Stampin’ Up! Retiring Favorites!

Posted on April 30, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've decided to start my "best of retiring" posts early this year. The Retiring List has been published, so rather than waiting till the end of May to share some of my favs, I've decided to share early so you have time to order before things get sold out!

To start off, Mistletoe Season is retiring, as is the Under the Mistletoe Designer Series Paper. Find the full post about this card and the supply list HERE.

Next, the Serene Garden Bundle is retiring too, as is the Tranquil Tide card stock and Tranquil Textures Designer Paper. Find the full post and the supply list HERE.

I also created this card with Serene Garden. Find the full details HERE.

I even created a Christmas card with Serene Garden! Go HERE for more info.

One For All is a super birthday set that I played with and LOVED! More info HERE.

This One For All Diagonal card was my first play with Soft Seafoam. More details HERE.

Finally, a threesome of Diagonal fold cards all created with One For All. Go HERE for more.

The Retiring List is here! Check it out in my online store to order your retiring favorite stamps and accessories!

NOTE: Not all retiring stamps are actually retiring. Wood-mount and clear-mount versions of some sets are just being reconfigured to the cling-mount version. To be sure a set is really retiring, check out this list:

Stampin’ Up! April Paper Pumpkin Sentimental Rose!

Posted on April 29, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I want to share with you the April Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin is a monthly papercrafting subscription box you can receive for only $19.95 per month when you pay monthly. You can save when you purchase a prepaid subscription too!

I used the April kit, Sentimental Rose, to complete the nine note cards included in the kit. The kit included 9 pre-printed card bases, 3 each of 3 diffrent designs, 9 pre-printed card fronts, tags to stamp the greetings, a 10-piece photopolymer stamp set, a Gray Granite Stampin' Spot, a spool of white baker's twine, stampin' dimensionals, glue dots, white corrugated banners and pieces, Calypso Coral & Mint Macaron Enamel dots, a ready-t0-assemble acetate card box, a white corrugated belly band, and a pre-printed rose and leaves. After I finished the cards I still have a few pieces, as well as twine and glue dots, the stamp set and the stampin' spot, to use on future projects.

The stamps in the Sentimental Rose kit are from Stampin' Up!'s Distinktive line of stamps, beautifully etched for exquisite detail!

All nine notecards fit easily into the box, and the belly band is the perfect finishing touch!

Each set of three cards has its' own distinctive look:

I have to admit that while I'm not often fond of pre-printed kits, this one has won me over!

The only things I added to my crafting time with this kit were Calypso Coral and Mint Macaron ink pads.

The 10-piece stamp set not only contains the gorgeous large rose and leaf images, but also seven greetings and the fun little speckled accent stamp I used under the "FOR YOU" greeting.

While this kit is no longer available, you can subscribe to the May Kit, which is extra special!

Here's a short video from Shelli Gardner, Co-Founder of Stampin' Up! about the May Kit!

One of our Make-n-Takes from OnStage earlier this month was a card from the kit:

Stampin’ Up! Bike Ride!

Posted on April 26, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I added the "Last Chance" banner to remind you (and me!) that many stamps, dies, and accessories are on the retiring list, including many of the things I used on today's creation! This card is created with the retiring Bike Ride stamp set and Build a Bike framelits:

I love how the Seaside embossing folder (retiring) gives the look of the bike riding through the wind! I sponged the raised lines, as well as the bike, with Crumb Cake ink for a vintage look.

I added the banner with Blushing Bride using the retiring Pick a Pennant stamps and Playful Pennants dies.

I punched the Blushing Bride blooms with a retiring Bitty Blooms punch.

One of the few things NOT retiring on this card is this sentiment from Strong & Beautiful.

Stampin’ Up! Needle & Thread!

Posted on April 24, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! The Needlepoint Nook Suite on pages 38-39 of the Occasions Catalog is the focus of my card today!

I love the incredible detail this die creates on the card stock! This bundle of stamps and dies, along with the Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper, is retiring June 3rd but may sell out sooner!

The butterfly background paper is from the Needlepoint Nook Designer Paper. I stamped the "needlepoint" flowers with stamped-off Night of Navy ink before cutting with another Needlepoint Elements die. I added pearls to the centers for a finishing touch.

After stamping "friend" with Night of Navy ink on white, I used the stitched-label die from Needlepoint Elements around it, then punched with the Pretty Label Punch. I cut a Sahara Sand Pretty Label in half length-wise to create the mat layer behind it. I wound Linen Thread around the designer paper layer, tying in a simple bow.

The inside sentiment is also from Needle & Thread. I used another Needlepoint Elements die to add the adorable line of stitching below the sentiment. If you love needlpoint, embroidery, or any type of handiwork, this bundle is for you!

Stampin’ Up! Dear Doily Inlaid Embossing!

Posted on April 23, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Happy one month Anniversary to Troy & Grace! It's hard to believe, after all of the months of waiting for their wedding day, they've been married a month!

Today I have another card created with the Butterfly Beauty dies from the Beauty Abounds bundle and sentiments from Hello Doily:

I used the "Inlaid Embossing" Technique with the butterfly cut-out and the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I love this look. See my instruction handout at the end of this post for the full details of this technique!

Inside I used the bloom spray from Beauty Abounds and a sentiment from Dear Doily.
