Carol Payne Stamps: Coffee Cafe and Nature’s Poem!

Posted on September 21, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I'm sharing more Coffee Cafe' cards, but this time I used Nature's Poem Designer Series Paper. These cards were actually my "warm-up" cards I created before I made the "Pumpkin Spice" card for Grace!

I cut three strips from Nature's Poem Designer Paper to adhere vertically on a 4" x 5 1/4" layer. I embossed with the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Textured Impressions Folder and sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink.

I stamped a Coffee Cafe sentiment, "HI" with Cajun Craze ink, punching with a 1/2" Circle Punch.

After stamping the Perennial Birthday sentiment, I punched it out with the Pretty Label Punch and added Soft Suede sponging and Cajun Craze-stamped hearts.

Inside I stamped another Perennial Birthday sentiment and added a strip of Nature's Poem DSP to the bottom.

I created a slightly improved version by sponging the embossed Pinewood Planks with Soft Suede ink and tipping the cup lid up with dimensionals.

If I create another version of this card I would have a greeting coming out of the lid opening as if the cup were speaking!

Side by side Nature's Poem Coffee Cafe'!

Carol Payne Stamps Coffee Cafe for Grace!

Posted on September 20, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! If you follow my blog, you know one of my favorite things to create, beside Christmas stuff, is birthday cards for my family. This year I had the privilege to create a card for a future daughter-in-law. We've waited and prayed for Grace for several years, so I'm super happy to get to make a birthday card for her!

Grace loves everything Pumpkin Spice and coffee, so I had to use Coffee Cafe' and the pumpkin pattern from Toil & Trouble Designer paper:

I used Cajun Craze and Soft Suede to coordinate with the DSP, adding a Corrugated Element behind the "sent with love" sentiment from Itty Bitty Greetings.

The designer paper was adhered to a card stock layer, then embossed with the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Folder. I sponged the edges and over the embossed areas with Soft Suede ink to enhance the texture.

Inside I used sentiments from Perennial Birthday, stamped with Cajun Craze ink. I cut out a couple of the pumpkins to add inside and on the front of the envelope.

I created a second card to display (on the left) that is sponged more heavily and doesn't have pumpkin cut outs.

Today's supply list:

Coffee Café Photopolymer Stamp Set [143677]	Coffee Cups Framelits Dies [143745]	Toil & Trouble 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 Cm) Designer Series Paper [147531]	Pinewood Planks Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder [143708]
Corrugated Elements [144158]	Crumb Cake 3/8" Classic Weave Ribbon [144162]	Cajun Craze 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [119684]	Cajun Craze Classic Stampin' Pad [147085]
Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [100730]	Soft Suede 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [115318]	Soft Suede Classic Stampin' Pad [147115]	Stamping Sponges [141337]
Medium Whisper White Envelopes [107301]

Carol Payne Stamps Pop of Petals for Sunday Swap Day!

Posted on September 2, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I know I've been sharing swaps from the Alaska Cruise for a looong time, but they've been such a help during the past month while I was helping my daughter with the new baby and getting caught up (a bit) during the first few weeks of back-to-school babysitting. Today's Sunday Swap Day will be the last sharing of Alaska Cruise swaps; tomorrow I will begin sharing new ideas from the Holiday Catalog that starts on September 5th!

Today's swaps were all created with the Pop of Petals Bundle!

This first one is with Night of Navy, Crushed Curry, and Garden Impressions 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper!

This lovely creation combines the Pop of Petals Bundle with a Beautiful Layers Thinlet:

One of the Pop of Petals images creates a butterfly!

Pop of petals combined with a Love What You do sentiment:

Mint Macaron, Lovely Lipstick, Follow Your Dreams, and Gallery Grunge:

Finally, Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper and a sentiment from Stitched All Around:

Be sure to come back tomorrow when I start sharing creations and ideas from the Holiday Catalog! I've been stamping and also attended a demonstrator stamping event a few weeks ago, so I have LOTS to share!

Place your order of at least $30 in my online store:

Stamping Rox Lined Alphabet, Very Vintage, and Weddings!

Posted on September 1, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Happy September 1st! Even though summer will technically continue for another 20 days, I always feel like fall has begun when September gets here! My hubby and I are on our annual anniversary trip to Branson, MO this weekend. I love getting to spend time with my sweetheart!

This year the Holiday Catalogs' start is delayed until the 5th, so I'm going to finish up sharing the Alaska Cruise swaps before I start sharing ideas for fall and Christmas.

Today's samples were created with the Very Vintage Host set, Lined Alphabet, Beautiful Bouquet, and Wonderful Moments!

The Very Vintage Host set is so very vintage! I love how this one is stamped all in Blueberry Bushel on Whisper White; it reminds me of delicate china teacups!

Same stamp set, but a completely different look! The sponging has a sunset look, and the Golf Foil and gold heat embossing is stunning! The sentiment is from Rooted in Nature.

The Lined Alphabet Bundle is found in the Annual Catalog and makes it easy to create fun cards like this!

This one includes a "bow" embellishment created with a Picture Perfect Birthday image and Whisper White 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon!

On oldie-but-goodie, Beautiful Bouquet, and the Bouquet Bunch Framelits, combine to create this lovely anniversary card:

Wonderful Moments, new to this year's Annual Catalog, was combined with the Ruffled Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Silver Metallic-Edge Ribbon, and Whisper White 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon for the veil!
