Stampin’ Up! A Flock of Fabulous Flamingos!

Posted on July 5, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! After the long July 4th weekend I'm working hard to get back on a working summer schedule!

I played with Fabulous Flamingo stamps, using Glossy card stock (yes, it's back!) and the new Marbled Background to create a flock of cards!

Everything is stamped on glossy with different color backgrounds. The flamingo is a three-step set of stamps. I stamped the body and legs with Powder Pink, the solid body with stamped-off Flirty Flamingo, and body detail with full-strength Flirty Flamingo.

Tempting Turquoise for this card base and the Marbled background. Lemon Lime Twist-stamped leaves. I used Flirty Flamingo card stock for the layers on all for continuity, and it made it easier to quickly put together 7 cards!

This one has a Soft Sky card base with the Marbled stamped with Soft Sky. Leaves are Pear Pizzazz.

TIP: I experimented with Basic Black Archival and Memento Black ink to see which worked best on Glossy . The Memento ink didn't want to dry at all. It takes awhile for the Basic Black Archival to completely dry, but it started out drier and was less smudge-y. Be careful stamping with any ink on glossy; it's easy to slide your stamp on the slick surface, but oh I LOVE the brilliance of the colors!

While the blue Marbled backgrounds remind me of swirling water, this Pear Pizzazz Marbled makes me think of lush foliage!

The first color I tried was Pool Party. It think it's still my favorite!

After stamping all three layers of the flamingo, the only thing I added was a dot for his eye with my black Journaling Pen.

Every flamingo needs a bit of bling, so I added three little rhinestones in the bottom corner. Perfect!

Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop in New In Colors!

Posted on May 21, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a pretty bunch of cards to share with you today, all created with the Flower Shop and Rose Wonder stamp sets, Whisper White card stock, White Organza Ribbon, and the 2016/18 new In Colors! Yes, it's time to get to know them!

Let's start off with my favorite new color, Flirty Flamingo!

I stamped full-strength and then stamped again without re-inking for this one! An easy technique that doesn't require a lot of extra supplies!

I tied the ribbon into a knot before wrapping around the card front and securing on the back side of the Flirty Flamingo layer with SNAIL.

All of these cards have a bloom from the Flower Shop set punched with the Pansy Punch, then a coordinating Petite Petals-punched bloom in the center. I finished off the centers with a White Perfect Accent.

Isaiah 41:10 is one of my favorite Bible verses!

Dapper Denim is another pretty new In Color!

The phrases in the Rose Wonder set are so versatile, they can be used on card fronts and inside!

Sweet Sugarplum is a bright and "plummy" color!

Peekaboo Peach!

Emerald Envy!

All of the 2016/18 In Colors:
