Stampin’ Up! Gnome For The Holidays Banner!

Posted on December 3, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Over the long Thanksgiving weekend I helped my daughter create 9 banners for her co-worker gifts. We used the trendy Gnome for the Holidays!

It's hard to see how cute this banner really is. My little point-and-shoot isn't up to this task!

I used Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White for my color scheme, which was the perfect background for the snowflakes, letters, and gnomes! I spelled out "M E R R Y" using a retired set of Stampin' Up! dies I will never get rid of, then used the Playful Alphabet to add "CHRISTMAS". In between each of the "M E R R Y" letters I added a banner with just snowflakes and the small Playful Alphabet letters to spell "CHRISTMAS". All of the banners are stapled over the twine so they can be slid back and forth to get the spacing correct depending on where you hang it.

I added adhesive with Adhesive Sheets before cutting out the snowflakes. This made assembly MUCH EASIER than trying to use liquid glue!

The gnomes (we made one banner with the Way To Goat stamp set but I forgot to take a picture before she took it away) were stamped with Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Stampin' Blends. I colored around each gnome with a Light Seaside Spray Stampin' Blend so I could easily cut around them.

Stampin’ Up! Giving Tuesday Keeps on Giving!

Posted on December 2, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there!

First, from now through December 9th (the last day you can order Stampin' Up! for Christmas delivery) I'm giving all orders free shipping! You heard that right! This is my special, not Stampin' Up!, so you'll need to send me your order via phone, text, email, or Facebook messenger. I will ship direct to you, and give you a total to pay minus the shipping. You either mail me a personal check or pay with Paypal using your debit or credit card.

Second, in honor of Giving Tuesday I'm donating 10% of all Stampin' Up! orders placed with me between now and December 9th to Students For Life Action. SFLA is a grass-roots organization working on college campuses across the USA to affect change in the dialog about abortion and the pro-life movement.

In SFLA's own words:

"Since 2006, Students for Life of America has trained more than 100,000 student activists nationwide and currently supports more than 1,250 Students for Life groups in all 50 states. Students for Life Action is deploying these energetic, passionate members of the Pro-Life Generation to the front-lines of the battlefield, where the abortion industry has identified they are the most vulnerable — state-level politics. Students for Life Action empowers and utilizes our pro-life movement’s best, untapped resource — an army of young people across the nation — to kick the abortion industry out of schools and ensure key state political victories to make abortion unprofitable, restrict abortion access, and prepare for a post-Roe America.
Our strategy is simple: Elections. Laws. Leaders."

The card I want to share with you today was created by my team member, Linda Reaney!

This is a "panel-bridge" card.

Posted on November 20, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have another creation with the Classic Christmas 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper.

I combined it with Coming Home Dies and Arrange A Wreath Bundle:

I really like the look of the Shaded Spruce wreath against the starred background! I used the

Stampin’ Up! Curvy Peaceful Nativity!

Posted on November 12, 2020 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a card created with the Curvy Christmas stamp set and Peaceful Nativity Bundle. The "streaky stars" from Curvy Christmas made me think of the night sky the night my Savior was born and this is the result of that inspiration:

This look was achieved by stamping the "streaky stars" three times with Versamark on the Night of Navy layer, then heat embossing with silver powder. I cut a star from Silver Foil with a Nativity Die.

I cut the stable from Basic Black card stock with a Nativity Die, as well as the Holy Family that I heat-embossed with silver on Night of Navy.

A simple greeting straight from Peaceful Nativity.

Inside:

Dimensions:

Night of Navy base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored & folded @ 4 1/4" layers: 4" x 5 1/4" Holy Family: 2" x 3" inside mat layer: 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"

Hey there! I finally got a chance to play with the Quite Curvy Variety Bundle! I made a Christmas card with Curvy Christmas stamps, Curvy Dies, and Classic Christmas 6" x 6" Designer Paper:

Every image used on this card is from the Curvy Christmas stamp set, inked in either Cherry Cobbler or Shaded Spruce. I added a single Shaded Spruce rhinestone from the Holiday Rhinestone pack for some sparkle. Holiday Rhinestones are my $50 ordering gift this month!
