Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day November 25th!

Posted on November 25, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there and welcome to Sunday Swap Day on my blog!

First, a nameless creator designed this homespun card with the Beautiful Baubles Bundle:

Next, Jan Farring also used Beautiful Baubles with Highland Heather, Whisper White, and Silver, for an elegant look!

A pretty Beautiful Baubles inside sentiment:

Kelly Acheson used the Beautiful Blizzard Bundle with the Big Shot Embossing Mats to create a fun background for the snowflakes:

The Beautiful Blizzard Bundle has five fun greetings to use for more than just Christmas cards.

This card would be perfect for a birthday!

Night in Bethlehem was used by another anonymous creator (we made this card at class last week where I think I lost the name on the back) with the Black Ice Technique:

The Black Ice Technique involves dragging the Jet Black StazOn pad lightly over the stamped images, then pressing the Versamark pad all over the piece. Sprinkling with Clear Embossing Powder and heating with the Heat Tool completes the technique.

Wrapping the Christmas Pines greeting layer with Silver Metallic Thread and adding a Silver Metallic-Edged bow is the perfect finishing touch!

Pretty inside all from Night in Bethlehem:

Hey there! Did you shop till you dropped yesterday? I try to not shop on Black Friday, mainly because we have our family Thanksgiving on Saturday, and today's the day! The turkey is cooking, pies and desserts are being made, and are whole family will be here! yay!

The Festive Farmhouse Cotton Twine comes with three colors: Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, and Mossy Meadow.

I tied little bows with the twine and then added them to my tags with a glue dot.

I punched the tag to with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch so I could thread Cherry Cobbler Cotton Twine for a tie.

This tag is perfect for all of those little treats you need to give to co-workers and friends!

LOVE the gingerbread boy!

Who's been naughty or nice on your list? Or maybe you can't decide?!

Each tag has its' own place to sign your name, courtesy of the Tags & Tidings Bundle!

Tags & Tidings Tags!

Posted on November 22, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there and Happy Thanksgiving Day! Take time to reflect on what's really important in life and all of your blessings!

Today I have a tag set created with the Tags & Tidings Bundle, Sweetly Stitched Framelits, and Festive Farmhouse Designer Paper:

I used my Stamparatus to stamp the tags all at once on a sheet of Wood Textures Designer Paper with Versamark ink, then heat embossing with white powder. The Stamparatus lets me stamp more than once to make sure there is plenty of ink transferred and to accurately stamp a second (or third!) time.

I cut all 16 tags with the Christmas Tags Thinlets Die ALL AT THE SAME TIME!

I cut the trees with two Sweetly Stitched Framelits from a 2" x 2 1/4" piece of Old Olive so I could use both the positive and the negative on my tags.

I punched four 2" x 3" pieces of Festive Farmhouse Designer Paper with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch for the tag base, then went to work!

I tied snippets of Cherry Cobbler 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon for accent.

I love the look of the white-embossed images on the woodgrain paper!

Darling!

I love the varied shapes of these tags!

Each tag has it's own "to: from:" on the back, also from the Tags & Tidings Bundle!

Here's your shopping list. If you place your order today you should have your supplies to start making your tags in about a week!

Tags & Tidings Photopolymer Bundle [149986]	Sweetly Stitched Framelits Dies [147918]	Festive Farmhouse 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 Cm) Designer Series Paper [147820]
5/8" (1.6 Cm) Striped Burlap Trim [147889]	Festive Farmhouse Cotton Twine [147888]	Cherry Cobbler 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon [144117]

Stampin’ Up! Tags & Tidings with Farmhouse Christmas!

Posted on November 21, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm continuing to play with the Tags & Tidings bundle and I decided to add in the adorable little truck from the Farmhouse Christmas set!

I stamped the Tags & Tidings image with Whisper White Craft ink on the Crumb Cake layer. While the craft ink dried, I stamped the Farmhouse Christmas truck with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Watercolor Paper, then colored with my Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers. I cut it out with a Festive Farmhouse Framelit, then used the "slope" thinlet, also from the Festive Farmhouse dies, to cut the Sparkle Glimmer Paper to create the "snow".

Coloring inside the super-thin lines of the "for you" image requires a very light touch with the brush tip of the Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend.

Inside I used my favorite sentiment from Farmhouse Christmas!

Your shopping list for today:

Tags & Tidings Photopolymer Bundle [149986]	Farmhouse Christmas Photopolymer Bundle [149941]	Crumb Cake 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [120953]
Watercolor Paper [122959]	Sparkle Glimmer Paper [146957]	Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [100730]
Real Red 3/8" (1 Cm) Mixed Satin Ribbon [147894]	Whisper White Craft Stampin' Pad [101731]	Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad [132708]
