Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day The Newborn King and a Park Lane Purse for Alisa!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day The Newborn King and a Park Lane Purse for Alisa!

Hey there! It's Sunday! Today our family is celebrating Alisa's birthday! yay!

Today's cards are made with The Newborn King set in the Holiday Catalog.

First, Phyllis Shepherd used Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Embossing Powder for her main image. She tied a bit of Linen Thread around a fold of Cherry Cobbler Sheer Linen Ribbon to dangle an All is Calm Snowflake Embellishment.

Next, Glenda Travelstead used the Spotlighting technique for the manger scene she beautifully colored and shaded. The punched circle of Champagne Glimmer paper is the perfect finishing touch!

Finally, Genevieve Ko used Back to Black Designer and Silver Glimmer Paper to highlight the Manger scene for a timeless-yet-contemporary look:

This year I have been trying to make a special one-of-a-kind card for each of my children and grandbabies for their birthday. Alisa loves to design and sew fabric purses, so here's my attempt to create a purse for her with my favorite crafting medium:

Stampin_up_park_lane_for_alisa_1

After I punched the Park Lane Designer Paper with the Postage Stamp Punch, I adhered them to my Blackberry Bliss base, then embossing with the Honeycomb folder. I colored the Very Vintage Designer Button with my Rich Razzleberry Blendability marker, then tied a bit of Gold 1/8" Ribbon through the holes before adhering with a glue dot.

Greeting and sentiment are easy-peasy with phrases from Petite Pairs!

Stampin’ Up! Backyard Basics Butterfly Flower Card!

Stampin’ Up! Backyard Basics Butterfly Flower Card!

Hey there! It's a rainy, dreary day here, so I decided to share my bright and happy Backyard Basics Butterfly flower card with you today:

Stampin_up_backyard_basics_1 - Copy

I think this card would brighten up just about any day!

I used the "faux silk" technique on the butterfly again, just like I did on my previous Backyard Basics card HERE. I used Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango Stampin' Write markers on my stamp before stamping on my tissue paper, then covered my scrap of Whisper White cardstock completely with an Anywhere Glue Stick. After crumpling and re-opening the stamped tissue, I gently smoothed it over the glue, leaving a few creases and bumps to help give it that "slubbed silk" look. (Kimberly's wedding dress was slubbed sik, so I know what that is supposed to look like!) I perfectly "cut" the butterfly with the coordinating Backyard Basics Framelit.

I cut the Daffodil Delight card base and the Tangerine Tango layer with Floral Frames Framelits, then embossed them with the Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions Folder.

A phrase from Petite Pairs, punched with the Word Window and bracketed with a couple of Brights Candy Dots invite you to open this card:

Stampin_up_backyard_basics_2 - Copy

Inside I repeated the layer shape, this time with Whisper White, stamping the coordinating phrase from Petite Pairs and a couple more butterflies!

I finished my ensemble by stamping another butterfly on my Whisper White envelope and lining it with a bit of Daffodil Delight Designer Paper cut with one of the Envelope Liner Framelits.

That's all for now, but tomorrow is the 15th, so be sure to come back to take the Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop! Our group's theme is "Congratualtions!", so be ready to be WOW'd with some great ideas!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Simple Stems Reverse Easel!

Stampin’Up! Simple Stems Reverse Easel!

Hey there! I have a fun new card fold for you today! I saw a card on Splitcoast that inspired me to use my Envelope Punch Board to create my own version. I call mine a "Reverse Easel":

Stampin_up_simple_stems_1 - Copy

I used the stamp sets Simple Stems and Petite Pairs with Basic Black, Coastal Cabana, Pool Party, Very Vanilla, and Modern Medley Designer Paper.

Stampin_up_simple_stems_2 - Copy

In this picture you can see one of the things that helps make my "reverse easel" card work, the tab I created with the Envelope Punch Board!

Stampin_up_simple_stems_4 - Copy

 Up close you can see I stamped my favorite bloom from the Simple Stems set first directly on the Very Vanilla oval, then stamped it again on a Very Vanilla scrap and cut it out with my Paper Snips. I sponged the edges with Coastal Cabana ink before mounting it over the first stamped image with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I love the tiny pearls I added to the center of the flower, and the paper-piercing I did with my Paper-Piercing Tool, Occasions Paper-Piercing Pack, and Stampin' Pierce Mat gives it the perfect finishing touch!

I have another reverse-easel card to show you, so be sure to come back tomorrow. I will also have a mini-tutorial of how to create a reverese-easel ready for you. Right now the pictures are still in the camera and it's getting too late to download and edit them tonight!

Here's your shopping list of supplies to make this card. Clicking on any of the products will take you to that product in my online store.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Another Scalloped Tag Topper Punch Card!

Stampin’Up! Another Scalloped Tag Topper Punch Card!

Hey there. Had a busy day today, but most of it was non-stamping related, so I will just cut right to it and show you my card:

Stampin_up_hardwood_chevron_lattice_1

Another Scalloped Tag Topper card closure, this time using the Hardwood Background stamp and a greeting from Petite Pairs, punched with the Ticket Duo Punch! You can see the lattice much better on this card than the one yesterday because I used one of the flower punches from the Itty Bitty Shapes punch pack!

Stamin_up_hardwooe_chevron_lattice_2

Inside I recycled the Crumb Cake ink on the Hardwood stamp by breathing on it to remoisten the ink and then lightly pressing the Very Vanilla layer on it to just get a faint image. Stamped inside is the companion phrase from Petite Pairs.

I am really lovin' coordinating my envelopes with the Envelope Liner Framelit Dies! It just give it all such an elegant look!

Stampin’Up! Baby We’ve Grown Goes Retro!

Stampin’Up! Baby We’ve Grown Goes Retro!

Hey there. Things are starting to thaw out around here, but I'm still sticking pretty close to home!

Today I have the final card in my "Baby We've Grown" series. This time I used the little owl family stamp, Retro Fresh Designer Paper, Label Collection Framelits, and the Painter's Tape Technique:

Stampin_up_baby_weve_grown_retro_1

I used the fun-fold technique for my card base. You can download the directions for the fun-fold by going to this post HERE.

This card fold always needs a slightly-larger than normal envelope, so I made my own with my Envelope Punch Board.

Stampin_up_baby_weve_grown_retro_2 - Copy

I took the colors for the Painter's Tape Technique from the Retro Fresh Designer Paper: Baked Brown Sugar, Tangerine Tango, and Coastal Cabana. I masked off the "baby we've grown" words below the owls with another piece of painter's tape, inked up the owls, then removed the tape before stamping them without the words. The "welcome baby" words are from Petite Pairs.

I added Tempting Turquoise and  Tangerine Tango Candy Dots to pull a bit more of the colors into the greeting. Candy Dots area MUST HAVE for your cards! They come in all four color families and there are 10 of each of the 10 colors in each family. At $5.95 for 100 total, they are a great value and add so much to a card!

Stampin_up_baby_weve_grown_retro_3 - Copy

On the backside I inked up just the baby owl and used the corresponding sentiment from Petite Pairs.

This is the last card in my "Baby, We've Grown" triad. I will be back tomorrow with the first of two lattice cards made with the Chevron Border Punch, so please stop by!

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_1

Isn't it just the cutest thing?

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_2

I used Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper from the Sale-a-bration brochure, Secret Garden stamps and framelits, window sheets, the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch, Neutrals and Subtles Candy Dots, Petite Petals  and Peite Pairs stamps and Petite Petals punch!

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_3
