Stampin’ Up! Fun Snow Day!

Posted on September 9, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning and happy Monday! I have a fun card for you today! We are going to make this card this coming weekend at my Christmas Card Class! Want to come?

I started with a Pool Party base, then added a layer of Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper. Another layer of Pool Party, then a Whisper White layer that I stamped with the Snow Day snowman with Pool Party ink. I created his hat by stamping with Versamark on a Silver Foil Sheet, then heat-embossed with Silver Embossing Powder. I hand-trimmed the hat with my Paper Snips. "oh WHAT fun" from Christmas Messages was silver heat-embossed on Whisper White, then punched with the Label Bracket Punch. Another Pool Party-punched Label Bracket was cut diagonally to mat behind the first label, then I punched a Silver Foil Sheet with the Extra Large Oval Punch to mat behind it all.

Inside is stamped with another phrase from Christmas Messages in Versamark, then silver-embossed. The snowflakes and "warm wishes" phrase are stamped in Pool Party.

Well, that's all for now! I really excited about my class this weekend! Hope you can come!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Cards From Friends!

Posted on September 8, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Instead of my usual "Sunday Swap Day", I have a small collection of cards I have recently received from stamping friends/customers to share with you today. Let's get started!

From Angie Lisk. I love the multiple pennants Angie cut and layered on this card. Pretty much all of the supplies are retired (Angie is a faithful customer!), with the exception of the three Candy Dots in the upper left. Candy Dots are a colorful way to add the look of brad without the holes to pierce or the bulk of the brad legs! Similar to Pearl or Rhinestone Basic Jewels, they are self-adhesive!

From Becky Anderson. Becky's cards are always so calm and peaceful. She is a dear friend I do not get to see often enough!

From Crystal Lopez. Crystal is another faithful stamping friend. She used the current Stippled Blossoms and the "hello" from My Friend. Her color combo is Pool Party, Island Indigo, Gumball Green, Wisteria Wonder, and Rich Razzleberry. I love the splotches of color she created with reinker and a water mister! Crystal is a true color artist.

Last but not least, Meg Wheeler, my dear fellow demonstrator friend, created this lovely card. Meg used a bit of retired Sale-a-bration paper, then paired it with Papillon Potpourri stamps and the Bitty Butterfly punch (on sale this month!), as well as Ovals Collection Framelits. The "hey there friend" greeting is from the My Paper Pumpkin first monthly kit you receive when you subscribe, so it's still available!

That's all for now! Of course it's Sunday, and there will be lots of family here for lunch after church so I need to fly!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing!

Posted on September 6, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! We interrupt "What to Washi Week" to bring you this brand spankin' new creation:

I created this with the new Wonderful Blessing single stamp (#134779 $8.95). I gold heat-embossed the image, along with Flowering Flourishes images on Midnight Muse cardstock.

I decided to use the "Double Door" or "Gatefold" layout. Here's the basic design:

Cut two card bases
8 1/2” x 4 ¼”. Score each at 2 1/8” and 4 ¼” on the 8 ½” side with Simply
Scoring Tool. Use the smaller end of the scoring tool to score your lines. This
lets the folds come together more closely when you put the card together. Fold
both bases into a “z” shape as shown in picture #2. Attach 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” sections
to each other to form card back with SNAIL.

I then cut the circles for the "doors" with the Circles Collection Framelits. It's not easy to describe this step. Maybe I will do a video for this card soon, we'll see! Leave me a comment if you would like to see this card in a video!

I'm lovin' how this card turned out!

The "merry christmas" is from Teeny Tiny Wishes, embossed on Midnight Muse and punched with the Word Window punch. I punched some of the new Gold Foil sheets with the Modern Label punch to layer behind it.

That's all for now! I'm going to read to my grandson, Cohen, in his kindergarten class today for Grandparent's Day, so we shall see what I accomplish after I get home!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! What to Washi Week! Gingham Garden!

Posted on September 5, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning and happy Thursday! Liam is here today! In a different routine today, Liam's daddy dropped him off at my house with me for a few hours while he takes care of some things, then he is picking him back up and taking him home for the rest of the day. So I'm getting my "Liam fix" today! yay! I admit it, I'm crazy about him!

Today's card is one I CASED from a Convention Board sample I found online:

Gingham Garden Washi Tape on a Whisper White layer, attached to an Island Indigo card base. A greeting from Yippee Skippee, stamped in Melon Mambo, is accented by an Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack scallop flower in Daffodil Delight. The flower is finished off with a Rhinestone Basic Jewel.

The Bitty Butterfly frame (Bitty Butterfly Punch is on sale in the Butterfly Bundle 15% off!)

Download the flyer here:

Download Flyer_ButterflyBundle_Demo_8.29-9.30.2013_US

was created in the same way as the Mosaic Punch ornament shown HERE. The Melon Mambo cardstock was punched with the Bitty Butterfly punch FIRST, then the Artisan Label was punched around it. I embossed with the Perfect Polka Dot Textured Impressions Folder before attaching it over the Gingham Garden Designer Washi Tape with Stampin'Dimensionals.

Here's my inside:

More Gingham Garden Washi Tape, accented by the Bitty Butterfly punched out of the frame on the card front with a tiny Rhinestone Basic Jewel! The verse is from Remembering Your Birthday.

That's all for now! Hope you have a chance to create & play a bit today!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! What to Washi Week! Witches’ Brew!

Posted on September 4, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Have you had a chance to view my first video yet? If not, go back to yesterday's post and follow the Youtube link to check it out!

Today's card for "What to Washi Week!" uses the Witches' Brew Designer Washi Tape in an unconventional way. Just like my baby card I posted HERE, I used the same skull-patterned roll from the pack, only this time I created a BIRTHDAY card!

The greeting is from the Photopolymer set, Bombs Away Birthday, which is what gave me the idea to pair the stamp with the washi tape. I then created the skull and crossbones by punching a Basic Black owl with the Owl B uilder punch, trimming off the owl's ears and feet, then punching two Modern Label punches and hand-trimming them to look more bone-like! The skulls' eyes are Whisper White punched with the largest circles in the Owl Builder punch.

Inside I used a strip of the Witches' Brew Designer Washi Tape again, then stamped the "happy birthday" bomb stamp from Bomb's Away Birthday.

That's all for now, but who knows what else I may come up with to share with you?

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
