Hey there! I have a busy day ahead of me today. I'm driving 40 minutes to the west for a visitation, back home, 30 minutes south for my granddaughter's dance recital, then my sister-in-law is coming to visit for the rest of the weekend!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today is a really busy day. First thing this morning I am helping with the babies in the nursery, then right after church is over we are throwing a bridal shower for a good friend of our family. As soon as we clean up from the shower it will be time for the evening service. Whew! I’m tired already! I am in charge of the shower decorations, and I am really happy with what I came up with to go with the bride’s wedding theme of Teal, Red, Burlap, and Pearls. I hope to have some pics to share with you tomorrow!

But even with all the busyness, it’s still Sunday Swap Day, so here we go!

Today’s swaps have a decidedly masculine feel.

This swap created by pairing The Open Sea with the World Map background is simple but packs a lot of visual interest. Unfortunately, the creators’ name has been separated from the creation.

Stampin_up_open_sea

Second, Mary Waring achieved a stunning rendition of World Map by coloring the  “map” with Crushed Curry and Pear Pizzazz. She used the suitcase from the Traveler set and a phrase from Really Good Greetings.

Stampin_up_world_map

Third, Becky NIchols combined the Hardwood background with the Moon Lake set. I really like how she used the Window Frames Framelits Dies to cut out and mat the bird image, then used one of the Project Life Cards & Labels Framelits to cut out the greeting!

Stampin_up_moon_lake

Finally, Ruth Anne Lilley also used Hardwood and Moon Lake, but used the swish stamp from Work of Art to easily add color to the tree and boat image!

Stampin_up_work_of_art

That’s all for now. I must get ready for this busy day!

Here’s the link to my online store to order your supplies to make your own version of these cards:

Stampin’Up! Blended Bloom Scalloped Tag Topper Screen Card!

Stampin’Up! Blended Bloom Scalloped Tag Topper Screen Card!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've been working on the projects for my Punch & Technique Class this weekend. I received a "Screen Card" in my monthly swap from Kelly Acheson, so I adapted it for the "punch" project in my class:

Stampin_up_blended_bloom_1

I added a scallop at the top of each screen section with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch. It gives it a "victorian wardrobe" look, don't you think?

Here are the sections up close:

Stampin_up_blended_bloom_2

I used the same stamps that Kelly did, but I changed the color palette, partly because I had a full pack of Old Olive 12×12 cardstock on hand, but mostly because I seem to be on a big Blackberry Bliss kick right now!

Stampin_up_blended_bloom_3

Really Good Greeting, Yippee-Skippee, and Label Love, stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, show up nicely on the Blended Bloom background.

Stampin_up_blended_bloom_4

A few touches of rhinestones here and there:

Stampin_up_blended_bloom_5

I added a 5th layer to the back of the 4th screen to have an area for signature.

Stampin_up_blended_bloom_screen

Here's your supply list for your order in my Online Store:

That's all for now! Come back tomorrow to see the technique we will be doing at class this weekend! Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Traveler!

Stampin’ Up! Traveler!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Just a quick post before I fall into bed! This is Liam’s last night here with us. He goes home with his daddy tomorrow. I will be a little bit sad to see him go. Having him here makes me remember how much I enjoyed having my little ones underfoot. Even though they are a ton of work and you have to keep on your toes every second they are awake, they are TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Today’s cards are all created with the Traveler set. Three cards, all with the same set, all by different stampers, all very different:

Stampin_up_traveler_1

First, Loraine Duran used a stencil to sponge clouds for the background before stamping the steam engine from Traveler. When we made this card at my Birthday Card Buffet,  we used the top of a Scalloped Tag Topper Punched piece to sponge our clouds.

Inside we stamped a phrase from  Chalk Talk:

Stampin_up_traveler_2

Beverlee Morales stamped the train image with Lost Lagoon, then used Postage Due for the background, also stamping on half of a Tea Lace Doily. I love the Lost Lagoon 3/8″ Stitched Satin ribbon she accented with a few tiny pearls. The bottom section she scored every 1/8″ with the Simply Scored Scoring Tool.

