Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Happy Easter!

Posted on April 5, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Happy Easter morning! I'm so thankful my Savior didn't stay in the tomb. His resurrection makes my hope of heaven a reality!

The theme for the March swap was to use a background stamp in your creation. Barbara Nagle used the Something Lacy background stamp with the Painted Petals set and the Butterflies Thinlets Dies (which are scheduled to be available to order again around April 8th)

Here's the supply list for Something Lacy:

138900 $13.95	137155 $17.95	138822 $24.95	138819 $32.95	137146 $23.95
137360 $24.95	129399 $2.95	119246 $4.95	100730 $8.50	133675 $6.95
131173 $5.95	131180 $5.95	135346 $7.95	104332 $6.95	103683 $4.95

Next, Tamie Ackerson used just a thin strip of Something Lacy to complement the Indescribable Gift bloom for a serene Mother's Day card:

Here's the supply list for Indescribable Gift:

138900 $13.95	137155 $17.95	138575 $15.95	137180 $20.95	127802 $26.95
111351 $6.95	126956 $5.95	102845 $9.95	133654 $14.95	120967 $3.50
133676 $6.95	100730 $8.50	102283 $7.50	109132 $4.95	129053 $29.95
132708 $5.95	129267 $14.95	124262 $2.95	119247 $4.95

I've lost name of the creator of this exquisite Pleasant Poppies card. Some names are attached to the card and some are a slip of paper inside which are easily lost. A blender pen was used wash the Lost Lagoon ink they stamped the image with to give it a soft, subtle color, then stamped a second image so they could cut out the first one to do a bit of the "Spotlighting" technique:

The only image I can't identify the set is the "thank you". I've searched all the catalogs and can't find it anywhere. Oh well, you can use any greeting with this lovely card!

Here's the supply list for Pleasant Poppies:

129499 $13.95	132061 $17.95	133679 $6.95	133644 $5.95	100730 $8.50
133672 $8.95	102845 $9.95	100425 $4.50	133751 $4.95	119855 $15.95
119246 $4.95	101610 $3.50	104332 $6.95	104430 $3.95

Finally,Brenda Hukriede stamped the Positively Chevron Background with Whisper White Craft ink onto Crumb Cake card stock, then punched a window with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch. Butterflies from the Beautiful Wings Embosslit and a greeting from Petite Pairs finishes off this crisp-and-clean creation!

Here's the supply list for the Positively Chevron card:

130496 $17.95	130499 $13.95	122497 $20.95	128706 $28.95	121043 $6.95

Stampin’ Up! Cruise Swaps Part 5!

Posted on June 6, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there. I'm back again with more cruise swaps!

This swap has some retired product, but I wanted to show it to you anyway because I love the layout:

Flower Shop and Petite Petals blossoms were stamped on Vellum with black ink, then punched with the Pansy Punch and Petite Petals Punch. They were colored on the back side of the vellum with a Coastal Cabana Stampin' Write marker. Their attachment to the card with Glue Dots is hidden by the Pearls added to the centers. The greeting is from Million & One.

Next, Blushing Bride cardstock was stamped with the Hardwood Background, then punched with the Triangle punch to create the fencing.

Pleasant Poppies, a greeting from Six-Sided Sampler, and Gold Sequins combine for a harmonious look!

Lastly, the leafy stem from Summer Silhouettes was stamped with Pistachio Pudding before adding the fussy-cut owl and banner from So Very Happy.

The branches were punched with the bird builder punch, "happy birthday!" was highlighted with a White Gel Pen, and a sliver of glitz was added with Silver Foil paper.

That's all for now. Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Pleasant Poppies!

Posted on August 7, 2012 by Carol Payne

Today I am featuring a new background stamp, Pleasant Poppies! For the first time with this new catalog several of our background stamps are available in both clear and wood mount, and this is one of them! My downline, Angela Henson, created this card as one of her swaps for convention. Angela has only been a demonstrator since March 2011, but already has promoted from Associate, to Senior Associate, Supervisor, Senior Supervisor, and now Manager! I am so proud of her! She also used the sentiment from "Field Flowers", Pumpkin Pie cardstock and ink, and the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.

Shannon Bradley stamped the poppies on First Edition Specialty Designer Paper with Cherry Cobbler ink, then complemented it with Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Scallop Dots Ribbon, Cherry Cobbler Regals brads, and a Lots of Tags Sizzlet tag! She also embossed the "get well" phrase from "Perfectly Penned" in Pewter Embossing Powder before punching with the Extra Large Oval Punch.

Shoni Matney stamped the poppies in Summer Starfruit ink before adding all the butterfly layers using the "Beautiful Butterflies" Bigz Die with Summer Starfruit & Midnight Muse cardstocks, Patio Party DSP, and a Windowsheet! She added the "things of you" from "Sweet Essentials".

I LOVE all the new products available in the new catalog, but I love all the new stuff in the Holiday Catalog even MORE! Tomorrow I will have some samples from the new Holiday Catalog set, "Perfectly Preserved"!

Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!
