Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Expressions In Ink!

Stampin’ Up! Quite Curvy Expressions In Ink!

Hey there! Today I paired the Expressions In Ink Designer Series Paper with the soon-to-be-retiring Quite Curvy Bundle from the Spring Mini Catalog!

Stampin_up_quite_curvy_carolpaynestamps1 (2)

After I cut the front white layer with one of the Curvy dies, I embossed with the Pretty Flowers folder and then layered over a strip of Expressions In Ink designer paper, leaving about an inch of the designer paper showing. (See the measurements at the bottom of this post to re-create!)

I stamped the Quite Curvy greeting with Shaded Spruce ink, then cut with an Ornate Frames die. I finished off the card front with the gold leaves and iridescent sequins from the Expressions In Ink Ephemera Pack.

Inside I stamped another sentiment from Quite Curvy with the same Shaded Spruce ink.

Although this sentiment was already curved, I curved it more to fit the inside of my card.

Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Nativity Starlight!

Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Nativity Starlight!

Hey there! I created my "starlight" card today with Peaceful Nativity once again, and used Trimming The Town Designer Series Paper, which is another one of the packs on sale this month for 15% off!

Stampin_up_trimming_the_town_starlight_circle_carolpaynestamps2

I cut the circle mat, star, and side strips from Champagne Foil.

Stampin_up_trimming_the_town_starlight_circle_carolpaynestamps3

I punched the ends of the greeting with the Banners Pick-a-Punch.

Stampin_up_trimming_the_town_starlight_circle_carolpaynestamps5

Inside:

Stampin_up_trimming_the_town_starlight_circle_carolpaynestamps7

Finally, a tutorial for the Starlight Technique!

Cut Whisper White with a Layering Circle Die. Adhere it to your grid sheet with a tiny bit of adhesive on the back. Line up the center of the circle with the bold lines of the grid.

Starlight circle 1

Lay the edge of a Post-it note from the top center to the corner of one of the grid squares. Use a sponge dauber to lightly sponge Misty Moonlight ink along the edge of the Post-it.

Starlight circle 2-1

Move the post-it down two squares on the grid and sponge again.

Starlight circle 5

Continue moving the post-it down one square, pivoting the top of the post-it from the same spot a the top of the circle. You may need to dab off the excess of Misty Moonlight ink before sponging along the post-it edge.

Starlight circle 8

It's now ready to stamp with Peaceful Nativity!

Stampin’ Up! Tree Angle!

Stampin’ Up! Tree Angle!

Hey there!  Tree Angle from the Holiday Catalog coordinates with the Right Triangle Bundle in the Annual Catalog! I used Tree Angle stamps and the Stitched Triangle dies from the Bundle to create this Christmas card for a stamp camp a few weeks ago:

Stampin_up_tree_angle_carolpaynestamps2

I embossed the Crumb Cake layer with the Tin Tile 3D embossing folder, then sponged with Crumb Cake ink. I embossed the Red Foil layer with the Dainty Diamonds 3D embossing folder. I embellished the trees with Gilded Gems at the top and Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels. The gold cording is from the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack. I love the combo packs of ribbon! you can get two or sometimes three different ribbons for a good price! Each ribbon is usually 5 yards, so you won't have a lot left over!

Stampin_up_tree_angle_carolpaynestamps4

I punched the ends of the greeting strip with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch.

Stampin’ Up! Mother’s Love!

Stampin’ Up! Mother’s Love!

Hey there! Just a quick post this morning. There are about 25 people coming to my house today for Mother's Day dinner (don't worry, I'm not doing ALL of that cooking, we are getting some KFC, and using disposable plates, cups, etc)

I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Mother's Day and share this card with you. I belong to a Facebook group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators that shares card ideas. Each month I share a card idea and then I can share any of the other ideas that month with you!

Even though this card was created by a UK demo, the sentiment still rings true:

Mothers love

That's all for now! Hope all of you mother's have a lovely day!

Until tomorrow, which will be Sunday Swap Day on Monday, have a Stampingrox! day!
