Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Blooms Lovely Ribbons!

Stampin’ Up! Heartfelt Blooms Lovely Ribbons!

Hey there! I played around again with the Heartfelt Blooms set and different ribbons to adorn the same layout. Stampin' Up! has so may gorgeous ribbons in their catalog, it's hard to decide sometimes which one to use, so I made multiple cards and used several!

I was inspired by a card created by Jan Wakeland to stamp the Heartfelt Blooms with black ink on glossy card stock. I started with a Soft Suede card base for all of my cards today, followed by a layer of one of our pinks. I used Powder Pink for this one, adding a Clear Faceted Gem for the center. I used  Powder Pink 3/8" Shimmer Ribbon from the Annual Catalog.

My next card contained all of the same elements, but I switched to Powder Pink 1/2" Finely Woven Ribbon for the finishing touch.

Stampin_up_glossy_heartfelt_blooms_carolpaynestamps6

For this card I used Sweet Sugarplum card stock behind the focal image and used Berry Burst 1/2" Finely Woven Ribbon for the bow.

For my final card,  I used Smoky Slate 1/2" Gingham Ribbon with the Soft Suede, Powder Pink, and Basic Black-stamped glossy card stock.

The patent-pending "distinktive" style bloom stamps so crisply on the glossy card stock, it looks like a photo!

You just need a little bit of care to not let your stamp slide on the slick surface of the glossy card stock!

Heartfelt Blooms contains thanks and thinking of you sentiments in lovely script and bold font.

Stampin’ Up! Dapper Denim Epic Celebrations!

Stampin’ Up! Dapper Denim Epic Celebrations!

Hey there! While I was playing with the Epic Celebrations set a few days ago, I created today's card with Dapper Denim and Lemon Lime Twist. You know me, I like to do at least two versions of just about every card I create, and this one is no exception. Can you tell what I changed?

Stampin_up_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps1

My first card I heat-embossed the speckles with white powder before dry embossing with the Simple Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and the Big Shot.

Stampin_up_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps2

I created a double banner effect by snipping the ends of Lemon Lime Twist and Dapper Denim into banner points. I then heat-embossed "you're awesome" with white powder.

Stampin_up_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps3

I loved the min-medallion look from my previous Epic Celebration card, so I used both the 1 1/4" Circle Punch and the 1 3/8" Scallop Circle to create one for this card.

Stampin_up_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps4

My second version has the guitar stamped between the embossed speckles before dry embossing with the Simple Stripes folder.

Stampin_up_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps6

Inside I stamped Stylized Birthday and the guitar with Dapper Denim  and the speckles with Lemon Lime Twist.

Stampin’ Up! Lots of Eggplant and Lavender!

Stampin’ Up! Lots of Eggplant and Lavender!

Hey there! I hold a class at the Cozy Table Restaurant in Benton IL, on the third Thursday of the month, and today is the day! yay!

The first card we are going to make was originally created by Raedean Shibata. Raedean used the simply gorgeous Lots of Lavendar Sale-a-bration set:

Stampin_up_lots_of_lavender_carolpaynestamps1

If you want to look like an artist, choose Lots of Lavendar as your freebie! The outline stamps and the images to fill in the blooms and leaves stamp perfectly!

Stampin_up_lots_of_lavender_carolpaynestamps2

We'll use Perfect Plum ink refill dropped onto the inkpad lid, adding water with an Aqua Painter.

Stampin_up_lots_of_lavender_carolpaynestamps3

We'll tap the watery ink from the Aqua Painter on our finger to add splatters:

Stampin_up_lots_of_lavender_carolpaynestamps4

After coloring the ribbon with a Daffodil Delight marker, we'll add Fine Tip Glue for dimension as well as shimmer to the blooms with a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

Stampin_up_lots_of_lavender_carolpaynestamps5

We'll finish the inside with a sentiment from Petal Palette.

Stampin’ Up! Epic Celebrations for Sale-a-bration!

Stampin’ Up! Epic Celebrations for Sale-a-bration!

