Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Posted on May 31, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Sunday again, the last Sunday of the current Annual and Occasions Catalogs. The final day to order from either catalog is Tuesday, June 2nd, but it's a really cool day because you can also start ordering from the new catalog on that day too! It's a one-day trifecta for ordering!

But it IS Sunday Swap Day today, and so here are today's swaps!

First, Katy Simecka created this unique get well card using Something Borrowed Designer Paper, Crazy about You and Sassy Salutations stamp sets:

This is definitely special!
Next, Ruth Bingle also used Crazy about You with the Hearts Collection framelits (retiring and sold out) to create her fun fold card:

Crazy about You, which will still be available in the new Annual Catalog, has 30, yes, I said THIRTY words as well as three images. This allows you to create an almost infinite number of phrases! The Something Borrowed Embellishment she used in the cente of her flower are also going away after June 2nd, so get some now before they are gone!

Cathy Stephenson used the Painted Blooms desginer paper and the Painted Petals stamp set for her sid-stair-step card. Both of these products are retiring on June 2nd!

Finally,Cathy Morgan used Petal Potpourri, Crazy About You (the leaves), and Bloom with Hope Hostess set for her 4-panel screen card:

Stampin’ Up! Vintage Petal Potpourri!

Posted on April 2, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! How's your week going? I've had a pretty good one so far, I've accomplished quite a bit on my "to do" list and hope to check some more things off today!

One of the things on my list is prep for my Birthday Card Buffet later this month. Today's card using the Petal Potpourri and Lovely Amazing You stamp sets has a soft, vintage look, even though it doesn't have ANY sponging on it!

I KNOW I can't believe no sponging either! I thought it was a RULE that in order for it to look vintage it had to have at least SOME sponging, but here we have it. It's vintage-y, sponging or no sponging!

Here's a trick to remember when you are combining stamping and dry embossing with a folder and the Big Shot: ALWAYS STAMP BEFORE YOU EMBOSS. Trying to stamp on the bumpy surface of embossed card stock is a nightmare. While there aren't very many RULES in stamping, I can give you three right off the top of my head:

1. ALWAYS STAMP FIRST, THEN PUNCH AND/OR CUT WITH A BIG SHOT FRAMELIT.

2. ALWAYS STAMP FIRST before you adhere to the card. There are TWO sides to every piece of card stock. Stampin' Up! high-quality inks do not bleed through our high-quality card stock, so you ALWAYS HAVE TWO SIDES TO STAMP ON.

3. ALWAYS STAMP FIRST, THEN EMBOSS with a Textured Impressions Folder.

Here's the greeting from this card inside the Lovely Lace Textured Impressions Folder:

Inside I combined the "you are amazingly Amazing" phrase from Painted Petals with "happy birthday" from And Many More. I don't think I ever realized how pretty Sahara Sand ink actually is until I started using it for this card. I'm usually more of a bold color girl, especially for stamping words, but I find I love Sahara Sand!

That 's about it for now. I am listing the supplies for this card below so you can refer to it when you shop in my Online Store:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

I also needed to let you know I am continuing to send my Thank-You Project Packets to every one placing an online order of ANY amount in my online store. This program will continue as long as I have online customer!

Stampin’ Up! Petal Potpourri!

Posted on March 26, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I played around today with a new (to me) layout, and used the Petal Potpourri Bundle to create this:

This card is very different from what I had in mind when I started, but I really like how it turned out!

I started with a Naturals White card base, layered with Blackberry Bliss. I added sections of Wisteria Wonder and Perfect Plum stamped with Blackberry Bliss and one of the Petal Potpourri blooms. After heat embossing another bloom with white powder on the vellum layers I attached them to the Wisteria Wonder sections with glue dots.

A wrap of Whisper White 5/8" Organza Ribbon anchors the Wisteria Wonder and Vellum-white embossed blooms, punched with the Flower Medallion Punch. The Petal Potpourri set and the Flower Medallion Punch are bundled to save 15% when you buy them together. I finished the bloom with a Something Borrowed Embellishment, also from the Occasions Catalog.

A greeting from Four You, stamped and cut out with the banner die from the Gift Card Envelope & Trims Thinlets lets the card front "speak".

Inside I continued with Blackberry Bliss-inked blooms and a sentiment from the tried-and-true, Remembering Your Birthday.

I really like the possibilities with this layout and hope to do more with it in the near future. This card is going to be a selection at my next Birthday Card Buffet on April 10 & 11!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Spring Forward Day!

Posted on March 8, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there. It's Sunday Swap Day AND the first morning we have sprung our clocks forward. I am NOT a Spring Forward fan, so I decided to feature some really bright and spring-y cards today to help cheer me up! All of these cards are from an online sharing group I am a part of. We share our ideas with each other but don't claim our rights as creator on purpose so each of us can use them however we want.

A supply list will be posted after each card. Click on any of the images and you will be able to shop in my online store: http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/carolpayne/

First, a really bright and cheerful card using two of the cards from the This Day Project Life Mini Card Collection as the background layer and the image stamping layer.

Note: Time is running out to choose the This Day PL Mini Cards as your free item with a $50 order! The items in the SAB catalog and flyer ALL retired after March 31!

130698 $15.95	133322 $12.95	137363 $24.95	138636 $0.00	119247 $4.95
122923 $6.95	126986 $5.95	131199 $6.95	104332 $6.95	103683 $4.95
110755 $3.95

Next, this card is a CASE of a card on page 27 of the Occasions Catalog using the Butteflies Thinlits Dies:

137360 $24.95	133698 $10.95	100730 $8.50	121045 $6.95	131199 $6.95
119246 $4.95	131056 $26.95	131059 $18.95	129267 $14.95

This gorgeous card was created with the Sale-a-bration stamp set, A Happy Thing. The lemon is colored with markers, and then stamped again on the new Chalkboard Paper with the new Yellow Citrus ColorBox Chalk ink pad from the Occasions Catalog.
The background layer is also a SAB item, Best Year Ever Designer Series Paper.

139134 $0.00	139131 $0.00	138093 $5.95	132187 $7.95	100702 $6.95

134273 $36.95	119261 $5.95	137786 $7.95	119677 $3.50	100079 $3.50

Finally for today, Petal Potpourri stamped in Real Red and accented with Daffodil Delight makes a very bright & cheery card. A sentiment from my go-to SAB set, Simply Wonderful, boldly proclaims this card is for a great friend!
