Stampin’ Up! Happy Watercolor!

Posted on February 7, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today is my "Happiest Day" class for February! yay! I love to play with my stamps all on my own, but I love it even more when friends come over to play with my stamps with me!

Today's card is one we will be making in class using the Happy Watercolor stamp set from the Occasions Catalog. This card is inspired by a swap I received from Tamra Davis at Leadership last month:

We are using the Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Folder on the card front, then stamping a flower stem from Simple Stems and adding Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper (free with a $50 order from the Sale-a-bration brochure!) flowers punched with the Pansy and Petite Petals Punches. The greeting is stamped and punched with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, then layered on piece of Sweet Sorbet paper that has also been punched with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch!

The Crisp Cantaloupe Twine is from the Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack (free with a $50 order from the Sale-a-bration brochure!). We are piercing a hole through the card front with a Paper-Piercing Tool to thread the twine through before tying in a bow.

Inside we are stamping with a sentiment from Delightful Dozen with Jet Black StazOn ink, then stamping with another free Sale-a-bration item, Petite Petals, with Crisp Cantaloupe, Pool Party, and Pistachio Pudding.

Stampin’ Up! Happenings Simply Created Card Kit!

Posted on February 6, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I have some of my Leadership Presentation and Sale-a-bration Kick-off projects to show you today!

I created the box using a card from the On Its Way Simply Sent Card Kit and a Bermuda Bay cardstock base stamped with the free Sale-a-bration Petal Parade stamps. I added a heart, buttons and a silver glimmer strip from the Happenings Simply Created Card Kit, then stamped the banners with the Banner Blast stamp set and punched them with the Banner Punch. Rhinestones give it the final touch!

We stamped 5 cards with more of the supplies from the Happenings Simply Created Card Kit. The Smokey Slate hearts on the card on the lower right were sponged by laying the stencil left after punching out the spotted hearts in the kit!

Here's my class handout for these projects, including the dimensions and directions for the box:

Stampin’Up! Sweet Sayings Cards & Envelopes!

Posted on February 4, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I have a trio of cards to show you today. I created them using the Sweet Sayngs Cards & Envelopes from the "Whole Lot of Love" flyer of products that has been extended until February 14.

This 12 pack of card and coordinating envelopes is not just for valentines:

First, an easter card using the Blessed Easter wood-mount single stamp, the Happy Day stamp set, Pool Party 1/2" Seam Binding, and the Scallop Tag Topper punch!

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Blessings from Heaven, then breathed on the left-over ink on the Blessed Easter stamp to re-moisten so I could stamp again in the lower left corner. The Sweet Sayings pack has four each of Crisp Cantaloupe, Pool Party, and Read Red envelopes, so I stamped with the medallion stamp from Happy Day with Crisp Cantaloupe ink on the matching envelope!

Next, I used more stamps from Happy Day, Pool Party 1/2" Seam Binding, and the Scallop Tag Topper Punch again to create this fun little general-greeting card. I added a few Rhinestones to give it a little "pop"!

This time I stamped on the Pool Party envelope that comes with the Sweet Sayings cards to keep the coordination going!

Finally, I used the Language of Love stamp set to create a valentine! I stamped my images with Real Red, Crisp Cantaloupe, and Pool Party. The heart with the love sentiments in many languages was punched with the Full Heart punch, and I fussy-cut the banners and pennant with my Paper Snips. I backed the heart with a Real Red one cut with one of the Hearts a Flutter Framelits. I punched a little half-circle with an Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack punch on each side of the card front to help anchor the Pool Party Twine from the FREE SAB Sweet Sorbet Accessory Pack.

I hope you've enjoyed my trio of cards. I love how Stampin' Up! has been giving us so many more kit options lately that have pre-cut, pre-scored card bases and envelopes! It makes card making a snap!

To order the Sweet Sayings Cards & Envelopes #134609 $5.95 click HERE to go to my Online Store. I am currently working on sending out my Bluesox Rewards, you receive a "virtual token" for every $25 you spend (before tax & shipping) Collect 12 and you can choose a $19.95 stamp set free from me.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Watercolor to the Moon!

