Stampin’ Up! Best of Retiring Part 1!

Posted on May 12, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! With just a couple of weeks left (19 days!) before the Retiring List expires, I thought now might be a good time to review some of my favorites of this past Stampin' Up! catalog year. All of the projects I will be posting today and for the next few days use retiring stamps and accessories that are still available in my online store.

PLEASE NOTE: STAMPS are guaranteed available up until May 22nd. After that date they will only be available while the current supply for that set lasts.

ACCESSORIES ARE ONLY AVAILABLE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST NOW, SO ORDER SOON! LIKE TODAY!

I'm starting with cards posted in May 2016. You can still use the links in the supply lists to find the items in my online store.

First, a card created with Love & Affection stamps and Affectionately Yours Specialty Designer Series Paper (which is 30% off on the Retiring List!)

View the entire post for this card HERE.

Next, a card created with also retiring Traveler. View the full post HERE.

Llama llama! I fell in love with this fun guy from Birthday Fiesta! View the full easel/shaker card post HERE.

I created another Birthday Fiesta card, also using retiring Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper.

View my full post HERE.

I used the bleach stamping technique with Picture Perfect to create my husband's Father's Day card.

Get all the info HERE.

Finally for today, I used the Color Blocking technique with the retiring sets Wetland and Kinda Eclectic.

I can hardly believe it's been almost a year since I created this card! View the whole post HERE.

I'll be back tomorrow with more blasts from the past!

Stampin’ Up! Swanky Beautiful You!

Posted on May 11, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Does anyone use the word "swanky" anymore? When I was growing up, it meant "dressed-up, glamorous, sophisticated", which is what I thought when I created this card with the "swanky" lady from Beautiful You! I used retiring Pop of Pink Specialty Designer Series Paper and Pop of Pink Designer Washi Tape to enhance the "swanky" look!

I used Layering Squares Framelits to create the "pull-out window".

I stamped her "swanky"dress on a Pop of Pink Designer print, cut with Paper Snips, then adhered over the "swanky" lady I had stamped on Whisper White.

A bit of Pop of Pink Designer Washi Tape on a Whisper White scrap was stamped with the "swanky" hat with Basic Black ink, cut with Paper Snips, then adhered.

I stamped the greeting on a 3/4" x 3" Whisper White strip, hand cut banner points with Paper Snips. New Berry Burst Glitter Enamel Dots add to the "swanky" look!

I stamped Stylized Birthday with Basic Black on 6" x 5" Whisper White, scored at 2", 4", and 5 5/8. The 5 5/8" scored line is behind the "swanky" lady square, attached to the inside of the card front with Tear & Tape Adhesive.

I finished off the inside with Pop of Pink Designer Washi Tape and the Beautiful You "in style" phrase.

All of today's supplies, except Glitter Enamel Dots, are available from my online store: http://bit.ly/shopwithCarolPayneStamps

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Posted on May 7, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! After church today we are going to the Fowler Reunion! We haven't been for several years, and although we already see some of the people who will be there today quite often, there will be several we do not. This is my husband's father's side of the family. How often do you go to family reunions?

For my Sunday Swap Day share today I'm starting off with a card I've been saving until I was ready to do my "Guys & Gals" class with the Nailed It Bundle.

I don't have a name attached to this card, but I like the pairing of the Hardwood Background with the Nailed It tools cut with the Build It framelits.

Next, Ruth Bingle combined the Weather Together stamp set, Umbrella Weather framelits, and Sending Love Designer Paper for a bright and cheery card. Weather Together and Umbrella Weather framelits will be carrying-over to the next catalog, but they will no longer be bundled. If you want them, you need to order them before May 31st so you can save 10%!

Finally, Joanne Cantrell created her swap with the carrying-over set, Glamper Greetings. Joanne's family loves to camp, so this card was appropriate for her to make! I love those adorable little flamingos stamped in Flirty Flamingo ink!

My parent's & I traveled all the way to Yellowstone National Park one summer in a camper just about this size!

Stampin’ Up! Beautiful You Shadow Box!

Posted on May 5, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I tried the shadow box fancy fold with the Beautiful You dancing girl. It was fun!

This is not a mailbox-friendly card, but is perfect for hand-delivery. I plan to make an envelope with the Envelope Punch Board to fit it. I embossed the card front with the Softly Falling folder, which is carrying over to the new catalog.

The beach chair is a sneak peek from the Seasonal Layers Thinlets, also coming in the new catalog!

I used the watercolor stamping-block technique on Shimmery White to get the subtle So Saffron, Soft Sky, Island Indigo colors behind the Basic Gray-stamped dancer from Beautiful You.

Both "celebrate" and "so Happy for You" are Beautiful You phrases. This is the back flap of the card cover.

This was a fun card to make!

Almost all of the elements of this card are available to order from my online store: http://bit.ly/shopwithCarolPayneStamps

Stampin Up! Festively Embossed Carousel Birthday!

Posted on April 24, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there stamping friends! Sometimes when I come up with an fun idea I can't resist making multiples and in more than one color. Such is the case with today's card.

After adhering the paper to a Very Vanilla layer I ran them through the Big Shot in the Festive Textured Impressions folder.

Lace Doilies added the perfect background for the hand-snipped banners.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Dragonflies, Jars of Love, and Beautiful You!

Posted on April 23, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there stamping friends! Today I have a couple more Dragonfly Dreams swaps to share with you, then a few made with Swirly Bird!

First, Carla Spradling combined Dragonfly Dreams with Christmas Pines and Jar of Love for her creative card!

Next, Rhonda Bassler sponged Bermuda Bay and Old Olive on a Detailed Dragonfly die cut, then created a background with Timeless Textures and the spotty Dragonfly Dreams image.

This lovely combo of Jar of Love, Dragonfly Dreams (sentiment) and Blooms & Bliss Designer Paper (retiring) is a swap I took a picture of from OnStage. The GOOD NEWS is both Dragonfly Dreams and Jar of Love will be in the New Catalog. The BAD NEWS: both will no longer be bundled with their matching framelits. You can only save the 10% of these through May 31st!

Finally a couple of swaps with the Beautiful You set. This is the set we will be using at my next class in just a couple of weeks!

Clean & simple. Whisper White, Basic Gray, and a dash of Bermuda Bay!

Dramatic Real Red with a water colored background flowing from Rich Razzleberry at the bottom, Melon Mambo, and up into Real Red!
