Stampin’ Up! Dainty Delight Sneak Peek!

Posted on January 1, 2023 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I decided after my battle with Influenza A in December and the subsequent stress and chaos of trying to finish getting ready for our family Christmas that I would take off the rest of the month to rest and relax with my family. My kids and their families have a tradition of coming to my house at least part of almost every day between Christmas and New Years to play games and just hang out, and this year was no exception!

I was able to visit with everyone and cuddle with the littlest grand-babies, Atreyu (almost 6 months) and Wesley (one month). I just decided to give myself a stay-cation and I'm glad I did!

But now it's January 2nd and time to get back into a routine. I plan to get up earlier and go to bed a "little" earlier too. It's not always easy because I'm a night owl by nature and get into my "creative groove" at about 9 pm.!

The project I have to share with you today I created back at the beginning of December for a swap I participated in. You will get to see the swaps over the next few Sundays, but today's project/card is created with new products from the January/April 2023 Mini Catalog. This catalog goes live on Thursday, January 5th, so you don't have too long to wait to start ordering. As usual, the beginning date of the Mini Catalog coordinates with the beginning of Sale-a-bration 2023, which lasts through February 28. This will be the only Sale-a-bration period in 2023. The past two years Stampin' Up! has had a second Sale-a-bration in the summer, but this year they are opting to run individual monthly specials during this period instead of another SAB. I will of course be posting the details about those specials as soon as I get the details from Stampin' Up!

My project today is an easel-calendar card created with the Dainty Delight Bundle of stamps and dies (both with the same title, finally!)Thank you Stampin' Up! for making it easier to keep the stamps and their matching dies straight!) found on page 55 of the January/April 2023 Mini and Dainty Flowers 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper found on page 6 of the Sale-a-bration Brochure. The Dainty Flowers Designer Paper can be yours as your free choice when you order at least $50 starting on January 5th!

I get my calendars from www.vippies.com. They come in increments of 25-100. I usually order at least 100, because the more you buy they cheaper they are!

I used "the best is yet of come", found in the Dainty Delight stamp set, to create the easel "stop" so it can stand up by itself. I cut the phrase with a Stylish Shapes die, and mounted it on a layer of Fresh Freesia cut with another Stylish Shapes die. I will put the clickable list of the supplies I used with the links to my online store at the bottom of my post.

I used two patterns of the Dainty Flowers Designer Paper. It has been photographed by Stampin' Up! to give the look of texture, even though the paper itself is not. I cut the flowers and the stems with Dainty Delight Dies, and added Flat Adhesive-backed Pearls, another new product coming on January 5th!

Here are the clickable links to the products that are currently available. The Dainty Delight Bundle, Flat Adhesive-Backed Pearls, and the Dainty Delight Designer Series Paper will be added on January 5th:

Rich Razzleberry 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [115316]	Fresh Freesia 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock [155613]	Mossy Meadow 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [133676]

Stampin’ Up! Christmas Barn Bay Window!

Posted on December 7, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm back again! After a few more crazy weeks, I'm hoping things are settling down to just normal Christmas Crazy. I have the last craft fair of the year out of the way and no more stamping classes scheduled until January, so now I just need to finish my Christmas shopping, wrap, decorate, and cook! Not too much to do at all! lol!

Today I want to share with you a card I created for my November Christmas Card Class with the Christmas Barn Bundle. I used a fun-fold called the Bay Window Fold.

I stamped the barn with Soft Suede ink on Basic White, cut with the coordinating Bar die, then colored with a Light Real Red Stampin' Blends marker. After coloring I then used the Stampin' Blends Color Lifter on the red to lighten the color to give the barn more of a weathered look. I added Clear Wink of Stella to the roof and the ground for some subtle sparkle. I adhered the barn to a rectangle of Snowy White Velvet card stock to continue the snowy look.e

I stamped the wreath and the trees with Bermuda Bay ink on Snow White Velvet, (discounted on the Last Chance Retiring List) then cut with the coordinating Barn Dies. I added them to the scene with mini stampin' dimensionals.

I also added swipes of Clear Wink of Stella to the trees and the wreath for more sparkle.

I colored the sleigh and horse with Stampin' Blends, then cut with the Barn Die that coordinates.

The greeting, stamped with Bermuda Bay ink of Basic White, was cut out with another Barn Die that fits the phrase perfectly!

Here's the Bay Window card full-size. I added coordinating prints from the Storybook Gnomes 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. This paper is also on the Last Chance Retiring List. It is currently not discounted but is while-supplies-last.

I added another strip of Basic White to the back side for a perfect place for signatures. The sentiment is another from the Christmas Barn stamp set.

Note: when you click on the links to my online store for the supplies for this card you will find the discounted amounts for the items from the Last Chance Retiring List that are discounted. Not every item on the Last Chance Retiring List are discounted, but ALL are while-supplies-last.

