Stampin’ Up! Birthday Bouquet Banners!

Posted on March 9, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! My bout with sickness put me waaaaay behind this week, but I've learned to expect the unexpected and just go with what I'm given. I'm working away at it even though I know I can't get everything done or the way I wanted it.

Today I have two cards, both made with Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper and Birthday Blooms stamps:

They are very similar, but up close you can see the subtle differences.

The layout, colors, sentiment, designer paper, and ribbon are the same, but this one is simpler with the Silver 5/8" Satin bow low on the front:

I made the flat card first, heat-embossing the greeting with white powder before deciding it needed a bit of texture. After white-heat embossing the greeting and adding the Banner Triple-punched paper strips with SNAIL, I embossed the Pool Party/designer paper layer with the Decorative Dots folder:

I also raised the ribbon bow near the top . Which one do you like best?

I did the inside similar but different as well. Here's the inside of the flat-front card:

And the textured card inside:

Stampin’ Up! Apple of My Eye Baby Wipe Technique!

Posted on March 5, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! When I was playing with the Apple of My Eye and That Thing You Did stamp sets, I decided to try the baby wipe technique with the citrus stamp:

If you aren't familiar with the baby wipe technique, here's a quick little description:

Fold a baby wipe into an ink pad shape on a non-porous surface, like a disposable plastic plate. (I use an inexpensive baby wipe that doesn't have much of a design embossed on it)
Using an ink pad reinker, put drops of ink directly on the baby wipe. For my card today I started with drops of Daffodil Delight. I spaced the drops apart so as they reacted with the moisture in the baby wipe they would bleed toward each other.
Add drops of other colors in between and around the first ink drops, allowing the colors to bleed into each other. For my card I used Tangerine Tango for my second color.
Use this "custom" inkpad to ink your stamp.

I used my Circles Collection Framelits to cut the citus shapes. I hand-cut the banner ends with my Paper Snips.

Sentiments from That Thing You Did and a Gold Glimmer star punched with an Itty Bitty Accents Punch are the finishing touches!

This card easily fits into a Medium Whisper White envelope!

Here's the supply list for today's card. You can order everything you need from my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.com

Apple Of My Eye Photopolymer Stamp Set [140736] $21.00	That Thing You Did Photopolymer Stamp Set [138730] $17.00	Daffodil Delight 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [119683] $7.00	Daffodil Delight Classic Stampin' Ink Refill [119672] $3.25

Stampin’ Up! Pretty Petals Blooming Teapot!

Posted on March 4, 2016 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Tonight is my #imbringingbirthdaysback Stamp-a-Stack! Before I show you today's project, here's the full set of cards we will be making tonight and tomorrow!

I think it is a good mix of boy, girl, feminine, and birthday-for-anyone! It includes simple stamping, two-step stamping, gradient ombre stamping, and stamping-the-negative-space!

The class fee is $25 to make 10 cards, two each of these five designs, or free with a $40 order. Add just a little more and a $50 order will get you a free item from the Sale-a-bration brochure!

You can get this class-by-mail for the same price! Place a $40 order in my online store by midnight on Sunday, March 6th and I'll mail you the kits and instructions for all five cards! Go to my online store to place your order using this Host Code JGZTEETR www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Now, here's a card I created for the March Online Class using Pretty Petals Designer Paper and new Sale-a-bration set, Party Pants!

I used the colors in the designer paper to guide my choices for all of the elements of this card. It turned out exactly the way I wanted!

I embossed the Very Vanilla background with the Elegant Dots folder, and added a little snippet of a Tea Lace Doily for a vintage look!

Yes, I colored my rhinestones again with a black Sharpie. I'm addicted to this easy technique! Inside the card I used a phrase from Greatest Greetings.

I punched the flower elements with the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack, the Tree Builder Punch, and the Bird Builder Punch.
