Stampin’ Up! Petite Pennants Builder Candy Corn!

Posted on October 9, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've got something super cute to show you today! My hostess in Golconda, IL today wanted a project using the 1" x 8" Cellophane Bags, and she likes punch art, so we are making these:

Aren't these little candy corn guys cute?!? I stamped the snowman face from Snow Day on one of the corns and I'm in LOVE!!!!

The other corn I stamped with "it's all about the candy" from Halloween Hello.

The candy corns themselves are 3/4" strips of Pumpkin Pie and Daffodil Delight from the Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper package and a 3/4" strip of Very Vanilla polka-dot from the Neutrals Color Collection Designer Series Paper Stack adhered to a scrap of Very Vanilla, then punched with the Petitie Pennants Builder Punch.

The background of the tag is from the Truly Grateful, cut with the largest Chalk Talk Framelit, then matted with a piece of Early Espresso. I cut the corners of the E.E. layer with my Paper Snips to coordinate with the corners of the Chalk Talk tag.

After filling the 1" x 8" Cellophane Bag with M & M's, (I used a clean drinking straw to poke them down into the bag and get them to lay correctly) I closed the bag with the adhesive strip on the bag and then stapled it to the back of the tag. I covered the staple on the front with a bow tied from 1/8" Pumpkin Pie Taffeta Ribbon.

Here's the completed project:

This was so easy and so FUN!

These would make great Halloween treats, wouldn't they? To order your cellophane bags, Petite Pennants Builder Punch, and Chalk Talk Framelits, go to my Online Store! You can order just about anything else used on this project there too, except for the M & M's and the stapler!

That's all for today! Thanks so much for stopping in to see what I've been up to! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Halloween Monster Montage!

Posted on September 26, 2013 by Carol Payne

My son Logan likes to drink those "energy" drinks, especially when he is driving the 3 hours home from college. Last weekend he came in with an empty nifty green "Ubermonster" Energy Brew bottle. When he asked me how did I want him to throw it away since it was glass I told him I wanted it for my blog. He thought I was crazy, but this is what I did:

I call it my "Monster Montage"! It's not my usual style, but I'm diggin' it!

I thought I had found a Circle Thinlet card similar to this one last week when I was blog surfing, but I didn't save it, not even to Pinterest, and now I can't find it anywhere, not even when I Google for it, so I just went ahead and made my own version. Did I just dream I saw this card? Sometimes I DO dream I'm stamping, so maybe so!

I used Basic Black and Old Olive cardstock with the Circle Card Thinlet Die. The eyes were made with the 1 3/4" and 1" Circle Punches. Mr. Frankenstein's hair was cut with the Tasteful Trim Die, and his "bolts" are Basic Black Glimmer Brads. The light in his eyes is with the White Chalk Marker. I like the Chalk Marker almost better than the White Gel Pen when I need a thicker line of white.

The greeting is from Halloween Hello in the Holiday Catalog, punched with the Hexagon Punch and matted on a Basic Black Hexagon-punched layer.

When you open the card you see the rest of his "smile" and when the Circle Card "flips" you see the "it's all about the candy", also from Halloween Hello.

I decorated Logan's "ubermonster" bottle with a tag that I cut with a Chalk Talk Framelit from Brushed Silver cardstock for the bottom layer, then one of the designs from the Witches' Brew Designer Paper on top. "For You" is a stamp from the Chalk Talk set, black heat-embossed on Gumball Green cardstock, punched with the 1 3/8" Circle Punch, then layered on a Basic Black Label Bracket. It is adhered to the tag with a couple of Stampin' Dimensionals.

The tag is tied to the bottle with Pear Pizzazz Chevron Ribbon. I added a Basic Black Glimmer Brad to the ribbon at the base of the tag to cinch it up and for a little extra bling.

That's all for now! Thanks so much for stopping by today to see my "Monster Montage"!

Stampin’ Up! Halloween Owl Candy Pockets!

Posted on September 23, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm back with the Halloween treat holders I promised you yesterday!

I found similar little owl pocket treat holders on several different sites, so not sure exactly who to give original credit to, but here they are!

Aren't they just ADORABLE???? They are super easy to make, as you can see by the whole PILE of them I made in practically no time this evening!

Here are the dimensions: 8 1/2" x 2 3/4", scored at 4 1/4. Punch each end with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch. Fold on the scored line, add strong adhesive (Sticky Strip or Tear & Tape) along the long sides. Add the owl pieces and you are done1

I used Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, & Whisper White cardstock along with Witches' Brew Designer Series Paper. Punches used were the 2 1/2" Circle, 1 1/4" Scallop Circle, 1" Circle, 3/4" Circle, Small Heart, Label Bracket, and Hexagon.

I stamped images from the Holiday Catalog sets: Perfectly You Hostess Set, Tags 4 You, and Halloween Hello in Jet Black StazOn. I used Sticky Strip, SNAIL adhesive, Tombow Glue, and Stampin' Dimensionals.

