Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day May 1st!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day May 1st!

Hey there! These weeks are flying by! It's just two more days until the new Annual Catalog goes live! Can you hardly wait?

Since Mother's Day is next Sunday, I thought I'd better share this card created by Ami Wilson with the Daffodil Daydream bundle of stamps and dies, as well as the Tailor Made Tags dies!

Next, Deb McCahan created a soft & lovely card with the Grassy Grove Bundle.

The anonymous creator of this card also used Grassy Grove.

Laura Milligan also used Grassy Grove with Peaceful Moments to create this sympathy card.

Chris Wedell used Ranunculus Romance with Celebrating You and Pretty Flowers 3D embossing folder to create this soft & pretty sympathy card.

Finally, Stephanie Flath used the Waves of Inspiration stamp set to create this card that would work for a man or a woman!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Another Sneak Peek!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Another Sneak Peek!

Hey there! Today I have another Nature's Prints Sneak Peek; this time with the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper that is also in the suite with it!

For this card I used Gray Granite and Basic White again, but added in Starry Sky card stock to match the Starry Sky-stamped fern that is my focal image.

IMG_4011

Before I stamped the fern I used the large rectangle image from Watercolor Shapes to stamp a background with Gray Granite ink.

IMG_4012

I stamped the greeting from Nature's Prints with Starry Sky on Basic White, then cut with the label from the Nature's Prints dies. I colored the Rhinestone Basic Jewels with a Dark Starry Sky Stampin' Blends and tied a bit of Starry Sky 1/8" Metallic Ribbon for some sparkle.

IMG_4013

Inside I stamped another sentiment from Nature's Prints.

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Sneak Peek!

Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Prints Sneak Peek!

Hey there! Today I have a sneak peek of the new Annual Catalog bundle, Nature's Prints. My three cards today are a progression from beginner, to casual, to avid stamper.

Stampin_up_natures_prints_carolpaynestamps1

This beginner card is almost a simple as it gets! I did not use the dies from the bundle or the coordinating embossing folder. I simply cut four  1 1/2" x 1 1/2" squares of Basic White, stamped each one with a different Nature's Prints image in one of four different colors, and then adhered to a 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" square of Gray Granite. I popped the square on the card front with stampin' dimensionals, and left it at that! The colors I used to stamp the images were Gray Granite, Mango Melody, Pacific Point, and a new 2022/24 In Color Starry Sky! (the fern image is stamped with the Starry Sky)

Stampin_up_natures_prints_carolpaynestamps2

For the casual stamper card I used the same ink colors to stamp the same images on the same size Basic White squares, but layered them over a Gray Granite die-cut wreath that I used a Nature's Prints Die to cut, then adhered with dots of liquid glue. I added a few Classic Matte Dots for a bit more interest.

Stampin_up_natures_prints_carolpaynestamps3

For the Avid stamper card I cut a 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Gray Granite to emboss with the Fern 3D embossing folder. On top of that I added die-cuts that I stamped a Nature's Prints image with Gray Granite ink on Gray Granite card stock, then cut with a Nature's Prints die. I added the same Basic White squares stamped with the same images and more Classic Matte Dots.

Stampin_up_natures_prints_carolpaynestamps4

The inside of each card has another 4" x 5 1/4" layer of Gray Granite, then a 3 1/2" x 4 1/2" Basic White layer stamped with Nature's Prints images in Gray Granite and Pacific Point.

Stampin’ Up! He’s All That For Luke!

Stampin’ Up! He’s All That For Luke!

Hey there! I needed a masculine birthday card for my grandson-in-law, Luke, and the He's All That Bundle and He's the Man Specialty Designer Series Paper came to the rescue!

I started by cutting a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of the designer paper at the 3" line, flipping the 2 1/4" piece over and adhering to the top front of the Basic Black card base. I then adhered the Cajun Craze diagonal-striped layer.

For the focal greeting image I used one of the die-cuts from the sheets included in the designer paper pack, adhering to a slightly larger Basic Black mat layer. I then adhered to the card front with dimensionals.

IMG_4003

For the lower sentiment I cut Basic Black card stock with this cool die to create the background for the Tuxedo Black-stamped "love this guy". I cut it out with another one of the All That dies.

