Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day October 22nd!

Posted on October 22, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's time for Sunday Swap Day! yay! Today's swaps are all about Christmas! Double yay!

This first "shutter card" was expertly created by Mary Lang! Mary combined the Carols of Christmas set with Nature Sings and Christmas Pines, pulling it all together with traditional Christmas colors of Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, and Old Olive!

In my enthusiasm to add my watermark to these cards I apparently added it twice to this one! The Lantern Builder Thinlets and Christmas Around the World Designer Series Paper make this card a winner! Christmas Around the World DSP is part of the B3G1F Designer Series Paper Sale that ends October 31!

This card was created with the Christmas Stocking Thinlets Dies, Embossing Paste, Pattern Party Decorative Masks, Gold Glimmer Paper, and Quilted Christmas 1/4" Ribbon!

Merry Mistletoe and the Be Merry Designer Series Paper are the stars of this card! A Garden Green background embossed with the Polka Dot Basics folder perfectly sets off the rest of the card, as does the Whisper White strip punched with the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch!

Tags & Trimmings and the Trim Your Stocking thinlets were used to create this adorable stocking card. Gold embossing of the snowflakes on the vellum complements the Gold Glimmer Snowflake and ties in perfectly with the Mini Gold Sequin Trim used for the stocking hanger!

Finally, it doesn't have to be a Christmas set to make a great card! Watts of Occasions includes elements for Christmas, as well as thanks, sorry, love you, and other encouraging phrases, making it a very versatile set!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day October 1st!

Posted on October 1, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Sunday, which means it's time for Sunday Swap Day! yay! Today is a very busy Sunday for me. We have our annual Homecoming service at our church today, and my husband's nephew is preaching! There will be special music and "dinner on the grounds". I have some cooking to do this morning!

My swaps to share today are all created with the Carols of Christmas Bundle!

First, Susie Wood combined Carols of Christmas with this lovely Garden Green houndstooth print from the Be Merry Designer Series Paper pack!

She cut the evergreens from Be Merry paper and stamped the deer with Early Espresso on Crumb Cake before cutting with a Card Front Builder Thinlet die. The greeting is from the tried-and-true Teeny Tiny Wishes, punched with the Classic Label Punch. The little lined flourish under the greeting is also from Carols of Christmas.

Susie punched the background mat with the new Everyday Label Punch and finished it all off with a White Perfect Accent. Perfect!

Next, this card arrived with no creator's name, which is a shame because it's simply gorgeous! Night of Navy, Whisper White, and Silver, and instant hit! The Woodland Textured Impressions folder and the 1/8" Silver Ribbon give the perfect finishing touches.

Ruth Anne Lilley combined Soft Sky, Whisper White, and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter for her softly beautiful creation:

Monica Depung used the Carol's of Christmas Bundle with Layering Ovals Framelits:

Finally, another anonymous creator used Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla, and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper with the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Textured Impressions Folder for her rustic card:

Stampin’ Up! Yes Mam! Stampers Holiday Catalog Shoebox Swap!

Posted on August 29, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! A few of my Stampin' Up! team of demonstrators, the Yes Mam! Stampers, gathered together last night for our monthly meeting. This month we had a Shoebox Swap, which means we each designed a card, cut enough supplies for everyone at the meeting to make it, and at the meeting everyone made each other's cards!

First, Cathy Lingle used the Sneak Peek bundle, Carols of Christmas for her card. There were actually two color combos for this card; the other one was Real Red and Garden Green. I love that little deer! I would probably never fuss with hand-cutting it out, but it's so easy with the die from the Card Front Builder Thinlets!

Next, Tina Biby used the Christmas Quilt set, Christmas Quilt 6×6" Designer Series Paper, Quilted Christmas 1/4" Ribbon, and Stitched Felt Embellishments. Copper heat embossing really makes this card pop! The background trees are cut from the designer series paper.

Angela Black used the Quilted Christmas 6 x 6" Designer Series Paper stack with the Quilt Top Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to create a Christmas/birthday card featuring a Happy Birthday Gorgeous greeting punched with the new Everyday Label Punch!

