Stampin’ Up! Geared Up Garage Birthday for Logan, Another Sneak Peek!

Posted on November 27, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Yesterday I shared the card I created for Troy with the Classic Garage Suite, and today I'm sharing Logan's card with the same suite:

I chose Basic Black, Tranquil Tide, Whisper White, Silver Foil, to coordinate with the Classic Garage 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper print. I used the Big Shot Embossing Mats to emboss the Silver Foil with the gears thinlit that is originally intended to cut paper. The Embossing Mats let you turn just about any metal thinlit into an embossing medium! After I embossed the Silver Foil, I cut it with a Layering Oval Framelit, then layered it onto a Basic Black smooth oval and finally a Tranquil Tide scalloped one. I topped it with "Happy" cut from the Happy Birthday Thinlits Die, adhering with tiny dots of Liquid Glue.

I couldn't resist adding a key from the Classic Garage Metal Elements.

Inside I stamped the "nuts" across the top after inking them with Tranquil Tide, Basic Black, and Basic Gray Stampin' Write Markers. Stamping a second and a third time before re-applying more ink gave the shading of the colors. I added "Birthday" from the Happy Birthday Thinlet, also with Liquid Glue.

Happy Birthday Thinlit Tip: To use both words of the phrase, you will need to cut out two "Happy Birthday" phrases with the thinlit first. Then you will cut out "Happy" from one and "Birthday" from the other one. The leftover words will be discarded because they are cut in to to achieve complete and smooth letters.

The Geared Up Garage set does have a car image, but I used a Garage Gears Thinlits Die to cut out the car directly from the Classic Garage Designer Series Paper.

I used a piece of the same paper on the middle fold of this z-fold card.

The Classic Garage Suite will be orderable beginning January 3rd, but order the Happy Birthday Thinlet today from the Online Extravaganza and save 10%! Today starts the third and final 2-day sale: Big Shot accessories and ink! Go to my online store for the complete sale list!

Stampin’ Up! Geared Up Garage Birthday for Troy, a Sneak Peek!

Posted on November 26, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Two of my sons have November birthdays, so we celebrated their birthdays during our family Thanksgiving on Saturday.

In addition to making each son's favorite dessert, I also made them each a card to go with their gift. I had just received my Pre-Pre Order from the upcoming 2019 Occasions Catalog, so I used the new Classic Garage Suite to create Troy's card. I used the Lined Alphabet (from the Annual Catalog and on sale TODAY ONLY 10% off! in my online store!) with Classic Garage 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper and Classic Garage Metal Elements:

The Lined Alphabet set is photopolymer, so it's easy to line up the letters to stamp the whole name or word all at the same time! I cut panels of Classic Garage designer paper to create the background for Troy's name that I heat-embossed with white powder on a Basic Black layer.

"All Geared Up to Celebrate" is from the Geared Up Garage stamp set, stamped with black Memento ink and punched with the Classic Label Punch. The Classic Garage Metal Elements are adorable! I used glue dot to attach this tiny metal wrench!

To give you an idea of how adorably cute and tiny these are, here's a dime beside the key!

Inside and on the envelope I used the Birthday Wishes for You set, stamped with Memento black ink and colored with both light and dark Smoky Slate and the Light Mint Macaron Stampin' Blends.

After I stamped the toolbox with Memento black, I used a Dark Real Red Stampin' Blend to color the box, and the Light & Dark Smoky Slate for the box trim and the tools.

I'm planning to use this design for a swap and possibly my "Stampin' in the New Year" Stamp-a-Stack, so I created another card with the "bro" greeting. What other masculine titles could you use?

All of these new products will be available to order on January 3rd, but you can order your Lined Alphabet today from my online store and get 10% OFF!

Stampin’ Up! Nothing Sweeter Winter Birthday!

Posted on November 7, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! After I CASEd the Nothing Sweeter "Shop By Project" card from my online store, it really lit my creative fire! I have three more cards to share with you this week, starting with this one for a winter Birthday!

I used a clean and fresh color combo of Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, and Whisper White. I embossed the white background layer with the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for a festive, almost "frosting" look!

The present stamps is two separate images. I stamped the ink once on scrap paper before stamping on a white piece of card stock, then I stamped the darker outline, the two middle "ribbon" lines, and the squiggle. Adding rhinestones is the perfect finishing touch!

I repeated the same process (stamping-off for the solid image, full strength for the outline) with Melon Mambo for the center present. I masked the center before stamping the stars.

This present was the easiest. I stamped off the solid image, stamped the outlines, then stamped the snowflake center. I finished with a little masking to stamp the edges and a rhinestone in the center.

I chose a greeting from Another Wonderful Year, stamping first in Bermuda Bay and then in Melon Mambo. I cut out "CELEBRATE" with my Paper Snips to adhere to the phrase.

Inside I used a sentiment from Lift Me Up.

I remembered to stamp my envelope too!

Here's the supply list for my project:

Nothing Sweeter Photopolymer Bundle [149955]	Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder [147923]	Another Wonderful Year Clear-Mount Stamp Set [146695]

Stampin’ Up! Broadway Birthday for Harriett!

Posted on October 16, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Over the weekend I attended the 80th birthday party for my Sister-in-law, Harriett, so of course I made her a special card. The Broadway Bound Specialty Designer Series Paper is simply gorgeous, so I used more than one print from the pack to create an easel fold card. I also used the Broadway Lights Framelits to cut Silver Glimmer Paper to frame the
"Hooray"from the Broadway Birthday stamp set.

I love this phrase that sets the stage for the easel-stop sentiment . .

"Wish" is cut with another Broadway Lights Framelit from Lovely Lipstick Designer Series Paper. I added rhinestones for a jazzy "Great White Way" light bulb effect!

The candles and the sentiments are all part of the Broadway Birthday set. So fun to create with!

The easel-fold is such a great presentation card, perfect for the mantle or on a bedside table!

Swirls & Curls Birthday Card for Ivory!

Posted on October 8, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! We celebrated Ivory's 2nd birthday yesterday, and today I want to share her card with you!

The wrapping paper Darcy helped me pick out to wrap Ivory's gifts had cupcakes all over it, so I decided to make a cupcake card to match!

I embossed the Whisper White layer with the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions folder for a swirling icing look. I embossed a piece of Crumb Cake with the Corrugated Dynamic folder, then hand-trimmed it to size with the half-circle I punched with the 2 1/4" Circle Punch. I smeared the Melon Mambo cupcake top with Shimmery White Embossing Paste for icing. Stampin' Up! currently doesn't have any number dies, so I did use a retired set I still keep in my stash for just these occasions!

I tied 16" of Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon into a bow for some girly "fluff"!

Inside I stamped images and sentiments from the Birthday Banners set!

Your shopping supply list for today! Click on any image to find it in my online store:
