Stampers Dozen Blog Hop May 2019 Saying Goodbye to Retiring Products!

Posted on May 14, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's time for the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop!

Our May theme is "Saying Goodbye to Retiring Products". I used "A Little Wild" stamps with matching Little Loves Framelits today. Both are retiring on June 3rd.

My color palette: Early Espresso and Crumb Cake, perfect for this little bear cub!

The die cuts a perfect tag, complete with keyhole to tie a bit of Burlap ribbon thread!

I added direct-to-inkpad sponging along the edges for the distressed look.

Stampin’ Up! Fable Friends Darling Baby!

Posted on April 1, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today may be April Fool's Day, but the card I'm sharing today is not a joke! The Fable Friends stamp set contains four adorable phrases to pair with the Beatrix Potter-like images, including the "darling baby" phrase, so I made a darling baby card!

I used a simple masking technique with a Post-it Note to stamp the "darling baby" phrase behind the bunny. I have provided an instruction handout a little farther down in this post to show you how. I colored the bunny with Stampin' Blends.

I sponged just about everything with Crumb Cake ink for a soft, vintage look.

I used a phrase from Needle & Thread inside and stamped some dots using an image from Incredible Like You to continue the theme from the designer paper I used on the front.

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Baby Itty Bitty Greetings!

Posted on February 4, 2019 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I needed to make a few baby girl cards for babies coming soon in our church family, so I pulled out my Large Letters Framelits dies and went to work!

I cut out the word "GIRL!" with the Large Letter Framelits, embossed with the Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions folder, then layered it over a piece of All My Love Designer Series Paper.

"SWEET BABY" is from Itty Bitty Greetings.

After the first card I used the cut-out letters to spell it again on another card!

I heat-embossed "SWEET BABY" with white powder on Powder Pink, then punched with the Classic Label Punch.

Silver & Petal Pink Baker's Twine for the bow.

Everything on the inside is stamped wit the Little Elephant set.

I also made another set, this time mounted on Flirty Flamingo card bases.

And a third set on Whisper White Thick. Now I'm set for baby girls!

Stampin’ Up! Lift Me Up Baby Shower Card for Sheila!

Posted on October 31, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I'm sharing a special baby shower card. Sheila's my oldest daughter, Jessica's, bestie since they were babies. Both now 40, Sheila is having her very first baby in December. We are over the moon happy for her and her sweet hubby, David!

Honored to be asked to create an "Adventure Awaits" banner for the event, I'm waiting for pictures as I didn't feel my camera could do it justice. But I can share the card I created that coordinates with the banner:

I used the Up & Away Thinlets Dies to create the hot-air balloon. The map paper background is a retired Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper. I keep almost all of my retired stuff. Although it takes up a lot of storage room, it comes in handy when a custom project like this comes along!

I cut the intricate balloon outline from Basic Black card stock, then used more of the thinlets to cut the panels behind it from Coastal Cabana, Blushing Bride, and Mint Macaron.

I used "Congratualtions" from the Beautiful Bouquet set to stamp in black ink.

Inside I used a sentiment from Hold on To Hope:

I inked the mini-balloon from Lift Me Up with Coastal Cabana, Blushing Bride, and Mint Macaron Stampin' Write Markers. After cutting out with an Up & Away Thinlet, I adhered with a Stampin' Dimensional.

Lest you think I am a perfect stamper who never makes a mistake, here's what I discovered after I adhered the banner to the card front. Can you see what's wrong with this card? Fortunately it was easily fixed!

Card supply list:

Lift Me Up Clear-Mount Stamp Set [142896]	Up & Away Thinlits Dies [142748]	Beautiful Bouquet Photopolymer Stamp Set [143666]
Hold On To Hope Clear-Mount Stamp Set [145780]	Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder [147923]	Coastal Cabana 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [131297]
Blushing Bride 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [131198]	Mint Macaron 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [138337]	Very Vanilla 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [101650]
