Stampin’ Up! Owl Ribbon Card and Our Family Easter Celebration!

Posted on April 1, 2013 by Carol Payne

Yesterday was a fun day! Let me share with you a few snapshots of the day:

Maddie Kate, Ava, and Cohen waiting for Jaxon to get a chance to find a few eggs before we let them go at it! (Liam was napping)

Jaxon was a bit confused, "what is this doing out here?"

"Oh, you want me to put it in here?"

Then we let the rest of them loose! Ava and Cohen were in hot competiton for those eggs!

Cohen

Maddie Kate

Sweed & Cody (baby Oakley will be here in July!)

Liam and Cohen managed to acquire pumpknots on their heads at the same time with the same toy! Not an easy thing to accomplish, at 5 years and 8 months! They were fine, just have red bumps!

I have one fun card to show you today. This cute little owl was a swap my downline, Angela, received at the Regional!

The creator, (have no idea who) used current and retired ribbons for the feathers! Cute idea to use up ribbon scraps!

That's all for now! Hope you have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Hey There Friend, Revisited!

Posted on March 26, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning to you! Just a quick post today! I have lots on my plate, including a Stamp Camp at the GrandOArt Studio in West Frankfort tonight!

We are making 5 projects for the $15 fee, so come out and have some inexpensive stamping therapy with us!

The March Paper Pumpkin Kit, which is also the first kit anyone will receive from now on as their first "Welcome Kit", contains the awesome stamp, "hey there friend"! I showed you a card I had CASED from Diana Gibbs a few days ago HERE, and loved this card so much I decided to switch out the focal image stamp and use it again tonight:

Do you likey? I DO! I thought the chair stamp from Cherish Friendship would work nicely in place of the antique tricycle, what do you think? And I love the splotchy-waterdrop-splash stamp, it looks great in Sahara Sand ink!

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

This time I also added the flower from Oh Hello to bring just a bit more color to the inside!

Well, that's all for today! Come back and see me again tomorrow for another Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! St Louis Regional!

Posted on March 24, 2013 by Carol Payne

Wowza! I just had a fantastic day with some of my downline, the Yes, Mam! Stampers, at the St Louis Regional!

From the top left to right: Jamie Cox, me, Angela Henson, Linda Reaney, Janice Felty, Martha Swift. I love spending time with these girls!

Today was a day of fun, inspiration, and learning! We watched some fun and EASY stamping presentations:

Had time to stamp some fun Make n Takes! This was the first time in a long time I was able to finish all of my Make n Takes (this is just one of the three for the day):

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

My Digital Studio presentation:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

"Express Workshops" information and inspiration:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

And an mid-afternoon "Cupcake Break"!

I had the honor of participating in a on-stage panel discussion with Stampin' Up!'s Donna Griffiths, and fellow demo, Jan Burnett:

All in all it was a lovely day of swapping, sharing, learning, stamping, and fun!

Well, it's off to church for me! I am so thankful for my job-it's always a blessing when you get to do what you love every day!

I will share more tomorrow! Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Love “Read My Lips”!

Posted on March 22, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Can I just say, while I am always a little sad when Sale-a-bration is over for the year, if SAB this year went on much longer I'd be worn down to a nub? Seems like everyone decided to cram their final SAB workshop into this week! (pay no attention to the whining, I'm actually having a blast!)

One of my workshop hostesses last night, Rhonda, is a Mary Kay Consultant, so I customized a Fancy Favor Box for her using the "read my lips" stamp from the February 25th Anniversary stamp set, Best of Love!

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

I quite delighted with it, so much so that I need to make another one for myself!

Supplies used: Pink Pirouette & Basic Black cardstock, Fancy Favor Box BigzXL Die with the Big Shot, Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Folder, Paper Daisies, Vintage Faceted Buttons, 1/8" Basic Black Taffeta Ribbon, Basic Black & Melon Mambo ink, Hearts A Flutter Framelits, Stamping Sponges, and Crystal Effects!

An aerial view:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

Here's a close-up of the lips with Crystal Effects on them to make them raised and shiny:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

That's all for now! I have 22 swap fronts waiting for me to finish them before I head to Nashville, IL tonight for my final SAB workshop, then tomorrow morning it's off to St. Louis Stampin' Up! Regional!

Until tomorrow (if I survive), have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Torn Masking and French Foliage!

Posted on March 19, 2013 by Carol Payne

Today's sample is from my February swap stash. This card was made by Sherri Beyrer and reminds me of the card I showed you back in October 2012 here.

Beautiful card, isn't it? And even though I usually think of French Foliage as a fall stamp set, it works perfectly for the "masculine" theme of last month's swap! I especially love the additional leaf she cut out and attached (it's covered in Crystal Effects although you can't tell from this photo) and how she embossed the whole top layer with the Woodgrain Folder after she was finished with the torn masking and stamping.

That's all for today! I'm swamped this week with end-of-Sale-a-bration parties 4 out of the 5 weekdays this week, then I'm off with my downline to the Stampin' Up! St. Louis Regional this Saturday! I need to get some swaps made, so hopefully I will have some new creations to share with you soon! And after Saturday I will have some swap board samples AND fresh swaps to share!

Don't forget! You can go to my website any time, night or day, to order Stampin' Up! products:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

If you order before Friday at midnight you will receive the three tutorials to create fun 3-D items using the Simply Sent Happy Hello Kit FREE from me! This freebie is for everyone who orders from me Online, no matter the size of the order! (but remember, for every $50 you order through Friday you can also choose a free Sale-a-bration item too!)

So until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

I love this fold! I just couldn't resist making another one!

I did the inside a little different, with a birthday wish card stamped with Petite Pairs to pull out of the gift card pocket:
