Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Pines for November Online Class!

Posted on November 20, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have the 3rd and final card for the November Online Class! Just place a $35 order in my online store and you will receive it early in December!

I used Peaceful Pines to create this:

I used the Woodland Folder for the background, sponged lightly with white craft ink. If you haven't ordered the Woodland Folder yet, you NEED to order it NOW, because It is RETIRING! (insert sad face) I have added the Holiday Catalog Retiring List to the bottom of this post, so be sure to check it out!

Each of the trees was cut with one of the three different trees in the Perfect Pines Framelits, and embellished with either a framelit from the set (the pine fronds on the far left tree) or heat-embossed with stamps from Peaceful Pines and white embossing powder. I also heat-embossed the single tiny snowflake from this set up among the branches.

Inside I used another stamp from Peaceful Pines and a sentiment from the Six Saying Host set.

Just this morning Stampin' Up! announced their annual Online Extravaganza sale starting next Monday, November 23, and ending on Monday, November 30th!

Stampin’ Up! Hearth & Home No Peeking!

Posted on November 19, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a cute little card for my Mystery Hostess Party on Friday. I used Hearth & Home Framelits with Festive Fireplace, Happy Scenes, and Oh What Fun:

The group requested a "peeking Santa" with the Hearth & Home Framelits, which WILL BE CARRIED OVER to the Spring Occasions catalog! yay!

I opted to not fussy-cut out the Santa. Instead he is punched with the 1" Square Punch and then layered over another piece of Home for Christmas Designer Paper that has a solid background that matches the background behind Santa!

The Curvy Corner Trio Punch, which is ALSO CARRYING OVER TO THE SPRING CATALOG, adds the perfect "pop" to the collage of sentiments from Oh What Fun!

Stampin’ Up! Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop November Edition Christmas with Embellished Ornaments!!

Posted on November 14, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's the 15th, so it's time for the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop again! yay!

If you are already on the hop, you've probably just come from Laura Miligan's blog, I'd Rather Bee Stampin'! It's such a privilege to be a part of this hop every month with such lovely lady stampers! To continue on the hop, be sure to click on the "next" icon and the bottom of this post!

November's theme is Christmas/Holidays, so I used the Christmas Greetings Thinlets, Little Letters Thinlets, and the Festive Flower Builder Punch with Red Foil Paper for my creation:

The secret to keeping all of my CHRISTMAS letters straight? I cut a strip of Whisper White 5 1/2" long by about 3/4" wide to adhere the letters with my Fine Tip Glue Pen, then adhered the entire strip to the card front!

After I punched Red Foil Paper leaves with the Festive Flower Builder Punch, I scored down the center of each petal with the Simply Scored and stylus so I could gently fold the leaves for dimension. An Iced Rhinestone finishes the center.

Inside I used a sentiment and holly from Embellished Ornaments.

My final touch? Adding Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details to the holly berries!

Stampin’ Up! Joyful Season!

Posted on November 7, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have the second card in the November Online Class to share with you! I've been revisiting a few older techniques I learned "way back when" I first started stamping almost 13 years ago. For today's card I used the "frosted window" technique with the Joyful Season set!

I cut a window through both layers on my card front so I could put a piece of wide packing tape on the back side of the white layer, sticky-side-up, and then sprinkle Dazzling Diamonds glitter:

The tiny little holly leaves are from the Snow Place stamp set, cut with the coordinating Snow Friends Framelit. All the rest of the stamps are from Joyful Season.

The only thing I really had to be careful about was not stamping the cardinal on the branch too low so he would show through the sparkly window!

Stampin’ Up! Embellished Ornaments for November Online Class!

Posted on November 6, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I'm sharing the first of the three November Online Class Christmas cards. I hadn't stamped much with Embellished Ornaments yet, or played with the Delicate Ornaments Thinlets, so this bundle was my first choice!

I've had a request to teach the Envelope Punch Board and Stamp-a-ma-jig, so I incorporated both into my project.

I used the Precision Base Plate to cut the intricate Red Foil ornament. My first try the design didn't completely cut all the way through, even though I cranked it through my Big Shot twice. Each Big Shot has its' own "tension", some squeeze dies and folders tighter than others. For my second try I added another layer of scrap card stock under the Red Foil, cranked it twice, and all the little pieces practically fell out!

My card is a 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" square, so I created a square envelope with the Envelope Punch Board:

Hand-made envelopes won't really go through the mail, so I stamped a punched Decorative Label with the "boughs of holly" image from Embellished Ornaments with Mossy Meadow ink, then added some glitz with Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details.
