Stampin’ Up! Technique Tuesday with Delightful Day!

Stampin’ Up! Technique Tuesday with Delightful Day!

Hey there! I'm starting a new series on my blog!

Technique Tuesday

Today's technique is "Rubber Band Stamping"!

Rubber Band Stamping is easy! All you need is a clear block, rubber bands, and ink!

Stampin_up_delightful_day_carolpaynestamps1

First I wrapped three bands around Clear Block C, keeping them flat against the block.

Stampin_up_rubber_band_technique_carolpaynestamps1

I wrapped three more cross-wise.

Stampin_up_rubber_band_technique_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped with Seaside Spray randomly over the white, then turned the block over and stamped with Night of Navy.

Stampin_up_rubber_band_technique_carolpaynestamps3

I finished by wrapping Clear Block A with smaller bands, then stamping with Mint Macaron.

Stampin_up_rubber_band_technique_carolpaynestamps4

I cut the layer into three 1 1/4" pieces, layered onto Crumb Cake, then embossed with the Corrugated folder.

BONUS: this is another cool and easy technique called INLAID EMBOSSSING.

Stampin_up_rubber_band_technique_carolpaynestamps5

I finished the card with a tag punched with the new Delightful Tag Topper Punch!

Stampin’ Up! Above the Clouds and Over the Moon for Sunday Swap Day!

Stampin’ Up! Above the Clouds and Over the Moon for Sunday Swap Day!

Hey there! Today I'm sharing swaps created with two very fun but different new stamp sets, Above the Clouds and Over the Moon! I don't own these sets, but because I swap with other demonstrators, I have actual samples to share with you and the stampers who attend my events!

First, Cindy Ewertz' creation features the Above the Clouds bundle of stamps and punch with Pretty Peacock as the major color.

Stampin_up_above_the_clouds_carolpaynestamps1

Next, Wendy Lee also used the Above the Clouds bundle with a Stitched Shapes die and Subtle 3-D Embossing Folder to create her easel card.

Stampin_up_above_the_clouds_carolpaynestamps2

Switching to Over the Moon, Kathy Johnson paired this happy heifer with the Pinewood Planks 3-D folder and new In Color Rococo Rose for her "udderly fantastic" creation. She used a Well Written die to cut out the "thanks", and Rococo Rose Scalloped Linen Ribbon  to pull it all together.

Stampin_up_over_the_moon_carolpaynestamps1

Finally, Karen Kurz  paired Over the Moon with the Well Said stamp set and Well Written Dies for her swap. Those cute little flowers in the middle are actually Gingham Gala Adhesive Backed Sequins!

Stampin’ Up! Amazing Seaside Spray!

Stampin’ Up! Amazing Seaside Spray!

Hey there! Before I put the Everything Amazing stamp set away, I wanted to make one more card, at least for now. I decided to go with a more traditional route than I did with my previous two samples, so I went with a Monochromatic  color combo of Seaside Spray, Whisper White, and a touch of Night of Navy:

Stampin_up_everything_amazing_carolpaynestamps1-1

After dry-embossing the background layer with the Tufted 3-D folder, I heat-embossed the main focal image with Shimmer White embossing powder. I added "WISHING YOU AN" and "BIRTHDAY" with Night of Navy ink.

Stampin_up_everything_amazing_carolpaynestamps2-1

I love the sparkle in the Shimmer White embossing powder. It's kind of like mixing white e.p. with Dazzling Diamonds!

Stampin_up_everything_amazing_carolpaynestamps3-1

I used the Stitched Nested Label dies to cut the front and inside layers. I stamped a sentiment from Well Said, then flanked it with a floral image from  Everything Amazing.

Stampin’ Up! Seaside Spray Daisy Lane!

Stampin’ Up! Seaside Spray Daisy Lane!

Hey there! Today I have another Daisy Lane/Stitched Lace card to share with you. I modified my June Stampers Dozen Blog Hop card to fit my supplies on hand so I could take it to my Cozy Table Class this afternoon:

Stampin_up_daisy_lane_carolpaynestamps7

I decided to stamp and sponge the daisy layers with Seaside Spray this time!

Stampin_up_daisy_lane_carolpaynestamps9

I heat embossed the greeting from A Little Lace with new Shimmer White embossing powder.

Stampin_up_daisy_lane_carolpaynestamps10

I stamped-off the floral image from A Little Lace with Seaside Spray ink before stamping the sentiment, also from A Little Lace, with Night of Navy.

Stampin_up_daisy_lane_carolpaynestamps11

Up close. I'm starting to think Seaside Spray and Rococo Rose are my two favorites of the new In Colors. What are your favorite(s)?

Stampin’ Up! Everything Amazing!

Stampin’ Up! Everything Amazing!

Hey there! Just about every time I submit an order that has earned Host Rewards  I try to treat myself to least one new stamp set from my wish list. The Everything Amazing stamp set was near the top of my list of non-bundled stamp sets, so it was an easy decision to include on my last order!

I wanted to play some more with the See A Silhouette Designer Paper, so I chose a few coordinating designs to cut 1" x 4" strips. I used the colors from the paper to guide my colors for the rest of the card: Blueberry Bushel, Basic Black, and Poppy Parade.

Stampin_up_everything_amazing_carolpaynestamps1

I heat embossed the main image with new Shimmer Black embossing powder. This image has "blanks" you can fill it with other phrases from the Everything Amazing set. I stamped the "WISHING YOU AN" with Blueberry Bushel and "BIRTHDAY" with Poppy Parade.

Stampin_up_everything_amazing_carolpaynestamps2

After adhering the 1" x 4" See A Silhouette strips to the Basic Black layer, I embossed all with the Swirls & Curls folder.

Stampin_up_everything_amazing_carolpaynestamps6

I used the same main images inside and out, substituting "YOU ARE AN" and "FRIEND", but with the same colors.
