Stampin’ Up! Clean & Simple Ornamental Pine!

Stampin’ Up! Clean & Simple Ornamental Pine!

Hey there! I spent my Wednesday stamping, stamping, stamping! Such a relaxing and fun day! I didn't actually create anything new, I just stamped several sets of Christmas cards left over from recent events.Iit was so much fun!

Today I want to share with you another card we made on Monday night. This card was originally a Founder's Circle swap, but somehow I lost the creator's name. If you know who, please let me know so I can give them credit!

Stampin_up_ornamental_mossy_pine_1 - Copy

Ornamental Pine with Mossy Meadow & Whisper White cardstock and the On Point Textured Impressions Folder.

The MOST IMPORTANT TIP I gave my stampers for this card:  STAMP THE GREETING FIRST, THEN INSERT INTO THE EMBOSSING FOLDER!

Stampin_up_ornamental_mossy_pine_4 - Copy

Also, insert the card front into the folder with the "tree" triangles pointing toward the top of the layer:

Stampin_up_ornamental_mossy_pine_3 - Copy

The images in the Ornamental Pine set work well inside, outside, and on the envelope!

Stampin_up_ornamental_mossy_pine_2 - Copy

That's all for now. Tomorrow is a Liam day, so we will be playing with trains and not stamps, but that's o.k. with me! His daddy is in the R.N. Nursing program and this is his last week before Christmas Break, so I will only have Liam tomorrow and Friday, and then it will be the middle of January before I have him again. I intend to enjoy him the next couple of days while I can!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Peace on Vellum and New Weekly Deals!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Peace on Vellum and New Weekly Deals!

Hey there. It's been a hectic last couple of weeks with all kinds of events, sickness, appointments, babysitting, parties, weddings, you name it, we've probably experienced it lately. New babies are coming soon, the first new grandson is due on New Year's Day!

So my blog has been ignored, and I'm sorry. Today I'm getting back on the blogging bandwagon. How about a little Nature's Peace for starters?

Stampin_up_natures_peace_1

I love this image embossed on vellum, so I used Early Espresso Stampin' Emboss Powder. I placed random glue dots on the back under the embossing to adhere to the Lost Lagoon layer. Not suprisingly, the Chocolate Chip card base coordinated well with the Early Espresso!

Stampin_up_natures_peace_2

Inside I used more stamps from Nature's Peace to complete the sentiments and theme.

How do you like that cool "softness" in the lower left corner of these pics? I wish I could take credit for it, however, after taking these pics I found there was a smear on the lens of my little point-and-shoot. Probably chocolate! lol! Seriously, I found Liam playing with it the other day. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

We made this card last night at my last Stampin' party of the Christmas season at Donna's house. We meet there once a month to stamp and have a Mystery Hostess drawing for the Hostess Benefits. Our attendance has been growing every month, so if you like to stamp or would like to learn, come stamp with us next month on Friday, January 23rd. Contact me for more info.

Stampin’ Up! 2015 Occasions Catalog and A Little Liam!

Stampin’ Up! 2015 Occasions Catalog and A Little Liam!

Hey there! I've not forgot about my blog, really I haven't! I've just had a take a little "break" since right before Thanksgiving. Things have been so much crazier busy than usual! I came down with a cold and a sinus infection right after Thanksgiving, which put me out of commission for a couple of days. This week has been non-stop, with something going on every evening and quite a bit of somethings thrown in during the day. It's all good, but whew!

Wednesday I was able to go with 7 of my downline, the Yes, Mam! Stampers, to Fenton, MO for the Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalog and Sale-a-bration Kick-off. I can't show you much from the Sneak Peeks we got to see, but I can show you the covers of both Catalogs!

Spring 2015 Occasions (you can purchase the kit to make this bouquet starting January 6!)

544960_10152404641496813_3119645763457038649_n

And Sale-a-bration:

10846496_10152404641031813_1570595617708062896_n

If you have purchased from me in the past year you should receive a copy of these in your mailbox in just a few weeks!

Both catalogs go live for customers on January 6th, so you only have a month to wait to start ordering! Let me assure you, you are going to LOVE the products to purchase from the Occasions and are going to want to get ALL of the free items from the Sale-a-bration catalog! I made my first pre-order from the Occasions Catalog this morning and earned  a few,  "wink, wink" Sale-a-bration items. I can't wait to start creating and sharing new ideas with you!

You probably should check out my website right away. Stampin' Up! has posted new items on our Clearance Rack for our Year-End Closeout!

That's all for now. I have a party tomorrow morning AND a craft/vendor fair tomorrow afternoon and evening. Sunday is our rescheduled November birthdays gathering and then Monday I have my last party of 2014. After that I can get serious about my present wrapping and finishing up my shopping!

Before I go, I just have to share with you a little bit of Liam from a few days ago. He loves to stack things. He stacks my clear blocks quite a bit, but the other day he stacked these:

Liam's stack November 2014

Not too shabby, considering the stack started at his shoulders and ended higher than his head! He's my little buddy!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Punch Mug Tags!

Stampin’Up! Punch Mug Tags!

Hey there! This morning I get to help a dear friend set up the reception for her daughter's wedding tomorrow! yay! I will be leaving in just a bit, but before I go I wanted to show you the mugs I've been selling at craft fairs this year:

Stampin_up_cup_tags - Copy

Aren't these just the cutest? I found the mugs at Walmart, filled them with a hot chocolate packet, a candy cane, and a handful of Hershey's kisses, put them in a Stampin' Up! large gusseted bag, then made punched tags to finish them off!

Stampin_up_owl_punch_tag_1 - Copy

After I found the Owl tag idea online, I punched the 2" wide x 4" long tag base of Under The Tree Specialty Paper with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch, then added the Owl and greeting. I used the Owl Builder Punch and the 1 3/4" Scallop Circle Punch to create the owl, then used the Petite Pennants Builder Punch and the medium eye circle punch in the Owl Builder Punch to punch out the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer circles for the Santa hat!

Stampin_up_owl_punch_penguin_1 - Copy

I used the same Scallop Tag Topper Punch and Owl Builder Punch for the penguin. I trimmed off the ears and the feet from the owl body with my Paper Snips, then added Crushed Curry feet and used the heart that is included in the Owl punch to make the Crushed Curry beak!

Frosted Sequins and the Petite Pairs greeting add festive finishing touches to both tags!

That's all for now. You can find all the supplies to create these little guys in my online store here: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

And, don't forget we have an Holiday Extravaganza Sale going on this week, so be sure to click on the icon that looks like this while you are there and then follow the prompts to view the sale. It's a doozy!
