Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day November 5th!

Posted on November 5, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's time again for Sunday Swap Day! yay!

Ruth Ann Lilley combined the Carols of Christmas set with Be Merry Designer Paper for a CAS (and quick) card:

Another creator used a Christmas Quilt sentiment with Be Merry Designer Paper, and a Stitched Shapes Framelit. Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, Whisper White, and a bit of 1/4" Double-Stitched Cherry Cobbler Ribbon all coordinate together.

Next, Karen Kurz used almost all of the Quilted Christmas Suite to create her easel card.

There's a surprise gift-card holder!

The Quilt Builder Framelits include dies to cut out the spool and the needle!

Finally, the creator of this card also used Quilted Christmas Suite elements with Watercolor Christmas stamps for a classic Christmas look. A Real Red card base embossed with the Quilt Top Textured Impression Embossing Folder, combined with a strip of Quilted Christmas 6 x6" Designer Paper, Emerald Envy, Whisper White, and a bit of Emerald Envy 3/8" Grosgrain Striped Ribbon are easy, yet very effective.

1" and 1 1/4" Circle Punches easily create the tree embellishment, topped with a gold Metallic Enamel Shape (star).

Stampin’ Up! Smitten Mittens, Part 3!

Posted on October 30, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm so excited to share with you my favorite Smitten Mittens card so far!

These mittens are so inspiring, they make me think of warm and snuggly sweaters, so I embossed a piece of Very Vanilla with the Cable Knit Dynamic Embossing Folder and sponged it with Crumb Cake ink to create the background for the mittens.

I cut out an intricate mitten from both Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla, then backed each with the contrasting color. I added a couple of threads pulled from 5/8" Burlap Ribbon to "hang" them on the card.

I love the bold but elegant greeting from Merry Misteltoe, stamped with Cherry Cobbler on the Very Vanilla banner. I cut the Very Vanilla strip and then the Cherry Cobbler one a 1/4" longer before punching both with the Banner Triple Punch. I added a Hearts & Stars Element with liquid glue.

The inside greeting is also from Merry Misteltoe.

I created a mitten stencil by cutting a scrap piece of card stock with the die, then sponging with Cherry Cobbler ink. There are so many things you can do with die and framelits, it's crazy awesome!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day October 29!

Posted on October 29, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Sunday, which means it's time for Sunday Swap Day! yay! Today our whole family is traveling down to Kentucky to eat lunch at Patti's 1880's Settlement to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. The kids debated whether to have a party/reception for us or to just go out together to eat and spend the day. We decide to go with the day together as a family and I am excited!

First for Sunday Swap Day, Cindy Ewertz created a simple but striking card with the Holiday Catalog set, Good Tidings. She used Lemon Lime Twist, Garden Green, Real Red, and Basic Black. A touch of Silver 1/8" Ribbon and a strip of Merry Music Specialty Designer Paper are the perfect finishing touches.

Good Tidings images are lovely inside too!

Next, Sharon Tong-Robinson used the Hearts Come Home set for her lever card. She also used the Card Front Builder Framelits and Lots of Label Framelits. Dazzling Diamonds Glitter adds silvery snowy touches to the trees.

I love the look with this fold!

Kathy Johnson also used Hearts Come Home with the Hometown Greetings Edgelits (bundled to save 10%) and the Layering Squares Framelits. Night of Navy, Silver Foil, Whisper White, and touches of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper create the perfect winter scene.

This card is a window card! She added a snowflake cut with the Swirly Snowflakes Thinlets Dies from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper.

Beautiful sentiment from Hearts Come Home and a Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer moon:

Finally, an anonymous creator used Season Like Christmas and Merry Music Specialty Designer Paper for an easel card.

I just love the easel card presentation! The creator used Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black, and Tranquil Tide, adding Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to the trees for some snowy bling.

Layering Ovals Framelits were used to cut out the greeting that also acts as the easel "stop".
