Stampin’ Up! Cookie Cutter Christmas Holiday Catalog Sneak Peek!

Posted on August 13, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I played with the Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle, available September 1st in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog!

Aren't these little bears just the CUTEST?! The Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle is a 17-image photopolymer set and the Cookie Cutter Builder PUNCH! In addition to the bear, there's a Santa, Eskimo, Gingerbread Man, and Reindeer! Absolutely ADORABLE!!!

I started with 5" x 2" Kraft cardstock, punching with the Scallop Tag Topper Punch. I added 1 3/4" x 4" strip of Warmth & Cheer Designer Series Paper, available September 1. I LOVE the cozy, sweater-y prints in this 48-sheet 6"x6" stack!

With Stampin' Up! Firm Foam Classic inkpads you can make your little bears any color! I punched their hats with the Jolly Hat Builder Punch, which is also a Sneak Peek. I added the ball, cut from Whisper White Mini Pompom Trim, with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

The greeting is also from Cookie Cutter Christmas, punched with the Classic Label Punch.

I created this card a few days ago. I've seen a few designs online like it, so I'm not sure who to give credit, but it's adorable too!

This little fellow's hat brim was punched from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper, and has a Mini Jingle Bell, tied with a bit of Candy Cane Lane Baker's Twine and adhered with a glue dot.

I stamped the greeting on the Whisper White layer before embossing with the Happy Heart folder.

The hat and stamped pom are from the Jolly Friends set, which is bundled with the Jolly Hat Builder Punch for 10% savings.

These products will be available to order on September 1 in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

She used Blushing Bride to sponge, and added rhinestone bling.

Finally, Mary Louise Hamill created a Christmas card, adding a "garland" with a Floral Affection folder, a Cucumber Crush Thick Baker's Twine bow, and a narrow strip of Red Glimmer Paper.

She used the Labeler Alphabet to clear emboss and easily hand-cut J O Y!

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Branches!

Posted on July 16, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! By now you probably know about of Stampin' Up! Bonus Days, where you receive a $5 Bonus Days Coupon Code for every $50 you order through July 31st, but I need to show you the super-duper awesome bundle, Thoughtful Branches/Beautiful Branches Thinlets, that can only be ordered from August 2-31st! This set is a MUST HAVE!!!! The 23 stamps, which includes NINE phrases, can be used throughout the year! Here's my first card, a CASE from the flyer from Stampin' Up!

It's one of the cards we're making at my Christmas in July Card Class!

The tree die in the Beautiful Branches Thinlets is gorgeously intricate, and the bird stamps and coordinating dies are adorable!

I white heat-embossed the bare pine trees first, then stamped over with the "For you" greeting in Versamark and copper heat embossed it.

Inside I heat embossed the pine trees again, and used the Host set, Time of Year for the sentiment.

Stampin’ Up! Better Together for Christmas in July!

Posted on June 29, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've scheduled a Christmas in July class! Today's card is one I CASED from the catalog, but changed to fit my style. I used Better Together from page 83. Mostly a sentiment set, there are a few non-sentiment images included. I used a sample from page 82 to get started.

Some of my favorite colors for Christmas cards are Chocolate Chip, Cherry Cobbler, and Emerald Envy!

I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the two sentiments in the tree shape. I used the Classic Label Punch for the trunk, paper-snipping it the size I needed.

I embossed the Chocolate Chip with the Holly Textured Impressions Folder, and used a strip of This Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper on one side. I DISCOVERED!!!! This Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper has 24 sheets instead of the usual 12! The paper is lighter-weight than regular designer paper, but there are four sheets of 6 double-sided designs instead of the usual 2 sheets of 6 double-sided. It's a great value, if you want to make a bunch of cards!

The Crushed Curry star is stamped with a Better Together image.

Inside I used an image from Peaceful Pines for the sentiment.

Here's the supply list to use while shopping in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Better Together Wood-Mount Stamp Set [141733] $49.00	Better Together Clear-Mount Stamp Set [141736] $37.00	Peaceful Pines Photopolymer Stamp Set [139728] $26.00	Chocolate Chip 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [102128] $8.00
