Stampin’Up! Natures Perfection in Black & White!

Posted on March 14, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Last night I had a fun time stamping with several of my downline, the Yes, Mam! Stampers! I met a couple of new members, and connected with established friends. We stamped, shared, laughed, inspired, and challenged each other. I haven't been able to have a meeting for several months, but this one was so much fun, I already have another one planned for April!

Today's cards are a complete 180 from all the color of the past few days. I decided to create using only black and white:

I combined the March-only SAB set, Nature's Perfection with the Build a Bouquet stamp set and a greeting from Blessed by God. This is simple stamping with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Whisper White, mounted on a Basic Black card base. The only embellishments are a single rhinestone and pieces of Stacked with Love Designer Washi tape.

The inside sentiment from the Build a Bouquet set is in direct contrast to the lack of color, I know, but one thing about stamping with just black & white – when you're done, you're done!

I tried this same layout and color scheme with the Sheltering Tree and Endless Birthday Wishes sets:

No, I don't know WHY I stamped the tree hanging from the sky, but for some crazy reason I like it! I added hello and spots from Endless Birthday Wishes because I really like the font of the word, and the spots could be stars, snow, birds, or whatever you imagine them to be!

Should try this same layout with the same stamps, but with a riot of color? Hmmm.

Here's the combined supply list for these cards. You can find everything you need to try your own "study in black & white" in my online store:

http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/carolpayne/

139100 $13.95	139097 $17.95	137166 $33.95	119246 $4.95	137789 $4.95
121045 $6.95	100730 $8.50	137163 $24.95	137553 $13.95	104332 $6.95

This is probably the smallest supply list ever for two cards!

Don't forget:

When your order is at least $50 before tax & shipping, you get to choose a free item from the Sale-a-bration brochure or March SAB flyer.

Any online order of any amount will qualify to receive a Thank You Project Packet in the mail from me. This includes orders from the Weekly Deals, Clearance Rack, Occasions Catalog, or Annual Catalog.

That's all for now, until tomorrow, which is Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop Day, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Corner Garden!

Posted on March 13, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have the 3rd and final card for the March Online Class to show you, but first, how about a little Lando and Darcy cuteness? Lando and Darcy both went to visit Aunt Jessica at her studio this week, and since they are so close in age (one day shy of a month apart) the mommies decided to wrap them together for a few pics. Here they are!

Miss Darcy slept through the entire shoot, even when Lando was screaming right beside her! You can tell she's relieved, however, when he decided to coo and smile at his mommy!

This card almost made me coo and squeal! I used the Corner Garden Background stamp and the Magic Reinker Technique:

This technique involves stamping the image with Versamark on Shimmery White cardstock, then heat embossing with white embossing powder. After the image is spritzed with water, ink refill color is added to the puddled water on the card stock inside the embossed areas with a wet Aquapainter. After the areas are filled with color, you can either let it sit to air-dry, soak up the extra moisture with a tissue, or speed up the drying time with the Heat Tool. Whichever way you do it, it's a fun technique with gorgeous results! (Squeal!)

To receive the project packets and instructions to make two of this card along with two each of the remaining two cards this month, just place your $35 order in my Online Store by the 15th: http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/carolpayne/

Here's the shopping list for today's card:

134048 $13.95	134045 $17.95	131347 $23.95	131350 $17.95	102283 $7.50
109132 $4.95	129053 $29.95	132708 $5.95	122934 $2.95	119672 $2.95
115662 $2.95	131160 $2.95	131298 $6.95	122925 $6.95	121045 $6.95

Stampin’ Up! Hey Valentine for a Birthday!

Posted on March 12, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! This card was in my latest newsletter, but if you don't subscribe you didn't get to see it. A hostess liked a valentine card in my display, but I changed it for a birthday. I played around with the fishy stamp, Birthday Bash Specialty Designer Paper, and Irresistibly Yours Specialty paper to come up with this:

A Bermuda Bay card base, a strip of Birthday Bash Specialty, and a strip of Irresistibly Yours that I rolled on Crushed Curry ink with my brayer started my card. I added a "Polaroid" Basic Black frame cut with the On Film Framelits Dies. After stamping the fish with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, I colored with Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, and Pool Party Stampin' Write Markers, added googly eyes, and a bit of Dazzling Diamonds glitter. A Coastal Cabana button from the Sale-a-bration Best Year Every Accessory Pack, a bit of Bermuda Bay Baker's Twine, and a Calypso Coral arrow cut with a framelit also from the On Film Framelits Dies were the finishing touches.

To change this stamp from valentine to birthday, I selectively inked the stamp, leaving the "valentine" word un-inked. After stamping, I then added "happy birthday" from my faithful stand-by set, Teeny Tiny Wishes.

Inside was made complete with a sentiment from the Perfect Pennants set, and a 1/2" strip of Birthday Bash paper along the side. I always make sure I stamp a coordinating look on my envelope too.

As my final touch I stamped just the tiniest fish on the bottom corner, but I rocked my stamp a bit and stamped an extra "edge". You can't remove those edges, as there is no such thing as an "ink eraser", so I made the best of it by adding a bit of Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the edge using my 2-way glue pen. It looks like more of the water swirls on the front of the card!

This card is one of three Online Class cards for March. Place an order of at least $35 in my Online Store and I will ship the project packets and instructions to make 6 cards, two each of 3 designs. You need to get your order in quick because the deadline for this month's order is midnight, Sunday, March 15th!

Stampin’Up! All Abloom Herringbone!

Posted on March 6, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there. On the stage at Leadership, Shelli Gardner reminded us of a fun technique using Washi Tape called "herringbone". I had almost forgotten about it again until I found a herringbone example by Peggy Gilbert online today. I almost couldn't CASE her creation fast enough I was so in love with it!

Here's my version using the All Abloom Designer Paper Stack:

Believe it or not, I DID NOT CUT ANY OF THESE STRIPS to make this card! I had all of these strips in my scrap stash I keep with each designer paper pack! This card went together so fast, it took longer to decide which stamps to use than anything else! This technique is perfect for all of those little scrap/strips you just hate to throw away!

Mossy Meadow is the green color in this paper, so I used that color for my card base, and then used a bit of Mossy Meadow twine (from the new In Color Accessory Pack that is one of the new offerings as a free Sale-a-bration item this month) to glue-dot a tiny bow on top of the Melon Mambo button from the Brights buttons pack.

Inside I did cut the four strips to edge the 3 3/4" x 5" Whisper White layer because I needed 1/4" wide strips to leave room for the sentiment from the Simply Wonderful Sale-a-bration set.

That's it for today. I'm adding the supply list below to help you when you are shopping in my online store: http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/carolpayne/

139128 $0.00	139125 $0.00	131056 $26.95	131059 $18.95	133676 $6.95
100730 $8.50	115320 $6.95	133645 $5.95	130028 $7.95	103579 $9.95
138637 $9.95	104332 $6.95	104430 $3.95	103683 $4.95	133703 $6.95

When your order totals at least $50 before tax & shipping you can choose a free Sale-a-bration item, AND you will also receive a Thank-you Project Packet from me in the mail!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Basics for Linda!

Posted on March 3, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Sunday was a snowy day, so I decided to just to play with my stamps, something I hardly ever do. I created this birthday card I mailed to my downline Linda Reaney:

The pearls are colored with the Melon Mambo Blendability marker, which currently is unavailable to order due to quality issues. Hoping these will be available again soon!

Both white layers were embossed with the Spring Flowers folder using a technique to selectively omit the center embossing.
