Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Grown with Love Day 2!

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Grown with Love Day 2!

Hey there! Lately, in addition to stamping my way through the catalog, I've been re-exploring some of the techniques and folds I learned 15 years ago when I first started stamping. For my second Grown with Love card I used the Free Stamping Pop-Up fold. This fold makes a really nice presentation after the recipient opens the envelope:

Stampin_up_grown_with_love_freestanding_carolpaynestamps1

I stamped the Cajun Craze base with the Burlap Background stamp using Cajun Craze ink. then colored the flowers with Real Red, Always Artichoke, and Crushed Curry markers. I used Dapper Denim to stamp the flower pot and the greeting.

I added a narrow Very Vanilla panel to the back for a signature area. I added a Dapper Denim sentiment from Five for All.

Surprisingly, this card folds flat and fits easily into a Medium Very Vanilla envelope!

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Grown with Love!

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Grown with Love!

Hey there! I'm stamping on page 22 of the Annual Catalog today with the Grown with Love Stamp set!

I had a Crumb Cake card base with a Crushed Curry layer already attached laying on my stamping table, so instead of starting from scratch, I used them to build the rest of my card from there!

Stampin_up_grown_with_love_wagon_carolpaynestamps1

I embossed a Crumb Cake layer with the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Textured Impressions folder  for the background.  I used Stampin' Write Markers in Pumpkin Pie, Real Red, Always Artichoke, Old Olive, and Crushed Curry for the veggies, Fresh Fig for the "ALL THINGS GROW WITH LOVE", and stamped the wagon with Dapper Denim. I cut them out with Garden Grown Framelits (bundled with Grown with Love to save 10%), then adhered to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin_up_grown_with_love_wagon_carolpaynestamps2

I added a Crushed Curry  dot from the Regals Enamel Shapes to the center of a Touches of Nature Element, adding to the card front with a glue dot.

Stampin_up_grown_with_love_wagon_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I inked up a Layering Love sentiment with markers, and stamped "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" from Sunshine Sayings with Basic Black ink.

This card is just the warm up. I have three more Grown with Love cards to share with you over the next few days!

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Eastern Beauty Day 3!

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Eastern Beauty Day 3!

Hey there! Today's card is created with the flower die from the Eastern Medallions Thinlets and the "hi" greeting from the Oh Happy Day Card Kit:
Stampin_up_eastern_beauty_hi_carolpaynestamps1
I started with a Dapper Denim card base, adding a layer of Berry Burst and a Very Vanilla layer embossed with the Polka Dot Basics folder.

After cutting out blooms from Berry Burst and Lemon Lime Twist, I punched both colors with the 1/2" Circle Punch for flower centers. After stamping the "hi" from the Oh Happy Day Card Kit with Berry Burst,  I punched with the 3/4" Circle Punch. All are mounted on the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin_up_eastern_beauty_hi_carolpaynestamps3

For my finishing touch I added a layer of gloss over the flower centers using my Fine Tip Glue Pen. It takes a few minutes for the glue to dry, so I kept the card flat while I stamped the inside layer to keep the glue from dripping. I experimented with adding the glue to the greeting, but the glue made the classic ink run and blurred the word, so I replaced it with a fresh, un-glossed greeting.

Stampin_up_eastern_beauty_hi_carolpaynestamps3

This is a simple "thinking of you", "what's up?", kind of card uses another Oh Happy Day Card Kit greeting.

Stampin’ Up! Stamping My Way Through the Catalog, Eastern Beauty Day 2!

Hey there! Today is the day! The day you can start using the Bonus Days coupons you earned in July! It's also the day you can start ordering Carols of Christmas stamps set, Card Front Builder Thinlets, or the Bundle with both! AND you can use your Bonus Days Coupon(s) on Carols of Christmas if you wish!

Today is also my next share with you of my "stamping my way through the catalog" series. I used the Eastern Beauty set again with the Oh Happy Day Card Kit stamp set for the inside sentiment:

Stampin_up_eastern_beauty_carolpaynestamps1

I started with a Dapper Denim card base, added a Tranquil Tide 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" layer, then stamped on a 4" x 5 1/4" layer with Dapper Denim & Berry Burst. I used an Eastern Medallion Thinlet to cut the center greeting layers. Berry Burst 1/2" Finely Woven Ribbon and a few Rhinestones pull it all together.

Stampin_up_eastern_beauty_carolpaynestamps2

The Oh Happy Day Card Kit stamp set is a one you can use year round. The phrase I used turns this card into a birthday card perfectly!

Stampin_up_carols_of_christmas_carolpaynestamps1

I combined the Carols of Christmas stamps with Be Merry Designer Series Paper, Gold Glimmer Paper, and Very Vanilla 1/2" Lace Trim.

After stamping the ornaments (each side is a different set, can you tell?) with Cherry Cobbler ink I sprinkled with Clear embossing powder and heat set with my Heat Tool for extra shine and dimension.

Stampin_up_carols_of_christmas_carolpaynestamps3

I wrapped about 40 inches of lace around my hand 5 times then tied the piece of ribbon I had wrapped around the card front around the middle of the loops to create the fun, loopy bow!

Stampin_up_carols_of_christmas_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I stamped more Cherry Cobbler clear-embossed ornaments, then used my favorite Butterfly Basics phrase and the Teeny Tiny Wishes Merry Christmas.
