Stampin’ Up! Vintage Leaves Birthday!

Stampin’ Up! Vintage Leaves Birthday!

Hey there! I LOVE the Vintage Leaves set almost as much as Lighthearted Leaves! I CASED (and changed) a swap by Karen Trelfa to create my 3rd card for the September Online Birthday Class:

Stampin_up_vintage_leaves_1 - Copy

Karen's card was shades of Stampin' Up! greens. I used Rich Razzleberry as my main color, also stamping the leaves in Cajun Craze and Tip Top Taupe.

A phrase from Petite Pairs in Rich Razzleberry on a Very Vanilla scrap, cut with one of the Leaflets Framelits, was adhered with a Stampin' Dimensional. I added a knot of into the Woods 3/8" Cotton Ribbon with a glue dot.

A splatter from Gorgeous Grunge, stamped with Tip Top Taupe, pulls the scattering of leaves together.

Inside I repeated the leaves, finishing off with the companion Petite Pairs phrase:

Stampin’ Up! Woodland Sheltering Tree!

Stampin_up_sheltering_tree_1 - Copy

We will be heat embossing the tree from Sheltering Tree with gold powder, then sponging over it with Island Indigo, Cajun Craze, Delightful Dijon, and Chocolate Chip. This is an "emboss-resist" technique.

The candy dots are from the Neutrals Candy Dots pack, and the adorable little wooden acorn is from the Into the Woods Elements, which are debuting on Sept. 1st!

Inside we will partially emboss the Very Vanilla layer with the Woodland folder, then gold-emboss with sentiments from Lovely Amazing You and B.Y.O.P.

Stampin’ Up! Timeless Elegance Birthday Blossoms!

Stampin’ Up! Timeless Elegance Birthday Blossoms!

Hey there! It's Monday! yay! Tomorrow is my first full day babysitting for Liam and Darcy while their Mama teaches school, so I have lots to get ready!

Today I have another one of this month's Birthday Card Buffet to share. I used Timeless Elegance Designer Paper and Birthday Blossoms set:

Stampin_up_timeless_elegance_1 - Copy

I used Pink Pirouette and Mint Macaron with Sponge Daubers to color:

Stampin_up_timeless_elegance_2 - Copy

I added Gold Glimmer Paper, punched with the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch. I cut in half with Paper Snips to attach above and below the Washi Label greeting. Gold 5/8" Satin Ribbon blends the softness of the paper with the sparkle of the glimmer.

A tiny Pink Pirouette flower punched with the Tree Builder Punch and accented with the tiniest pearl are the finishing touch!

Stampin’ Up! Sassy Birthday Salutations!

Stampin’ Up! Sassy Birthday Salutations!

Hey there! I'm working on the projects for my next Birthday Card Buffet, so today I have a birthday card for you!

I started with the Cherry On Top Designer Series Paper stack, using the Balloon Framelits to cut three balloons. I used the colors in the center balloon paper to determine the card stock and ink colors to use.

Stampin_up_sassy_salutations_1 - Copy

The card base is Cucumber Crush with a layer of Soft Sky embossed with the Polka Dot folder.

The cute little bows at the base of each balloon are cut with the bow framelit from the balloon set, and the Sassy Salutations "Happy Birthday" banner is punched with the Banner Triple Punch.

Stampin_up_sassy_salutations_2 - Copy

Inside I used phrases from Remembering Your Birthday and the balloon stamp from Age Awareness.

This was a quick and easy card to put together. You can use the supply list below to help you decide what to order in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Talented Trio for Ava!

Stampin’ Up! Talented Trio for Ava!

Hey there! Last night was Ava's 10th birthday party! I took my camera, but the memory card was at home. sigh.

I may not have pictures, but I can share her card. If you follow my blog, you've seen the one-of-a-kind birthday cards I make for my family. It's my favorite thing to do, even better than Christmas cards!

I attended Ava's dance recital in May. It was a lovely performance. Inspired by her dancing talent, I used the Talented Trio set:

Stampin_up_talented_trio_1 - Copy

Color Me Irresistible Watermelon Wonder paper matched her dance costume perfectly!

Stampin_up_talented_trio_2 - Copy

 Ava's hair is auburn, so using ink squeezed onto the lid of the inkpad, I started with a light layer of Cajun Craze with my Blender Pen then added light strokes of Chocolate Chip.

Her dress is paper-pieced from the Watermelon Wonder paper and the "dance ribbon" is custom-dyed 1/4" Whisper White Cotton Ribbon.

Ribbon dyeing technique: Smoosh ribbon into the Watermelon Wonder inkpad with a Stampin' Sponge. Blot with paper towel, let dry, then rinse under cold water to lighten the ink. Let dry. Use a Bone Folder to curl. Spray with hairspray and let dry.

NEW PRODUCT SNEAK PEEK: I adhered the ribbon with the Fine Tip Glue Pen, available beginning September 1!
