Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Hey there! I'm back from church and everything is put away and cleaned up from Sunday dinner, so I've got a bit of time to share with you some Sunday Swaps. These samples are from an online group I'm a part of, and no one expects any credit for their creation since we are all sharing with each other to use for events or online, so here goes!

First, a lovely use of the SAB set, Lotus Blossom, stamped over a lightly-stamped Dictionary Background, mounted on a Cherry Cobbler layer, then a layer embossed with the Beautifully Baroque folder.

Next, a couple of ideas using the From the Herd Occasions Catalog set:

Stampin_up_from_the_herd_1

This one showcases how quickly you can add color with just a few swipes of the Aqua Painter and some ink refills. They coordinated the water coloring with Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, and Crisp Cantaloupe Thick Baker's Twine.

Stampin_up_from_the_herd_2

This sample using the free-with-a-$50-order Big Day stamp set also uses Irresistibly Yours Designer Paper colored with Pink Pirouette ink (the DSP is another item you can choose for free with your $50 order), and the glitzy Bermuda Bay Sequin Trim.

Stampin_up_big_day_2

This idea combines the Mini Treat Bag Thinlets Dies, Birthday Bash Designer Paper, and the Bow Builder Punch.  Purchase these three items and you will definitely have an order large enough to get the Big Day set for free!

This Snuggles & Smooches card would be a sweet girly baby card!

Stampin_up_snuggles_and_smooches

Lastly, this sample combines Crisp Cantaloupe with its' darker color friend, Calypso Coral. The bloom from Crazy About You is easily punched with the Flower Medallion Punch, and the greeting is from the free SAB set, Simply Wonderful.

That's all for now. I'm going to be sending out my newsletter this week, which will contain more stamping inspiration that includes a couple of instructional handouts. Only my newsletter subscribers will receive these ideas!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Lotus Blossom!

Stampin’ Up! Lotus Blossom!

Hey there! It's another FREEZING cold day here, but that can be said for much of the U.S., can't it? Last night I got to stamp with a lovely group of ladies that I love. Their group is not actually a club, because we keep having new stampers coming every month, but their event is a Mystery Hostess Stamp Camp!

Here's how it works:

Each stamper brings a finger food of their choice to the event. (if they can't bring a snack that's o.k. too) Everyone has the choice to either pay the flat $10 stamp camp fee or place an order of at least $30 to stamp the 4 cards for free. Everyone who places an order gets their name in a drawing to see who gets the Host Benefits from the combined total of the night's orders. Whoever was the hostess the month before is excluded from the drawing, even though they usually place an order anyway.

It works out pretty well; everyone seems to be happy and has a great time stamping, snacking, and visiting!

Here's one of the cards we made last night. This was inspired by a Leadership swap:
Stampin_up_lotus_blossom_1 - Copy
I just realized as I was adding my watermark to these pictures that it is out-of-date. It's 2015, isn't it? I've been so involved with my grandbabies that I haven't had time to think about my watermark date! Guess this goes on my "to do" list for next week!

Stampin_up_lotus_blossom_2 - Copy

This set, Lotus Blossom, is one of the sets you can choose from the Sale-a-bration brochure when you place a $50 order. About half of the stampers placing orders last night chose this set for their freebie!

That's all for now. If you would like to choose this set for your $50 order freebie, just go to my online store to place your order: http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/carolpayne/

Here's your shopping list for today's card:

 

 Don't forget, all orders of any amount placed in my online store will receive a Thank-you Project Packet in the mail from me!

Until tomorrow, which is Sunday Swap Day, have a Stampingrox! day!

Hey there! I've been catching up on things around here since I got home from Kimberly's on Tuesday night. I had a class at the Cozy Table in Benton, IL yesterday afternoon, then Mark's birthday was yesterday, and I have a Stamp Camp in Marion, IL tonight. Busy, busy, busy finishing up February!
