Stampin’Up! Another Vivid Vases Card!

Stampin’Up! Another Vivid Vases Card!

Posted on February 20, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! In case you are wondering, the "vases" in "Vivid Vases" is pronounced "vahhhses", (at least to my ear it is). What do you think? Is it "vaces" or "vahses"?

No matter how you pronounce it, this set is just so cute and versatile. One stamp, wood-mount only, but it lends itself so well to several fun techniques. Yesterday's technique was painter's tape, and today we have the ombre' technique with punches!

This card inspired by by Amy Koenders. The card base is Strawberry Slush, layered with Whisper White embossed with the Scallops Textured Impressions Folder.

The flowers and vases are heat embossed with white powder on Rose Red, Strawberry Slush, Blushing Bride, and Pink Pirouette, then punched with the 1" Circle Punch.

The greeting is from Four You, stamped with Strawberry Slush ink BEFORE the layer is embossed.

Rhinestones add the perfect touch of bling, don't you think?

The inside layer has another greeting from Four You stamped in Strawberry Slush, as well as the Vivid Vases at the bottom.

Each small flower has been punched with the 1/2" Circle Punch, then mounted over the stamped flowers with a Stampin' Dimensional.

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

Stampin’ Up! Six-Sided Sampler for Dawn!

Posted on February 18, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! We had a lovely time tonight at Dawn's stamping party. She had requested one of the cards be made with a new set she had just ordered, Six-Sided Sampler, and this is the card I came up with:

I CASED a card by Annette Elliott. Of course, I made a few changes, but it's basically the same colors, layout, and stamps. It was a super fun card for the party tonight!

I stamped more hexagons on the inside of the card to pull the outside and the inside together. We even decorated the inside of the envelope by cutting designer paper with the Envelope Liner Framelit Die. The sentiment on the inside is from a Dozen Thoughts.

Here's the supplies you need to make this card. Just click on any of the highlighted words and you will be taken directly to my Online Store

Six-Sided Sampler Bundle (stamp set & Hexagon Punch)

A Dozen Thoughts

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! A Mish-Mash of Cards!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day! A Mish-Mash of Cards!

Posted on February 9, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there and good morning! I tried to write a post last night but for some reason I was unable to upload pictures. Thankfully it works today!

Today I have what I call a "mish-mash" of cards to show you:

This card was created with a greeting from Blooming with Kindness, blossoms from Petite Petals, Watercolor Wonder Designer Paper, and Gumball Green 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon.

Watercolor Wonder Designer Paper again for the background, with a Tea Lace Doily and a Scallop Tag Topper-punched tag. Stamps from Gorgeous Grunge and a greeting from Perfect Pennants. A medallion created with one of the Starburst Framelits, Secret Garden Framelit, 7/8" Scallop Circle punch, 1/2" Circle punch, and a Large Pearl Basic Jewel. A bit of Gold Foil Sheet an some unraveled 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon for the tag tie finish this one off.

Raspberry Ripple Petite Petals flowers highlight this Raspberry Ripple/Whisper White confection! Scoring gives the background a lattice-look, and the greeting is from Sassy Salutations.

Monstermaniacs is the focal image for this card, with Just Sayin' greeting cut out with a Word Bubble Framelit Die.

We may still have snow on the ground, but Easter is on its' way! The Decorative Dots Textured Impressions Folder creates the background for the Sweet Sorbet Pennants and image from Eggstra Spectacular stamp set!

Thats all for now. Today is a special day for our family. Ava is being baptized at church this morning! yay!
