Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Birthdays are Great!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Birthdays are Great!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I had an open Saturday (something that RARELY happens for me) so I was able to stamp for fun! I went with a group of my stampers to Gigi's Retreat in Dix IL! I highy recommend it. Tonya really spoils you with good food, snacks, tons of paper crafting supplies at your fingertips, and a gorgeous place to craft!

We are off to Effingham to day for Cohen's baptism. He and his cousin, Justus, are being baptised by their Hollis grandpa, so Mark & I are going up for the service.

Today I have a few more swaps to share before some of the products completely retire:

Stampin_up_another_great_year_1
Kathy Morgan used Another Great Year (not retiring!) with Eastern Elegance Designer Paper (retiring) and Label Collection Framelit to create this fun easel card.

Gold Foil Vellum and Baked Brown Sugar ink make this card happy!

Brenda Hukriede used Retro Fresh Designer Paper, Bring on the Cake stamps (retiring) and the Banner Punch:

Brenda had a surprise inside:

Bring_on_the_cake_2

Your own personal cake! So fun!

Lastly, Cindy Ewertz used Epic Day  Paper and Create a Cupcake stamps (sold out in clear but still available in wood) to create  a shaker card:

Stampin_up_perfect_pennants_1

Perfect Pennants, Gold Sequin Trim, and the Fringe Scissors to make easy confetti:

Bring on the Cake (retired and completely sold out, sorry!) for the Happy Birthday:

That's all for now. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Chalk Talk!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! It's Sunday again, which means it's Sunday Swap Day! Today I have some convention swaps using the fun new set, Chalk Talk!

Denise Sullivan combined this set with Crisp Cantaloupe Core'dinations cardstock and Birthday Basics Designer Paper. The Core'dinations paper already has a texture to it which Denise emphasized by sanding it lightly.

Brenda Meyers used Crushed Curry for her card base with lightly sanded Coastal Cabana Core'dinations paper which she had cranked through the Big Shot in the Beautifully Baroque Textured Impressions Folder. The Eastern Elegance Designer Paper strip at the bottom matches perfectly with the embossed design and the Chalk Talk stamps used. Brenda used Coastal Cabana 3/8" Ruffled Stretch Ribbon and Basic Jewel Pearls to finish off her design!

Jessica Lewis created this card with a decidedly Halloween feel, even though it says nothing scary! I think it is her color combo of Basic Black, Smoky Slate, and Tangerine Tango that gives me that impression. She embossed Vellum, stamped En Francais on the Basic Black oval with White Craft ink, and stamped the Chalk Talk flourish on Vellum with Black StazOn ink before cutting it out with the matching Chalk Talk Framelit. The "You Make Me Smile" from A Round Array has been heat embossed with Tangerine Tango and punched with the 7/8" Scallop Circle Punch.

That's all for now. It's dark and rainy-looking here today. I've got to get ready to help in the nursery at church this morning. That is sure to brighten my day!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
