Stampin’ Up! Pattern Play Shaker Card #2!

Stampin’ Up! Pattern Play Shaker Card #2!

Hey there! I made another version of Magenta Madness Pattern Play card I shared with you HERE. Today's card has the same layout as those but I used a different print from the Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper pack. I cut the frame around the shaker with a Stitched Rectangle Die.

Stampin_up_pattern_play_carolpaynestamps1

This one would be a good one for a masculine birthday. I used more of the Sequins For Everything, which are still available from the Holiday Catalog see the supply list below) to put inside the Clear Medium Envelope I used to create the "shaker".

I stamped the "CUE THE Confetti" greeting with  Versamark then embossed with white powder and my heat tool.

Inside I used another sentiment from Pattern Play, stamped with Night of Navy ink. The sparkles are stamped with Granny Apple Green. I added a 1/2" narrow strip of the same Artistry Blooms paper to coordinate the inside with the front.

Stampin’ Up! So Much Love Slim-Line!

Stampin’ Up! So Much Love Slim-Line!

Hey there! Today I have another slim-line card I created for a friend's birthday this past week. She is a papercrafter and is really into slim-line cards right now, so I couldn't resist making one especially for her!

Stampin_up_so_much_love_carolpaynestamps2

I combined the floral image from So Much Love,

Stampin_up_so_much_love_carolpaynestamps3

with a greeting from So Sentimental cut with a Stitched So Sweetly die:

Stampin_up_so_much_love_carolpaynestamps5

I tied a double bow with Pool Party 3/8" Sheer Ribbon to pull it all together. I tied a bow then tied the ends of the ribbon wrapped and tied around the card around the bow to adhere. I added a glue dot under the knot to secure. I added a single Shaded Spruce Holiday Rhinestone to coordinate with the Pretty Peacock ink.

Stampin_up_so_much_love_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I used another So Sentimental phrase, flanked by more blooms.

Stampin_up_so_much_love_carolpaynestamps6

Slim-line card dimensions:

Pool Party base: 8" x 9", scored lengthwise at 4"

Pretty Peacock layer: 8 1/2" x 3 1/2" – need two

Pool Party focal image layer: 8 3/8" x 3 3/8"

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Strawberry Sneak Peek!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Strawberry Sneak Peek!

Hey there and Happy New Year! I didn't stay up to ring in the new year because we are finally having our family Christmas today and I've been pacing myself all week getting ready. This COVID crap is just that, it makes you weak and tired, even if you don't have a bad case, which we are thankful it was mild. I'm finally getting an appetite and just finally generally feeling better. Now to just get in some mild exercise so I can get my strength back!

Today I have a fun card to share that I created with the Sweet Strawberry Bundle from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and the Berry Blessings Bundle you can choose for free when you spend $100 all at once beginning on January 5th through February 28th!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_carolpaynestamps1

I created this card for a swap I signed up for but was unable to mail because I couldn't get out to the P.O. due to our quarantine. I also really didn't like to think that I might be mailing the virus along with my cards!

I love the coordination Stampin' Up! has provided with the Strawberry Builder Punch punching both the images in the Sweet Strawberry stamp set and the berries in the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper that is part of the $100 earn bundle in the 2021 Sale-a-bration brochure!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped the berry top with Garden Green ink on Garden Green card stock, then punched with the Strawberry Builder punch to add to the berry.

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_carolpaynestamps4

I used one of my favorite punches, the Tailored Tag, to punch the greeting from Sweet Strawberry, as well as the Flirty Flamingo mat tag behind it. I added a single Cherry Cobbler Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewel for some bling. You can find them in the Annual Catalog!

Stampin_up_sweet_strawberry_carolpaynestamps2

The inside sentiment is from the Berry Blessings stamp set, which is paired with the Berry Delightful Designer Series paper in the Sale-a-bration Catalog. All you have to do to get this bundle is spend $100 before tax & shipping!

Stampin’ Up! Fine Art Floral with Gilded Leafing!

Stampin’ Up! Fine Art Floral with Gilded Leafing!

Hey there! Today I have my last sneak peek with the Fine Art Floral Suite. This card has a decidedly Asian feel to it and I used new Gilded Leafing from the suite to create the background.

Stampin_up_art_gallery_gilded_leafing_carolpaynestamps1

This card turned out to be gorgeous and I love it. However, the Gilded Leafing is a challenge to use so unless you are up for a mess I wouldn't recommend it to the faint of heart.

Let me explain. I started off by stamping the bloom repeatedly on a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Basic Black with Versamark,  sprinkled the with the Heat & Stick Powder from the suite. You need to be very careful when heating Heat & Stick; it's very easy to overheat and then it won't be sticky. I used my heat tool from the underneath side of the card stock to keep from overheating. Then I laid the sticky layer in a tray and sprinkled the Gilded Leafing over the entire piece. I smashed the leafing into the sticky with my fingers and then used a dry brush to flick away the excess leafing. This took awhile and lots of tiny pieces flew everywhere; it was impossible to keep it all in the tray.

Unless you are fond of cleaning up tiny bits of leafing from your work surface, hands, and clothes, I'd leave this off your wish list. Sorry to give it a poor review, but I wouldn't want you to be misled. I will probably play with it again, but I'm also going to re-create this card with gold heat embossing for a much cleaner result. After stamping the bloom with Poppy Parade ink I quickly sprinkled it with Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and heated with my Heat Tool. I cut it and the Mossy Meadow-stamped stem with Floral Gallery Dies.