Stampin_up_traveler_lost_lagoon_1

Finally, Dawn Klein stamped three of the 6 images from Traveler with Early Espresso ink. She easily added detail with Lullaby Designer Paper, the Arrows Textured Impressions Folder, and the Dictionary Background stamp. The greeting is from Really Good Greetings, which she accented with a hand-cut banner, a Basic Metal Button, and a bit of Linen Thread.

Stampin_up_traveler_life_1

That’s all for now. You can always shop by name for the products used in today’s cards. Just enter the name in the search box in my Online Store.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetie Pies & Flower Shop!

Stampin’ Up! Sweetie Pies & Flower Shop!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Busy day today around here! LIam is here for awhile until his daddy picks him up after he is done at school today, so things are really hopping! I'm working diligently on my packing and prepping everything I need for the Stampin' Up! Western Caribbean Cruise. We leave for Ft Lauderdale Friday afternoon. Yikes!

I love the card I have to share with you today, but I'm also a bit sad because the photopolymer set I used for the focal point, Sweetie Pies, is out-of-stock already! ugh! The new Annual Catalog has new photopolymer sets in it that will not sell out because Stampin' Up! will be manufacturing their own photopolymers from now on! yay!

Here's the card:

Stampin_up_sweetie_pies_1 - Copy

I've been using a lot of my retiring designer paper, getting ready for all the beautiful new patterns that are in the New Annual Catalog, so this card uses three of the designs from the Gingham Garden Designer Series paper. I also used the retiring Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder on the Basic Black strip across the center of the card. The flowers are stamped with the Flower Shop stamp set and punched with the Pansey Punch, which are NOT retiring, but the Bundle that saves you 15% off the combination of the stamp set and punch IS retiring. I will include the images for those in my supply list below so you can go right to my Online Store to order before the bundle sells out! The Wish Big greeting is from Delightful Dozen, which is also carrying over to the new catalog.

Stampin_up_sweetie_pies_2 - Copy

Inside and on the envelope I continued the Flower Shop theme, stamping with Melon Mambo, Island Indigo, and Daffodil Delight to match the Gingham Garden paper. The inside sentiment is from Really Good Greetings with is NOT retiring.

That's all for now. If you have been thinking about ordering any of the retiring stamp sets I would advise you GET THEM NOW before they are gone. Go to my webstore HERE or click on any of the pictures in the supply list below to start your order.

BTW! Stampin' Up! also just re-stocked the Clearance Rack with new discounted items from the last Holiday Catalog, so there's lots new there too!

AND all orders of $25 or more receive Bluesox Tokens from me, good toward free stuff from any Stampin' Up! catalog!

 

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! My Friend!

Stampin’ Up! My Friend!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Busy day yesterday! I finalized intineraries for the Stampin' Up! cruise in May, Stampin' Up! Inspire, Create, Share 2014 in mid-July, and a family vacation, also in July, then took care of Jessica's kiddos while she & her hubby went on spur-of-the-moment date!

Here's the card I have for you today:

Stampin_up_my_friend_1 - Copy

A Midnight Muse card base, layered with Whisper White, then a layer of Midnight Muse Core'dinations embossed with the Beautifully Barouque Textured Impressions Folder and lightly sanded with the Stampin' Sanding Block for more design definition.

Stampin_up_my_friend_2 - Copy

I inked the foliage stamp from My Friend first with Coastal Cabana, then sponged MIdnight Muse over the leaves, gradually sponging less as I reached the outer ends. After spritzing with water, I stamped on Whisper White. I stamped "Celebrate Today" from  Perfectly Penned with Midnight Muse, adhered to a layer of Coastal Cabana, then adhered to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.

For more dimension I added Crstal Effects to the outermost leaves, keeping the card flat for several minutes to allow it to dry. My final touch was a Midnight Muse In Color Dahlia.

Stampin_up_my_friend_3 - Copy
  Inside is a RIOT of dimension! Three Whisper White lattices cut with the Lattice Die,  one attached to each side. The third is scored in the middle so the card will close. Leaves were cut with the Secret Garden Die, and flowers and butterflies were punched from Watercolor Wonder Designer Paper. Pearls and a phrase from Really Good Greetings are the finishing touch.

That's about it for now! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
