Stampin’ Up! Saturday Swap Day!

Stampin’ Up! Saturday Swap Day!

Hey there! Today is a swap day Saturday! yay!

To start off, Jan Rodrian kept her creation clean & simple by cutting her plain card stock leaves with the Leaflet Framelits and embossing the background with the Woodland folder:

Stampin_up_petite_pairs_1

She had a little thanksgiving greeting inside:

Stampin_up_petitie_pairs_2

Next, Judi Anderson covered the "& tasty dishes" phrase from Among the Branches with "my friend" from You're So Sweet, making this stamp more versatile!

Stampin_up_among_the_branches_1

Laura Milligan used Thankful Forest Friends for her clean & simple card:

Stampin_up_thankful_forest_friends_1

Rhonda Bassler used Lighthearted Leaves, stamping on one layer of cardstock and then cutting it apart to add to her card base.

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_3

Finally, Amy Storrie cut the 'window" for the Lighthearted Leaves leaf with the matching framelit, then inserted the white-heat-embossed leaf that she also sponged with colors to match the strip of Into the Woods Designer Paper along the bottom.

Into the Woods 3/8" Ribbon, an Iced Rhinestone, a strip of Rich Razzleberry washi tape from the Happy Haunting Designer Washi Tape, and an Into the Woods Element finish it off nicely:

Stampin’ Up! Lighthearted Leaves for Christmas!

Stampin’ Up! Lighthearted Leaves for Christmas!

Hey there! Ever since I received Lighthearted Leaves I've been wanting to make a Christmas card with the littlest leaf. It looks like an ornament to me!

Take a look and tell me what YOU think:

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_1 - Copy

The "Believe" greeting is in Lighthearted Leaves too!

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_2 - Copy

To give the images more "pop", as soon as I stamped each ornament/leaf and "Believe" I immediately sprinkled with Clear Embossing Powder and heated with my Heat Tool. The firm foam pads deliver more ink to the paper  so you can emboss if you work quickly!

DID YOU KNOW? Stampin' Up! now has a 1 1/2" Circle Punch! I totally missed this for the first FOUR MONTHS of the new catalog! (insert face-palm here) This punch is the perfect size to mount the ornament/leaves on.

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_3 - Copy

Inside I stamped/heat embossed a sentiment from Versatile Christmas and more ornaments. I wanted to bring more interest to the inside so I simply cut 1/4" x 5" strips of the same Home for Christmas paper to add to the top and bottom. Sometimes just a sliver is all it takes to go from o.k. to WOW!

Here's today's supply list. Place your order in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Grand Vacation Achiever’s Blog Hop Remember to Give Thanks!

Stampin’ Up! Grand Vacation Achiever’s Blog Hop Remember to Give Thanks!

GV_Blog_Hop_Banner_04
Hey there and welcome to the Grand Vacation Achievers Blog Hop for September. The theme for the hop this month is Remember to Give Thanks!

You may be starting from here at my blog, Carol Payne Stamps, or may have come here from the previous person to me on the list. Please be sure to click the person after me to move along the blog hop. If you get off track at any time, the full line up below will help you move along from blog to blog.

For my contribution to the hop this month, I decided to use a tried and true technique that works perfectly with the thankful theme, Faux Silk!

Stampin_up_vintage_leaves_faux_silk_1 - Copy

I stamped Vintage Leaves with Hello Honey, Cajun Craze, and Mossy Meadow on plain tissue paper then crumpled it in my hand. After I opened the tissue and partially smoothed it, I covered a Very Vanilla layer with Stampin' Glue Stick and adhered the tissue to it, smoothing the tissue but still leaving a few wrinkles to give it more of a "slubbed silk" look.

Stampin_up_vintage_leaves_faux_silk_3 - Copy

I wrapped the edges of the tissue around to the back side of the vanilla layer and adhered with SNAIL, then sponged the edges with Chocolate Chip ink.

After I stamped the "thankful" greeting with Chocolate Chip and cut banner points with my Paper Snips, I sponged the acorn element with Chocolate Chip before adding with a glue dot. After I smushed the wooden leaves directly onto the ink pad I realized I could use them to "stamp" over the greeting, then adding with glue dots.

Stampin_up_vintage_leaves_faux_silk_2 - Copy - Copy

An Early Espresso 1/2" Seam Binding bow finishes off the front.

Stampin_up_vintage_leaves_faux_silk_4 - Copy

Inside I used a sentiment from Lighthearted Leaves, which coordinates perfectly with today's "Remember to Give Thanks" theme.

To order supplies used today, you can find them all in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Acorny Thank You!

Stampin’ Up! Acorny Thank You!

Hey there! Are you getting ready to have a fun long weekend? I sure am! A little trip to Branson with my hubby! I'm excited! yay!

It's September, so it's definitely time for fall cards. Today I have one I created with the Into the Woods Designer Series Paper and the Acorny Thank You stamp set:
Stampin_up_acorny_thank_you_1 - Copy
I cut panels for the front layer from Into the Woods Designer Series Paper. With it's white background, the images in this paper really pop!

The larger panels measure 1 7/8" x 3 1/8" and the smaller panels are 1 7/8" x 1 7/8'. They are mounted on the 4" x 5 1/4" Rich Razzleberry layer with SNAIL.

I stamped one of the  acorns from Acorny Thank You and punched it out with the coordinating Acorn Builder Punch. This set and punch are bundled in the Holiday catalog to save you 15%. After stamping the greeting from Acorny Thank You with Soft Suede ink, I added a leaf stamped with Lighthearted Leaves and cut with a Leaflets Framelit. I tied them together with a bit of thread pulled from the burlap ribbon, and added an Into the Woods Element for the final touch.

Stampin_up_acorny_thank_you_3 - Copy

Inside I stamped more leaves and acorns. The cute little "grateful for you" sentiment is included in Acorny Thank You.

Stampin’ Up! Lighthearted Leaves Again!

Stampin’ Up! Lighthearted Leaves Again!

Hey there! Just a quick post this morning. I'm at Liam & Darcy's house, babysitting while their mommy & daddy are at school and work. Pretty much all of my weekday mornings from now until the end of the school year will be spent this these adorable little ones. I will , of course, have weekends & school holidays "off", and most days I will be heading home a little after 1 p.m., so there will still be time to stamp! I'm so thankful I get to be their grammie!

Today I am sharing another card I made using the Lighthearted Leaves set for a swap I was in this past month. You can check out my first Lighthearted Leaves card HERE. Today's card I stamped the background layer with more images from the LIghthearted Leaves set using Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, and Delightful Dijon ink.

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_1 - Copy

I used the same "emboss resist" technique to sponge color over the leaf image I cut out with the Leaflets Framelits Dies. Mossy Meadow 5/8" Striped Cotton Ribbon and a bit of thread from 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon complement the rustic fall look.

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_2 - Copy

The greeting is cut with the banner framelit from the Gift Card Envelope & Trims die, and accented with a Cajun Craze Candy Dot.

Stampin_up_lighthearted_leaves_3 - Copy
