Stampin’ Up! Lilypad Lake!

Stampin’ Up! Lilypad Lake!

Posted on May 4, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card is created with a new Annual Catalog bundle, Lilypad Lake!

I used Mint Macaron, Crumb Cake, Night of Navy, Whisper White , and Sparkle Glimmer Paper:

I stamped the heron with Night of Navy and cut with a Lakeside Framelit, bundled with Lilypad Lake to save 10%! I added Clear Wink of Stella to his wing.

I lightly brayered the sparkly paper with Night of Navy for a night sky effect. I stamped the circle with Night of Navy, then used a sponge dauber to add Night of Navy ink to the center for a nighttime moon look.

The Lakeside Framelits have two dies for cutting greetings! I sponged extra Mint Macaron on the Mint Macaron grass. The Mint Macaron wavy lines are cut with a Lakeside Framelit. To help the narrowly placed line to cut completly, I placed the die cutting-edge-up on the Big Shot Platform with a cardstock shim underneath. Both of my cutting pads were extra flat before cranking through the Big Shot.

The Lilypad Lake bundle with be orderable on June 1st, but there's plenty of good things to order now from my online store: http://bit.ly/shopwithCarolPayneStamps using May Host Code: QMF3XVUA

Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do and New In Colors!

Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do and New In Colors!

Posted on May 3, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have the rest of the cards I created with more new In Colors and the Love What You Do set from the "Share What You Love" May Promotion!

First, I heat embossed Lovely Lipstick card stock with Love What You Do blooms and sentiment with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.

I used a Sponge Dauber to add Lovely Lipstick ink to the blooms, then blotted off the resisted ink with a tissue.

Whisper White 5/8 Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon is the perfect easy embellishment.

Inside I stamped everything with Lovely Lipstick ink!

Next, Pineapple Punch with the same Emboss-Resist technique!

I think it's cool that the ink sponged on the coordinating card stock comes out looking so deep and rich!

IT IS A BEAUTIFUL DAY!

Blueberry Bushel:

These little blooms are included in the Love What You Do set!

Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do Emboss Resist!

Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do Emboss Resist!

Posted on May 2, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have some cards that feature the stamp set from this month's "Share What You Love" promotion, some of the new In Colors, AND the Emboss Resist technique!

The base of this card is my favorite new color, Grapefruit Grove! This color is such a rich, deep peachy color, I'm in love!

After stamping everything with Versamark and heat-embossing with white embossing powder, I used a sponge dauber to add Grapefruit Grove over all of the blooms. I rubbed the embossed images with a tissue to remove the ink that was resisted by the glossy embossing. So simple but so pretty!

This sentiment is also from Love What You Do! I tied the Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle ribbon in an easy knot. This card was quick to make!

All of the images used for this card are from Love What You Do!

Another pretty new In Color is Call Me Clover!

I used the same Emboss Resist technique for this one.

To accent the greeting I simply rubbed a bit of Call Me Clover ink under it!

I made this one to be another thank you card. I seem to always need them!

These New Annual Catalog products can ALL be ordered NOW! You don't have to wait until June 1st, and you will receive at least one freebie when you choose to order one of the Share What You Love Bundles:

Stampin’ Up! A Good Day!

Stampin’ Up! A Good Day!

Posted on April 30, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I used Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper (which is retiring and now sold out) with A Good Day for my cards today. Thanks to Linda Heller for the stamping on muslin inspiration!

I stamped on muslin fabric with Basic Black ink (retiring), coloring the image with Stampin' Write Markers using a light touch of the marker to keep the ink from bleeding.

For my next creation I simply flipped the first Delightfully Detailed print over to the other side!

I layered the focal image on a Stitched Shapes square, which mimics the stitching stamped around the "bring on the sunshine" image. I colored the clouds with Pool Party and the Sun with Daffodil Delight markers.

Tips for using the Mini Embroidery Hoops:

1. After stamping and coloring the image, cut out with a Layering Circle Framelit and Big Shot. The framelit won't completely cut through the whole circle, but it will cut enough you can easily finish the job with Paper Snips.

2. Punch about 5 circles from Whisper White or Very Vanilla Thick card stock to adhere behind the muslin image. Use the 1" Circle Punch for the smaller hoop and 1 1/4" for the larger hoop. Adhere the circles together into a stack using Liquid Glue.

3. Adhere the Mini Embroider Hoop around popped-up image with Liquid Glue.

4. Adhere the whole piece to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Be sure to come back tomorrow for more A Good Day samples!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Hold on to Hope!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Hold on to Hope!

Posted on April 29, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Just a quick post before church this morning. I want to share with you three awesome swaps I've received using the Hold on to Hope set!

This card created by Kathy Johnson was the inspiration for the Touches of Texture Mini-Easel card I shared with you earlier this week HERE.

Kathy kept her colors simple: Berry Burst & Whisper White! Kathy also used a bunch of the dies in the coordinating Cross of Hope Framelits.

Susan B. Levasseur combined Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper (retiring and now SOLD OUT) with Crosses of Hope to create a WOW card:

I love this verse from Isaiah 46. God always keeps his promises!

Finally, my sister Stampers Dozen Blog hopper, Judy Garza, used Night of Navy, Old Olive, and Whisper White for her card. She cut the cross from Silver Foil, embossed the Old Olive background with the Layered Leaves Dynamic folder, and added a Clear Faceted Gem to the center for some sparkle.
