Stampin’Up! Yes Mam’s Shoebox Swap Card #6!

Stampin’Up! Yes Mam’s Shoebox Swap Card #6!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! Today's final Shoebox Swap card is brought to you by Tudy Hoffman!

Tudy chose Primrose Petals, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, and Very Vanilla for her cardstock colors. The bottom edge of the Primrose Petals layer was embossed with one of the Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Folders. The stamp set she used was Papaya Collage, a stamp set I purchased at the beginning of the last catalog but have never really used much-I think I'm inspired! The bird stamp was inked using Early Espresso, Soft Suede and Primrose Petals Stampin' Write Markers, the and gingko-like branches were stamped with Gumball Green. Victoria Crochet Trim added to the Crumb Cake helps to add a vintage look. The edges of the Very Vanilla Top Note layer were sponged with Soft Suede ink. The new Very Vanilla Vintage Button was threaded with a Linen Thread bow, then added to the card with a Glue Dot.

A full Very Vanilla Top Note was used on the inside, stamped with the Papaya Collage images and sponged again with Soft Suede ink.

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

Stampin’Up! Yes Mam’s! Shoebox Swap Card #3, #4, & #5!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! I have THREE card ideas for you today, brought to you by Martha Swift, Kristen Hoffman, and Sherry Chrisman!

Martha's card uses the yummy color combo of Strawberry Slush and Whisper White! Martha embossed the Strawberry Slush layer with the Stripes Textured Impressions Folder, punched the lower edge with the Scallop Edge Border Punch, then added Gingham Garden Designer Paper cut with the Ovals Collection Framelits! Inside the oval opening we stamped the "Hello" from Lacy & Lovely with Basic Gray ink, then added a Strawberry Slush-stamped flower from Secret Garden cut with one of the Secret Garden Framelits. A Primrose Petals In-Color Dahlia coordinates wonderfully with the Strawberry Slush color! I love the crisp, clean lines of this card!

Martha 1

One of my newest recruits, Kristen, designed this quick-and-easy card using a set I've always admired but never have gotten around to ordering, Bootiful Occasions! Kristen chose Midnight Muse and Cherry Cobbler for her colors. The Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Seam Binding ribbon really pulls this simple design together!

Kristen

Sherry Chrisman's design combines  the beautiful Swallowtail butterfly stamp with Crisp Cantaloupe ink! For a bit of bling she heat-embossed the phrase from Million & One with Silver Embossing Powder on Brushed Silver cardstock and added one tiny Basic Jewel Rhinestone. The edges of this layer were cut with the Large Scallop Edgelit. Brushed Silver-punched Bitty Butterflies finish this card off beautifully!

Sherry 1

That's all for today! I will be back tomorrow with one more Shoebox Swap creation by Tudy Hoffman!

Hope your day Stampingrox!

Flower frog

Yes, it IS a "Flower Frog", and antique now from bygone florist days that was used to anchor flower arrangements, but has been repurposed to hold cards for display by Stampin' Up! Demonstrators and cardmaking enthusiasts:

Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Meadow from Fiji!

Stampin’ Up! Wildflower Meadow from Fiji!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! Hope you have a happy day ahead! I am looking forward to my day. I get to spend a good chunk of it with Alisa. We have a little baby-Oakley shopping trip planned for today! I can't wait!

We received the Wildflower Meadow stamp set in Fiji in addition to Kind & Cozy, so there were several samples on the board with this set too!

Crumb Cake is a perfect card base to white heat-emboss the entire Wildflower Meadow image on! The "THANKS SO MUCH" phrase is from the carried-over stamp set, Oh Hello!

Wildflower meadow 1

Stampin' Write Markers add the color need to achieve this almost-watercolored look! Some Gingham Garden Washi Tape and a marker-inked partial "with love" from Kind & Cozy are all this card needs!

Wildflower meadow 2

White heat-embossed again, but this time on Daffodil Delight creates an adorable little 4" x 4" square card.  A tiny banner of Gingham Garden Designer Paper and a Linen Thread bow offset the "so kind of you" from Sweet Essentials. Perfect!

Wildflower meadow 3

Last-but-not-least, Wildflower Meadow was stamped on a Tea Lace Doily with Daffodil Delight ink again, with a background of Gingham Garden Designer Paper and splash-stamping with Gorgeous Grunge. The greeting is from Blessings from Heaven, and there's a little strip of Gingham Garden Washi Tape peeking out from behind the Linen Thread and Vintage Faceted Button!

Wildflower meadow 4

Well, I'm out of here to go meet Alisa so we can start our day-out together!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Washi Tape!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Washi Tape!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! How are you on the first day of summer? I thought I would share this bright and happy samples from the Gingham Garden Suite board in Fiji!

You know, if I hadn't taken so many pictures while in Fiji I would have a hard time believing I was actually there!  Now that I've been home a little more than  a month it seems like a dream! And that is exactly what it was, a DREAM VACATION!!!!

Washi tape 1

This first card has Gingham Garden Washi Tape layered onto a piece of scrap cardstock, then cut out with the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die and the Big Shot! REALLY LOVE this idea!

Washi tape 2

This card has strips of Gingham Garden Designer Paper with Gingham Garden Washi Tape layered on top with a greeting from Kind & Cozy and a Daffodil Delight 1/2" Seam Binding bow! The addition of the Small Heart Punch embellishment is just perfect!

That's all for today! I have my monthly class with my Galatia Crafty Chicks today! FUN!

Enjoy your longest day of the year! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
