On a VERY IMPORTANT side note, Crisp Cantaloupe, a 2013/15 In Color, card stock, inkpads, ink refills, markers, thick baker's twine, and designer paper will be retiring on June 2nd. The Retiring List will be announced on April 21st, so there will be a lot of stamp sets and accessories on that list, but WE KNOW all of the 2015/2015 In Color products will be retiring because this is the year they automatically retire. Once an In Color is on the retiring list it becomes WHILE SUPPLIES LAST and availability cannot be guaranteed through the end of the catalog, which is June 2nd. A word to the wise: if you love this color or any of the other 2013/2015 In Colors, you NEED to order them NOW!!!!! If you have the inkpad but not the ink refill you need to contact me to order for you or order directly from my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

A bit of Gold Foil Sheet an some unraveled 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon for the tag tie finish this one off.

Raspberry Ripple Petite Petals flowers highlight this Raspberry Ripple/Whisper White confection! Scoring gives the background a lattice-look, and the greeting is from Sassy Salutations.

Stampin’Up! Sunday Swap Day Masculine Sympathy and a  Thank You!

Stampin’Up! Sunday Swap Day Masculine Sympathy and a Thank You!

It's Sunday, which means it's Sunday Swap Day, the day I share some of the swaps I receive each month from the swap groups I belong to!

I really like these cards!

Sherri Beyrer used wood-planking from Truly Grateful, the moose and "thinking of you" from Walk in the Wild, 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon, the Tasteful Trim Bigz XL Die, and the Circle Card Thinlet Die for her creation. The colors she used are Midnight Muse, Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, and Very Vanilla.

Sherri beyrer 1

On the "flip" side of this card she used a phrase from Thoughts & Prayers, and the acorn stamp from Truly Grateful

Sherri beyrer 2

Raedean Shibata used Island Indigo and Very Vanilla to create her elegant and serene thanks card. Starting with the Label Card Thinlet Die, she added flourishes from Creative Elements, strips of Island Indigo embossed with the Square Lattice folder, a decorative edge from a Finishing Touches Edgelit, Coastal Cabana 3/8" Ruffle Stretch Trim, and a flower and greeting from Blooming with Kindness.

Raedean shibata 1

Inside the "flip", she stamped another phrase from Blooming with Kindness.

Raedean shibata 2

That's all for now! Today is my quarterly meeting with my Yes, Mam! Stampers, and I can hardly wait! We are trying a new meeting location and format. I am excited to see how it goes!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Well, today is the last day I am keeping Liam this school year. I love that little guy, he's my favorite Liam in all the world! Summer break starts next week, so he will be with his mommy everyday, much to her delight, but I will be back with him starting sometime in mid-august! Right now he is still army-crawling and cruising around the couch, but by august he will probably be walking, even running! I'll get to see him frequently during the summer, so it's all good!

Stampin’ Up! Blooming With Kindness Honeycomb! What’s Liam Up to this Week?

Stampin’ Up! Blooming With Kindness Honeycomb! What’s Liam Up to this Week?

The most popular card at my CampJustWannaStamp! class this past Saturday was this one with the Blooming With Kindness set and Beautiful Wings Embosslit butterflies!

Here's the inside:

Blooming with kindness 2
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

This card would be a perfect encouragement, get well, or sympathy card. I inked the flower stamp from the set with Not Quite Navy ink, stamped off once before stamping on the un-embossed Very Vanilla layer, then kept stamping, finally "huffing" on the remaining ink on the stamp before stamping the final few times.

The "Hope is . . " phrase is was stamped in Early Espresso over a stamped-off flower, then punched out with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch.

I've already shown this card on my Facebook Page: Carol Payne Stamps, and it has received more likes than any other card I've ever put on there!

Since it is so popular, I thought I should include the class handout for you to print out if you like:
