Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop May Edition, Color Challenge!

Posted on May 14, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's time for the hop!

Our May theme is a color challenge!

Flirty Flamingo

Marina Mist

Old Olive

Flirty Flamingo is a retiring In Color, BUT it's not really retiring, it's returning as a member of the BRIGHTS collection in the NEW Annual Catalog!

Marina Mist IS RETIRING. Order your card stock and ink NOW before it sells out!

Old Olive is NOT retiring, BUT it is flipping from the BRIGHTS over to the REGALS collection in the New Annual Catalog!

I used the soon-coming Rooted In Nature greeting. I love embossing Sahara Sand with the Pinewood Planks Dyamic Textured Impressions folder. It looks kind of like "shiplap"!

I punched Old Olive with the Leaf Punch, cut a scalloped oval with a Layering Oval Framelit to put behind the Stitched Shapes framelit-cut greeting. I also added a strip of Old Olive punched with the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch.

I added pops of Flirty Flamingo cut with Seasonal Layers Thinlets.

I stamped "HAPPY" with a sentiment from Sunshine Sayings, then stamped "Mother's Day!" with Make a Difference; part of the May Share What You Love Bundles Sneak Peek you can only order this month!

Stampin’ Up! Love What You Do and Make a Difference!

Posted on May 10, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! The Make a Difference stamp set is pat of the "A Little More, Please" Bundle and the "Gotta Have It All" Bundle from the Share What You Love Suite promotion this month. Make a Difference is an alphabet set, but the thing that sets it apart from all other alphabet sets in the catalog is that you can stamp each letter so it looks like handwriting! This is SO COOL!

First, here's the card front. I used Tranquil Tide, Basic Black, Whisper White, and Share What You Love Specialty, that beautiful pearlized designer paper!

The white circle is punched with the 2 1/4" Circle Punch, then layered on a scalloped circle cut with a Layering Circle Framelit. Leaves are stamped with Mint Macaron, and Basic Black Baker's Twine and a rhinestone colored with a black Sharpie finish it off.

I stamped "Happy Birthday" with the Make a Difference stamp set! Love What You Do doesn't have a "happy birthday", so I made my own with Make a Difference. This set contains upper and lower case letters, script and type, and even includes the exclamation point!
