I love how you can really feature the card front with the easel-fold!

I stamped one of the stockings from Tidings & Trimmings with Cherry Cobbler ink, then cut with a Christmas Tidings die. The trims peeking out of the stocking top are also cut with Christmas Tidings dies.

I made sure I stamped the greeting before embossing the Very Vanilla layer with one of the Wintry 3D embossing folders.

I stamped and cut a Tidings & Trimmings star with a Christmas Trimmings die, then adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals to create the "stop" for the easel.

Stampin’ Up! Christmas In July Week!

Stampin’ Up! Christmas In July Week!

Hey there! I traditionally hold a Christmas in July class at my house, but this year circumstances are not letting it happen, so I decided to do the next best thing, hold a Christmas In July Week here on my blog!

Today's card is the first one I created with the Tidings and Trimmings bundle from the Annual Catalog!

Stampin_up_tidings_&_trimmings_carolpaynestamps1

I used Crumb Cake as my neutral instead of the usual Basic White or Very Vanilla, stamping directly on it with Evening Evergreen, then cutting with a Hippo & Friends die. I cut a larger mat layer from Cherry Cobbler with another Hippo & Friends die. The holly & star embellishments are cut with Christmas Trimmings dies.

Stampin_up_tidings_&_trimmings_carolpaynestamps3

I embossed the Soft Succulent layer with one of the Wintry 3D embossing folders that is sized to fit in the Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. I chose my card stock colors to coordinate with the colors in the Tidings of Christmas 6" x 6" Designer Paper I used on the card front.

Stampin_up_tidings_&_trimmings_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I stamped again on Crumb Cake with a Tidings & Trimmings sentiment using Evening Evergreen ink.

Stampin_up_tidings_&_trimmings_carolpaynestamps5

I had fun creating my first Christmas card of 2021! I will be back tomorrow with another Tidings & Trimmings creation!

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers!

Stampin’ Up! Celebrate Sunflowers!

Hey there! Today I have a card created with the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set  and the Stitched Greenery die that I'm crazy about! I needed another sympathy-type card, but I wanted it to be cheerful too, so I used Daffodil Delight card stock and In Good Taste Designer paper with the aforementioned Celebrate Sunflowers to create this:
Stampin_up_celebrate_sunflowers_carolpaynestajmps1
I started by cutting the sunflower and butterfly from the Daffodil Delight card stock layer, then embossing the  layer minus the sunflower and butterfly with the Stitched Greenery die. I then adhered the layer over a piece of In Good Taste Designer, then added the sunflower and butterfly back in their original spots with tiny dots of liquid glue.

Stampin_up_celebrate_sunflowers_carolpaynestajmps2

I forgot to stamp the greeting before embossing with the Stitched Greenery die, but stamping on this layer worked out fine anyway!

Stampin_up_celebrate_sunflowers_carolpaynestajmps3

I'm kind of obsessed with the Bumblebee Trinkets! They are the perfect finishing touch for this card!

Stampin_up_celebrate_sunflowers_carolpaynestajmps4

I stamped the sunflower on the inside layer and on the envelope. I added the "Hugs Prayers Love" sentiment from Positive Thoughts with Early Espresso ink.
