Stampin’ Up! Bluey for Fiona!

Stampin’ Up! Bluey for Fiona!

Hey there! Today's card could be classified as "punch art", except I didn't use any punches! I created a special "Bluey" card for my 2 year-old granddaughter, Fiona, who loves to watch the Australian hit cartoon show, "Bluey". If you aren't familiar with it then you probably don't have any littles in your family right now, but once you see it you will be hooked! It's a skillfully crafted show for young and old alike! I love to watch the love and nonsense, as well as life lessons, this show presents!

Instead of punches I used a set of dies from the January/June Mini Catalog called Beautiful Shapes!

With the addition of the ears this card will not fit in our regular medium envelopes, but if you shortened the base of the card to take the length of the ears into account you could make it fit.

Basically, I used the shapes of the dies to create the parts of the Bluey face. I had to do a little bit of snipping to create the nose and mouth, but that is all. I used a White Stampin' Chalk Marker to add the light to her eyes. I cut the letters for Fiona's name from Night of Navy card stock using Playful Alphabet dies. I added Adhesive Sheet to the back of the card stock before cutting so it would be easy to adhere to the card.

Inside I used a sentiment from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set with Night of Navy ink, then added hearts from the From All of Us stamp set ( I will show you the cards I made with that set tomorrow!) using Daffodil Delight ink.

I had fun making this "punch art" (actually "die art") for Fiona! I've been told she has been carrying it around the house this week kissing it and saying "blue"!

Stampin’ Up! Give It A Whirl Mario!

Stampin’ Up! Give It A Whirl Mario!

Hey there! Yesterday was our family's "August Birthdays" celebration, so I can finally show you the card I made for Liam's 9th birthday:

Stampin_up_hats_off_to_mario_carolpaynestamps2

I combined the Give It A Whirl Dies, Hat's Off Bundle, Playful Alphabet, and Tasteful Textiles 3D embossing folder to create this special birthday card. Liam is crazy about everything Mario, so I tried to give this card a "Marion look", right down to the yellow buttons on his jumpsuit!

Stampin_up_hats_off_to_mario_carolpaynestamps3

My grandkids are always excited to receive one of my cards, this one did not disappoint!

Stampin_up_hats_off_to_mario_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I used a phrase from the Happiest Birthday stamp set.

Stampin_up_hats_off_to_mario_carolpaynestamps6

I had fun making this one! I even inked the inside of the Tasteful Textiles 3D embossing folder with Pacific Point ink before I inserted the Pacific Point card stock.  I embossed after I had cut the layer with the Give It A Whirl dies.

Stampin’ Up! Gnome For The Holidays Banner!

Stampin’ Up! Gnome For The Holidays Banner!

Hey there! Over the long Thanksgiving weekend I helped my daughter create 9 banners for her co-worker gifts. We used the trendy Gnome for the Holidays!

Stampin_up_gnome_for_the_holidays_banner_carolpaynestamps1

It's hard to see how cute this banner really is. My little point-and-shoot isn't up to this task!

I used Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White for my color scheme, which was the perfect background for the snowflakes, letters, and gnomes! I spelled out "M E R R Y"  using a retired set of Stampin' Up! dies I will never get rid of, then used the Playful Alphabet to add "CHRISTMAS". In between each of the "M E R R Y" letters I added a banner with just snowflakes and the small Playful Alphabet letters to spell "CHRISTMAS".  All of the banners are stapled over the twine so they can be slid back and forth to get the spacing correct depending on where you hang it.

Stampin_up_gnome_for_the_holidays_banner_carolpaynestamps2

 I added adhesive with Adhesive Sheets before cutting out the snowflakes. This made assembly MUCH EASIER than trying to use liquid glue!

Stampin_up_gnome_for_the_holidays_banner_carolpaynestamps3

The gnomes (we made one banner with the Way To Goat stamp set but I forgot to take a picture before she took it away) were stamped with Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Stampin' Blends. I colored around each gnome with a Light Seaside Spray Stampin' Blend so I could easily cut around them.

Stampin’ Up! Buffalo Check Banner for Ivory!

Stampin’ Up! Buffalo Check Banner for Ivory!

Hey there! Today I'm sharing the banner I created for Ivory's birthday party decorations. I failed to take a picture of it hanging at the party, but I have some good close-ups of some of the pennants, so you will just have to use your imagination for the rest!

I used the same color combo of Purple Posy, Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, and Whisper White that I used for her birthday card I shared with you yesterday. Each pennant is 6 1/8" wide at the top  I made my own pattern and then traced it cross-wise onto the Gorgeous Grape card stock. After cutting along the lines with my paper trimmer, I found I could get two pennants from an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of card stock. I used my stapler to adhere the fold over the Baker's Twine I used to pull the pennant together and for hanging.

Stampin_up_buffalo_check_birthday_banner_carolpaynestamps8

I stamped Whisper White with the Buffalo Check background and Highland Heather ink, then cut with one of the Celebration Labels Dies from the Holiday Catalog. I used the Playful Alphabet for her name and both Daisy Punches for the flowers.  I wanted to distract from the staples along the top of each pennant, so I cut Whisper White strips with one of the Ornate Borders dies and added with liquid glue!

Stampin_up_buffalo_check_birthday_banner_carolpaynestamps1

Each daisy has a Buffalo Check heart punched from the leftovers of the Celebration Labels using the Dog Builder Punch!

Stampin_up_buffalo_check_birthday_banner_carolpaynestamps7

I do wish I had taken a picture of it all hanging together, but it's hard to photograph something that long very well! I hope you have enjoyed the close-ups of the pennants! lol!

Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays for Ivory!

Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays for Ivory!

Hey there! Today I'm sharing the special birthday card I created for my granddaughter Ivory's 4th birthday. I created a tri-fold,  starting with a Purple Posy card base front and back, adding a layer of Gorgeous Grape before finishing with a Whisper White layer stamped with Buffalo Check and Highland Heather ink. I cut "HAPPY" with one of the Happy Dies, then cut the letters free with my Paper Snips. I added them to the card front with liquid glue, then layered punched medium daisies in Gorgeous Grape and Purple Posy. I punched the heart centers with the Dog Builder Punch and then added a Rhinestone to the centers for some bling.

Stampin_up_playful_alphabet_carolpaynestamps1

I adhered three folded pieces of Whisper white to create the tri-fold, then stamped hearts from the Happiest of Birthdays set in Highland Heather and more punched daisies.

Stampin_up_playful_alphabet_carolpaynestamps3

This card was a riot of daisies and hearts, perfect for 4 year-old Ivory! She kept saying, "Pretty, pretty!" as she was opening it! I stamped "Make Today Ridiculously Awesome" from the Ridiculously Awesome set to go along with the "HAPPIER" I cut with the Playful Alphabet Dies.

Stampin_up_playful_alphabet_carolpaynestamps4

I finished with the same sentiment from Happiest of Birthdays I had used on her momma's card that I showed you yesterday!
