Stampin’ Up! Hello Cupcake Celebrate Banner!

Stampin’ Up! Hello Cupcake Celebrate Banner!

Hey there! Today I want to share with you the banner I created for our family birthday celebrations. Every month that one of our family has a birthday we gather to celebrate!

I was inspired to create today's banner from a card I shared with you last month  HERE.

Stampin_up_buffalo_check_banner_carolpaynestamps1

I used the Buffalo Check background with Real Red ink on Very Vanilla for the pennants, then layered doilies cut with the Doily Builder Thinlits Dies.

Stampin_up_buffalo_check_banner_carolpaynestamps2

After sponging the doilies with Crumb Cake ink, I added the cupcake and pedestal with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Stampin_up_buffalo_check_banner_carolpaynestamps3

I cut three of each Early Espresso letter with the Large Letter Thinlits Dies, then glued each letter together to create a stacked letter before gluing to the banner. To add the pennants to the twine I simply folded the top of the Buffalo Check-stamped layer about 1/2-inch from the top and then stapled it over the twine. This leaves the pennants adjustable to be closer or farther apart as I decide.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day, a Mix!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day, a Mix!

Hey there! Today is Sunday Swap Day, the day I share great inspiration from swaps I receive monthly! Today I have a fun mix of cards, starting with the Sale-a-bration's So Hoppy Together!

Linda Pagel created a fun slider card with So Hoppy Together and Picture Perfect Birthday! So Hoppy Together is a limited-edition set that you can choose as your free item when you place a $50 order in my online store, but only until March 31st!

Stampin_up_so_hoppy_together_carolpaynestamps1

When you pull the ribbon, the tag slides out and reveals another greeting behind the frog! "Happy Birthday" is from the Perennial Birthday set.

Stampin_up_so_hoppy_together_carolpaynestamps2-1

Next, Lisa Marie Smith used the Occasions catalog set, Flowering Desert, dragging her inkpads over the background for an easy "desert-ish" look!

Stampin_up_flowering_desert_carolpaynestamps1

Cindy Ewertz also used Flowering Desert, adding a bit of Gold Metallic Thread for some shine!

Stampin_up_flowering_desert_carolpaynestamps2

All of the sentiments Cindy used are part of the Flowering Desert set!

Finally, Lori Mueller heat-embossed a sentiment from Strong & Beautiful on a Night of Navy circle to really "pop" against the strips of Happiness Blooms Designer Series Paper!

Stampin’ Up! No Cards to Share Today!

Stampin’ Up! No Cards to Share Today!

Hey there! You read the title right,  no card today, but I want to share with you a new blogging schedule starting today. Honestly, I've realized I need to be a more gentle on  myself. For the past several years I've held myself to a rigid  schedule of blogging every day. With the exception of Sunday Swap Days I only share my original work. Original creations will continue, just the schedule of blogging is changing.

Creating every day, then photographing, editing, watermarking, writing a tutorial, and the blog post, can be exhausting. Some nights I've been falling asleep while my fingers are typing! God has been whispering in my heart that I needed to make some changes, but I didn't know what to change. I've been praying for guidance and He answered. I don't ever want to resist the Lord's direction.

I'm still doing workshops for my stamping friends and classes in my home. None of that will change, only my blogging schedule.

For now, I will share my creations on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and continue Sunday Swap Days. I don't know how long I will continue this schedule, but rest assured I am not quitting paper crafting!

I love to stamp and I love my job as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I love my customers (stamping friends, really!) and I love the girls on my team, the Yes Mam! Stampers.

I love you, my blog readers. I hope you will understand why I need to make this change and will check back with me regularly.  I appreciate your willingness to come by my little piece of the blogging world to see what I have to share.

Any time you have a question or need help with something, please don't hesitate to comment here, send me an email, or text.

This blog post has ended up much longer than I intended, but I hope I've shared a little bit of my heart with you.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Strong & Beautiful for Mother’s Day!

Stampin’ Up! Strong & Beautiful for Mother’s Day!

Hey there! Today I am sharing a Mother's Day card. It's always good to have those cards ready in advance  because inspiration doesn't always strike when we need it, does it?

I used by Stamparatus to stamp "Happy Mother's Day" from the Occasions Catalog set, Strong & Beautiful, eight times on the front layer. The Stamparatus comes in handy any time you need to stamp repetitively!

Stampin_up_climbing_roses_carolpaynestamps1

I used a Rose Trellis framelit to cut out two roses, one from Pear Pizzazz  and another from Powder Pink. I cut away the pink leaves, then used a Fine Tip Glue Pen to adhere the bloom over the Pear Pizzazz one. I also used Fine Tip Glue to adhere the entire piece to the card.

Stampin_up_strong_and_beautiful_carolpaynestamps2

I used more Rose Trellis thinlits to cut the leaves for the corners.

Stampin_up_strong_and_beautiful_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I stamped another sentiment from Strong & Beautiful. The blooms in the bottom corner are from the Climbing Roses set. I colored the blooms with my Light Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blend.

I don't have my mom anymore, but hope this will help you have one ready for your's.

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Cheer!

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Cheer!

Hey there! I finally got a chance to play with the Birthday Cheer Bundle yesterday! I love everything about this bundle of stamps and edgelit dies, from the great mixed fonts of the sentiments to the cupcakes! Who doesn't love cupcakes?

I paired the cut-out cupcakes with How Sweet It Is Designer Series Paper, Celebrate You Thinlits, and Basic Black for a really striking card!

Stamin_up_birthday_cheer_carolpaynestamps1

I also used my favorite easel fun fold!

Stampin_up_birthday_cheer_carolpaynestamps4

I added Twinkle Adhesive-backed sequins for instant shine!

Stampin_up_birthday_cheer_carolpaynestamps2

After cutting the cupcakes with a Detailed Birthday Edgelits Die, I layered over the How Sweet It Is Designer Paper.

Stampin_up_birthday_cheer_carolpaynestamps3

I layered four "YOU's" together with liquid glue before adding to the bottom inside of the card with slivers of Stampin' Dimensionals. This creates the easel "stop".

Stampin_up_birthday_cheer_carolpaynestamps5

I used Tuxedo Black and Melon Mambo to stamp the inside and the envelope.