Joanne Cantrell combined Silver heat-embossing with the Snowflake Sentiments set with the Swirly Snowflakes Thinlets Dies for her easy card. We adhered the intricately beautiful Silver Foil border with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and added Silver Metallic-Edged Ribbon tied in a bow.

Finally, Angie Lisk demonstrated for us the Shutter Card Fold, and then we made her swap with the same technique! Angie used the Painted Harvest set with Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper. I love fall color!

I've been dying to learn this fold! It's one of those "looks impressively hard but is actually really easy" techniques. You'll be seeing me use this one again!

The Holiday Catalog opens for ordering this Friday, September 1st! Until then, you can always order from the Annual Catalog and the updated Clearance Rack in my online store: http://bit.ly/shopwithCarolPayneStamps

Stampin’ Up! More Carols of Christmas from Vacation Stamping School!

Posted on August 22, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! One of the great things about going to Stampin' Up! events, whether sponsored by Stampin' Up! or demonstrators, is getting to see and share ideas. Everyone shares freely, inspiring and give us all a much needed boost for our business.

This freely sharing of ideas is why I can take and share so many pictures with you!

First, I do know the creator of this card, Julie Davison. Julie did her presentation using the Carols of Christmas Bundle. This card is quick and easy, using one of the bold images from Carols of Christmas, one of the two border dies, Be Merry Designer Series Paper, Cherry Cobbler 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon, and Layering Squares Framelits:

Julie also demonstrated the "Glitter Window" technique and "Double-Dutch" folds:

This card by Julie uses the moon & stars border die from the Carols of Christmas Bundle and the Sparkle Textured Impressions folder:

This card was entered into a Card Contest, thus the number attached.

A diorama fold using Carols of Christmas and the coordinating Card Front Builder Thinlets Dies:

Stampin’ Up! Carols of Christmas from Vacation Stamping School!

Posted on August 19, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! With my Colorful Seasons Class still going on today I thought I would share some of the swap pictures I took last Saturday at Vacation Stamping School. All of these are created with the Carols of Christmas Bundle that you can order this month and get a jump on creating your Christmas cards. All of the cards I'm sharing today have no creators names available, as these were entered in a card contest:

First, a lovely Whisper White and Soft Sky creation. The creator used the Marbled Background with Soft Sky ink to peek through the cut out trees, then added Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer trees in front. I love the little deer and the holly/berry touches.

Next, the creator of this beauty used a print from Be Merry Designer paper to achieve a North Pole look. Cut-out Garden Green pines were slathered with embossing paste and sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to create a awesome background for the Lots of Labels die cut greeting.

The creator of this card embossed the background with the Softly Falling Textured Impressions folder, cut a Gold Glimmer scalloped square to highlight the greeting, and added glitter to just about everything for a snowy winter wonderland look!

Finally, this creation is the perfect gift bag! Gold heat-embossing, gold die-cut accents, and Gold 3/8" Metallic-edged Ribbon all coordinate perfectly!

That's all I have time to share today, but I have more, LOTS more to share from this event!

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Eastern Beauty Day 2!

Posted on August 1, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today is the day! The day you can start using the Bonus Days coupons you earned in July! It's also the day you can start ordering Carols of Christmas stamps set, Card Front Builder Thinlets, or the Bundle with both! AND you can use your Bonus Days Coupon(s) on Carols of Christmas if you wish!

Today is also my next share with you of my "stamping my way through the catalog" series. I used the Eastern Beauty set again with the Oh Happy Day Card Kit stamp set for the inside sentiment:

I started with a Dapper Denim card base, added a Tranquil Tide 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" layer, then stamped on a 4" x 5 1/4" layer with Dapper Denim & Berry Burst. I used an Eastern Medallion Thinlet to cut the center greeting layers. Berry Burst 1/2" Finely Woven Ribbon and a few Rhinestones pull it all together.

The Oh Happy Day Card Kit stamp set is a one you can use year round. The phrase I used turns this card into a birthday card perfectly!
