Stampin’ Up! Endless Birthday Wishes!

Stampin’ Up! Endless Birthday Wishes!

Hey there! Today I'm sharing  another Birthday Card Buffet sample, Endless Birthday Wishes:

Stampin_up_endless_birthday_wishes_1 - Copy

I LOVE everything about this set- the fonts, the birthday cake, how EASY it is to stamp!

Cool thing about photopolymers: they are super-easy to stamp a bunch at the same time. They are super-sticky and you can see through them as you stamp! I know this isn't new news, but until Stampin' Up! offered high-quality photopolymers about a year ago, I was photopolymer-resistant. Now I am IN LOVE!

To stamp each of the words separately on the white panel would have taken FOREVER, so this is how I did it:
Stampin_up_endless_birthday_wishes_3 - Copy

Attaching them all to Block I, I laid my Whisper White panel on my Stampin' Pierce Mat, then stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink (available soon). The Stampin' Pierce Mat "gives" a little bit when you stamp, which helps with ink transfer.

After I stamped the cursive words, I stamped the typeset words separately. I found that stamping the two fonts on the same block did not work well.

I colored the cake with my Coastal Cabana and Daffodil Delight Blendabilites Markers. These alcohol-based markers will be available to order sometime later this summer.

We stamped the inside with just one phrase and the "confetti" stamp in Daffodil Delight Classic ink:

The problem: the Endless Birthday Wishes stamp set is temporarily unavailable. Ugh! All non-catalog photopolymers are while-supplies-last, so when they are sold out they generally are gone forever.

The good news: Endless Birthday Wishes will be back, at least until the second shipment sells out, so when I let you know it's available again you need to order it quick! I will post the supply list for this card at that time.

While we are waiting for Endless Birthday Wishes to come back, here's a BRAND NEW set just out today, Calling All Heroes (item 138002)

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Sunday Night!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Sunday Night!

Hey there! I've been gone all day attending my dearest cousin's retirement party. (She's been a teacher for 35 years, so now I'm starting to feel old!) This is my first opportunity today to get on here to blog

First, Audra Moncur used her Coastal Cabana Blendabilities to color the Blended Bloom image:

Stampin_up_blended_bloom

The greeting is from Petite Pairs and the embossing folder used is Beautifully Baroque.

Next, Jackie Ordway used a new hostess set, Bloom With Hope, the Moonlight Designer Paper Stack, and the Decorative Dots embossing folder to create a belly band around this sympathy card:

Stampin_up_bloom_with_hope_1

The inside sentiment is included in Bloom With Hope too:

Stampin_up_bloom_with_hope_2

Lastly, Rene Watson, used Lullaby Designer Paper and the new Num-Num stamp set for her creation:

Stampin_up_num_num

The colors are Hello Honey, Coastal Cabana, Baked Brown Sugar, and Whisper White. She used the Starburst Framelits for the Coastal Cabana layer behind the greeting, and new Coastal Cabana Thick Baker's Twine.

That's all for now. The new catalog actually starts TOMORROW at noon! Swoon! I can't wait! Demonstrators were able to pre-order from a selected offering of products on May 1st (hence the new sets used on these cards), but tomorrow all limits are off and we can order anything we want! yay!

If you need a catalog of your own, please let me know.

To place an order, just click HERE. I will send you a thank you and you will receive a Bluesox token for every $25 you spend.When you collect 12 Bluesox tokens you can  redeem them with me for a free $19.95 catalog product.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Geometrical Cheer Up! Owl!

Stampin’ Up! Geometrical Cheer Up! Owl!

Hey there! I'm back again today with another card using the Geometrical stamp set and the Owl Builder Punch. I think I'm a little obsessed, but the phrases in this set are just so different from anything we've had in awhile, I'm really diggin' it! Stampin_up_geometrical_owl_buttercup
I started with a cardbase of Coastal Cabana, then added a layer of Soft Suede that I embossed with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder. Before I embossed the Soft Suede, however, I stamped the tree branch from Take Care with Early Espresso ink so I would have something for my little owl to sit on!

Today's owl is Early Espresso with a vest of Retro Fresh Designer Paper and those adorable Gold Sequin Trim eyes!

I inked the "cheer up buttercup" stamp from Geometrical with my Tangerine Tango, Coastal Cabana, and Early Espresso Stampin' Write Markers, then stamped on a scrap of Naturals Ivory. I cut it out with one of the Word Bubbles Framelit Dies in the Occasions Catalog, then mounted it above the owl with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin_up_geometrical_peachy_keen

Inside I simply inked "you're Peach keen" from the Peachy Keen stamp set with the same markers. Those cute little "arrowheads" are inked with the same colors too and mimic the designer paper vest on the owl! I love the way Stampin' Up! coordinates several different products into a "suite"! You will find all this suite on pages 18-19 of the New Occasions Catalog.

That's all for now! Tomorrow is my "Yes, Mam! Stampers" downline meeting and I am prepping this card for the Shoebox Swap! yay!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Flowers Chalk Talk!

Good Monday morning! I have a bright and cheery card for you today using the daisy flower from the Best of Flowers 25th Anniversary set, one of the stamps from Chalk Talk, and a greeting from A Dozen Thoughts!

Wish Big 1

Cardstock colors are Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Naturals White, and Whisper White. Ink colors are Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, and Jet Black Stazon. The centers of the daisies are popped with color using a sponge dauber and Daffodil Delight ink! The "wish big" greeting was cut out with one of the Bitty Banners Framelits, then layered on a Daffodil Delight strip that was cut 1/8" wider then the greeting strip then the ends were banner-cut with Paper Snips.

Wish big 2

The inside greeting is the the June 25th Anniversary set, Best of Greetings. It was masked with a post-it note punched with the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch, then the daisy was stamped all round the edges of the mask with Daffodil Delight ink.

The bottom of the card was stamped with the miniature upsy-daisy stamp from Best of Flowers.

I'm really diggin' this card! So much so that I believe it may have to be one of my convention swaps!

What do you think? Would you like to receive this card in a swap?

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Gifts of Kindness!

Stampin’ Up! Gifts of Kindness!

Good morning! How are you doing today? I'm doing pretty good, I'm on the homestretch in the workshops this week. I actually have enjoyed the routine: get up in the morning, reorganize my workshop supplies, make sure I have enough M&T packets, then do whatever else I can fit in the day before it's time to get dressed to go. Drive to the workshop, stamp, laugh, and share with wonderful women friends, then home to submit the workshop. I could actually do with a couple of weeks like this EVERY month!

Today during the "whatever else I can fit in the day" time frame, I was able to sit down for about 30 minutes and create this using my new Gifts of Kindness stamp set!


Gifts of kindness 1
The card base is Beautifully Baroque-embossed Sahara Sand, layered with a strip of Afternoon Picnic Designer Paper. I inked the main floral image from Gifts of Kindness with Pear Pizzazz and Coastal Cabana Stampin' Write Markers, stamped on Very Vanilla, then cut out with one of the new Deco Labels Collection Framelits. The Modern Label-punched "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" is also from Gifts of Kindness. I love the font used for all the words and phrases in this set!

Here's the fun part of this card – it's a diorama card!


Gifts of kindness 3

Close up:


Gifts of kindness 2

Pretty neat, yes?

The inside window of the diorama is cut also cut with one of the Deco Labels Collection Framelits!

I have some ideas about this card, but you are going to have to wait to find out what they are! Hopefully you won't have to wait too long!

Well, that's all for now! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
