Stampin’ Up! Waterfront!

Stampin’ Up! Waterfront!

Hey there! I decided to play with Waterfront set a few days ago!

Stampin_up_waterfront_carolpaynestamps1

The images have a watercolor look, so I stamped on watercolor paper. Stamping ink on watercolor paper without extra moisture is kind of blah, so I lightly spritzed with water before stamping and the look improved!

I inked the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Embossing Folder with Crumb Cake ink before embossing Crumb Cake card stock for the background. I used Marina Mist, Pear Pizzazz, Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry, and Always Artichoke for the scene, and Early Espresso for the greetings.

Stampin_up_waterfront_carolpaynestamps2

I took inspiration from a swap I received from Karen Kurz to cut the easel from Painter's Palette in half to add to the back of the watercolor paper "canvas". I also used the easel fold to complete the easel theme.

Stampin_up_waterfront_carolpaynestamps3

I used the Pretty Label and Every Day Label Punches to create the easel "stop".

Stampin_up_waterfront_carolpaynestamps4

There are 6 sentiments in the Waterfront set. I used 5 of them on this card!

Stampin’ Up! More Happy Birthday To Me!

Stampin’ Up! More Happy Birthday To Me!

Hey there! I received more hand-stamped birthday cards that I wanted to share with you! Not all birthday cards come when you expect them, which is kind of nice. You get to celebrate a little longer!

My sweet friend Rachel Janus sent me this card, which she made in one of my classes with the Painter's Palette stamp set and Playful Palette Designer Paper! I featured this card in my "Painter's Palette Rip & Flip" post. View it HERE.

I consider it an honor that she would send me this card!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_carolpaynestamps1

My good friend, Donna Ninness, created and sent me this card using the beautiful but retired Crisp Cantaloupe and Whisper White!

Stampin_up_everything_eleanor_carolpaynestamps2

I love everything about this card! Although most of the elements are retired, they are still just a gorgeous as when they were current!

Stampin_up_everything_eleanor_carolpaynestamps3

The tiny pearls she put on the bodice complement the Perfect Polka Dots-embossed background. She used tiny accents of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper for the hat band and the sash.

Stampin_up_everything_eleanor_carolpaynestamps4

She cut both ends of the greeting banner with a retired Chalk Talk framelit, and colored the rhinestone in the center of the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer flower with a peach Sharpie marker!

Everyone has made me feel so special! Thank you!

Stampin’ Up! Painter’s Palette Pop of Paradise!

Stampin’ Up! Painter’s Palette Pop of Paradise!

Hey there! I'm home for the summer! Last day babysitting for Liam and Darcy was yesterday! I will miss kissing their little faces everyday, but I will see them every Sunday, and before I get too comfortable hanging (and stamping!) at home it will be August 15 and school will be starting again!

Today I is the  final card in my Pop of Paradise/Easel Fold series. I have a new box of goodies  I ordered last week; those pretty new stamps are calling me to play!

For today's card I combined Painter's Palette with Pop of Paradise, using a masking technique to keep stamping on the easel.

Stampin_up_painters_pop_of_paradise_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

I used my favorite color combo of Basic Black, Whisper White, Melon Mambo and Emerald Envy again, but added in splatters of embossed gold for extra pizazz!

Stampin_up_painters_pop_of_paradise_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

I used the same layering technique for the easel-stop, cutting up punched Basic Black and Melon Mambo Decorative Labels to layer behind the sentiment.

Stampin_up_painters_pop_of_paradise_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

Another simple technique is to stamp a color once and then stamp again and again without re-inking to achieve multiple shades of the same color.

Stampin’ Up! Pop of Pink Paradise!

Stampin’ Up! Pop of Pink Paradise!

Hey there! I'm back again with another Pop of Paradise easel card with the Pop of Pink Specialty Designer Paper! This popular paper went on back order even before the new Catalog went live last week! But don't worry, you can still order it and it will ship out after June 13!

Stampin_up_pop_of_pink_paradise_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

There are lovely PINK! designs in the Pop of Pink Specialty pack, including gold-embossed sheets, but I chose this simple black, white, and Melon Mambo print to let the Melon Mambo-stamped flamingo POP!

