Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow!

Stampin’ Up! Quiet Meadow!

Hey there! Quiet Meadow is perfect for collage-style stamping. I used this bundle of stamps and dies to create some "Thinking of You" cards to use for both a "get well" type card and a sympathy.

Stampin_up_quiet_meadow_sympathy_carolpaynestamps1

I used stamped-off once and sometimes twice Crumb Cake, Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz, and Blushing Bride for my collage-stamped background. After heat embossing the greeting with white powder I cut it out with a Meadow die. I added gold Metallic Pearls for more interest.

Stampin_up_quiet_meadow_sympathy_carolpaynestamps2

The majority of the Meadow dies are stand-alone, which means they don't coordinate with an image in the Quiet Meadow stamp set. I used one of them to cut Pear Pizzazz card stock to create the floral piece I glued over the floral image I stamped with full-strength Crumb Cake.

I tied Linen Thread into a double bow and added with a glue dot.

Everything on the inside is also from Quiet Meadow.

Stampin’ Up! Treasures of Life!

Stampin’ Up! Treasures of Life!

Hey there! Lately I have noticed that many of my friends, stamping and otherwise, are becoming grandparents. In some cases they are even becoming great-grandparents, so the Treasures of Life stamp set from the 2021 January-June Mini Catalog is coming in quite handy! I sat down yesterday and made a small stack of these cards to have on hand:

Stampin_up_treasures_of_life_carolpaynestamps1

I combined the sweet images and sentiments from Treasures of Life with the stacked hearts from another 2021 J-J Mini Catalog Set, Lots of Heart, and the coordinating dies, Many Hearts.

Stampin_up_treasures_of_life_carolpaynestamps2

For the feminine version I used Crumb Cake and Blushing Bride with Soft Suede ink and white heat embossing.

Stampin_up_treasures_of_life_carolpaynestamps3

I tied one of the sweet little charms I bought on Amazon with the Blushing Bride Twine from the Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack, also found in the 2021 J-J Mini Catalog. I'll put the link to the charms right above my supply list at the bottom of this post.

Stampin_up_treasures_of_life_carolpaynestamps4

I love the sentiments in the Treasures of Life set!

Stampin_up_treasures_of_life_carolpaynestamps5

For the boy version I created essentially the same card, using Balmy Blue card stock and cutting the focal image with the smooth heart instead of the scalloped in the Many Hearts Dies. I tied the charm with the white twine from the Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack.

Hey there! Happy Catalog Launch Day! Today is the first day you can order from the NEW 2021-2022 Annual Catalog!

Just message me your name, email, and snail mail address and I will send one to you right away!

Today I have a simple little card for you created with the Hand-Penned Suite.

Stampin_up_hand_penned_petals_carolpaynestamps1

I punched the sentiment from Hand-Penned Petals with the Double Oval Punch, then used the scalloped oval part of the punch to make the Soft Succulent mat. I added a bow tied with Pale Papaya 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon.

Stampin_up_hand_penned_petals_carolpaynestamps2

The inside sentiment and image are from another new catalog set, Color & Contour. I stamped the blooms with Blushing Bride ink.

Stampin’ Up! Gilded Art Gallery!

Stampin’ Up! Gilded Art Gallery!

Hey there! I've been playing with the Gold Gilded Leafing Embellishment some, experimenting with other ways to use it. My card today uses it two ways, with the Heat & Stick Powder and with Adhesive Sheets!

Stampin_up_art_gallery_carolpaynestamps1

After stamping the most solid bloom with Misty Moonlight ink, I then stamped with the 2nd bloom layer using Versamark. After sprinkling with Heat & Stick powder and melting with my Heat Tool, I then pressed it into my container of Gilded Leafing. I then used a stipple brush to brush the excess back into the container.

Stampin_up_art_gallery_carolpaynestamps2

For the sentiment, I applied an adhesive sheet to both sides of a piece of Basic White card stock, then cut with the die.  I then removed the adhesive cover from the words and applied the gilded leafing in the same way as before. Then I removed the adhesive cover from the back side to adhere to the card.

The inside sentiment is also from Art Gallery.

Stampin’ Up! Kangaroo & Company Baby Girl Card!

Stampin’ Up! Kangaroo & Company Baby Girl Card!

Hey there! While I was creating baby girl cards, I created another pair with the Kangaroo & Company stamp set from the Spring Mini Catalog. These cards are a combination of Sneak Peeks and current product.

Stampin_up_kangaroo_&_co_carolpaynestamps1

Sneak Peeks are from the Polished Pink card stock and ink, and the Scalloped Contours Dies.

Stampin_up_kangaroo_&_co_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped the mama & baby with Memento ink on Shimmery White card stock, then colored with Stampin' Blends. I colored around the edges of them first with the darker blend, then used the lighter one to soften the lines. The die to cut out the mama includes a slit to add the baby in her pocket!

Stampin_up_kangaroo_&_co_carolpaynestamps4

I used a Snail die from the Snailed it bundle to cut the word bubble around the greeting from the Kangaroo & Company set.

Stampin_up_kangaroo_&_co_carolpaynestamps3

I stamped the inside sentiment from Life's Treasures, another Spring Mini Catalog set, on a Basic White layer I cut with the next-size smaller die in the Scalloped Contours Die.
