Stampin’ Up! Color & Contour Pop & Twist for Ava!

Stampin’ Up! Color & Contour Pop & Twist for Ava!

Hey there! Last night we went to a surprise 16th birthday party for Ava, our second-oldest granddaughter. I had bought a pretty pair of bracelets for her, but needed a gift box for it, so I decided to make a matching card and box!

Stampin_up_color_&_contour_happiest_birthday_carolpaynestamps8

I used the Color & Contour stamps with Scalloped Contours Dies to create this pop & twist card. The colors are Coastal Cabana, Polished Pink, and Daffodil Delight.

Stampin_up_color_&_contour_happiest_birthday_carolpaynestamps9

I added a Loose Flower Flourish with a glue dot, and then added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel with a tiny dot of liquid glue.

Stampin_up_color_&_contour_happiest_birthday_carolpaynestamps10

The pop & twist fun-fold:

The sentiment if from Color & Contour.

Here's a link to a video with the directions to make the pop & twist fun fold:

Stampin_up_color_&_contour_happiest_birthday_carolpaynestamps7

I used the same color combo to create the box for the bracelets.

Stampin_up_color_&_contour_happiest_birthday_carolpaynestamps11

I cut the tags with two of the Tailor Made Tags dies, then embellished with Polished Pink 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon.

Stampin_up_color_&_contour_happiest_birthday_carolpaynestamps12

I used another Loose Flower Flourish and Rhinestone. The sentiment is from Best Year.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Ice Cream for Cyndal!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Ice Cream for Cyndal!

Hey there! Today I have another birthday card I created for one of my grandchildren. I created this fun-fold card for Cyndal's 3rd birthday with the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set and Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch:

Stampin_up_sweet_ice_cream_carolpaynestamps2

I used a pretty soft-rainbow print from the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper pack, then chose the rest of my card stock and ink colors to coordinate. I love this pack of paper, you can only get it when you have Host Rewards from your order, but it contains 48 sheets, 4 each of 12 double-sided designs, so it is a great value to use your Host Rewards on! I stamped the ice cream with Flirty Flamingo ink, both full-strength, and then a second time with the leftover ink on the stamp. I stamped the cone with Pale Papaya and Crumb Cake. I punched it all with the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch.

Stampin_up_sweet_ice_cream_carolpaynestamps3

I stamped the HAPPY repeatedly with the Stamparatus, using the hinge-step technique. Both the bold and the curvy "happy" are from the Biggest Wish stamp set.

Stampin_up_sweet_ice_cream_carolpaynestamps4

Inside is a fun-fold I don't know the name for. I CASED the fold from a card I received in a swap. It's super easy but so fun!

Stampin_up_sweet_ice_cream_carolpaynestamps5

Each flap I stamped another ice cream scoop and one of the Sweet Ice Cream sentiments.

Stampin_up_sweet_ice_cream_carolpaynestamps7

The middle flap is stamped all with Biggest Wish.

Stampin_up_sweet_ice_cream_carolpaynestamps6

I love that the Sweet Ice Cream set includes the sprinkles stamps!

Final inside sentiment!

1723402_10152213035905070_85588169_n

My first card features the Sweet Strawberry Bundle and the Give It A Whirl Dies!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_whirl_carolpaynestamps1

The first sentiment I stamped in the window is from Sweet Strawberry!

Sentiment #2 is also from Sweet Strawberry!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_whirl_carolpaynestamps3

#3 is from Celebrate Sunflowers!

I love that the Give It A Whirl dies include a little arrow to show how to turn the dial!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_whirl_carolpaynestamps6

I added one of my favorite Bumblebee Trinkets to the Granny Apple Green layer I embellished with the Stitched Greenery die!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_whirl_carolpaynestamps5

Inside I used a sentiment from Positive Thoughts!

Stampin_up_sweet_as_a_peach_carolpaynestamps1

The Give It A Whirl Dies have three different window dies to choose from.

Stampin_up_sweet_as_a_peach_carolpaynestamps3

I added a die-cut peach to the second sentiment.

Stampin_up_sweet_as_a_peach_carolpaynestamps4

All of the sentiments on this card are from Sweet As A Peach!
