hey there! I'm still playing with the Pleased As Punch Designer Paper before it retires at the end of the month! Today I stamped/heat embossed on one of the sheets, punched out the flowers with the Small Bloom Punch, and used the flip side of the same sheet for the background!

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps1

I made sure I rubbed my Embossing Buddy over the paper before stamping with Versamark and sprinkling the black embossing powder. I did "fussy-cut" with Paper Snips as there is not die for the butterfly.

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps3

I heat embossed the greeting, also from Beautiful Day, directly on the background layer of Pleased As Punch paper.

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps2

The little flowers were punched with the Small Bloom Punch, a Sale-a-bration freebie choice! I finished the centers with Rhinestones.

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I heat-embossed the other sentiment from Beautiful Day and added another heat-embossed butterfly.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Mother’s Day Sunday Swap Day May 14th

Stampin’ Up! Happy Mother’s Day Sunday Swap Day May 14th

Hey there! Everyone will be coming to our house for lunch today for Mother's Day! I can hardly wait!

I have a bunch of butterfly-themed swaps to share with you today, starting with Tandra Boyer's gold heat-embossed Beautiful Day on Watercolor Paper:

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps1

These Tutti-frutti Adhesive-backed Sequins and Glitter & Clear Epoxy Shapes are retiring. Be sure to check those out in my online store because one of them is discounted!

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps3

Next, Tamie Ackerson created a Pop-thru card with the Retiring-but-sold-out Butterflies Thinlets and Retiring-but-not-yet-sold-out Bold Butterflies Framelits:

Stampin_up_beter_together_carolpaynestamps1

She layered a small vellum butterfly over the Old Olive/Whisper White wings, then tied with Linen Thread.

Stampin_up_better_together_carolpaynestamps2

The butterfly pops through the Classic Label-punched slot. The greetings are from carrying-over Better Together.

Stampin_up_better_together_carolpaynestamps3

The artist of this card also used the sold-out Butterflies Thinlets and sold out Fluttering Textured Impressions Folder, but the greeting from Picture Perfect Birthday is NOT retiring.

Stampin_up_picture_perfect_birthday_carolpaynestamps1

Finally, Mary Lang used retiring-but-not-sold out Bold Butterfly Framelits with the retiring You've Got This stamps. She used a scallop template to sponge blue ink to create clouds, and punched the bottom edge with the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch.

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brusho!

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brusho!

Hey there! Today I'm going to share with you a card that in the past I might have thrown in the trash because it didn't turn out as planned,  but I think you'll see why I decided to share it anyway.

I wanted to try the Brusho "spritz" technique of sprinkling the crystals on the paper and then spritzing with water, which is a completely different look than when you paint with Brusho.

I stamped the butterfly on Shimmery White paper with Tangerine Tango ink and the Picture Perfect Birthday greeting with Memento Tuxedo Black. I sprinkled both Yellow and Gamboge Brusho Crystal Colour on the paper and then spritzed with water.

Stampin_up_brusho_butterfly_carolpaynestamps1

The Brusho exploded into these brilliant colors, which was expected. What I didn't expect was how it overpowered the stamped image!

Stampin_up_brusho_butterfly_carolpaynestamps2

And it also made the greeting smear a little, but you know, overall I like the look!

Stampin_up_brusho_butterfly_carolpaynestamps3

Inside is a prim and proper contrast without Brusho.

Stampin_up_brusho_butterfly_carolpaynestamps4

Can you see why I couldn't throw this creation away? I'm kind of lovin' it!

Stampin’ Up! Brusho Bloom and Black!

Stampin’ Up! Brusho Bloom and Black!

Hey there! Today's card is a happy accident! Brusho crystals bled over the embossed edges, so I cut away the rest of the square. The the vibrantly painted bloom is a striking contrast with the black!

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps1

Yellow Brusho for the center, Brilliant Red for the Bloom, and Moss Green, Yellow, and Prussian Blue for the leaf. I sprinkled Moss Green on a clear block, swirled with a little AquaPainter water, then sprinkled & swirled yellow separately.  I added a bit of yellow to the green, then I added a tiny bit of water swirled Prussian Blue. The color combos are endless!

Stampin_up_beautiful_day_carolpaynestamps2

The rest of the card is the same as my earlier version, with the exception I added a layer of Smokey Slate under the stamped white layer.