Here's each little guy up close:

I LOVE these little guys! They are so fun to make and one piece of candy fits snugly in them!

Whether you need cute little pockets for Trick-or-Treaters, Halloween Party favors, or for classroom gifts, these would be just perfect! I'm thinking I need to make some of these for Thanksgiving too, what do you think? If I do, I will be sure to share them with you!

That's all for now! You can purchase all the supplies to make these fun little owly guys from my Online Store! Just click on the "shop now" button on the right side of this blog to get there and start shopping!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Witches’ Brew Halloween Hello!

Posted on September 22, 2013 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Hope you had a good weekend! My church had their 85th Annual Homecoming Service yesterday with special music, a special speaker, and "dinner on the grounds"! The rest of our day was spent relaxing with our family here at our house!

I have another swap card for you today, this one by Pat Ertman. Pat combined the Halloween Hello stamp set with Witches' Brew Designer Paper and the Circle Thinlet Card Die:

I love all the fun halloween-ey patterns in the Witches Brew paper, don't you? The pattern on the left looks a little bit like googly eyes, and the pattern on the right is just perfect vintage halloween to me! Pat stamped her Halloween Hello images in Jet Black StazOn, then colored the candy corn with Stampin' Write Markers and the White Chalk Marker!

When the card is opened and "flipped", it reveals the little witchy from this same set. Pat stamped her on Summer Starfruit with Jet Black StazOn, then punched her with the 1" Circle punch to create a really easy full-moon effect!

That's all for now! I need to hit the hay because Liam is spending the night with me again for the second Sunday night in a row and he will be up bright and early! I usually go to his house in the morning, but there's some crazy railroad crossing construction going on between his house and mine last Monday and tomorrow, so we decided it would be best if he just spent the night with me on Sunday nights until it is over. I love my job! What other job lets me take care of my grandbabies AND stamp too??!

Halloween will soon be here! Will you be ready? Tomorrow I will have some fun candy projects for Halloween to show you!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Halloween Happiness!

Posted on August 27, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! One of my monthly swaps arrived over the weekend and I had a chance to take photos yesterday, so here are a few using the new Holiday Catalog set, Holiday Happiness (Wood-Mount-only #131859 $9.95) :

Jan Rodrian used the birch paper ribbon from the Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit (#133463 $19.95) for the front of her card. Great out-of-the-box use for this kit! She cut the oval opening with one of the Ovals Collection Framelits (#129381 $26.95)

Linda Pagel used Witches Brew Designer Paper (#132185 $10.95) and the Chevron Textured Impressions Folder (#127749 $7.95) as her background for the Tangerine Tango (#123106 $4.75) heat-embossed image!

She used images from Halloween Hello (wood #131718 $18.95, clear #131721 $14.95) for the inside:

Mary Waring used Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets (#120805 $14.95 for twelve 12 x 12 sheets), the 1" Circle Punch (#119868 $12.95), and Orange Stampin' Glitter from the Black & Orange Stampin' Glitter pack (#132206 $7.95) to add sparkle to her card:

That's all for now! Today is another Liam day! yay! I am really enjoying spending time with him, even though it does cut into my stamping time. It is actually forcing me to be more organized so I can accomplish more in the evenings, so it's working out for the best all the way around!

Last week I got to take care of both Liam and Jaxon at Jaxon's house TWO different days! Here's Liam learning to ride on Jaxon's tractor the first day:

The second day I found Jaxon & Liam having a party jumping on Cohen's bed!

Things sure can't get boring when you hang with these guys!

I know I am very blessed! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Halloween Hello!

Posted on August 21, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! I am really excited to show you my creation today! It's a Halloween card using the Halloween Hello set from the Holiday Catalog. You will be able to see this card in person when you come to my Holiday Catalog Open House this Friday and Saturday. I also made this for one of my monthly swaps:

It's hard to see in this picture, but the little witchy is stamped with Versamark, Heat & Stick Powder, and then sprinkled with Basic Black Stampin' Glitter!

The words were stamped and the Witches' Brew Designer Washi Tape was applied to the card front FIRST before runnning through the Big Shot in the Houndstooth folder.

The glitter on the witch image was attached with Heat & Stick powder, which can be a little bit tricky. Hopefully I will have a tutorial for you for this product soon.

Come back tomorrow to see my second monthly swap!

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

Supplies:

Stamps: Halloween Hello #131718 Wood $18.95, #131721 Clear $14.95

Ink: Jet Black StazOn, Pumpkin Pie Classic, Versamark

Big Shot: Houndstooth Textured Impressions Folder

Misc: Witches Brew Designer Washi Tape, Hexagon Punch, Label Bracket Punch, Black & Orange Stampin' Glitter, Heat & Stick Powder, Heat Tool, SNAIL adhesive, Stampin' Dimensionals.