(Ordering the Christmas Barn stamps and the Barn dies does save you a little bit more instead of ordering it all in the bundle)

Stampin’ Up! Soft Seedlings Birthday for Grace!

Posted on October 25, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Busy weekend again! Every year sometime before Christmas all of the "Payne Girls" (my daughters, teen granddaughters, and daughter-in-laws) go shopping together one Saturday. For a long time it was always after Thanksgiving, but a few years ago we started going before Thanksgiving, which actually works better for me as I can then get a better handle on my present-buying. When you are buying gifts for 25+ peeps, it takes a while to get it organized. I've figured out a good way to keep track, which involves putting Post-It Notes on gifts as I put them in my cart in the store and keeping a small notebook in my purse to keep track.

This year with Faith expecting Wesley the first of December she requested we go in October as she really didn't feel comfortable traveling over an hour from home and doctor so close to her due date, so we were glad to get to all go together on Saturday! I did get a good start on my shopping, so now if I can just keep going and get it all wrapped sooner rather than later! haha!

I realized I hadn't shared the card I made for Grace's birthday in September with you yet, so here it is!

I used the Soft Seedlings stamp set and Hello Harvest Bundle to create this fall-themed card with a birthday message.

For the front greeting I used a sentiment from Hello Harvest, stamped with Cajun Craze ink.

I used an inkpad-dragging technique to ink all of the leaves, starting by inking the leaf first with Pumpkin Pie, then dragging the edge of the Cajun Craze pad along the outside edges of the leaf. After stamping Very Vanilla with one of the leaves, I stamped the Hello Harvest pumpkin over with Cajun Craze ink, then cut with a Rustic Pumpkin die. As I added Clear Wink of Stella all over the pumpkin I found that the Wink of Stella solution slightly picked up the stamped Cajun Craze ink and moved it as I painted with the brush to give the pumpkin the all-over orange blush look! Wink of Stella also intensified the colors of the leaf.

I finished off the inside with the banner sentiment from Hello Harvest.

Stampin’ Up! Elephant Parade for a Baby Girl!

Posted on October 5, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a baby girl card to share that I created with the Elephant Parade stamp set and Gingham Cottage Designer Paper.

I based my card on one I found online, but now I can't remember who provided the inspiration. I did change a few things for my card. I stamped the little sitting elephant on a Basic White layer, then cut with a Scalloped Contours Die. I stamped the greeting, also from Elephant Parade, as well as the butterfly and the little flower sprig, all with Tuxedo Black Memento ink so I could color them with Stampin' Blends. I colored the elephant baby with a Light Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends, then added another layer of the same Light Smoky Slate on the wrinkles and eyebrows. I colored the inside of her ears with a Light Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blend, but the color was too bright to coordinate with the Blushing Bride color of the Gingham Cottage Designer Paper I used on the background, so I used the Stampin' Blends Color Lifter to lighten the color. I used a Light Pool Party Stampin' Blends on her eyes and the butterfly, then accented the butterfly wings with the same Light Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blend. Instead of lightening the color I added touches of Clear Wink of Stella for a bit of sparkle and shine.

I wrapped the White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around the designer paper layer, which I had adhered to a Basic White layer of the same size for stability, tying in a simple knot. I then looped more of the same ribbon around four of my fingers to create three loops and slid the loops off my fingers. I gave the gathered loops a twist before laying them over the first tied ribbon knot and then tied the ends around it all. I trimmed the ends of the ribbon and then added a glue dot under the knot to keep it in place. I then added the stamped scalloped rectangle over the ribbon with dimensionals.

I colored the flower and the leaf with the Flirty Flamingo and Pool Party Stampin' Blends, then added a bit of Clear Wink of Stella to the petals. I added a few Heart Pearls to the front as the finishing touch.

Inside I stamped the "Babies are a Blessing" from Charming Sentiments, as well as another butterfly and flower sprig. I added coordinating Gingham Cottage Designer Paper to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Tuesday October 4 AND Free Shipping Day!

Posted on October 4, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I was so busy last week and over the weekend there was absolutely no time to post! Today is free shipping day on all orders of at least $75 or more from Stampin' Up!, so today should be busy too! I have two of my granddaughters with me today as well. Fiona is here for two days and nights in a row and Cyndal is here today so I can take her to Tuesday School this morning for her mommy so my son Ben can continue to borrow their extra car until he finds one to replace the one that was wrecked when he hit a deer.

Before I share a few swap cards with you, I need to remind you that today is Free Shipping Day on all orders of $75 or more from Stampin' Up!

The first card I want to share with you today was created by Jan Farring with the Christmas Barn Bundle and Texture Chic Specialty Designer Paper. She used the Bay Window Fold too!

I love how detailed the barn image is. It really doesn't need any color added!

She used a sentiment from the Celebrating You stamp set, stamped with Soft Suede and cut out with a Stitched Rectangles Die.

