Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Happiest of Birthdays!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Happiest of Birthdays!

Hey there! I have another Artistically Inked birthday card to share with you today. I combined this bundle with the Happiest of Birthdays set to create this:

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps2

I love this big bold greeting from Happiest of Birthdays! I stamped it with Blackberry Bliss ink, then added Fresh Freesia blooms all around with Soft Succulent leaves.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps3

The leaves from the Artistic Dies is so gorgeous! I cut it with Gold Foil, then bent the stems a little extra to fit the 4" width of the card front. I put an Adhesive Sheet on the back of the Gold Foil before running it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss to make adhering the leaves to the card a snap!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps5 (2)

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Tasteful Touches and a few more Fresh Freesia/Soft Succulent blooms. I used a paper saving trick before adhering the gold foil mat to the stamped layer.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_happiest_of_birthdays_carolpaynestamps5 (1)

 I used a Rectangle Stitched Die to cut out the center of the gold layer. I used the frame behind the inside layer and kept the solid rectangle for a later project!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Thanks!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Thanks!

Hey there! Today I have another card I created with the Artistically Inked Bundle. If you have been visiting my blog this week, you know I've been featuring this bundle every day since Monday. Today I used the Gold & Rose Gold Metallic 6" x 6" Specialty Paper to create this:

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_magenta_madness_carolpaynestamps1 (2)

I cut the Gold Metallic paper (it's really a glimmer paper, but the photo doesn't show you how sparkly this die-cut really is) with one of the Artistic Dies. I added it with strategically placed glue dots.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_magenta_madness_carolpaynestamps2

This gold striped paper is from the Expressions In Ink Specialty paper pack. I stamped the "thanks" from the Artistically Inked stamp set directly on the paper, embossing with Clear Embossing Powder. Stamping on the gold stripes makes the word look like it is behind them!

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_magenta_madness_carolpaynestamps3 (2)

Inside I used a sentiment from Peaceful Moments to coordinate with the greeting on the front.

Stampin_up_artistically_inked_magenta_madness_carolpaynestamps4 (2)

I stamped the same image I had stamped on the inside layer all around the Magenta Madness card front with Magenta Madness to add texture and depth to the card front.

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Triple Time!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Triple Time!

Hey there! If you have been following my blog, you know how much I like the Triple Time technique. I decided to create a couple of cards with this technique and the Artistically Inked stamp set to share with you today:

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps1 (2)

I created two versions, one simply stamped, and the other stamped and then embossed with the Pretty Flowers folder.

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps2 (2)

After stamping and assembling all of the layers, I stamped the greeting from Artistically Inked in Tuxedo Black ink.

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps3

Everything stamped on these cards comes from the Artistically Inked stamp set.

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps4 (2)

For my second card I stamped the Triple Time layers like my first card, then ran them through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine before assembling the layers.

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps5 (2)

I also added Soft Succulent ink to the embossing with a Blending Brush. Like the first card, I tied a bit of Soft Succulent 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon in a knot around the top layers.

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps6

I used the Soft Succulent In Color Jewels for a bit of sparkle!

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps7

Inside with a bit of blended Soft Succulent.

Stampin_up_triple_time_artistically_inked_carolpaynestamps8 (2)

Card Measurements:

Soft Succulent base & mat layers: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored & folded at 4 1/4, 3 1/2" x 4 1/2", 2 1/4" x 3 1/2"

 Basic White layers: 4" x 5 1/4", 3" x 4 1/4", 2" x 3 1/4" inside layer: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Sneak Peek!

Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow Sneak Peek!

Hey there! Today I have a Sneak Peek to share with you I created with one of the pre-order bundles demonstrators were able to get early, Quiet Meadow! This card is also a sneak peek of one of the new In Colors, Soft Succulent!

IMG_1856 (2)

This is a very simple card. I actually was able to cut, stamp, and assemble 21 of these in a single evening for my monthly swap card. That never happens! I used the splatter stamp from the Quiet Meadow set to add the splatters to the Basic White layer before I embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I used stamped-off-once Soft Succulent ink. I added the  Soft Succulent flower cut with a Meadow Die (I added a layer of Adhesive Sheet to the back of the card stock before cutting. Adhesive Sheets make adhering delicate die-cuts like this one so much easier!) I then added a bow tied with new Soft Succulent 3/8" In Color Open Weave Ribbon.

IMG_1859 (2)

"Thinking of You" is also from the Quiet Meadow set.

The inside sentiment is also from Quiet Meadow.

Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Criss-Cross Card!

Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Criss-Cross Card!

Hey there! Today I have a new technique to share with you! I didn't invent it, but I don't actually know the name for it, so I'm calling it a "criss-cross card". I used retiring Flowers For Every Season 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper and the retiring So Sentimental Bundle to create this:

Stampin_up_so_sentimental_carolpaynestamps1

I used one piece of designer series paper, cut at the diagonal from two corners, then flipped two of the sections over to use the opposite side. Here's a couple of pictures that explain it a little more:

I put two opposite corners of the 3 3/4" x 5" piece of designer paper rectangle along the cutting track of my paper trimmer, then cut to create two equal-sized triangles. Keeping the  rectangle pushed together, I turned it 180 degrees so the un-cut corners are now lined up with the cutting track.

Cutting 1

After the second cut, you will have four triangles.

Cutting 2

The greeting is from the retiring stamp set, So Sentimental. The Stitched So Sweetly Dies it is bundled with are not retiring, but you need to order the bundle before May 3rd because not only will the stamp set be gone forever, the 10% savings will be too. The Just Jade 1/4" In Color Ribbon is also retiring.

Stampin_up_so_sentimental_carolpaynestamps2

The card base is a super-easy z-fold!

Stampin_up_so_sentimental_carolpaynestamps3

The inside sentiment is also from So Sentimental.

Stampin_up_so_sentimental_carolpaynestamps5

Card dimensions:

Just Jade base: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2"

Misty Moonlight layer: 5 1/4" x 4" -need two   greeting mat: 3" x 4"

Flowers For Every Season layer: 3 3/4" x 5"  inside strip: 1/2" x 4 3/4"

Basic White greeting: 2 1/2" x 3"  inside layer: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"
