Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day for the Babies!

Posted on April 13, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Sunday again, which means it's the day I share more of my swaps! yay!

Today I have three adorable baby cards for you! Let's get started!

First up is a card that has no name on it, but it sure is cute! The creator cut her "bib" with the Ovals Collection Framelits from Whisper White cardstock and Blushing Bride Patterns Designer Paper.

A close up shows the detail of the punched greeting from Label Love using the Artisan Label Punch, 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch, and the banner cut with one of the Butty Banner Framelits.

A side view shows this is a completely bib-shaped card:

Our next creation is by Kathy Johnson. Kathy used the Circle Framelits to create her "teddy bear"!

Up close you can see that she used the Fringe Scissors to cut this girly teddy's eyelashes:

Another fully-shaped card using lots of scallop circle and circle punches, small heart punch, Crumb Cake 1/2" Seam Binding, Word Window Punch, Boho Blossoms Punch, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, Silver Baker's Twine, and a Pearl Basic Jewel.

Finally, Tamie Ackerson created an adorable "onesie" card from a template you can find online. She embossed the Whisper White with the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder, and edged it with Strawberry Slush 3/8" Ruffled Stretch Trim. She chose to stamp the lion from Zoo Babies with Strawberry Slush for her circle-punched medallion.

Inside she simply stamped a phrase from Cuddles & Kisses!

Babies DO make your heart happy, don't they?

That's all for now. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Sunday Swap Day Cuddles & Kisses!

Posted on September 22, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I had a fun day today! The girls had a wedding to shoot, which is not uncommon for Saturdays, especially in the fall, but the neat thing today was that I got to baby-sit both Liam AND Oakley! A 13-month old and a 2-month old! Wow, things were really hopping around here for awhile! Liam is fascinated by Oakley. He is very careful around him and mostly just likes to watch him wiggling and kicking in the swing. Needless to say, I had no time for blogging while they were here!

One of my monthly swaps arrived today, and it was fabulous! The theme this month was cards that move, with a focus on the Thinlet Card Dies. In honor of Liam & Oakley today, I'm going to share the two baby cards from the swap!

First up, Audra Moncur used Embellished Events with Cuddles & Kisses and the Circle Thinlet Card Die:

She used Coastal Cabana & Whisper White cardstock, 2013-2015 In-Color Designer Paper, the Perfect Polka Dot Textured Impressions Folder, Daffodil Delight ink and Basic Black ink.

Inside she repeated the ducky from the front on the extra fold. I will have to show you how to do this, won't I? The verse is from Cuddles and Kisses in Basic Black.

I LOVE these flip cards, don't you? Back in the day when I first started as a Stampin' Up! demo, I learned how to make a flip card, but is was all squares and the folds had to be scored with the paper trimmer, then the flip part had to be individually cut with the trimmer too. It could be done, but now the Thinlet Card Dies and the Big Shot make it SO EASY!!!!

Next, Lorraine Duran partnered Soft Sky, So Saffron, and Whisper White with the Baby Prints and Cuddles & Kisses stamp sets for a softer look. Surprisingly, the Designer Series Paper is from the Winter Frost Designer Paper Stack! She used the same Perfect Polka Dots folder on the front flap, along with a So Saffron ink-dyed 3/8" White Taffeta Ribbon. A neat benefit of the Thinlet Card Dies; they come with more than just the basic die to cut and score the card! The Circle Thinlet Card Die has a total of 10 dies in the set! The So Saffron scallop circle on this card was cut with one of these dies and is created to fit perfectly! No joke!

Open the card "flips" to show the "it's a boy" from Baby Prints, and the extra added flap again provides more room for the Cuddles & Kisses sentiment. Lorraine also sponged a bit of So Saffron ink around the scallop circle on this side to keep the color continuity going.

That's all for today! To order your Thinlet Card Dies or any of the other supplies used to make these cards, just click on the Shop Now! button in the upper right side of my blog to shop and place yoru order at my open-24-7 Online Store.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Zoo Babies!

Posted on August 17, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Another baby card for you today, this time with the Zoo Babies stamp set. This card is another from my monthly swap group, but I can't remember who made this one!

This one is pretty basic, just stamp and punch, stamp and punch, stamp and punch with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch. (ALWAYS stamp FIRST, then punch!) Next layer onto Baked Brown Sugar 1 3/8" Circles. The "congratualtions" in included in the set, how convenient!

Inside, more stamped Zoo Babies, then a verse from Cuddles & Kisses, and you are done!

Oh, and the card base and ribbon is Strawberry Slush, making this card perfect for either a boy or a girl!

That's all for now. I'm getting ready to go to a family reunion this afternoon at Lincoln, IL. Three hours in the truck each way gives me lots of time to work on some things I've had waiting for my attention for awhile! So nice my hubby prefers to drive!

Until tomorrow, which is Sunday Swap Day, have a Stampingrox! day!

Posted on July 20, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hi there! It's Saturday, and I'm lovin' on my newest grandson, Oakley, this morning! God is so good!

Just wanted to share with you the card I created for the gift (one of many!) I brought to the hospital for Oakley. Alisa likes the pirate/skulls motif, so I used the new Witches Brew Designer Washi Tape from the upcoming Holiday Catalog starting August 1st to create this little gem!

Although it's very hard to see in the picture, I layered the washi tape on my Whisper White layer, then embossed with the Stripes Textured Impressions folder!

Not much time for chatting today, so here's a quick list of supplies used:

Stamps: Cuddles & Kisses

Paper: Island Indigo, Basic Black, Whisper White, Regals Designer Paper Stack, Neutrals Designer Paper Stack

Ink: Jet Black StazOn

Accessories: Witches Brew Designer Washi Tape, Big Shot, Stripes Textured Impressions Folder, Hexagon Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Label Bracket Punch (also available starting August 1st in the Holilday Catalog!

Paper Trimmer, SNAIL adhesive, Paper Snips, Stampin' Dimensionals

That's all for now! Tomorrow is another Sunday Swap Day Share, so come back and see me! Until then have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Label Love Baby Cards!

Posted on May 19, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Yesterday was jam-packed from beginning to end! My morning started off by creating these baby cards for a baby shower I was unable to attend but sent my gift anyway:

I used some of my pre-order items: Label Love stamp set, Artisan Label punch, Modern Mosaic Textured Impressions Folder, and new In-Color Strawberry Slush for the card on the right and Marina Mist on the left.

All products used ©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

I used a phrase from Cuddles & Kisses and tiny hearts from the soon-to-be-retired Rain or Shine.

After I safely delivered the gift to my SIL Lori to take to the shower for me, I finished the prep for my "Yes, Mam!" Downline meeting, which was from 7-9 p.m. last night.

There have been several new additions to my downline in all levels lately, mostly due to the great recuiting specials Stampin' Up! has been offering. (psst, there's one going on right now . . . Give me a shout out if you want to know more about how you can join my group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators, the "Yes, Mam! Stampers") Here's my recruit, Sherry Peyton, working on her M&T with two of her downline girls, also named Sherry!

l to r: Shary Logan, Sherry Peyton, Sherry Chrisman!

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