Stampin’ Up! Hello Ladybug!

Posted on January 5, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I want to share this fun card with you that I created for a swap I participated in last month for J&J Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration products. My card today uses the Hello Ladybug Bundle and Flowering Fields Designer Paper from the J&J Mini!

After stamping the ladybug wings with Poppy Parade ink on Basic White, I stamped the dots with Tuxedo Black Memento and then added Clear Wink of Stella to give them some shine. You can stamp the ladybug body with black ink, but I saved time by punching the body from Basic Black card stock.

I combined two phrases from Hello Ladybug , "hello" and "my friend" on the same stamp block to create the greeting, and added a ribbon bow with my favorite Black & White 1/4" Gingham Ribbon. I added Matte Black Dots to the Poppy Parade-stamped flowers, also from Hello Ladybug. The Matte Black Dots really pop against this color palette of Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz, Basic White, and Basic Black!

Inside I stamped another Hello Ladybug sentiment, as well as more Poppy Parade blooms.

I used Black Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the wings to the ladybug body, as well as to adhere the body to the card. These dimensionals come in a combo back of both regular-size and mini dimensionals. Black dimensionals are less noticeable with you are using darker card stocks.

This card was really easy and fun to make! I didn't even get tired of making the 21 I needed for my swap!

Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Center Easel-fold!

Posted on December 18, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card is another birthday card I created for another son who had a birthday in November. I used the same center easel-fold I used previously, but I used an Early Espresso/Very Vanilla color combo and the Biggest Wish photopolymer stamp set.

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the sentiments from Biggest Wish with Early Espresso ink several times (I think at least 4 times for each word). I stamped it on the Cork Specialty paper that is retiring from the Holiday Mini Catalog but has not yet sold out (at least it hadn't when I checked before writing this blog post). I added a Bumblebee Trinket with a Mini Glue Dot for an added special touch.

I stamped the largest circle image from Watercolor Shapes with Crumb Cake ink on the Very Vanilla inside layer before stamping a sentiment from Sunny Sentiments. I added a 1/2" wide strip of Early Espresso card stock with a row of Stampin' Dimensionals to create the "easel stop".

Stampin’ Up! Winter Wishes!

Posted on December 14, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Welcome to the December edition of the Stampers Dozen Blog Hop! Our theme this month is "Winter Wishes", anything with a winter theme! I'm excited to see what everyone creates!

I needed a birthday card anyway for one of my sons, so I decided to use this theme to create his card and get two things done at once! I used the Beauty of Friendship Bundle of stamps and dies with sentiments from the Handsomely Suited stamp set to create this center-easel card.

This is a fun, fast, and simple card to make!

Both tree images are in the Beauty of Friendship stamp set, so it was quick to stamp the "forest". I used the phrase, "you're the best" from Handsomely Suited, cut with one of the Beautiful Trees dies to create the easel "stop". I also added a few Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems for some sparkle.

To expand on the "winter" theme for the blog hop I also added Clear Wink of Stella to the trees for some subtle shimmer.

After I created this card I also created another one for my another birthday boy. I will share it with you next time!

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Brilliance CASEing Myself!

Posted on October 29, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I want to share with you a card that I CASE'd (Copy And Selectively Edit) from myself! I was stamping up some leftover class kits when I decided to change the card a bit using most of the original supplies. I liked it so well I knew I needed to share it with you!

My original card on the left used the Butterfly Brilliance bundle of stamps and dies, Peaceful Moments and Dragonfly Garden stamps, and the Basic Patterns Decorative Masks with both White Craft and Balmy Blue Ink.

I kept the same basic layout and stamps for my CASE, but instead of using the mask and a Blending Brush, I stamped part of the Butterfly Brilliance background image with White Craft ink, then heat embossed with White Powder.

I added Elegant Gems to the butterfly bodies just like I did in the original.

Since I will be packaging most of these up to offer at my next Craft Fair, I decided to leave the inside free of any sentiment so they can be used for multiple occasions.

Supplies to order to make both or either card:

Stampin’ Up! Masculine Mountain Air!

Posted on October 14, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I'm sharing the card I created for my monthly mail-in swap. One of our choices for this month was to make a masculine birthday card, so I used the Mountain Air and Stacked Stone stamp sets with sentiments from Sweet Strawberry to create this:

After I decided the stamp set I wanted to use, then I looked through the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper pack and chose this textile design that is sort of Night of Navy but almost Basic Black or Basic Gray. I decided to use Basic Gray card stock and ink and Smoky Slate card stock for the Neutral to stamp the focal image and inside layer.

I cut the focal image layer with a Seasonal Labels die, as well as the Stacked Stone-stamped layer underneath it. I stamped the mountains first with Basic Gray, cleaned the stamp, then stamped just the tops of the mountains with White Craft Ink. I stamped the moon with White Craft as well, then added sparkle with my Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. The greeting is from Sweet Strawberry.

Inside I repeated the same stamping process for the mountains and moon, then stamped the sentiment from Sweet Strawberry, omitting the rest of the words, "you sweet thing" by cleaning off the ink with a baby wipe before stamping.

Tomorrow is Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop Day! Be sure to come back and check out my projects and the rest of the hop!

Stampin’ Up! Blackberry Beauty Nature’s Harvest!

Posted on October 13, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have another birthday card to share with you! This time it is the card I created for my daughter, Alisa's birthday that we also celebrated this past weekend. I used the Nature's Harvest Bundle with Blackberry Beauty Specialty Paper to create this fun-fold card. I am including the dimensions for this card near the bottom of this post:

I inked the cone flower image with Blackberry Bliss, Old Olive, and Cinnamon Cider Stampin' Write Markers to stamp on Very Vanilla. I then colored the petals with a Light Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Blends and the stems and leaves with a Light Old Olive Stampin' Blend. I went back over the stems and leaves with a Light Soft Suede Stampin' Blend. I love how especially the Light versions of the Stampin' Blends Markers have an opaque look to them that lets you layer colors to get a new color you need but don't have any other way! After cutting them out with a Harvest Die I added Clear Wink of Stella to the cone flower tops for a bit of shimmer.

I used my Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Write Marker on this sentiment from Quiet Meadow to omit the words to leave just "Heartfelt love" for stamping.

The final sentiment is from Sunny Sentiments, also stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink.

I had fun putting this card together! I want to give this fun fold a try with a Christmas theme!

Dimensions:

Cinnamon Cider card base: 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"

Blackberry Beauty Designer base layer: 5 1/4" x 4"

Gold Foil layer: 4 1/2" x 3 1/2"

Blackberry Bliss layer: 4 1/4" x 3 1/4"

Blackberry Beauty Designer accordion layer: 4" x 9", scored & folded @ 3", 5 1/2", 8"

Cinnamon Cider focal image layer: 3 1/2" x 2 1/2"

Cork focal image layer: 3 1/4" x 2 1/4"

Very Vanilla for flowers layer: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Very Vanilla for middle layer: 3 1/2" x 2 1/4"

Very Vanilla back layer: 3 1/4" x 2 1/2"
