Stampin’ Up! Crystal Effects Pansies!

Stampin’ Up! Crystal Effects Pansies!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Tuesday but it feels like a Monday, doesn't it?

Just a few more days before the new Stampin' Up! catalog kicks in. If you want to receive a new catalog from me but haven't ordered from me before, just contact me by email: carol@carolpaynestamps.com. Include your email and snail mail address. I will send you a Paypal invoice for the Priority Postage ($5.60). You don't have to have a Paypal account to pay from a Paypal invoice) After I receive payment I will put your catalog in the mail and you will have it within 2-3 business days, and I will also include a coupon for $6 off your first order!

While playing with ideas for custom embellishments I created this fun card:

Stampin_up_crystal_effects_pansies_1
Watercolor Wonder Designer Paper, Midnight Muse and Coastal Cabana cardstock all punched with the Pansy and Petite Petals Punches. Gumball Green leaves cut with the Secret Garden framelit (I'm really going to miss that die set, but I received the new Flower Fair Framelits while on the cruise so they will help me feel better! lol!)

The greeting is from Loving Thoughts,(which is retiring and sold out in clear-mount but still available in wood-mount)

After punching the flowers I adhered them to glue dot packaging strips with the glue dots still attached. The flowers would then be ready to attach after the Crystal Effects dried.

I covered each flower with a thin layer (or sometimes not so thin!) of Crystal Effects, then added pearls for my centers. I allowed them to lay flat overnight to dry completely before transferring to my project.

A background with Off the Grid (retired & sold out) and greeting from Delightful Dozen (also retired & sold out).

That's all for now. To order the Watercolor Wonder Designer Paper, Secret Garden Framelits, Loving Thoughts in wood-mount, and Midnight Muse ink before they are  gone on June 1st click HERE to shop in my Online Store or click on any of the images below in the supply list.

Stampin’ Up! Fresh Prints and the Petite Petals Punch!

Stampin’ Up! Fresh Prints and the Petite Petals Punch!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Hope you are staying warm! They say it's going to start snowing again tonight, and snow until sometime tomorrow, with the possibility of 8-10 inches! Not as much as our last big storm in early December, but still a pretty big one for Southern Illinois! After the snow it's supposed to get even colder, with wind chills in the negative digits! I just hope this is all swept away before Linda & I travel over to St Louis to fly to Houston on Wednesday! eek!

I'm sure you didn't come see me to get a weather report, did ya? Nope, you want to see a card, don't you? Well, I've got a nice one for you today:

Stampin_up_fresh_prints_petite_petals_1

One of my hostesses for later this month, Cindy, was here on New Year's day for my class and picked out cards for her Stamp Camp (4 cards). The first three she picked we are doing exactly as they are, but the fourth one she asked me to combine two cards. Here's the two we combined:

First, she loved this layout by Ruth Anne Lilley. Ruth Anne used Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding, and Whisper White with the Petite Petals stamps and Punch:

Stampin_up_petite_petals_2

But, she had already fallen in love with another card using that color combo, so she asked me to use the layout from above with this color combo by Rhonda Bassler: Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Coastal Cabana, and Real Red!

Here's my adaptation again:

Stampin_up_fresh_prints_petite_petals_1

I kept the same layout, rubbing the Decorative Dots (sale-a-bration) raised areas of the Crumb Cake with the Baked Brown Sugar inkpad. The Coastal Cabana cardstock is punched with the Postage Stamp Punch (#122344 $15.95). I punched the Fresh Prints and Real Red paper with the new Petite Petals Punch (#133322 $12.95), then off-set them with a Glue Dot in the middle. I colored the Basic Jewel Rhinestones with a red Sharpie marker before adding them to the flower centers.

I used Coastal Cabana 3/8" Ruffle Stretch Trim (#130024 $8.95), adhered firmly to the card with Sticky Strip. I scalloped the Real Red with the Scallop Edge Border Punch (#119882 $15.95)

In the lower right corner I stamped a greeting from the Simply Sketched Hostess set with Baked Brown Sugar ink.

And the inside:

Stampin_up_fresh_prints_petite_petals_2

The "always thinking of you" is from another favorite hostess set of mine, Express Youself!

That's all for now! I need to do just a bit of clean-up on my tables from last nights' class before the next group of stampers arrive in a few hours!

All of these products are available to order (with the exception of the Decorative Dots folder, which will be available with Sale-a-bration starts on January 28) from my Online Store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Until tomorrow, which is Sunday Swap Day, have a Stampingrox! day!
