Stampin’Up! Daydream Medallions Wreath!

Stampin’Up! Daydream Medallions Wreath!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I am sharing my final project from my November Christmas Card Class using the Gift Bow Bigz L Die, Daydream Medallions stamps, Floral Frames Framelits, and Beautifully Baroque Textured Impressions Folder:
Stampin_up_joy_to_the_world_1

The card base is Pear Pizzazz, sponged with Pear Pizzazz ink after embossing. I stamped the "wreath" with Always Artichoke ink before cutting out with the Floral Frames Framelit. I sponged the wreath edges with Always Artichoke ink too.

I cut the bow from Season of Style Designer Paper, then added a Vintage Faceted Button and a Rhinestone with Glue Dots.

The "joy to the world" greeting is from the Holiday Catalog set, Joy to the World, was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink, sponged in Always Artichoke ink, and cut out with a Chalk Talk Framelit.

Inside the card I used the smallest of the Daydream Medallions stamps as mini-wreaths with Always Artichoke ink. I stamped the "wishing you Christmas Cheer. . ." from Christmas Messages with Cherry Cobbler ink and sponged the edges with Always Artichoke.

That's all for now. Thanks so much for coming by to see me today. I'm working on the cards for my Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack for this Saturday and Monday now. I will start showing you those tomorrow. Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Calm Christmas Sprinkle Embossed!

Stampin’ Up! Calm Christmas Sprinkle Embossed!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I tried a fun new technique for one of my SWOW class projects – Sprinkled Embossing! Lookie:

Calm 1

These pictures really don't do it justice, but it's still quite pretty!

Calm 2

I used the Holiday Catalog set, Calm Christmas, with the Circles Collection Framelits and Champagne Glimmer Paper.

Sprinkled Embossing is a variation of traditional heat embossing: stamp your image with Versamark, then instead of sprinkling the image with just one color, you use your fingers or a small spoon to sprinkle the image with several colors of powder, tap off the excess, then heat! I didn't hold the stamped image over the powder containers as I sprinkled like I usually do, I held it over a paper plate instead. The mixed colors of leftover powder can either be discarded or used together on another image to achieve a totally different look! I used Gold for the olive branch, then Pool Party and Tempting Turquoise for the bird. At first I thought I should sprinkle sparingly, but I wasn't very happy with the result. My next try I sprinkled heavily and was very pleased!

This card is really gorgeous in real life! I wish you could see it for yourself!

That's all for now. I'm hoping to be able to get in to see a dr at a walk-in clinic Saturday so I can start getting rid of this annoying sinus infection and cough I've been dealing with for several days.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Tidings!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Tidings!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I want to share this card I created for my Christmas Card Class this Friday using Christmas Messages, Pretty Print Textured Impressions Folder, Silver Glimmer Paper, Deco Label Framelits, Winter Frost Designer Specialty Paper, and White Organza Ribbon! My cardbase is a Smokey Slate Cut & Ready Card Base. I love using them when I need to get a project ready in a hurry!

Joyful tidings 1
I used my Island Indigo Stampin' Write Marker to add a little bit of color on the edges of the focal image, then added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to the center of the "o" in "joyful".

Joyful tidings 2
I repeated the Deco Labels on the inside, using the Prince of Peace Single Stamp and the "merry christmas" from Teeny Tiny Wishes punched with the Word Window Punch on the side.

Well, I've got to finish everything for my classes! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
