Stampin’ Up! My Hero for My Brother!

Stampin’ Up! My Hero for My Brother!

Hey there! My big brother, Don, turned 76. He was an 18 year-old high school senior the day I arrived. He went to football practice and told the guys he had a new baby sister. They didn't believe him!

My mom was sick a lot, passing away when I was almost 11. My brother and his wife took care of me, sometimes several weeks at a time, during my mom's final battle with lung/brain cancer. He helped me continue in school, giving me support when I was lonely. My big brother is truly my hero.

I CASED a  birthday card by Julie Pitta, changing and adding a few things of my own:

Stampin_up_my_hero_carolpaynestamps1

I used the My Hero Ronald McDonald House Charities set, which is retiring, and Best Badge Punch.

I punched a Crumb Cake Best Badge, cutting in half before adhering. I stamped a Dapper Denim "#1" on Crumb Cake, punched with the 1/2" Circle, and adhering with a dimensional. I added snippets of  5/8" Burlap Ribbon and coming-soon-in-the-new-catalog 1/4" Copper Trim!

Using the Timeless Textures cross-hatch image, I stamped-off Sahara Sand on both Real Red and Dapper Denim strips, then stamped CELEBRATE with Real Red on the Real Red strip and Dapper Denim on the Dapper Denim strip.

Inside I stamped Stylized Birthday with Dapper Denim and more stamped-off CELEBRATE's.

I love strawberries! It's too bad I'm allergic, but that doesn't stop me from stamping them! This card is also stamped with the Fresh Fruit set. Check out the full blog post HERE.

Stampin’ Up! Basket Bunch Punch Art!

Stampin’ Up! Basket Bunch Punch Art!

Hey there! Today I have another punch art chocolate bunny for you!

I used Succulent Garden Designer Paper with Mint Macaron and Sweet Sugarplum, adding Chocolate Chip for the bunny!

Stampin_up_my_hero_carolpaynestamps1

I used the Fox Builder, Festive Flower Builder, and Blossom Builder to create the punch art bunny, punching his sparkly tail from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper.

Stampin_up_my_hero_carolpaynestamps2

The greeting is from the My Hero Ronald McDonald set, cut with a Layering Ovals Framelit. I added a bit of Mint Macaron grass cut with a Basket Bunch Framelit.

Stampin_up_my_hero_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I used a sentiment and a flower image from Cottage Greetings.

Stampin’ Up! My Hero!

Stampin’ Up! My Hero!

Hey there! I have a short post this morning, but I will have another at 4 p.m. today when the Mediterranean Achiever's Blog Hop starts hopping! Our theme this month is the Limited Edition set, Thoughtful Branches!

Right now I have a super easy card created for a hostess who asked for cards without the Big Shot. Most of my cards use something Big Shot – an embossing folder, or a greeting cut with a framelit – but I went "old school"to make card with the My Hero Ronald McDonald House set:

Stampin_up_my_hero_carolpaynestamps1

My Hero is a collection of cute stamps for several holidays of the year, and Stampin' Up! will donate $3 from each one sold to the Ronald McDonald House Charities! I used Dapper Denim, Whisper White, and Silver Glimmer paper for sparkle. The Dapper Denim striped paper from the 2016-2018 In Color Designer Paper Stack coordinates perfectly.

I punched the "You Are My #1 HERO" with the Best Badge Punch.

My camera is an older point-and-shoot, and I think I've about worn it out. This is the only picture I have of this card!

Please do come back this afternoon or tomorrow and take the hop!

Until then, use this supply list to shop in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
