Stampin’ Up! Soft Seedlings!

Stampin’ Up! Soft Seedlings!

Hey there! Today I have a fall-ish card I created with the Soft Seedlings stamp set! I love fall card making! My favorite colors are the dark rich colors  of fall, and I love creating cards with them. The colors I used today are Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, and Very Vanilla.

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps1

I used a super-easy technique to combine Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze on the leaves. I stamped the leaf and seeds with Pumpkin Pie, then dragged the Cajun Craze ink pad directly on the inked stamp before stamping on the Very Vanilla layer.

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps2

I accented the leaf and the greeting with Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels. I added 1/2" x 5 1/4" strips of  Metallic & Shimmer 6 x 6" Specialty paper to the top & bottom of the vanilla strip before adding to the card front with dimensionals.

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I breathed on the leaf stamp to re-moisten the leftover ink to stamp in the opposite corners. The Cajun Craze stamped sentiment is also from Soft Seedlings.

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps5

I created a second version with a design added to the right side with one of the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks and a Blending Brush with Pumpkin Pie ink.

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps6

I think I probably should have used a lighter touch with my Blending Brush so the "hello" would show up a little more. I'll remember that next time I use the masks over a greeting.

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps8

It's hard to see in the pictures, but I embossed a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Soft Suede with the Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder for both cards. One card I left the embossed layer as it came out of the folder . . .

Stampin_up_soft_seedlings_carolpaynestamps9

and the other card I used the Blending Brush to add Pumpkin Pie ink to make the raised design show up better. Can you tell which card is which? Which one do you prefer?

Stampin’ Up! Sunny Splash!

Stampin’ Up! Sunny Splash!

Hey there! Today's card is a mix of two stamp sets and a completely unrelated set of dies! I combined the Sunny Splash stamp set, Waves of Inspiration stamp set, Palms Dies, AND the Cloud Punch to create this fun card!

Stampin_up_sunny_splash_carolpaynestamps1

I stamped the curling wave from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set using the Stamparatus so I could make sure the large image made good contact with the Basic White layer. I inked the wave with Tahitian Tide ink first, then used a Blending Brush to add Starry Sky ink before stamping. I punched cloud stencils with the Cloud Punch and a Post-It Note so I could use a Blending Brush to add Tahitian Tide ink to the sky and leave the cloud outlines. I cut the palm tree using the Palm Dies from Basic Black card stock, then adhered to the card front with tiny dots of liquid glue. The "Make a Splash" greeting is from Sunny Splash and stamped with Tuxedo Black ink.

Stampin_up_sunny_splash_carolpaynestamps2

For my finishing touch I stamped this Sunny Splash swim suit (there are three suit designs in the set) with Parakeet Party ink, then hand-cut it with my Paper Snips. I added Iridescent Rhinestones to the front of the suit.

Stampin_up_sunny_splash_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I stamped the curling wave and blended the clouds, then added another Sunny Splash sentiment with black ink. I stamped the envelope to match with some smaller palm trees from the Paradise Palms stamp set and I was done!

Stampin’ Up! Tropical Waves!

Stampin’ Up! Tropical Waves!

Hey there! Today I have a fun card for you I created with the Waves of Inspiration Bundle, Timeless Tropical stamps, and the Gentle Waves background stamp.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped the Gentle Waves with Bermuda Bay, masking off the top third of the card with a piece of card stock to create the horizon. I then stamped the wave stamp from the Waves of Inspiration stamp set with Pacific Point. I finished my ocean with a die-cut wave from the Waves Dies.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carolpaynestamps3

I inked the palm trees from the Timeless Tropical set with Early Espresso and Mossy Meadow Stampin' Write Markers. I had masked a setting sun with a circle cut with a die as I used Blending Brushes to create the sunset with Pale Papaya and Calypso Coral ink. I added Clear Wink of Stella to the sun and in rings above it to give the look of the fading light.

Stampin_up_waves_of_inspiration_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I finished the card with a mixture of images from both Timeless Tropical and Waves of Inspiration. Love both of these sets!

Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves Avidly!

Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves Avidly!

Hey there! Today I am sharing the third & final card is my Gorgeous Leaves series! I started with a beginner card here, then stepped-it-up to casual with yesterday's card here, and now today I have added my final touches to bring it up to a card an avid stamper would love!

IMG_2856 (2)

Same basic card as yesterday, but after stamping I embossed the entire front layer with the Bark 3D embossing folder and then used a Blending Brush to add Crumb Cake ink to the edges. Before adhering  the layer to the front I also added Gold 1/4" Shimmer Ribbon, and then added a bow tied from the same ribbon with a glue dot.

IMG_2859 (2)

I stepped-up the greeting by stamping it on a separate piece of very vanilla, and then layering another piece of Cajun Craze under it before adhering with dimensionals.

IMG_2858

Inside I used the same blending brush with Crumb Cake ink on the edges. I think I should have let the Blackberry Bliss ink dry a little longer (or used my Heat Tool) so it wouldn't have smeared like it did as I was blending. Some inks just stay wetter longer than others, and Blackberry Bliss is one of them!

Hey there! I seem to be on a birthday card-making kick lately, and it continues today with this Soft Succulent/Basic White version featuring the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder:

I adhered an Adhesive Sheet to the back of the Basic White card stock before cutting with the Artistic Die. Adhesive Sheets make adhering intricate die-cuts a snap!

I added subtle color the the embossed Soft Succulent layer (on the left) by rubbing my Versamark ink pad on the negative side of the embossing folder before running through the machine.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pretty_flowers_carolpaynestamps5

I punched one end of the greeting strip with the Lovely Labels Pick-a-Punch. Soft Succulent 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon and Genial Gems complete the soft, inviting look.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_pretty_flowers_carolpaynestamps3

I used another Happiest of Birthdays sentiment inside the card. I used another die-cut as a stencil to add Soft Succulent ink with a Blending Brush to both the inside layer and the envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Soar Confidently!

Stampin’ Up! Soar Confidently!

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!

Stampin_up_soar_confidently_carolpaynestamps1

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

Stampin_up_soar_confidently_carolpaynestamps2
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.

Stampin_up_soar_confidently_carolpaynestamps3
I embossed the Pool Party layers with the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder to continue the look of clouds.

Stampin_up_soar_confidently_carolpaynestamps4
Inside I used sentiments from Handsomely Suited, another mini catalog stamp set.

Stampin_up_soar_confidently_carolpaynestamps5

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!
