Stampin’ Up! Sitting Here at Hearth & Home!

Posted on October 14, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Later today the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop will start hopping with a Painted Harvest Designer Series Paper theme. While working on my creation for the hop, I made these two cards with the Hearth & Home Thinlets, Cat Punch, and Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper. Even though these weren't my first pick, I LOVE how they turned out!

Starting with a Crumb Cake card base, I added Early Espresso embossed with the Brick Wall Folder, followed by a Crumb Cake window cut with the Hearth & Home Thinlets. Behind the windowpanes I added a rectangle of Painted Autumn Designer Paper.

My favorite part of the card is the kitty punched from the dotted Pumpkin Pie design in the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper pack. After adding a collar around the kitty's neck with a Burlap Trim thread, I finished with a greeting from Sitting Here, punched with the Classic Label punch and adhered with dimensionals.

The inside sentiment is also from Sitting Here.

My second card has a bit more fall-ish with the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper behind the window.

Each kitty you punch will be a little different because of the watercolored look of the design.

The Sitting Here phrase actually is a bit longer, but I punched exactly what I needed with the Classic Label Punch!

I inked the kitty from Sitting Here with Peekaboo Peach, then rock-n-rolled one edge with Pumpkin Pie. I used a Light Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends around the kitty. (Currently Stampin' Blends are only available for demonstrators to pre-order or add to their Demonstrator Starter Kit, but sometime in the next couple of months will be available for you to order too!)

How do you like my runner-up cards? Come back later today or tomorrow to see the first-place winners and take the hop!

Stampin’ Up! Faux Silk!

Posted on October 13, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! After sharing the Gilded Faux Silk technique with you yesterday, I decided to make a true Faux Silk (is there such a thing as true faux?) card to show you what it looks like un-gilded. I used the Count My Blessings stamp set again with another natural coffee filter to create this:

I stamped the flower all over the coffee filter with Early Espresso ink adding Tangerine Tango, Crushed Curry, and Old Olive with sponge daubers.

After coloring and then crumpling into a ball, I adhered to a Very Vanilla piece with Multipurpose Liquid Glue, taking care to not smooth out the filter too much so it retained the bumps and creases. I wrapped the rest of the filter around to the back side of the layer, securing with more glue.

I stamped a Very Vanilla background layer with the same flower and Early Espresso ink, leaving it un-colored for contrast.

I sponged the edges of the stamped vanilla layer with Early Espresso ink, adhering to the card front with SNAIL. After adhering the Faux Silk layer to an Early Espresso mat, I adhered to the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped a banner with the Butterfly Basics birthday greeting, sponging the edges and adding a bit of stamped-off flowers to pull it all together. I sponged a couple of Touch of Nature Elements with Early Espresso before adding behind the banner with glue dots.

I finished the inside with a stamped and sponged Very Vanilla layer using only Early Espresso ink and more Count My Blessings images.

Stampin’ Up! Gilded Silk!

Posted on October 12, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I learned of a new technique the other day, a variation of the Faux Silk technique, Gilded Silk. For this technique I stamped on a natural coffee filter with an image from Count My Blessings, crumpled it into a ball, then adhered to a Very Vanilla layer with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I purposely did not smooth out the crumples to leave the lines and creases that give the Faux Silk it's look. I then adhered the edges the filter to the back side of the layer before adhering to the Early Espresso card base with SNAIL.

The "gilded" part of the technique is achieved by gently pressing a Versamark pad to the raised creases of the filter, sprinkling with Gold embossing powder, and then heating with a Heat Tool. This gives the crinkles some glitz. I then sponged around the edges with Early Espresso ink.

I stamped "thinking of you" from Count My Blessings with Early Espresso on Very Vanilla, cut with a Layering Oval Framelit, then sponged the edges with Early Espresso. I mounted it on an Early Espresso mat cut with an Eastern Medallion Thinlet. I stretched a piece of 1/4" Copper Trim to about 1/2" wide before gluing across the gilded silk layer. I adhered the greeting layers over the trim with dimensionals.