IMG_4002

Inside I used two sentiments from the Sending Smiles stamp set. I also stamped the corners of the layer with an image from the He's All That stamp set, all with black ink.

IMG_4008

I stamped this He's All That sentiment on the envelope flap!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds Candy Nests!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Songbirds Candy Nests!

Hey there! Today's project is CASED from a project I saw created by Laura Mellinger. I changed a few things, such as punching the birdies from the new 2022-24 In Color 6" x 6" Glimmer Paper, and using toothpicks for the sign posts, but I loved her design so much I couldn't vary from it much!

I used the Sweet Songbird Bundle of stamps and punch to create these:

Stampin_up_sweet_songbirds_candy_nests_carolpaynestamps1

This little birdie was punched from an ombre-hued Sweet Sorbet sheet of Glimmer Paper.

The "nest" is constructed from a 3" x 3" square of Soft Suede, scored at one inch on all four sides, then cut in one inch along score lines on parallel sides of the square. The flaps are then folded up and glued to form a one-inch square box. The two nests are stamped on Soft Suede card stock with Soft Suede ink, then cut with Paper Snips. After cutting, the nests are then glued to opposite sides of the box.

Stampin_up_sweet_songbirds_candy_nests_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped the birdie eyes directly on the glimmer paper with Tuxedo Black ink. The beak is punched with the Songbird Builder punch from Basic Black card stock and added with a tiny drop of liquid glue. The wing is also punched with the Songbird Builder and glued.

Stampin_up_sweet_songbirds_candy_nests_carolpaynestamps3

I created the sign by stamping the woodgrain image from the Sweet Songbirds set with stamped-off-once Soft Suede ink, then stamping the sentiment  with black ink. I cut it with Paper Snips, then used a couple of glue dots to adhere to one end of a toothpick. I also stamped and cut out the musical notes before adding with a dot of glue.

Stampin_up_sweet_songbirds_candy_nests_carolpaynestamps4

I rolled the toothpick on the glue dots to wrap them around the wood before adhering to the sign and to the inside of the nest.

Stampin_up_sweet_songbirds_candy_nests_carolpaynestamps7

I also made an Orchid Oasis birdie, punched from Orchid Oasis Glimmer paper,

and a Tahitian Tide one!

Hey there! Today's project is CASED from a project I saw created by Laura Mellinger. I changed a few things, such as punching the birdies from the new 2022-24 In Color 6" x 6" Glimmer Paper, and using toothpicks for the sign posts, but I loved her design so much I couldn't vary from it much!

I used the Sweet Songbird Bundle of stamps and punch to create these:

This little birdie was punched from an ombre-hued Sweet Sorbet sheet of Glimmer Paper.

The "nest" is constructed from a 3" x 3" square of Soft Suede, scored at one inch on all four sides, then cut in one inch along score lines on parallel sides of the square. The flaps are then folded up and glued to form a one-inch square box. The two nests are stamped on Soft Suede card stock with Soft Suede ink, then cut with Paper Snips. After cutting, the nests are then glued to opposite sides of the box.

I stamped the birdie eyes directly on the glimmer paper with Tuxedo Black ink. The beak is punched with the Songbird Builder punch from Basic Black card stock and added with a tiny drop of liquid glue. The wing is also punched with the Songbird Builder and glued.

I created the sign by stamping the woodgrain image from the Sweet Songbirds set with stamped-off-once Soft Suede ink, then stamping the sentiment  with black ink. I cut it with Paper Snips, then used a couple of glue dots to adhere to one end of a toothpick. I also stamped and cut out the musical notes before adding with a dot of glue.

I rolled the toothpick on the glue dots to wrap them around the wood before adhering to the sign and to the inside of the nest.

I also made an Orchid Oasis birdie, punched from Orchid Oasis Glimmer paper,

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day April 24!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day April 24!

Hey there! Today is our family's gathering for Easter at our house. I am very thankful that this year I am able to host. Last year I was still fragile-but-recovering from my post-covid anxiety attacks so we gathered at my daughter, Alisa's house. I am also very thankful for modern medicines that have helped me in my recovery.

I have a pretty collection of sympathy cards to share with you today!

First, Laura Barto used the Grassy Grove Bundle to create her pretty card:
