Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Basics for Linda!

Posted on March 3, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Sunday was a snowy day, so I decided to just to play with my stamps, something I hardly ever do. I created this birthday card I mailed to my downline Linda Reaney:

I used the Spring Flowers Textured Impressions Folder, Butterflies Thinlets Dies, and assorted punches.

I white heat embossed the larger butterfly image from Butterfly Basics, then punched with the Elegant Butterfly Punch. I sponged both butterflies with Melon Mambo ink. The pearls are colored with the Melon Mambo Blendability marker, which currently is unavailable to order due to quality issues. Hoping these will be available again soon!

Both white layers were embossed with the Spring Flowers folder using a technique to selectively omit the center embossing.

We will be making this card in the March Online Card Class!

Stampin’Up! Sunday Swap Day on Sunday Night!

Posted on February 8, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Things have been really busy around here for what seems like forever, but tomorrow it's going to get even busier because Miss Darcy is coming! yay!

Tomorrow morning at approximately 7:30 a.m, Miss Darcy Anne Jenkins is scheduled to make her debut! We are all excited, as well as a bit anxious. A c-section, while routine, is a serious surgery. We will all be breathing a prayer of thanks when mommy and baby are safe and sound.

While we are waiting, and hoping to get a little bit of sleep before setting off for the hospital pre-6 a.m., how about a few swaps?

Ruth Bingle created her swap with the Big Day Sale-a-bration set using the Frosted Window technique:

The "frosted window" is created with clear packing tape over the punched circle, then sprinkling the sticky side with Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

Next, Cathy Stephenson used Butterfly Basics, punching the Bitty Butterfly from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper, which is on sale through Monday, February 9!

Raedean Shibata used Balloon Framelits with Celebrate Today to create a stunning anniversary card. She punched the edge with the Confetti Stars Border Punch, adding Silver Foil paper behind the stars for more shine.

Inside is finished with a banner from Celebrate Today and A Dozen Thoughts sentiment.

Finally, Jackie Ordway used Something Borrowed Designer Paper and a phrase from the For the New Two for her elegant wedding card. The Something Borrowed Embellishment is found on page 42 of the Occasions Catalog.

That's all for now. The next time you visit I should have some Darcy pictures to share, as well as a few more swaps!

Here's a supply list of the main supplies used for todays' swaps you can order from my online store: http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/carolpayne/

All orders of any amount will receive a Thank-you project packet from me. Since I will be staying with Miss Darcy for at least a couple of weeks I will be a bit slow in getting Thank-you packets in the mail this month (I still have some January ones to do too!) but please be patient, I WILL send them!

Big Day Clear Stamp Set [139112] $0.00	Big Day Wood Stamp Set [139109] $0.00	Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter [133751] $4.95	Butterfly Basics Clear Stamp Set [138816] $35.95	Butterfly Basics Wood Stamp Set [138813] $47.95
Butterfly Basics Photopolymer Stamp Set [137154] $23.95	Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper [135315] $4.95	Celebrate Today Photopolymer Bundle [138869] $36.25	Confetti Stars Punch [135861] $21.95	Silver Foil Sheets [132178] $3.95

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Basics!

Posted on January 8, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there. Still no baby. She has been having labor every evening, so it's getting closer. She's 41 weeks today. They won't let her go over 42, but we are hoping she goes on her own.

Today is a Liam day. We've had scrambled eggs, played with duplos, and watched a bit of Thomas. It's always fun to get to "play" with Liam!

Today's card is another from the January Online Class. We are using Butterfly Basics bundle with Irresistibly Yours Specialty Designer Paper (you can get the DSP FREE with a $50 order right now!)

The Circle Card Thinlet Die is a favorite for birthday cards. The Irresistibly Yours paper is white embossed images on white paper, then you add any color of ink you want with a sponge, spritzer, or brayer. I used a Stampin' Sponge to add Wild Wasabi ink, then removed excess ink from the embossed areas with a tissue.

As you open the center circle "flips" to reveal the Blackberry Blissed butterfly cut with a Butterfly Thinlets Die.

Open reveals the center birthday greeting from Hey You, and includes a bookmark stamped with the little bookworm from the Occasions Catalog Hostess set, Time to Celebrate. The top of the center panel and bookmark are punched with the new Ornate Tag Topper Punch!

That's all for now. Check out the supply list for this card, then go shop in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
