Stampin’ Up! Founders Circle and a Dazzling Diamonds Snowflake!

Posted on July 24, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Now that our family vacation is over (insert frowny face) I'm back to daily blogging. This has been one CRAZY busy summer!

I didn't go to the Stampin' Up! convention this year. Last year I stayed home to help with baby Oakley. (no frowny face) This year I had to cancel again (but all is well) Friday night I received this text, "You got Founders Circle!" I'm honored and humbled to be in the Top 100 Stampin' Up! demonstrators in the U.S.

I've already registered for the Founders Circle Retreat in St George, Utah in September, my fifth since 2008. My customers, downline, and family deserve all my thanks.They stamp with me, work with me, and put up with me and my stampy chaos!

This weekend is my Christmas in July card class. Here is one card we are making, using the new Whats Up punch, new Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper, and a future hostess set:

I used Snowflake Soiree (soon retiring) on the inside with Encore Metallic Silver ink and a phrase from the new Christmas Bliss photopolymer, which is while-supplies-last.

This card was inspired by Canadian demonstrator Jackie Topa.

If you haven't RSVP'd yet for Christmas in July, please do so today!

Stampin’ Up! Wonderful Blessing Card By Sara!

Posted on December 18, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I love to open Christmas cards when they come in the mail. I love them all; the ones purchased with thougtfullness and love at the store, and family photo cards, but I especially love the hand-stamped ones I receive from my lovely stamping friends! Today's card was created by Sara Harris:

Sara used some new and some retired Stampin' Up! product for her unique layout. It has a very vintage-y feel! I won't even try to attempt to name the retired products she used, but I can tell you she used Crumb Cake cardstock for her card base and the Wonderful Blessing single stamp (#134779 $8.95) for her focal image:

I love this z-folded presentation!

As best I can tell (I haven't had time to contact Sara to ask for the answer to this question) Sara clear heat-embossed the image on Crumb Cake cardstock, then either sponged it with Illuminate Glimmer ink or retired Shimmer Paint. As a final touch she sponged the "peace on earth" phrase from the stamp with what I believe is retired Riding Hood Red ink and added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel.

I love this card!

The stamps on the Single Stamps flyer will only be available until January 31, 2014, so don't delay ordering!

That's all for now! I have another card from a stamping friend to show you tomorrow, this time one from my new downline, Angie!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Very Merry Tags!

Posted on December 13, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I finished the prep for my class later today. I used the Very Merry Tags set from the Holiday Catalog for the tags for the grab bags:

I covered the clothespins with Season of Style Washi Tape. Here are close-ups of the tags:

I used the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle, 1 3/4" Circle, Extra Large Oval, and 1 3/4" Scallop Circle for these.

Decorative Label Punch, 2 3/8" Scallop Circle, White Cardstock Vellum, and the Perfect Polka Dot Folder to emboss the vellum.

Mosaic Punch, Artisan Punch, and a bit of Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details!

Petite Curly Label punch and 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch.

The tag may say, "do not open until christmas", but guests tomorrow will be allowed to open these. The tags will be reusable, so someone may have to obey this one!

That's all for now! You can go to my Online Store HERE to shop for your stamping supplies! Just a few more days left for Christmas delivery!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Envelope Punch Board Treat Pocket!

Posted on December 2, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I have another fun project using the Envelope Punch Board today! It's another treat holder, this time using Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper, the Best of Christmas Stamp set, and the Christmas Ornament Punch!

This project is QUICK, QUICK, QUICK! Just cut your paper to size, score and punch with the Envelope Punch Board, fold, adhere with a bit of SNAIL adhesive, and embellish! After I stamped the ornament with Island Indigo ink, I punched it out with the Christmas Ornament Punch. I tied a bit of Whisper White Organza Ribbon around the pocket, then adhered the ornament to the pocket with Stampin' Dimensionals. This little pocket fits a single piece of the "G" brand chocolates perfectly!

For the final touch I added a bit of bling to the ornament with my Silver Dazzling Details! It complements the Smoky Slate in the Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper perfectly!

I used one of the stamps from the Christmas Collectibles stamp set on the back side because it already has a "to:" and "from" in it! This would be a perfect co-worker gift, wouldn't it?

In case you haven't seen the Envelope Punch Board in action, here's a video by Stampin' Up! showcasing the basics of operation and how to make a custom envelope with it:

The Envelope Punch Board #133774 $19.95 can be ordered in my Online Store:

Stampin’Up! Wonderful Blessing Ornament!

Posted on November 30, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! We had a wonderful Saturday with our house full of family, good food, fun games, a personality quiz, and lots of laughter!

Cohen & Jaxon spent the night so Johnny & Jessica & Ava could take Maddie Kate to her first Cheer Competition in Mt Vernon, and Kimmy & Liam spent the night just because! SO FUN!

My project to share with you today is another from my upcoming Christmas Catch-up Class on December 13th! If you are local to me, please let me know of your intentions to come!

We will be using the Wonderful Blessing Single Stamp to create this easy ornament. I white heat-embossed the image on Midnight Muse cardstock, then cut it out with one of the Circle Collection Framelits. I layered it on a Silver Glimmer circle, then another Midnight Muse circle. I used my hot glue gun to add the 1/8" Silver Ribbon to the back of the ornament.

Up super-close you can see the fine detail of the Wonderful Blessing image. I added just a touch of bling with a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to the Christmas star.

On the back side I covered the hot-glued ribbon with a circle of Winter Frost Specialty Designer Paper, then a Whisper White circle that I stamped with one of the phrases from More Merry Messages with Midnight Muse ink.

This is really an easy ornament. I need to make a few more of these even before the class on the 13th!

That's all for now. Thanks so much for stopping by. You can order the supplies to make your own from my Online Store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
