Stampin’ Up! Lots of Love on Vellum!

Stampin’ Up! Lots of Love on Vellum!

Hey there! We had a great day at the zoo yesterday! 18 of our 20 family members, including all 9 grandchildren! We had 9 adults to 9 kids! A good ratio whenever you're trying to keep track of everyone in the heat and in the throngs of people!

Today I have a quick and easy card created with the Lots of Love stamp set again. I stamped the large "sending lots of love" on vellum with Basic Black Archival ink for a different look:

I started with a Pool Party card base, then adhered the vellum to a layer of Pear Pizzazz with a thin coating of Multipurpose Liquid Glue applied with a Stamping Sponge. There were a few gaps in the black wording, so I used my Journaling Pen to fill in. I stamped the leaves from Lots of Love with Pear Pizzazz ink, and dried all of the inks by gently using my Heat Tool. I wrapped Bermuda Bay 3/8" Mini Chevron Ribbon around both layers before adhering to the card base. Three tiny rhinestones were my finishing touch.

I made sure the thin coat of glue extended all the way to the corners. Using the glue all over the back side of the vellum keeps adhesive lines from showing.

Stampin’ Up! Pocketful of Daisies!

Stampin’ Up! Pocketful of Daisies!

Hey there! I wasn't done playing with the Pocketful of Sunshine Bundle after I created yesterday's "COOL" birthday card, so I used the pocket stamp and coordinating framelit to create two color versions of this card:

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps1

The Delightful Daisy Designer Paper has so many delightful designs, but I chose this one with all of the pretty little daisies to background the Night of Navy pocket embossed with white. I punched two white daisies to layer together before popping up on dimensionals. I added a Clear Faceted Gem to the center. I stamped the sunglasses with Daffodil Delight ink on Daffodil Delight card stock, cut it out with the Pocket Framelits die, then added Fine Tip Glue to give a glossy look to the frames.

For my second color version I changed the layer behind the Delightful Daisy layer with a Whisper White one, punched the Daisy from Daffodil Delight card stock, and stamped and cut the sunglasses from Whisper White.

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps4

I again added Fine Tip Glue to the frames of the sunglasses, and added a Gold Faceted Gem to the daisy center.

Stampin’ Up! Thailand Achiever’s Blog Hop June Edition: Annual Catalog Favorites!

14207747_1112855362100831_7710730354996407642_o

Hey there! Welcome to the Thailand Incentive Trip Achiever's Blog Hop, June 2017! June's theme, "Annual Catalog  Favorites",  is incredible! We have ideas to make the most of the products you already have or showing you how to use things on your "wishlist"!

You may be starting the hop here at my blog – Carol Payne Stamps. The full list below will help you follow the hop so you'll see everything! Right now you're at Carol Payne.

For my project this month I pulled out a must-have bundle, Pocketful of Sunshine!

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps1

My card was inspired by a t-shirt my grandson, Oakley, was wearing. I used the Large Letters Framelits to cut the "C" and the "L" from Tranquil Tide card stock, then stamped the sunglasses with Lemon Lime Twist on Whisper White and cut them out with the sunglasses framelit from the Pocket Framelit dies in the bundle.

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps2

After cutting them out and adhering over a piece of Naturally Eclectic Designer Paper I rimmed the edges of the frames with Fine Tip Glue. It dried clear and glossy in a few minutes, but I kept it flat so it wouldn't run at first.

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps4

I partially inked a Birthday Delivery phrase to get the "who's having a", then punched with the Classic Label.

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps3

Then stamped and cut out the "BIRTHDAY" with Paper Snips.

Stampin_up_pocketful_of_sunshine_carolpaynestamps5

Inside I stamped another Birthday Delivery sentiment and stamped the sunglasses with stamped-off Lemon Lime Twist.

Stampin’ Up! Lovely Words!

Stampin’ Up! Lovely Words!

Hey there! During my New Catalog Open House one of my customers, Donna, decided to make her wish list into a card. With just a few extra products added to the original packet  she started with this:

Stampin_up_lovely_words_carolpaynestamps1

and then converted to this:

Stampin_up_lovely_words_carolpaynestamps1

Instead of using the"wishlist"banner, she stamped FRIEND by omitting from the phrase "LIFE IS BETTER with FRIENDS" from  Just Add Text, adding a Glitter Enamel Dot.

Stampin_up_lovely_words_carolpaynestamps2

Inside she stamped another Just Add Text  sentiment with Smoky Slate ink, then colored with a Blender Pen using ink squeezed into the ink pad lid.

Stampin_up_just_add_text_carolpaynestamps1

She added a tiny flower with the Tree Builder Punch.

Stampin_up_just_add_text_carolpaynestamps2

I had the You're Delightful Host set on the table, and she chose to stamp "P.S. THAT IS ALL"  at the bottom of the inside.

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Delivery Birthday Cake!

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Delivery Birthday Cake!

Hey there! Oh my, just one more card with the Birthday Delivery Bundle left to share. Again, this card is a swap I received that I am finishing and adding to the line-up we will be making at my Birthday Delivery Card Class next week. This card front was created by Sandy Carlson. The card inside is my creation:

Stampin_up_birthday_delivery_birthday_cake_carolpaynestamps1

Sandy used Birthday Delivery stamps, Birthday Friends Framelits, Birthday Memories Designer Series Paper, the whole bundle! She also used Layering Squares Framelits, Stitched Squares Framelits, and a sliver of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper. My contribution to this card front was to add Clear Wink of Stella to the candle flames.

Stampin_up_birthday_delivery_birthday_cake_carolpaynestamps2

I tried to make the inside "match" the outside of the card as much as possible with the same colors and a strip of the same Birthday Memories Designer Series Paper print. I pulled out a new set, Special Celebrations, for the sentiments.

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Delivery Pastry Chef!

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Delivery Pastry Chef!

Hey there! Today  I want to share with you another card we will be making at my Birthday Memories card class next week. I chose a swap I received from Lisa Pressley because I love the happy little pastry chef she used from the Birthday Delivery stamp set! She stamped "Happy Birthday" with Real Red ink on the Whisper White layer before she embossed with the Brick Wall Textured Impressions folder. I also love her classic  bakery color combo of Basic Black, Real Red, and Whisper White!

Stampin_up_birthday_delivery_chef_carolpaynestamps1

After stamping the chef with Basic Black Archival ink on Whisper White, she colored him simply with Real Red, Crumb Cake, and Smoky Slate. A Birthday Friends framelit expertly cut him out in a snap! The Basic Black rectangle is softly sponged with Whisper White ink for a blackboard/tile effect.

Stampin_up_birthday_delivery_chef_carolpaynestamps2

Lisa's swap was blank on the inside, so I used a mixture of sentiments from the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set, continuing the color palette of Basic Black, Real Red, and Whisper White.

Stampin_up_birthday_delivery_chef_carolpaynestamps3

The card front is finished off with Basic Black Baker's Twine, of course!
