Stampin’ Up! Retiring Holiday Catalog!!

Posted on December 8, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! With the Year End Closeout Sale in full swing, I thought it would be a good idea to share with you some swaps from OnStage using retiring Holiday Catalog products. Even though the Holiday Catalog runs through January 2nd, the retiring items are now while-supplies last!

First, this swap was created with the retiring Bring on the Presents Bundle of stamps and dies to make a cute little treat box!

You can order this bundle in my online store. Click on the pic to go there!

Next, retiring All Is Bright Designer Series Paper and Making Christmas Bright stamps were used to create this treat packet:

Click on the pics to find these retiring gems in my online store:

Finally for today, this little Scalloped Tag Topper Punch treat box features the Santa's Workshop Specialty Designer Series Paper, which is already sold out. However, the Farmhouse Christmas (Happy Christmas Wishes) is NOT sold out and the starry flourish from Star of Light is still found in the Annual Catalog.

I think I have made a similar box in the past, so I'm going to try this one out again!

This color combo of Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Whisper White, and Garden Green is just so festive!

Stampin’ Up! What’s Carol Been Up To?

Posted on December 7, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! What have I been up to? I've been busy busy, but not stamping. I belong to a women's prayer group at church called Ladies Friendship Circle that meets monthly. Earlier this year I volunteered to host the Christmas meeting at my house. Now, I have stampers in for classes every month, and my family is here several times a week, but for a Christmas gathering you kind of need to up your game a little bit, ya know? So every day this week, Monday through Thursday, someone has helped me dress the house for Christmas. Monday it was Maddie Kate & Ava, my two oldest granddaughters. They decorated my tree. Tuesday Alisa hung lights all over my dining room/living room. Wednesday Logan and his best girl, Faith, helped dress the rest of the house with my collection of Christmas decor, and Logan helped Mark put up lights outside. Thursday Mark helped with general cleanup to put the finishing polish to the house. I couldn't have done it all without my sweet family's help! Oh, I think I forgot to mention I babysat Darcy Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, with Darcy's first dentist visit on Monday, Tuesday School on Tuesday, and Dance/Tumbling Classes on Wednesday!

Here's my little nest:

I know it's a humble abode, but this is the place where I raised all 6 of my babies and the place where my grandchildren play on cold or rainy days. We gather here almost every Sunday after church for lunch and then relaxing together!

The only other thing I need to tell you today is that the Year End Close Out has begun!

Next, Cathy Miller used the Peaceful Noel Bundle of stamps and the Sprig Punch to create this beauty!

She used the Sprig Punch to punch Merry Merlot Joyous Noel 6" x 6" Glimmer Paper for the greeting background. She also used a wadded-up piece of Saran Wrap to dab Champagne Shimmer Paint over the Gray Granite background.

I love the sentiments in this set!

Amy Combs used Signs of Santa stamps, Santa's Workshop Specialty Designer Series Paper, Poppy Parade 1/2" Textured Weave Ribbon and a Pearlized Doily for her bright and chipper creation:

She used a Santa's Workshop Enamel Shape (sold out 🙁 ) to add this darling embellishment to the greeting:

Stampin’ Up! Spirited Snowmen CASE and Twist!

Posted on November 29, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have three cards to share with you, two based on a swap I received recently from Tamie Ackerson with the Spirited Snowmen stamp set:

The Real Red/Whisper White card in the center is Tamie's, the two Night of Navy/Whisper White ones on each side are mine. Tamie's is all heat embossed with Silver powder.

My first CASE is Night of Navy layered on a Whisper White Thick card base. The snow couple is heat embossed with white powder, the sentiment from Merry Christmas to All is heat embossed with silver powder, and the snowflakes from Spirited Snowmen are heat embossed with white powder.

After heating I added Clear Wink of Stella to the hats and bodies of the snow couple for extra shimmer!

Inside I stamped the snowflakes with Night of Navy ink as well as the sentiment from the Warm Hearted Host Set.

For my second CASE, I used all of the same stamps and embossing powders but added an extra touch to the snowflakes. Can you guess what it is?

It's more Clear Wink of Stella!

These cards are quick and easy, perfect for mass-production for your Christmas cards!

Here's your shopping list for today:

Spirited Snowmen Clear-Mount Stamp Set [148072]	Embossing Buddy [103083]	Versamark Pad [102283]
Silver Stampin' Emboss Powder [109131]	White Stampin' Emboss Powder [109132]	Heat Tool [129053]

Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Sentiments with Inlaid Embossing!

Posted on November 28, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card was created with Snowflake Sentiments stamps, Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper, and the Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I was inspired to create these cards by Lyssa Zwolanek, a friend from my Founder's Circle Days.

I used the "Inlaid Embossing" Technique to adhere the strips of Festive Farmhouse Designer Paper to the Very Vanilla layer first, then embossing the entire layer with the Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. This technique makes the designer paper look like it has become one with the Very Vanilla paper!

I stamped the Snowflake Sentiments greeting with Cherry Cobbler ink on a 2" x 4" Very Vanilla piece that I punched on one end with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch. After I cut down a piece of 5/8" Striped Burlap Trim to about 1/4" wide, I tied it in a bow through the ribbon slot. The tag is adhered to the card with dimensionals.

I kept my inside stamping all Cherry Cobbler. I love those small flourishes from Snowflake Sentiments!

My second version started with an Old Olive card base:

Both cards were embellished with a sprig punched from a piece of Joyous Noel 6" x 6" Glimmer Paper.

A closer view of the inlaid embossing:

Snowflake Sentiments Clear-Mount Stamp Set [144820]	Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder [143537]	Festive Farmhouse 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 Cm) Designer Series Paper [147820]
