Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop in New In Colors!

Posted on May 21, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a pretty bunch of cards to share with you today, all created with the Flower Shop and Rose Wonder stamp sets, Whisper White card stock, White Organza Ribbon, and the 2016/18 new In Colors! Yes, it's time to get to know them!

Let's start off with my favorite new color, Flirty Flamingo!

I stamped full-strength and then stamped again without re-inking for this one! An easy technique that doesn't require a lot of extra supplies!

I tied the ribbon into a knot before wrapping around the card front and securing on the back side of the Flirty Flamingo layer with SNAIL.

All of these cards have a bloom from the Flower Shop set punched with the Pansy Punch, then a coordinating Petite Petals-punched bloom in the center. I finished off the centers with a White Perfect Accent.

Isaiah 41:10 is one of my favorite Bible verses!

Dapper Denim is another pretty new In Color!

The phrases in the Rose Wonder set are so versatile, they can be used on card fronts and inside!

Sweet Sugarplum is a bright and "plummy" color!

Peekaboo Peach!

Emerald Envy!

All of the 2016/18 In Colors:

These new In Colors will be available to start ordering on June 1st!

Right now you can still shop from the Retiring List. Find it and place your order in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Petals Badges & Banners!

Posted on May 20, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have the third card I created using the Pretty Petals Designer Series Paper Stack!

I combined retiring Pretty Petals Designer Series Paper with current Mint Macaron, Basic Black, and Very Vanilla card stocks, Calypso Coral ink, Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder, Elegant Dots Textured Impressions Folder, Gold Metallic Thread, and NEW SNEAK PEEK Badges & Banners stamp set!

Oh, and another Sneak Peek: the curvy banner ends peeking out from behind the "enjoy your day" badge are punched with the new Duet Banner punch!

I wanted the "badge" to have a little more pop, so I stamped with Calypso Coral on Very Vanilla, quickly sprinkled with Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder, and heated with my Heat Tool. After hand-cutting it out (after June 1st I will be ordering the new Best Badge Punch to take on this task for me!) I popped it up with Stampin' Dimensionals and added a Basic Black Duet Banner behind it.

Inside I flanked a greeting from Greatest Greetings with strips of Pretty Petals Designer Paper. I also lined my envelope with Pretty Petals DSP.

REMEMBER: ALL NON-STAMP PRODUCTS ON THE RETIRING LIST ARE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST, AND THE STAMPS WILL ALSO BECOME WHILE-SUPPLIES-LAST BEGINNING ON MAY 22ND!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Petals

Posted on May 19, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have the second of the three cards I created a few days ago using the Pretty Petals Designer Series Paper Stack!

I used a sentiment from the new catalog Badges & Banners set for my greeting!

After stamping the greeting with Archival Basic Black ink, I quickly sprinkled Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and heated with my Heat Tool. I stamped the same image on Basic Black, then cut both out with Paper Snips (when the new catalog starts on June 1st there is a Best Badge punch that will be bundled with the Badges & Banners set). I cut the black badge in half, then added it to the back of the sentiment badge, leaving about an 1/8 of an inch open in the middle so the black badge peeks out above and below the sentiment.

Inside I stamped "happy" from Endless Birthday Wishes and "Birthday" from Marquee Messages. I also added Calypso Coral tiny blossoms and Old Olive leaves, both from the new Love & Affection set.

Here are the supplies you can order right now from my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Achiever’s Blog Hop, New Catalog Sneak Peek!

Posted on May 17, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! A little early this month because of the cruise, but it's time for the hop!

Welcome to the Grand Vacation Achievers Blog Hop for May. This month our theme is 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue Sneak Peek. We are so excited to be able to show you these amazing BRAND NEW products that you will be able to purchase on June 1st!

You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog – Carol Payne Stamps, or may have come from the person previous to me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects. At the moment you are visiting Carol Payne.

For my Sneak Peek creation I took some inspiration from my sister Stamper's Dozen Blog Hopper, BJ Peters. BJ combined the new Painter's Palette and Love & Affection stamp sets to create a really awesome One-Sheet Wonder Class. I CASED her idea of combining those two stamp sets, as well as her color palette of Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, and Pear Pizzazz. I added my own twists to it by using a Basic Black card base, subtle splatters of Crumb Cake, and a fun fold!

Painter's Palette has a really fun easel image, so I decided to play on that and created an "Easel-Easel" card!

It looks like an ordinary card at first, but then when you open it, TA DA!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

This color palette of Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, Pear Pizzazz, Crumb Cake, and Whisper White just screamed at me to add more Basic Black, so that's why I made it my easel card base. It''s simply an extra score line and an additional layer: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2" and 8 1/4", with an added layer of Basic Black that starts out at 3 5/8" x 4 7/8".

The fonts of both stamp sets coordinate well. "sending a smile your way" from Love & Affection is the perfect size for the "door stop" for the easel to stand.

LOTS of room for sentiments and a personal message too!

All of these products will be available to order in my online store on June 1st! www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Thanks for taking part in our blog hop, there are so many amazing ideas and inspiration you don't want to miss them all! Remember that currently you are at my blog – Carol Payne, so check the blog hop line up list to see who is next!

That's all for now, until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Petals Thoughtful Banners!

Posted on May 17, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I have a quick card that I created to use more of the Pretty Petals Designer Paper before it retires. I combined retiring, carrying-over, and Sneak Peek products to create this:

I started with a Kraft card stock base that I embossed with the Woodgrain folder. I adhered a piece of Pretty Petals Designer Paper, then added the punched greeting and a bow tied with Metallic Gold Baker's Twine.

"hello sweet friend" are all individual phrases from a sneak peek set from the new 2016/17 Annual Catalog called Thoughtful Banners. After stamping on Very Vanilla with Old Olive and Calypso Coral, I punched with the sneak peek Duet Banner punch. I punched two more Duet Banners from Kraft card stock scraps to frame the greeting label. After adding the greeting with Stampin' Dimensionals, I added a Gold Metallic Baker's Twine bow with a glue dot.

Inside I used the same inks to stamp a sentiment, blooms and leaves from the Birthday Blossoms set. The blooms coordinate well with the Calypso Coral blooms in the Pretty Petals paper.

Although some of the supplies used today are retiring, you can still order them from my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Blooms Fun Fold By Becky!

Posted on May 16, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card was created by my dear friend and downline, Becky Anderson. Last month Becky moved from Illinois to Arizona, but she mailed an entry to our Fun Fold card challenge at the Yes Mam! Monthly Inspiration Meeting in April:

I don't know what this fold is called but it shows off both sides of this print from the Birthday Bouquet Designer Paper (retiring) beautifully!

For the belly band Becky used the Birthday Blooms stamp set, which is carrying over to the new catalog, adding Blushing Bride blooms punched with one of the Itty Bitty Accents punches (retiring). She embellished with pearls, Mint Macaron It's My Party Enamel Dots (retiring), and a bit of Mint Macaron 1" Dotted Lace Trim (retiring).

Even without the belly-band, the fold is designed be self-holding. Ingenious!

Opened, there's room for the stamped greeting from Birthday Blooms and plenty more for a personal message and signature.

This card was a close 2nd to the winning entry I showed you a few days ago by Joanne Cantrell!

Here's the supply list to order the retiring supplies (and anything else you need) in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
