Stampin’ Up! Beautiful You Hope!

Posted on May 10, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! While I've been playing with Beautiful You and the Sunshine Wishes Thinlets, I created this card with the umbrella girl:

After stamping the girl with Basic Gray ink on Watercolor Paper, I masked her with a cut out Post-it Note and then stamped the "rain" with a Gorgeous Grunge image and Pool Party ink. I stamped the grass with Pear Pizzazz, then spritzed with water.

After letting the inks run and dry I then stamped the girl's dress and her umbrella on some bits of Blooms & Bliss Designer Series Paper, cut them out, then adhered with a bit of Liquid Glue.

I cut "hope" with a Sunshine Wishes Thinlet from both Basic Gray and Soft Sky to get a shadow effect.

Inside I stamped a phrase from Beautiful You and the grass from High Tide.

Both Gorgeous Grunge and Blooms & Bliss Designer Paper are retiring. You can still order them from my online store: http://bit.ly/shopwithCarolPayneStamps

Stampin’ Up! Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop November Edition Happy Holidays!

Posted on November 14, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Welcom to the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop! Our theme this month is Happy Holidays, and while I prefer to say "Merry Christmas!", the collection of holidays from Thanksgiving through New Year's are indeed happy!

I chose the Santa's Sleigh bundle of stamps and thinlets for my project!

I combined images from Lovely As a Tree and Peaceful Pines for the background, heat embossing with White powder.

I cut the sleigh base from Basic Black, then cut the intricate sleigh body from Basic Gray. I painted the body with Clear Wink of Stella before adding the Always Artichoke wreath and Cherry Cobbler bow.

"MERRY CHRISTMAS WISHES" is from Santa's Sleigh. I stamped the Gorgeous Grunge fine-grain splatter stamp with White Craft ink for a snowy look.

Inside I used another phrase from Santa's Sleigh and another tree image from Peaceful Pines.

Stampin’ Up! An Open Heart for a Birthday!

Posted on May 10, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I used An Open Heart, Kinda Eclectic, and Blessed By God sets, all from the Retiring Stamps list for today's card:

I stamped An Open Heart birdie with Archival Basic Black ink on Very Vanilla. I stamped the bird again on a Post-it Note, cutting it out to create a mask to cover the bird while I stamped the leaves over it with stamped-off Mossy Meadow ink. Before I removed the mask I also stamped over the bird and leaves with stamped-off Soft Suede ink and the "sandy" stamp from Gorgeous Grunge.

Don't throw away your used Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush! It's hard to tell in here, but I colored the bird with Soft Suede ink squeezed onto the lid of the pad, picked up and painted on the birdie with the Wink of Stella Brush. The left-over Wink of Stella gives the bird a subtle shimmer!

Inside I used the same masking technique with the bird, but did not color.

Come make two of this card along with 8 more cards, two each of four more designs, for $25 or free with a $40 product order. Contact me to RSVP!

Stampin’ Up! Marquee Messages for the May Online Class!

Posted on May 2, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! As promised, I have the first of three May Online Class cards to share with you today. This month we're using Marquee Messages stamps I received at OnStage Live in Salt Lake City last month. Since you will receive 6 completed cards, with envelopes and instructions, when you order at least $35 in my online store this month, you can wait until June to order your set.

I combined Marquee Messages, Gorgeous Grunge, and the Brick Wall Textured Impressions Embossing Folder:

I used the "tearing" technique, something that I did quite a bit back when I first started stamping 14 years ago. I'd forgotten how much I like the effect! After stamping the images with Archival Basic Black and stamping the Gorgeous Grunge "splotches" with Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, Pool Party, and Tip Top Taupe, I tore around the image. then rubbed Tip Top Taupe inkpad directly on the edges for more "grunge".

After I adhered the grunged layer over the Tip Top Taupe/Brick Wall layer, I added a few black sequins from the Metallics Sequins pack, adhering with my Fine Tip Glue Pen.

Inside I used more Marquee Messages and the same inks and stamps from Gorgeous Grunge. I needed a matching liner for my envelope, so I stamped a piece of copy paper, cutting it with my Envelope Liner Framelits (which are on the Retiring List and won't be available much longer!)

You can't order Marquee Messages, Flirty Flamingo or Peekaboo Peach until June 1st, but you CAN order everything else for this card in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Last Definitely Dahlia for Online Class!

Posted on July 9, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I know it's later than usual getting my post up today. I wanted to share the final card in the July Definitely Dahlia Online Class, but I hadn't created a third one yet that I liked. I am finally truly happy with this one!

I inked the dahlia first with Crushed Curry, then pounced a Stampin' Sponge of Blackberry Bliss ink over it. After stamping on Very Vanilla, I added Blackberry Bliss splatters using Gorgeous Grunge.

The "Celebrate" is from the Expressions Natural Elements glue dotted on the strip of Farmers Market Designer Paper. I punched the Blackberry Bliss flower with an Itty Bitty Accents punch, adding a gold sequin pulled from the Gold Sequin Trim with a glue dot.

I rounded the corners of the Very Vanilla layers with the Envelope Punch Board corner rounder. After lining the envelope with more Farmers Market paper, I breathed on the dahlia to revitalize the remaining ink to stamp on the Very Vanilla Medium Envelope.

Here's the group of all three cards in the July Online Class. All it takes to receive 6 of these cards, two each of the three designs, plus instructions, is an order of at least $35 in my online store by July 15th!

Here's the supply list for today's card. You can order everything you need in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
