Stampin’ Up! Howl-o-ween Treat Birthday!

Posted on September 16, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there So many good ideas for Halloween decorating, greeting, and packaging on the hop yesterday! yay!

Today I'm sharing second card from the September Online Class. I used traditional Halloween stamps to create an out-of-the-box birthday card:

This owl wears a birthday party hat punched with the Tree Punch, and he has a banner and a balloon from the Celebrate Today set!

Into the Woods Designer Series Paper creates the cheery background, and another Into the Woods design lends a "tree trunk" look!

The balloon is cut with the Balloon Framelits, and "CELEBRATE!" is punched with the Washi Label Punch.

It's very simple to create a party hat with the Tree Punch. All you need to do is line up the bottom of the tree with the straight edge of the paper when you punch. Tree-minus-trunk = party hat!

Inside I cut a banner from more Into the Woods paper with the pennants framelit that is included in the Balloon Framelits. A sentiment from the Fabulous Four set finish it off just right!

Stampin’ Up! Big on You Love You!

Posted on May 1, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Super fast post this morning! I'm finishing my prep for my presentation tomorrow, and still have lots to do. No worries, I do my best work under pressure! I'll let you know how it goes after tomorrow.

Today's card is super quick and easy. I decided to give this final image from the Big on You set a "chalkboard" look:

I made the Basic Black and Whisper White layers a little bit smaller than I normally do, which allowed more Real Red to frame the greeting and actually gave it more "punch"!

After rubbing the Basic Black cardstock with my Embossing Buddy, I heat embossed the image with white embossing powder. I kept my embellishments frugal by only adding one tiny heart from the Hearts Border Punch with a glue dot.

My last touch was to re-rub the Basic Black layer with my embossing buddy again, but this time I didn't rub or blow off the residue. This added to the recently-erased chalkboard look.

Inside I continued my theme with a sentiment from Yippee Skippee! (which is on the retiring list) and "birthday" from the Celebrate Today set.

Stampin’Up! Big On You and Celebrate Today!

Posted on April 25, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I have a few cards created with the same layout but different colors for you today. All were created with the Big on You and Celebrate Today stamp sets from the Occasions catalog.

First, I received this card in the swap a few months ago. I had put it on my display board and one of my hostess' for this month requested to make a card similar to it. This card uses a Bermuda Bay, Whisper White, and Daffodil Delight color scheme and was created by Cindy Ewertz:

Inside Cindy's card:

I tried out a couple of other color combos with this same layout. Here's Night of Navy, Real Red, and Whisper White:

I used Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine to "tie" the twine to the balloon string.

Inside I dressed up the banner a bit more than the original using my Real Red and Night of Navy Stampin' Write Markers.

The class next week is already making the Real Red & Night of Navy Sea Street I posted HERE, so I went with Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango, and Whisper White:

I used the "HAPPY" balloon stamp from the Celebrate Today set, stamped with Tangerine Tango. All the rest of the stamping is Pacific Point, except for the polka-dots on the balloon which are Daffodil Delight.

To highlight the polka-dots, we will be adding Crystal Effects to them. They take awhile to dry so I've come up with a way to help speed-up this process. I stamped the polka dots on plain white paper, covered it with a piece of waxed paper, then used the dots as my guide to add dollops of Crystal Effects over the dots. I've let them dry overnight and now they will be ready to add to the balloons with glue dots when we have the class next week!

Inside I used the same stamp-to-paper technique for the banner and the sentiment. I used my Pacific Point and Tangerine Tango Stampin' Write Markers:

We will line the envelope with a bit of Birthday Bash Specialty Designer Paper, cut with the Envelope Liner Thinlet Die.

That's all for now! To place your order, just go to my online store HERE.
