Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Wishes Wreath!

Posted on November 19, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a pretty snowflake card I CASE'd from myself! I CASE'd my Stampers Dozen Blog Hop card HERE to turn it into a Christmas card!

I used the Pearlescent Specialty paper from the Annual Catalog to stamp the snowflakes from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set with stamped-off-once Misty Moonlight ink. After stamping I then embossed with the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder. The Pearlescent paper is so much more shimmery in real life, this picture simply doesn't do it justice!

I cut the wreath with three different layers: vellum on the bottom, Silver Foil Specialty in the middle, and Misty Moonlight on the top. I adhered each with tiny dots of liquid glue.I tied a bit of 1 1/2" Metallic Mesh Ribbon, also found in the Annual Catalog, into a perky bow and added it with a glue dot.

I heat embossed the greeting from For Unto Us onto Misty Moonlight card stock, then double-punched with the Label Me Lovely Punch to get the smaller label. I also accented the card front with a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Here's how I double-punched the greeting label. I only partially punched the embossed greeting once as shown here:

Then I attached a post-it-note to the punched piece to re-insert into the punch to punch the other side.

I used a sentiment from Snowflake Wishes on the inside and added a layer of Silver Foil behind it.

Here's a paper-saving tip! Cut the Silver Foil wreath layer out of the center of the inside foil layer before adhering to the inside of the card. After you add the stamped Very Vanilla layer (which coordinates with the creaminess of the Pearlescent Specialty paper better than Basic White) over it no one will ever know!

Stampin’ Up! Sparkle of the Season Two-Four-Six-Eight Box!

Posted on November 16, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm back again today with a companion piece to my Sparkle of the Season card from yesterday, a Thanksgiving two-four-six-eight box!

I learned how to make these boxes years ago (I just celebrated my 19th anniversary as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator on November 11th) They are super simple to make!

Dimensions are 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 2", 4", and 6" along the 8 1/2" side, then scored at 2" across the long end.

After scoring, then cut and fold:

Pinch the top:

Then flatten to add the closure you prefer.

For this box I used a hand-held punch to make a notch in the folds to wrap the Linen Thread around.

I used three 16-inch lengths of Linen Thread, tied in a knot in the center to wrap around the box tightly and to tie in a loopy bow.

I created the mini-wreath with stamped & cut images from Sparkle of the Season Bundle in Mossy Meadow and Cajun Craze on Cinnamon Cider, along with die-cut Gold Metallic Specialty Paper. I cut a small circle with a Layering Circle Die to adhere the wreath "branches".

I used the same Tasteful Labels die from yesterday's card, but I made the label smaller by cutting it twice with the same die. I stamped the sentiment, cut once with the banner label die. then lined up the stitching again on the longer end and held it all in place with a Post-It-Note while I cranked it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine a second time.

Voila!

I added a few Gilded Gems for some sparkle.

These boxes are perfect Thanksgiving table favors. They will hold and small handful of candy corn or of course chocolate!

Stampin’ Up! Grateful Thanksgiving!

Posted on November 14, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's time for the November Stampers Dozen Blog Hop!

Our November theme is Grateful Thanksgiving! I can't wait to see what everyone creates!

For my project I decided to create a Thanksgiving wreath card with the Sparkle of the Season Bundle!

I started with a Soft Suede card base, then stamped a Crumb Cake layer with Gorgeous Leaves and Crumb Cake ink. I then embossed the layer with the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder.

Here's the layer before embossing:

And after:

I cut the wreath layers from Mossy Meadow, Cinnamon Cider, and Rose Gold Metallic Specialty Paper.

I love the subtle sparkle of the Rose Gold Metallic paper!

I accented the card with a few Gilded Gems and stamped a Sparkle of the Season sentiment with Cajun Craze ink before cutting with a Tasteful Labels die.

Inside I stamped the same leaves on the Crumb Cake sentiment layer, then stamped another Sparkle of the Season sentiment with Cajun Craze ink.

Our Newest Granddaughter is Here!

Posted on November 11, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I don't have anything new stamping-wise to share with you today, but I do have quite a stash of pictures to share of my newest granddaughter, Scarlett Adaline! Scarlett is my 13th grandchild and the 8th granddaughter!

Scarlett is the daughter of my son, Troy, and his beautiful wife, Grace! If you've followed my blog over the years you probably know that Troy waited and prayed for a wife for many years. He was about to give up when God brought Grace into his life. They've been married since March of 2019, when Troy was 36. Now he is a new dad just a few weeks before he turns 39! BTW, Grace is 12 years younger than Troy, but she doesn't mind a bit!

This picture was taken late last winter when Grace was just a few weeks along in her pregnancy. Don't they make a handsome couple?

Here's Grace just a couple of weeks before Scarlett's birth:

On Halloween:

After a couple of sleepless nights of labor, Miss Scarlett finally made her entrance into the world via c-section. I love how happy Troy's eyes are holding his baby girl!

Troy, Grace, and Scarlett. Scarlett has blonde hair just like her mommy and daddy!

I'm not sure what the purpose of the Boppy pillow is around Troy's neck, but it makes a cute picture anyway!

I was thrilled to get to visit them before Scarlett was 24 hours old! Scarlett weighed 8 lbs, 13 oz, and has her mommy's chubby cheeks!

A tired but happy mommy and baby got to go home yesterday!

That's it for today! Hopefully tomorrow I will have a new project to share with you!

Next week is the Seasonal Sale with Stampin' Up!

November 16-18 only, take 10% off card stock, 15% off inkpads (some exclusions apply), and 20% all dies in the Annual Catalog!

And YES you CAN combine the Seasonal Sale with the Start with Savings Starter Kit Special! Get even more value in your kit!

You DON'T have to do parties or sell to anyone but yourself, taking advantage of your 20% Demonstrator discount with every order you place!

But if you do want to do a party now and then or want to build a Stampin' Business, I can help you with that! Just contact me with questions!

Stampin’ Up! Jar of Flowers Calendar Card!

Posted on November 10, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have another easel calendar to share with you. This one took a little bit longer to put together than the last one I shared with you, but it was totally worth the effort! I used the Jar of Flowers stamp set and Pierced Blooms dies:
