Stampin’ Up! From All of Us for Lando!

Posted on February 26, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card was created with the From All of Us stamp set and the Give It a Whirl Dies. I created it to give to my grandson, Lando, when we celebrated his 7th birthday last Sunday. (Lando and Darcy were born barely a month apart and have always been best friends).

After stamping with Tuxedo Black Memento ink, I colored the group for the front of Lando's card with Stampin' Blends, then cut out with my Paper Snips. I adhered them to the Bark 3D embossed layer that I had previously cut with one of the Give It a Whirl Dies with dimensionals.

The phrases and hearts showing through the dial-a-phrase window are included in From All of Us!

Inside I stamped a sentiment from Happiest of Birthdays and finished it off with one of the trees included in From All of Us.

I used a Black Stampin' Write Marker (available to order all by itself, however I forgot to include it in the supply list posted below) to stamp just the ostrich on the envelope.

Stampin’ Up! Bluey for Fiona!

Posted on February 25, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card could be classified as "punch art", except I didn't use any punches! I created a special "Bluey" card for my 2 year-old granddaughter, Fiona, who loves to watch the Australian hit cartoon show, "Bluey". If you aren't familiar with it then you probably don't have any littles in your family right now, but once you see it you will be hooked! It's a skillfully crafted show for young and old alike! I love to watch the love and nonsense, as well as life lessons, this show presents!

Instead of punches I used a set of dies from the January/June Mini Catalog called Beautiful Shapes!

With the addition of the ears this card will not fit in our regular medium envelopes, but if you shortened the base of the card to take the length of the ears into account you could make it fit.

Basically, I used the shapes of the dies to create the parts of the Bluey face. I had to do a little bit of snipping to create the nose and mouth, but that is all. I used a White Stampin' Chalk Marker to add the light to her eyes. I cut the letters for Fiona's name from Night of Navy card stock using Playful Alphabet dies. I added Adhesive Sheet to the back of the card stock before cutting so it would be easy to adhere to the card.

Inside I used a sentiment from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set with Night of Navy ink, then added hearts from the From All of Us stamp set ( I will show you the cards I made with that set tomorrow!) using Daffodil Delight ink.

I had fun making this "punch art" (actually "die art") for Fiona! I've been told she has been carrying it around the house this week kissing it and saying "blue"!

Stampin’ Up! Pop-Up Whale Done!

Posted on January 12, 2022 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have my final card created with the Whale Done stamp set and Whale Builder Punch! Although more time consuming to make, this one is probably my favorite!

For this one I used Pool Party for my card base, 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2". I embossed a 4" x 5 1/4" Basic White with the Seashells 3D embossing folder, then softly added Pool Party ink to the raised images with a Blending Brush.

I stamped the greeting from Happiest of Birthdays with Bermuda Bay ink, cut with a Tasteful Labels die, then stamped the seaweed to match the hand-cut Granny Apple Green seaweed I adhered to the card front with liquid glue. I added a few Coastal Cabana Artistry Blooms Adhesive-Backed Sequins for a bit of sparkle.

When you open the card two Pool Party whales pop up! I adhered them to 1/2" wide pieces of window sheet (clear acetate) that I sandwiched between two pieces of Pool Party card stock, 1" x 4", scored at 1/2". I adhered the window sheet strips with Tear & Tape adhesive, then adhered the remaining edges over the inside fold the the card with liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from Happiest of Birthdays with Bermuda Bay ink on a Pool Party piece of Simply Marbleous Sale-a-bration paper, then added a seahorse with Bermuda Bay ink and seaweed and fish with Granny Apple Green. The fish and seahorse are found in the Whale Done set.

With the Whale Builder Punch I was able to add a whale to both sides of the window sheet strip, and was even able to coordinate the fins!

I used my Blending Brush to add Pool Party ink around the sides of the whales to give them some depth.

I finished the remaining inside layer with another piece of Pool Party Simply Marbleous paper and Whale done images.

Place your order in my online store and you can choose your own pack of Simply Marbleous Designer Paper with a $50 purchase! There are 5 stamp sets, 3 designer series paper packs, and one stampset/designer paper bundle to choose from (one larger stamp set and the bundle are available to choose with a $100 purchase).

My grandkids are always excited to receive one of my cards, this one did not disappoint!

I had fun making this one! I even inked the inside of the Tasteful Textiles 3D embossing folder with Pacific Point ink before I inserted the Pacific Point card stock. I embossed after I had cut the layer with the Give It A Whirl dies.

Stampin’ Up! A Good Man for Jim!

Posted on July 8, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I still haven't been able to do any stamping this week with Vacation Bible School still going on (two more nights!), but I remembered I had this card I'm sharing with you today in my stash. I had taken the pictures minutes before giving the card away!

I needed a masculine birthday card in a hurry one day last week, so I reached for the A Good Man stamp set and my new Give It A Whirl dies for some fun!

I used three of the eight sentiments in this set to stamp in the three "windows" of the card.

The wheel you turn has little scallops on it to make it easier to grab with your finger. The simple contraption is secured in the center with a brad. The dies cut the holes for the brad as you cut out the pieces, so there's no guesswork of where to put the holes!

This sentiment is my fave!

Sentiment #3!

Inside I used a sentiment from Peaceful Moments. I stamped the "HAPPY B-DAY" from Happiest of Birthdays on the envelope flap.

The give it a whirl dies may look complicated, but I was able to figure it out without having any written or video instruction. (I'm not bragging, they are just THAT EASY!)

Order them today and take your card making up a notch!

Stampin’ Up! Artistically Inked Pretty Flowers!

Posted on May 29, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I seem to be on a birthday card-making kick lately, and it continues today with this Soft Succulent/Basic White version featuring the Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder:

I adhered an Adhesive Sheet to the back of the Basic White card stock before cutting with the Artistic Die. Adhesive Sheets make adhering intricate die-cuts a snap!

I added subtle color the the embossed Soft Succulent layer (on the left) by rubbing my Versamark ink pad on the negative side of the embossing folder before running through the machine.

I punched one end of the greeting strip with the Lovely Labels Pick-a-Punch. Soft Succulent 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon and Genial Gems complete the soft, inviting look.

I used another Happiest of Birthdays sentiment inside the card. I used another die-cut as a stencil to add Soft Succulent ink with a Blending Brush to both the inside layer and the envelope.
