Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day July 16!

Posted on July 16, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's collection of cards for Sunday Swap day are all in the browns/coffee/marbled category. In other words, pretty yummy!

First, Karen Kurz created a flip flap card with the Coffee Break Suite from pages 30 & 31 of the new Annual Catalog. Coffee Cafe stamps, Coffee Cups Framelits, and Coffee Break Designer Series Paper are just made for each other!

She used Silver Foil sheets to cut the stars and a sentiment from Big on Birthdays.

Next, Amy Combs created a fun tag with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch to create her Coffee Cafe card!

Kristi Sova used the Inlaid Embossing Technique with Garden Green and Early Espresso-punched circles and the new Garden Trellis folder to create a happy background for her coffee cup!

Finally, Jan Rodrian combined Glossy cardstock with the Marbled Background, sponging with Pear Pizazz, So Saffron, and Flirty Flamingo to create a pleasing background for the greeting from Just Add Text.

She used another sentiment from Just Add Text and another strip of glossy stamped with the Marbled Background

Stampin’ Up! A Flock of Fabulous Flamingos!

Posted on July 5, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! After the long July 4th weekend I'm working hard to get back on a working summer schedule!

I played with Fabulous Flamingo stamps, using Glossy card stock (yes, it's back!) and the new Marbled Background to create a flock of cards!

Everything is stamped on glossy with different color backgrounds. The flamingo is a three-step set of stamps. I stamped the body and legs with Powder Pink, the solid body with stamped-off Flirty Flamingo, and body detail with full-strength Flirty Flamingo.

Tempting Turquoise for this card base and the Marbled background. Lemon Lime Twist-stamped leaves. I used Flirty Flamingo card stock for the layers on all for continuity, and it made it easier to quickly put together 7 cards!

This one has a Soft Sky card base with the Marbled stamped with Soft Sky. Leaves are Pear Pizzazz.

TIP: I experimented with Basic Black Archival and Memento Black ink to see which worked best on Glossy . The Memento ink didn't want to dry at all. It takes awhile for the Basic Black Archival to completely dry, but it started out drier and was less smudge-y. Be careful stamping with any ink on glossy; it's easy to slide your stamp on the slick surface, but oh I LOVE the brilliance of the colors!

While the blue Marbled backgrounds remind me of swirling water, this Pear Pizzazz Marbled makes me think of lush foliage!

The first color I tried was Pool Party. It think it's still my favorite!

After stamping all three layers of the flamingo, the only thing I added was a dot for his eye with my black Journaling Pen.

Every flamingo needs a bit of bling, so I added three little rhinestones in the bottom corner. Perfect!
