Stampin’ Up! Halloween Happiness!

Posted on August 27, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! One of my monthly swaps arrived over the weekend and I had a chance to take photos yesterday, so here are a few using the new Holiday Catalog set, Holiday Happiness (Wood-Mount-only #131859 $9.95) :

Jan Rodrian used the birch paper ribbon from the Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit (#133463 $19.95) for the front of her card. Great out-of-the-box use for this kit! She cut the oval opening with one of the Ovals Collection Framelits (#129381 $26.95)

Linda Pagel used Witches Brew Designer Paper (#132185 $10.95) and the Chevron Textured Impressions Folder (#127749 $7.95) as her background for the Tangerine Tango (#123106 $4.75) heat-embossed image!

She used images from Halloween Hello (wood #131718 $18.95, clear #131721 $14.95) for the inside:

Mary Waring used Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets (#120805 $14.95 for twelve 12 x 12 sheets), the 1" Circle Punch (#119868 $12.95), and Orange Stampin' Glitter from the Black & Orange Stampin' Glitter pack (#132206 $7.95) to add sparkle to her card:

That's all for now! Today is another Liam day! yay! I am really enjoying spending time with him, even though it does cut into my stamping time. It is actually forcing me to be more organized so I can accomplish more in the evenings, so it's working out for the best all the way around!

Last week I got to take care of both Liam and Jaxon at Jaxon's house TWO different days! Here's Liam learning to ride on Jaxon's tractor the first day:

The second day I found Jaxon & Liam having a party jumping on Cohen's bed!

Things sure can't get boring when you hang with these guys!

I know I am very blessed! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop Slider Card!

Posted on August 26, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good Monday mornin' to you! We had a BLAST yesterday at Jessica's, celebrating our August Birthdays! Here's some glimpses of our pool time (we weren't even all in yet!):

Liam loves the water! He stayed in the whole time, almost 2 hours, and never complained at all!

Jaxon not so much. As soon as PaPa came out, he was ready to spend the rest of the afternoon on his lap!

Oakley got to dabble his toes a bit for his first outing at the pool:

Getting ready to take some underwater pics:

It truly was a lovely afternoon. I got a little bit of sun, which is hard for me because I have to be very careful with sunscreen (my face is allergic to all kinds), but no burn, so that's good!

It was an afternoon of lunch, gifts for all the August birthday peeps, pool, then supper and games! Fun!

Today's card is a slider I received in a swap in June. There are tutorials out there for this one, but I haven't personally made one yet. Hmmm. . . guess I need to figure this one out!

This one combined the Flower Shop and Mixed Bunch stamps with the Pansy and Blossom punches.

The greeting is from the Express Yourself Hostess set.

When the slider is opened it reveals a phrase from the Label Love!

That's all for now! It's a Liam day, so I'm outta here!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Wonderful Wreath Completed!

Posted on August 23, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Today is a special day! My baby boy, Ben, turns 21 today! Ahhhhhh!

Here's a recent picture of Ben:

I'm so proud of him. He has grown into a fine young man; loving, kind, thoughtful. He really thinks things through. He's working and going to school, and although he hasn't exactly found his job goal, he's still working on it!

Ben is #6 in my Payne Clan. Until Ben arrived, I always felt our family wasn't complete yet. At the dinner table, I would look around at my happy, crazy bunch of kids and I just knew we weren't all here yet. After Ben's birth, I knew I was done. He is just the icing on my cake!

Today's card you have seen before HERE, but I wanted to show you the completed card with the inside:

Wonderful Wreath and Joy to the World stamps from the Holiday Catalog were used on the card front, with the Stylish Stripes Textured Impressions folder for depth. We will be using ovals from the Large Oval and Extra Large Oval punches and a Large Rhinestone Basic Jewel to create the bow. We will be using the Cupcake Builder Punch to punch the berries for the wreath!

Inside I stamped a small image from Mosaic Madness, inked with a Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker in each corner. The verse is from another Holiday Catalog set, Christmas Messages.

That's all for now! I need to finish setting up for my Holiday Catalog Open House this afternoon!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Truly Grateful!

Posted on August 22, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning and happy Thursday to you! Just one more day until my Holiday Catalog Open House! I still have so much to do! But first today is another Liam day, AND a Jaxon day, yay!

I made today's card for the second swap I am in this month using the Holiday Catalog set, Truly Grateful, and Sweater Weather Designer Paper.

It's a pretty simple, straightforward card, nothing too complicated or fancy, but I like it alot!

Inside I used a phrase from the new Annual Catalog set, Lots of Thanks.

Here's my supply list:

Stamps: Truly Grateful, Lots of Thanks

Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, Sweater Weather Designer Paper

Ink: Chocolate Chip, Crushed Curry Classic Inkpads

Accessories: Chalk Talk Framelits, Very Vintage Designer Buttons, Linen Thread, 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon, SNAIL Adhesive, Stampin'Dimensionals, Tombow Multi-Purpose Glue (to attach the burlap ribbon to the card front. SNAIL doesn't stick to the burlap!)

That's all for now! I'm off to Liam's, then we will be going to Jaxon's while Jessica has a newborn session to shoot! Those two little guys play together really well for a 1-year and an 18-month-old!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Halloween Hello!

Posted on August 21, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! I am really excited to show you my creation today! It's a Halloween card using the Halloween Hello set from the Holiday Catalog. You will be able to see this card in person when you come to my Holiday Catalog Open House this Friday and Saturday. I also made this for one of my monthly swaps:

It's hard to see in this picture, but the little witchy is stamped with Versamark, Heat & Stick Powder, and then sprinkled with Basic Black Stampin' Glitter!

The words were stamped and the Witches' Brew Designer Washi Tape was applied to the card front FIRST before runnning through the Big Shot in the Houndstooth folder.

The glitter on the witch image was attached with Heat & Stick powder, which can be a little bit tricky. Hopefully I will have a tutorial for you for this product soon.

Come back tomorrow to see my second monthly swap!

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

Supplies:

Stamps: Halloween Hello #131718 Wood $18.95, #131721 Clear $14.95

Ink: Jet Black StazOn, Pumpkin Pie Classic, Versamark

Big Shot: Houndstooth Textured Impressions Folder

Misc: Witches Brew Designer Washi Tape, Hexagon Punch, Label Bracket Punch, Black & Orange Stampin' Glitter, Heat & Stick Powder, Heat Tool, SNAIL adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin’ Up! Hello, Lovely!

Posted on August 20, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning and happy Tuesday to you! It's another Liam day, so this will have to be quick!

Today's card is by Mary Haugen. Mary added Soho Subway Designer Paper to Crumb Cake cardstock upon which she created her own border by stamping a single stamp from the Hello, Lovely stamp set multiple times along the edge with Crumb Cake ink!

The "you MAKE ME HAPPY" greeting is from Hello, Lovely, as is the Summer Starfruit-stamped arrow. The Very Vanilla scallops were cut with the Adorning Accents Edgelits. A piece of Linen Thread was added for a bit more tactile texture!

Well, I'm off to Liam's, then he & I are headed to Jessica's to spend the day with Jaxon while she has photo sessions. Busy, busy, busy.I'm so glad Liam and Jaxon get to spend some "cousin time" together today!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