Stampin_up_pop_of_pink_paradise_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

I did another Easel fold.  4 1/4" x 11", scored and folded at 5 1/2" and 8 1/4", then a layer 3 5/8" x 4 7/8", followed by layers 3 1/2" x 4 3/4", and 3 1/4" x 4 1/2".

Stampin_up_pop_of_pink_paradise_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

I stamped the Painter's Palette easel directly on the designer paper, then stamped the flamingo, greeting, and leaf on Whisper White. After cutting out with a Layering Squares Framelit, I added it to the center of the easel with SNAIL. Rhinestones and a black-stamped "push-pin" that I hand-cut with my snips and adhered with just a tiny piece of a dimensional finish off the front.

Stampin_up_pop_of_pink_paradise_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy

The Painter's Palette sentiment is punched with the Decorative Label punch and framed with Melon Mambo and Basic Black Decorative Labels that were cut, trimmed, and adhered to the back with SNAIL.

Stampin_up_pop_of_pink_paradise_carolpaynestamps5 - Copy

I just LOVE Melon Mambo, Whisper White, Basic Black, and Emerald Envy together!

Stampin’ Up! Painter’s Palette Rip and Flip!

Stampin’ Up! Painter’s Palette Rip and Flip!

Hey there! I found a great little card created by one of my sister Mediterranean Achiever's blog hoppers, Georgia Giguere, It's a simple technique called "Rip and Flip". To view her technique video and take the the hop, click on her name. This was our Mam's Team Meeting Make & Take Monday night!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_rip_and_flip_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

We used the same print from the Painter's Palette Designer Series Paper Stack for our rip & flip, but this technique will work with just about any designer paper that you love the prints on both sides!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_rip_and_flip_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

A couple of slight differences, not necessarily improvements, but just differences of my card: I used a slightly larger pair of  Layering Squares Framelit dies to cut and frame the greeting, added a few more splashes of color to the greeting, and used a piece of Painter's Palette Designer Washi Tape over the the line where the two layers meet. I love using coordinating products when I can!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_rip_and_flip_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

Inside we stamped more Painter's Palette  with the same inks used on the outside greeting: Archival Basic Black, Sweet Sugarplum, Emerald Envy, and Peekaboo Peach. All of these colors, plus the Painter's Palette stamp set and the Layering Squares Framelits, will be available to order on June 1st, which is only FIVE sleeps away! yay!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_rip_and_flip_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy

Of course, I had to stamp the Very Vanilla envelope, which is the neutral color in the Painter's Palette paper, to match the card!

Stampin’ Up! Masked Painter’s Palette!

Stampin’ Up! Masked Painter’s Palette!

Hey there! We had a lovely Sunday afternoon yesterday! After grilling hamburgers, the family hung out on our front porch and played games while the kiddos played in the yard and  sandbox my husband had built. It's so relaxing to watch little ones wander around in the yard, dabble on the swings, and scoop sand.  A wonderful day!

Today I have another card created with Painter's Palette and Love & Affection stamp sets. It was my "warm up" to the easel blog hop card last week. Click THIS LINK to check it out and take the hop!

I started by stamping the easel from Painter's Palette with Archival Basic Black ink on a 4" x 5 1/4" Whisper White:

Stampin_up_painters_palette_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

Now, just imagine that I stamped the easel again on a Post-it note, cut out the square, then put it over the stamped "canvas" on the easel. (I apparently forgot to take a picture of this step, sorry. Ever get so excited that you get ahead of yourself? That's what happened with this card!)

Stampin_up_painters_palette_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

I stamped the brush strokes with Flirty Flamingo and Peekaboo Peach with the mask over the canvas, then stamped leaves and splatters with Pear Pizzazz.

After removing the mask I stamped Archival basic Black flowers and tiny blooms inside the flowers with Flirty Flamingo or Peekaboo Peach. I filled the canvas with the phrase from Painter's Palette and more little blooms.

This technique really makes the easel on this completely flat card really stand out!

Stampin_up_painters_palette_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

Inside I followed up with another Painter's Palette phrase and more stamping to coordinate with the card front.

Stampin_up_painters_palette_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy

Pretty easy-peasey!

Just 9 more sleeps until June 1st!. Which also means only 8 more sleeps left to order from the Occasions Catalog and the Retiring List!

Check out what's still available (some at a discount) to order in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
