Stampin’ Up! Party Pandas Birthday or Not!

Posted on March 7, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card is for a birthday, and then it's not! lol!

I used Party Pandas Level 1 Sale-a-bration set with Picture Perfect Party 6×6" Designer Paper to create both cards. The multi-colored "sticks" print on the left is the back side of the balloon print on the right!

I embossed the designer paper and Basic Black layer together with the Sparkle Textured Impressions folder. I also used Bermuda Bay 1/8" Shimmer Ribbon from the Shimmer Ribbon Pack Level 1 Sale-a-bration.

Inside I used Stylized Birthday and more Party Panda images.

For the non-birthday card I used all of the same supplies. I simply turned the dsp over to the non-birthday print!

Inside I used a sentiment from Better Together. Easy Peasy to use the same stamps, colors, and layout for two completely different occasions!

Stampin’ Up! Blossoming Basket One More Time!

Posted on March 6, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card features Blossoming Basket, Springtime Foils Specialty Paper, and sponge daubers!

Copper Foil Sheets and copper embossing!

After embossing with Copper, I used a sponge dauber to apply Powder Pink ink.

Another sponge dauber added Flirty Flamingo to the bloom centers. I colored the foliage with a Pear Pizzazz Stampin' Write Marker.

I held the Layering Circle die with washi tape, turned it over and to lay on the Big Shot Platform with the cutting edge of the die facing up.

This method of cutting is a GAME CHANGER!!!! I was ruining a couple of sets of Cutting Pads EVERY SINGLE MONTH! After simply turning the cutting edges up before cranking the cutting pads are NOT WARPING!

I copper embossed a Heartfelt Blooms sentiment, then stamping butterflies and the basket with Powder Pink and Flirty Flamingo.

Stampin’ Up! Eclectic Expressions!

I stamped the Eclectic Expressions greeting on Very Vanilla with Soft Sky. I cut circles with all three sizes of Stitched Shapes Framelits for layers of texture. I added a few random Metallic Sequins with a Fine Tip Glue Pen. I also added a bow tied with Flirty Flamingo 3/8" Grosgrain Ribbon.

Inside I stamped sentiments from another Sale-a-bration Level 1 set, Amazing You.

Stampin’ Up! Blossoming Basket Colored with Markers!

Posted on March 2, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I want to see how many different coloring techniques I can use with the Blossoming Basket Bundle!

After heat embossing the basket with white powder, I colored the backside of vellum card stock with Stampin' Write Markers.

It looks messy and ugly from this side doesn't it? I colored the basket with a Chocolate Chip marker, then used Calypso Coral, Peekaboo Peach, Crushed Curry, and Old Olive to fill in the blooms and leaves.

When you turn the vellum over to the front, the vellum and embossed lines make the messy markering look soft and lovely!

I adhered the vellum to the card front with strategically placed bits of Stampin' Dimensionals.

The vellum is adhered over a layer of Pear Pizzazz dry embossed with the Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Folder for a softly green background.

A hand-snipped greeting banner and embossed and colored butterflies (hand-cut with Paper Snips) finish the front.

The inside is stamped with more Blossoming Basket images.

Stampin’ Up! Dry Watercolor Blossoming Basket!

Posted on March 1, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card was created with the Sale-a-bration Blossoming Basket set and the "dry watercolor" technique!

As I've mentioned before, although I love to stamp and love to color, I've always felt intimidated by watercoloring. I've never felt trained, and certainly not skilled with brushes and water. However, just as the Stampin' Blends alcohol Markers have helped me get over my alcohol marker fears, the "dry watercolor" technique has helped me take another step into the world of watercolor artistry!

After heat embossing the basket with white powder, I then colored the blooms and leaves with the white watercolor pencil. This lays down a layer of white between the Crumb Cake card stock and the colors I want to add.

I used Calypso Coral, Night of Navy, Rich Razzleberry, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, and Early Espresso to color the blooms, basket, and leaves.

I tied Very Vanilla 1/2" Lace Trim in a bow and white heat-embossed just the "you" from "you are loved". I sponged the Crumb Cake edges with Crumb Cake ink for more of a vintage feel.

Inside I stamped the entire Blossoming Basket sentiment with Crumb Cake ink.