This swap created with the Christmas Scottie Bundle and Tahitian Tide, Basic Black and Basic White. The background was embossed with one of the two Eucalyptus 3D embossing folders. I currently have misplaced this card so I cannot tell you who the creator is, but as soon as I find it I will add the name here!

Finally, I really love this z-fold card created with the Forever Friendship stamp set! Again, I'm not sure where it is located at my home right now so I can't tell you the creator's name.

The touches are lovely, with the Real Red stamped "thank you's" cut out and added over the sheet of paper in the typewriter and the bit of black & white gingham ribbon!

The inside sentiment is also from Forever Friendship.

Here are the supplies used for today's cards. Shop for them (and get free shipping on orders of $75 or more today only) in my online store!

Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest is a Bundle!

Posted on September 28, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Just a quick post this morning, as I am out the door in a few (with Fiona in tow) to spend some time today with my oldest daughter, Jessica, on her birthday! She is the baby girl who made me a momma, and I can't wait to spend some time with her! She is a busy wife, mother of 4, and an awesome photographer who especially loves to photograph newborns and babies. With her busy schedule and mine, it's hard to squeeze in a few hours together, but somehow we manage to do it around her birthday and mine! We are going antiquing for a bit and then lunch at one of her favorite restaurants, O Charley's!

I received this card as a swap a while back, and wanted to share it with you before the Apple Bundle expires on Friday. The Apple Harvest stamp set will still be available in the July/December Mini Catalog, but the Apple Blossom dies will not!

I would love to tell you who made this card, but currently it is misplaced! As soon as it turns up I will add the creator's name to this post!

It's sort of a z-fold with a bit of a joy fold added in!

Stampin’ Up! True Beauty!

Posted on September 22, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a couple of really pretty swaps to share with you created with the True Beauty Bundle!

For this soft & pretty card, Dena Rekow used the True Beauty stamp set with a color combo of So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, and Pool Party on Basic White with a card base of Crumb Cake.

Before she stamped anything, the used an Artistic Mix Decorative Mask and a Blending Brush to lightly add the stenciled design on diagonally on the right side. Sooo pretty and easy! She also used a sentiment from Cottage Rose, stamped with Tuxedo Black ink, and then used a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to flick speckles lightly. She cut both white layers with the Deckled Rectangles Dies for a pretty, torn look without the tearing.

Sue Kempton Miiller also used the True Beauty stamp set, as well as the Organic Beauty dies that make up the True Beauty Bundle. I love the trellis/lattice looking die she used to cut the Basic White layer! She also used a couple of Stitched Rectangle Dies to create the Blackberry Bliss frame. The greeting is from the Charming Sentiment stamp set, cut with a Sentiment Silhouettes die.

The images in the True Beauty set have such a soft, watercolor look. Sue stamped the flower with Polished Pink, the leaves with Old Olive, and cut with Organic Beauty dies. She added a bit of Parakeet Party 1/8" Metallic Ribbon, then frayed the ends.

This card is a "w" fold!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Tuesday August 16!

Posted on August 16, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! LOTS going on this past weekend! I had my Christmas in July in August Class on Friday night and Saturday afternoon, then Sunday we had our August Birthdays celebration. We have 6 August birthdays (mine is one of them), which is the most we have in any month so far, so it was a big day! School starts for most of us today so they didn't stay to late, but my internet was acting up and I couldn't work on my post until this morning. Then my daughter needed me to babysit her kiddos today, so I didn't get a chance to finish this post until late afternoon. I decided to schedule this post for Tuesday morning. As you can see, my life is very "fluid" right now!

I still have cards to share with you from Christmas in July, but I need to share this next set of swaps with you before I do later this week!

First, Judi Anderson combined the Go-To-Greetings stamp set with Awash in Beauty Designer Paper and the Gingham Embossing Folder. The Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Basic White and a strip of Balmy Blue color combo is so soothing and pleasing, coordinating so well with the font of the "Just a Note" greeting.

In this Flirty Flamingo-based card, Judi Anderson again created a pleasing combo with Merry Merlot, Flirty Flamingo, Basic White, and Awash in Beauty Designer Paper. She stamped the "Thinking of You" with Mossy Meadow.

Cathy Seal used classic black & white with Go-To-Greetings and one of the two Fancy Frames Dies. I'd love to receive a packet of these as a gift, wouldn't you?

Beth Robinson created a fun-fold panel card with another one of the Go-To-Greetings, Lovely Linen Designer Paper and the Lovely & Lasting Bundle of stamps and punch.

This fun-fold has three levels of looks:

A connection between the two side-panels is accomplished with a strip of clear Window Sheet.

The final layer:

Joyce Feraco also used Lovely Linen Designer Paper with the Lovely & Lasting Bundle. She featured the Starry Sky 1/8" Metallic Ribbon to coordinate with the Night of Navy in the paper.

Finally, Sharon Bouck used the Pretty Pop-Ups Dies with Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent for her delicate card. She highlighted the pop-up features with Fresh Freesia ink added with a Blending Brush.