Posted on February 3, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It was a "Liam day" today, the first one since before Christmas! yay! Logan and Ben are taking turns going up to Kimmy's house to keep him but today Logan didn't feel real great so Liam's daddy dropped him off here this morning. Liam & I had fun sorting through the toybox! I actually always enjoyed doing that when my kiddos were little. I enjoy putting all the pieces back together, and they enjoy rediscovering the toys after they are re-assembled! I also cleaned out my bathroom sink cabinet, courtesy of Liam's "encouragement"! He loves to pull out the drawers and open the doors while I am brushing my teeth, so afterwards we just cleared it all out, pitched out the old or not used anymore, then rearranged! Not necessarily what I thought I would do with my day, but hey, grandbabies don't stay babies very long do they? The rest of it can wait!

Alisa & Oakley came over for awhile later in the afternoon and we had fun putting Oakley and Liam in the tub together too! All in all a FUN day!

I have a new card to show you. I created this one last week while finishing my prep for my SAB Kickoff using the Happy Watercolor, Hardwood, and Love You to the Moon stamp sets from the Occasions Catalog:

I stamped the flower and the phrase on two pieces of Watercolor Paper, then cut out the flower with an Apothecary Accents Framelit. I stamped the watercolor "smear" (is that what it is? I'm not sure!) behind the blossom with Pool Party ink, then used an Aquapainter to blur the ink over the paper.

I stamped the Hardwood stamp with Crumb Cake ink on the Baked Brown Sugar layer. After adding the half a Tea Lace Doily, 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon, and my stamped elements I spritzed it all with Vanilla Smooch Spritz, then added a tiny flower punched with one of the punches from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and a Pearl Basic Jewel in the center!

Inside I did not re-ink the Hardwood stamp, I just breathed on the rubber to re-moisten the ink before stamping on a layer of Very Vanilla. I added the "thanks for being mine" from Love You to the Moon with Crumb Cake ink.

That's all for now. To order Happy Watercolor, Hardwood, or Love You to the Moon, click HERE to go to my Online Store.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Vivid Vases and Sweet Sorbet!

Posted on February 2, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! We started our day with a glaze of ice on the ground and cars, but we still had church, morning and evening, so the day has been a good one! Most of our family was here for lunch, and I kept the three littlest grandsons in the nursery tonight at church, so I've had a really good day!

If you checked out my upcoming classes post on Saturday you got a glimpse of this card, which is part of my Vivid Vases Class later this month:

We all received Vivid Vases as one of our Leadership stamp sets. It's so nice that Stampin' Up! will give us a heads-up before an event so we can choose to not purchase a set we are going to receive with our event check-in!

I paired it with the Pool Party/Whisper White/Basic Black print from the Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper Pack (free with a $50 order!) to coordinate with the Card-in-a-Box I showed you a few days ago. I chose to paper-piece a couple of the vases using my Paper Snips, then used a Pool Party Stampin' Write Marker and a White Stampin' Chalk Marker to color in and/or highlight the remaining ones. I stamped the envelope with the same stamp with Pool Party ink.

I thought this phrase from Starburst Sayings coordinated well with the greeting on the front. I stamped the vases on the bottom edge with Pool Party ink on the Pool Party cardstock.

It's a pretty simple card that wouldn't take alot of supplies to do:

Vivid Vases #133818 wood-mount only $11.95

Starburst Sayings #133182 wood-mount $25.95, #133185 clear-mount $18.95

Starburst Framelit Dies #132967 $26.95

(Starburst Sayings stamps & framelits are also available in bundles, both wood and clear-mount at a 15% savings!)

Pool Party #122924, Basic Black #121045, and Whisper White #100730 cardstock

Whisper White 5/8" Organza Ribbon #114319 $5.95

Pool Party inkpad #126982 & marker (not for sale individually, it is only available as part of the Subtles Marker Pack#131263 $28.95 for 10 markers)

Paper Snips #103579 $9.95

Jet Black StazOn pad #101406 $7.95

White Stampin' Chalk Marker #132133 $3.50

Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper (FREE with a $50 order!)
