Stampin’ Up! What’s Cookin’ For Christmas!

Stampin’ Up! What’s Cookin’ For Christmas!

Hey there! First off, I want to thank everyone who shopping the 24-Hour Sale in my online store yesterday! I'm so glad you all were able to get stamp sets you've been wanting at a good sale price!

Today I have another Christmas card I created for my Stamp-a-Stack this weekend. I used the Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Cards & Envelopes with the What's Cookin'? bundle, as well as a few other dies:

Stampin_up_whats_cookin_carolpaynestamps1

I created the "cookie sheet" with Silver Foil and the Detailed Trio punch to round the corners. A simple 1/4" score line then a little folding creating the ends. I cut the cookie from Cinnamon Cider card stock and the white icing using Gingerbread dies.

Stampin_up_whats_cookin_carolpaynestamps3

This Real Red "Christmas" was cut with a Word Wishes die.

Stampin_up_whats_cookin_carolpaynestamps4

"Cookies" is from the Love You More Than dies.

Stampin_up_whats_cookin_carolpaynestamps5

The cookie spatula was cut from Basic Black card stock using a Cookin' die.

Stampin_up_whats_cookin_carolpaynestamps6

Inside the Real Red-stamped "Christmas Greetings is from the Sweet Little Stockings stamp set, and the rest of the sentiment is from What's Cookin'? stamped with Cinnamon Cider. I added a snowflake cookie cut with another Gingerbread die.

The card I'm sharing with you today is one that I've created for my Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack at my house this weekend with the Bright Baubles Bundle:

Stampin_up_bright_baubles_carolpaynestamps1

I used the pre-cut and scored Basic White Note Cards & Envelopes to make prepping for this card kit quick and easy! I cut the white snowflake ornament from Snowy White 12" x 12" Velvet and the circle underneath is Green Foil. I accented the ornament with Real Red 3/8" Sheer Ribbon and a diamond-shaped Silver Epoxy Essential.

Stampin_up_bright_baubles_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped "MERRY & BRIGHT" from the Bright Baubles stamp set with Real Red ink on a 1/2" x 3 1/8" scrap of Basic White. The Red, White, and Green colors contrast nicely with the Basic Gray/Smoky Slate/White colors of the Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Paper strip in the background.

Stampin_up_bright_baubles_carolpaynestamps4

I used more Bright Baubles images on the inside, stamped with Real Red and Smoky Slate.

Stampin’ Up! Words of Cheer Corner Fold and a One Day Sale Tomorrow!

Stampin’ Up! Words of Cheer Corner Fold and a One Day Sale Tomorrow!

Hey there! Today I have a cute card to share with you AND information about the 24-Hour Stamp Sale going on tomorrow, October 20th, ONLY!

First, the sale information and then the card!

10-21_header_24hr_stampset_na_

This sale is 15% off a select list of CLING-MOUNT stamp sets in the Annual Catalog. This sale does not apply to Holiday Catalog stamp sets or photopolymer (clear) stamps.

Here's the flyer with the complete list:

Download Oct 2021 Stamp Set Sale List

At first glance this list may look as if every stamp set in the catalog is on sale. Only all of the CLING (red rubber) stamps are on sale 15% off. So check the list and check your catalog and place your order as early as you can before the website gets bogged down with late-evening ordering!

Now, here's my card to share with you today, a Corner Flap-Fold with Tidings of Christmas Designer Paper and the Words of Cheer Bundle!

Stampin_up_words_of_cheer_carolpaynestamps2

I used Cherry Cobbler, Evening Evergreen, Sahara Sand, and Soft Succulent to coordinate with the colors in the Tidings of Christmas designer paper. I cut out the greeting with a Stitched So Sweetly Die.

Stampin_up_words_of_cheer_carolpaynestamps5

I used a Christmas Cheer die to cut the Cherry Cobbler twigs, then adhered them with Gold Holly Leaves using glue dots. The Gold Holly Leaves are my gift with a $50 online purchase this month! I finished them off with Cherry Cobbler Holiday Rhinestones, which are easy to add because they have their own adhesive on the back!

Stampin_up_words_of_cheer_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I stamped another Words of Cheer sentiment in Cherry Cobbler and stamped the bouquet behind it with stamped-off-once Soft Succulent.

Stampin’ Up! Chalkboard Technique!

Stampin’ Up! Chalkboard Technique!

Hey there and welcome to the October edition of the Stampers Dozen Blog Hop! Our October theme is a fun technique, Chalkboard!

1800397_10152216696440070_2004070056_n

I used the Merriest Moments Bundle to create two card with the Chalkboard Technique. First I cut & embossed the frame with Snowy White 12" x 12" specialty paper using the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps1-1

I heat embossed the sentiment from Merriest Moments using white embossing powder and my Heat Tool. After heating, I cut it out with the rectangle die from the set (the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder name is a bit misleading, the package also contains dies) then added smudges of white craft ink using a Blending Brush to look like an old-fashioned chalkboard.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps2-1

The poinsettia image is from Merriest Moments. I cut it and the gold bloom with more dies from the Merriest Frames pack. I finished it off with a Gilded Gem.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps3

These little cuties are part of it too. I cut them from Cherry Cobbler card stock!

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I stamped another Merriest Moments sentiment with black ink.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps5

For my second chalkboard creation, I used Blushing Bride for a softer color palette.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps6

I used the same heat embossing method as with the first card, then added the chalkboard smudges again with white craft ink and a Blending Brush.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps7

The Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder includes these pretty scattered "sparkles" when you emboss an entire layer of card stock.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps8

I tied a few inches of Blushing Bride 3/8" Frayed Grosgrain in a pretty knot then wrapped the ends around the chalkboard layer.

Stampin_up_merriest_moments_carolpaynestamps9

Inside and out I added a few Elegant Gems in the Petal Pink color for some sparkle. I stamped the inside sentiment with Blushing Bride ink.