Stampin’ Up! Count My Blessings with Faux Shaving Cream!

Posted on October 11, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I love techniques! I love learning new ones and re-discovering old ones. I've been a demonstrator for almost 15 years, so I've learned a lot of them! Today's card used a sort-of-new-sort-of-old technique, Faux Shaving Cream!

The real Shaving Cream technique involves real shaving cream and ink refills, which while loads of fun, is quite messy and time consuming. Stampin' Up! gave us a new background stamp in the Annual Catalog called "Marbled", that looks so much like the end result of the shaving cream technique I just had to use it with Crushed Curry and Tangerine Tango ink pads to create this:

After inking the Marbled Background all over with Crushed Curry, I then used the edge and corner of the Tangerine Tango pad to swipe color on top of the first for the swirled look. After laying the Very Vanilla card stock on top of the inked image and gently rubbing to transfer the ink, I then stamped the acorn image from Count My Blessings with Early Espresso. I filled in the gaps with tiny little leaves, also from Count My Blessings. Sponging the edges with Early Espresso ink added warmth and depth.

After stamping "thinking of you", also from Count My Blessings, with Early Espresso, I cut it out with a Layering Oval Framelit, sponged the edges with Early Espresso ink, and then adhered it over an Early Espresso mat cut with an Eastern Medallions Thinlet. I sponged a Touches of Nature Element with Early Espresso, then adhered with a glue dot. I added a pearl, colored with a new product that will be available sometime in the next few months, a Stampin' Blend! (new and improved alcohol markers!)

For the inside layer I huffed on the leftover ink on the Marbled image, then laid the layer on it to get a lighter look. I finished the inside with the remaining Count My Blessings phrase, repeating the acorns, leaves, and sponging.

Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday Ivory!

Posted on October 10, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Ivory's first birthday was Saturday! We went to her party, and I created this card for her gift with some of the same elements that I used to make her party invitation:

I heat-embossed the background with flowers from Happy Birthday Gorgeous with white powder on the Wisteria Wonder background, then added an Elegant Eggplant heart cut with a Sweet & Sassy Framelit. I stamped Stylized Birthday with Elegant Eggplant on Very Vanilla, then cut it out with the same Sweet & Sassy Framelit. I finished the hearts with a simple bow tied with Very Vanilla 1/2" Lace Trim, added with a glue dot.

I stamped the inside with a Moon Baby phrase and the baby bunny. I stamped the Very Vanilla envelope multiple times with Stylized Birthday and Elegant Eggplant ink.

Stampin’ Up! Here For You Easel Card!

Posted on October 9, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Did you have a good weekend? Ours was super-busy! I ran over to Fairview Heights to visit with my brother over lunch on Friday, on Saturday I went to Ivory's 1st birthday party, and Sunday we hosted our family September/October birthday gathering! Needless to say, I didn't have any time to blog yesterday, but I'm back again today with a new card I had almost forgotten to share with you!

When I was playing with the Quilted Christmas Suite I made one final card with a non-Christmas theme. I used a print from the Spooky Night Designer Series Paper pack that turned out to be a perfect quilt-square print!

For this "quilt" all I did was cut an Early Espresso "quilt" with the Quilt Builder Framelits, then cut a second quilt with the same die from a piece of Spooky Night DSP!

After putting the DSP pieces back inside the Early Espresso frame and adhering to the Very Vanilla layer, I embossed it all with the Quilt Top Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I added the tiniest heart from the Hearts & Stars Elements with a bit of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I used the Faux Suede technique to distress Peekaboo Peach card stock, separating the layers into two sheets before punching one with the Cat Punch. I sponged the edges with Peekaboo Peach ink for more depth. I added "I'm here for you", punched with the Classic Label punch.

This card is another easel fold. I guess you've figured out by now I get in a groove sometimes with a fold, color palette, or technique.

I used the bloom die from the Quilt Builder Framelits to create the "easel-stop". I added another tiny Hearts & Stars Element to the center. I love these tiny wooden accents!

Inside I used more Here for You phrases, then added the quilt stitching image with stamped-off Pumpkin Pie ink.
