Hey there! Today I have a set of cards to share created by one of my dear friends and Yes Mam! Stampers team member, Linda Reaney. Linda used the Celebrate Sunflowers and Very Versailles stamp sest to create this pretty set of cards:

Inside:

She used Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, and Mango Melody Stampin' Blends to color the sunflowers and leaves.

Inside:

She used the Label Me Lovely Punch to cut out the greeting on this one:

Stampin’ Up! January Paper Pumpkin Sending Hearts!

Posted on January 21, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Stampin' Up!'s monthly crafting subscription box, Paper Pumpkin, arrived in my mailbox this week. The Sending Hearts January kit is absolutely adorable! I immediately made two of the eight cards included in the kit, as well as another with a few additional supplies!

The two kit cards:

Exactly as shown in the kit . . .

I did add one of the tiny Petal Pink epoxy hearts included in the kit. They come in several sizes including a few star-shaped flowers!

I stamped the second card according to the kit directions.

Here's a tip for stamping with photopolymer stamps that have smooth-surfaces, like the solid hearts in this image. Tap the stamp on your ink pad a few times, then stamp on scrap paper. Re-ink without cleaning the stamp to stamp on your card. I didn't do that when I stamped the heart on the left. The heart on the right is much better after re-inking after the first stamping.

I used one of the Petal Pink epoxy hearts here too!

After I made the kit cards I used the little snail stamp to make my own with a few additional supplies:

This sweet little guy coordinates with the Snailed It Bundle in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog! I heat-embossed him with white powder on Poppy Parade, then cut him out with one of the Heart Punch Pack punches. There were plenty of epoxy hearts to sprinkle around!

You can't order this kit. It's only available by subscription, which closes on the 10th of each month. However, you can subscribe now to the February Kit. I'm sure it will not disappoint. Give Paper Pumpkin a try!

Here's my link to subscribe. You can cancel at any time. There's no obligation to purchase a certain number of kits, but I think you will like it! It's a fun surprise in your mailbox every month!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Ice Cream!

Posted on January 20, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a fun card to share created with the Sweet Ice Cream bundle of stamps and the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch! I created two cards, one horizontal (also called landscape) and one vertical (portrait). I wanted to make them both into shaker cards, so I added the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles to the clear envelopes I inserted with the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper.

I created the ice cream cone embellishment by punching the Ice Cream Corner Designer paper with the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch, then adding them to the Bermuda Bay greeting strip with liquid glue under the cone and mini stampin' dimensionals under the scoop!

I heat embossed the greetings with white powder, then added clear Elegant Faceted Gems for some sparkle.

All of the images I used on both cards are included in the Sweet Ice Cream set.

I created the portrait card in the same manner, adding the Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles to the clear envelope, then folding the excess of the envelope to the back of the layer and securing with tape. The sprinkles look good enough to eat!

I stamped two of the Sweet Ice Cream sentiments with Versamark on the Flirty Flamingo greeting strip, then heat embossed with white powder again. I added the Heart Charm with rolled-up glue dots.

Inside:

Ice Cream Corner Suite Collection	Sweet Ice Cream Bundle	Sweet Ice Cream Photopolymer Stamp Set
Ice Cream Corner Sprinkles	Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper	Heart Charms
Cinnamon Cider 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Bermuda Bay 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Flirty Flamingo 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock

Stampin’ Up! Soar Confidently!

Posted on January 19, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have another masculine birthday card to share. I created this one with the new Soar Confidently stamp set from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. It's a stand-alone set, which means there are no dies or punches to accompany it but I love vintage images, so I had to have it to play with!

After I stamped the bi-plane with black ink I then used a Blending Brush to softly swirl Pool Party ink for the sky.

I was able to leave the area of the greeting ink-free. I added a couple of Gilded Gems because while sparkly, they also look a bit industrial, or rivet-like.

I embossed the Pool Party layers with the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder to continue the look of clouds.

Inside I used sentiments from Handsomely Suited, another mini catalog stamp set.

Speaking of the Mini Catalog and the Sale-a-bration brochure, if you usually receive these mailings from me but you haven't received your copies yet, please let me know ASAP so I can notify Stampin' Up! to re-mail. Hopefully the January P.O. will be faster!

Dimensions:

Soft Suede base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score at 2 1/8", 4 1/4" focal image mat: 2" x 4 1/4" inside mat: 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"

Pool Party front panel: 1 7/8" x 5 1/4" inside layer: 4" x 5 1/4"

Very Vanilla focal image layer: 1 3/4" x 4" inside sentiment layer: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Soar Confidently Cling Stamp Set	Handsomely Suited Cling Stamp Set	Old World Paper 3D Embossing Folder
Blending Brushes	Gilded Gems	Soft Suede 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock
Pool Party 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Pool Party Classic Stampin' Pad	Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day January 17th!

Posted on January 17, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! We are back around to Sunday, so of course I'm sharing some swaps! We had Lando's 6th birthday party yesterday afternoon, so I made sure I had this blog post finished before I went!

Today's swaps were all created with stamps from the 2021 Sale-a-bration brochure. Sale-a-bration is only two months long this time, so you will need to place your orders soon to get the goodies you want! The really great thing about Sale-a-bration this year is that there will be a second round of it in July/August with different stamps and accessories!

This first card was created by Jan Rodrian with the Darling Donkeys SAB stamp set and True Love Designer Series Paper from the Jan/June Mini Catalog. She combined Melon Mambo with Basic Black and Basic White, coloring the donkey and select blooms from the black-and-white paper with Stampin' Blends. She used last year's SAB Small Bloom Punch, which is now available to order from the Annual Catalog, with a Matte Black Dot found in the Love You Always Suite on page 11 of the Jan/June Mini.

Next, Linda Pagel also used Darling Donkeys for her swap, combining it with Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (another Sale-a-bration $50 spend choice).

Kelly Acheson combined the Sweet Strawberry bundle of stamps and punch from the mini catalog with the Berry Blessings/Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper bundle ($100 spend to choose) from the SAB brochure for her creation:

Rhonda Bassler also used the Sweet Strawberry Bundle with Berry Blessings/Berry Delightful DSP:

Finally, Kathy Johnson also chose the Sweet Strawberry bundle, using all of the Strawberry Builder Punch elements on her card along with the SAB Berry Delightful Designer Series paper. She used the Double Oval Punch found on page 65 of the January/June Mini Catalog to highlight the greeting.

Sweet Strawberry Bundle	Sweet Strawberry Photopolymer Stamp Set	Strawberry Builder Punch

I punched with the Double Oval Punch, then added Coastal Cabana Holiday Rhinestones for sparkle.

A Touch of Ink contains sentiments and images. No additional stamp sets needed!

For the Blackberry Bliss I used the Tailored Tag Punch and Gorgeous Grape Pastel Pearls.

A Touch of Ink includes stamps to add color to the outline images.

The Granny Apple Green version, also with Coastal Cabana Holiday Rhinestones and Tailored Tag Punch.

There are 17 photopolymer stamps in A Touch of Ink, including this "Love"!

Finally, Rococo Rose with Rococo Rose Pastel Pearls:

I left the inside blank to add a personal note of thanks:
