Stampin’ Up! Silver Snow Day!

Stampin’ Up! Silver Snow Day!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Stampin' Up! has an awesome sale starting today, running until December 2nd. I will post the info for this sale in a minute, but first I need to show you this card I just created:

Stampin_up_snow_day_silver_1

THIS is ONE of the many reasons I am a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!

I got positively giddy while creating this card! One of my stampers tonight at the Stamp-a-Stack I was doing asked me what colors besides the blue we were using to stamp the Snow Day snowman could you stamp him with. I listed Whisper White Craft ink and then it hit my brain that he would look awesome and snow-y in Silver Encore Metallic! So as soon as I arrived home I pulled out Basic Black and Smoky Slate cardstock and sat down to make it!

Stampin_up_snow_day_silver_2

I used the snowflake stamp from the Snow Day set around the snowman, and then used the finest splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge, inked in Silver Encore Metallic and then stamped off, to add fine snow around and over the whole thing.

See his eyes? I stamped the snowman face first with Silver Encore Metallic, but it didn't show up very well with silver stamped on silver, so I stamped over it with Jet Black StazOn ink and ended up with an almost ghosted-look for this smile and his eyes look like he is looking up!

Stampin_up_snow_day_3

Inside I combined the Snow Day snowflake with "Oh what fun!" from Christmas Messages and "a very merry Christmas to you" from More Merry Messages.

Hey there! I had a jam-packed day yesterday! I took care of both Liam and Jaxon, and held my first Christmas Trimmings class all at the same time! The boys were good, for toddlers they play together very well and love to be with each other!

Here they are watching "Curious George" on Netflix:

Jaxon & liam 11-18-13

I had to sneak up on them to take this because everytime Liam hears my camera turn on he starts laughing and cheesing!

Liam & jaxon 11-18-13

Needless to say I headed to bed early last night!

Today I want to share a card I received from my dear friend Becky:

Becky mixed a little it of retired product, Best Friends Forever and the Elegant Bouquet Textured Impressions Folder, with current Soho Subway and In Color Designer Paper, Tea Lace Doilies, Adorning Accents Edgelit, Full Heart Punch, and Pearls Basic Jewels.

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Tags!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Tags!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I had a chance to work on these little tags tonight. They turned out so cute I just had to share:

Stampin_up_be_merry_1
I used the Be Merry Single stamp, which includes the "to: from:", heat embossing them with Early Espresso on Crumb Cake cardstock, White on Basic Black cardstock, and Cherry Cobbler on Crumb Cake.

This stamp is designed to coordinate with one of the Chalk Talk Framelits. After cutting each with the framelit, I then matted them on 2 1/2" x 3 3/4" cardstock layers and snipped the ends into tag corners.

The Chalk Talk Framelits also have three different little shapes to cut the center opening of tags, so I used the largest one to cut the openings. I threaded Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Seam Binding through the White/Basic Black/Basic Gray tag, Natural 7/16" Trim through the Early Espresso/Crumb Cake/Early Espresso tag, and Victoria Crochet trim through the Cherry Cobbler/Crumb Cake/Early Espresso tag.

That's it! These tags went together very easy peasy! Everyone attending my Christmas Trimmings class on November 18th, 22nd, and 23rd will make a set of these, in addtion to the Santa Gift Card Holder, and the two Festive Flurry Ornaments! Let me know ASAP you are coming!

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping in today to see what I've been up to!

Here's your shopping list to make your own set of tags:

Be Merry Single Stamp #134767 $8.95

Chalk Talk Framelits #129983 $24.95

Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Emboss Powder #122949 $4.75

Stampin’ Up! Merry Little Christmas Simply Created and Snow Day!

Stampin’ Up! Merry Little Christmas Simply Created and Snow Day!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Switching gears today away from Serene Silhouettes to show you the other card we are making at my three workshops this week. The first one is the Crumb Cake Serene Silhouettes card I showed you HERE, and the second one is this:

Stampin_up_snow_day_simply_created_1

It's the ADORABLE little snowman again! I combined the Merry Little Christmas Simply Created Card Kit with my favorite Holiday Catalog set, Snow Day #131892 wood-mount $26.95 or #131895 clear-mount $18.95.

Stampin_up_snow_day_simply_created_2

We are stamping the snowman body with Pool Party ink instead of Coastal Cabana, which is the blue color in the Simply Created Kit, because I like the softer look of the Pool Party ink for snow. Another BONUS about this stamp set is this: because the snowman body is "stipple-y", you really can't stamp it badly! Even if some of the ink is missing it will still look ok! The face, arms, and buttons are very easy to place on the body too!

I LOVE this kit! It has enough pre-cut and scored card bases and supplies to make 8 cards. The only additional things you need are the stamps of your choice, ink, and adhesive!

Stampin_up_merry_little_christmas_simply_created

Inside I stamped the phrase from the Merry Little Christmas stamp set #131826 wood-mount $13.95 or #131829 clear-mount $10.95. This set was designed to bundle with the Merry Little Christmas Simply Created Card Kit: #133296 wood-mount $19.95 or #133287 clear-mount $17.95.

Stampin_up_snow_day_simply_created_3

I also stamped the snowflake from Snow Day randomly on this layer with Pool Party ink.

It's a fun card! My Thursday night workshop stampers loved it and Merry Little Christmas Simply Created Card Kits were ordered!

If you love this card too and want it to be your Christmas card, you can order all the supplies to make it (in a snap!) from my Online Store:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Did I mention the kit comes with envelopes and pre-cut Real Red Polka-dotted envelope liners too? LOVE!!!!!

Well, that's all for now. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day