Hey there! The card I want to share with you today uses another set from the Sale-a-bration brochure, Epic Celebrations.  I combined it with the Hardwood Background and the "flex fold" technique to create this:

Stampin_up_hardwood_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps1

You can faintly see the tennis shoes stamped over the Hardwood with stamped-off Crumb Cake.

I stamped the "you're awesome". also from Epic Celebrations, repeatedly on the Very Vanilla strip with stamped-off Crumb Cake, then added the splotches with full-strength Crumb Cake. The tennis shoes and headphones are stamped with Basic Black.

Stampin_up_hardwood_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps3

I punched the Basic Black-stamped "here's to an epic celebration" with a 1 1/4" Circle Punch, then backed it with a Basic Black 1 3/8" Scallop Circle.

Stampin_up_hardwood_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I repeated the Hardwood, splotches, and tennis shoes with Crumb Cake, followed by Stylized Birthday stamped with Basic Black.

Stampin_up_hardwood_epic_celebrations_carolpaynestamps5

The Flex-fold fun fold measures 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4" and 6 3/8" along the 8 1/2" side. The Crumb Cake front layer is 4" x 5 1/4", matching the Crumb Cake inside layer. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue to adhere the front layer just to the narrow fold of the Basic Black card front.

Stampin’ Up! Party Pandas for Lando!

Stampin’ Up! Party Pandas for Lando!

Hey there! We went to Lando's 3rd birthday party on Saturday! Birthday parties for little people are messy, crazy, and fun! He was very excited about the present we gave him, a Lightning McQueen car that is about two feet long. He usually has a car of some kind in his hand all the time, and of course they are always getting lost, but this one shouldn't be hard to find!

26238822_10102395426647968_8544179712274086015_n

As usual, I made him a special card. I used the Party Pandas Sale-a-bration set with the Birthday Delivery stamp set & framelits, in addition with Pacific Point, Real Red, and Whisper White to create this another "flex-fold" card:

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps1

 I love using Pacific Point and Real Red for little boy cards!

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps3

 To get the spacing right with so many pandas on the front layer, I started with the banner, stamped with Birthday Delivery stamps and cut out with a Birthday Friends Framelit.

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps4

 I then stamped the pandas from the top down to make sure they all would fit!

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps6

 I stamped the confetti image from Party Panda's (free with a $50 order during Sale-a-bration) in first Pacific Point and then Real Red. I punched a Red Glimmer balloon with the Balloon Bouquet Punch.

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps7

 Stylized Birthday is one of my favorite bold birthday greetings!

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps8

 This is another "flex-fold" card. The Pacific Point base is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4" and 6 3/8". It's one of my favorites right now!

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps9

 I colored the balloon on the envelope with a Real Red Stampin' Write Marker.

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps2

 I used a couple of Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the envelope to the package.

 I stamped the confetti image from Party Panda's (free with a $50 order during Sale-a-bration) in first Pacific Point and then Real Red. I punched a Red Glimmer balloon with the Balloon Bouquet Punch.

 Stylized Birthday is one of my favorite bold birthday greetings!

 This is another "flex-fold" card. The Pacific Point base is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4" and 6 3/8". It's one of my favorites right now!

 I colored the balloon on the envelope with a Real Red Stampin' Write Marker.

 I used a couple of Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the envelope to the package.

Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop January Edition: Let’s Sale-a-brate!

Stamper’s Dozen Blog Hop January Edition: Let’s Sale-a-brate!

Hey there! Welcome to the January Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop! We are happy to again be back to a full Stamper's Dozen (baker's dozen = 13) of crafty creators! yay!

Our theme this month, "Let's Sale-a-brate!", uses at least one product from the Sale-a-bration catalog!

For my project(s) this month I used three different Sale-a-bration items.. Each one was free with a $50 product order!

I used Tutti-Frutti  Cards & Envelopes, Heartfelt Blooms stamps, and the Shimmer Ribbon Pack, all from the Sale-a-bration brochure for my creations today.

' Stampin_up_heartfelt_blooms_carolpaynestamps1

I started with the Tutti-Frutti Cards & Envelopes for all of my card bases. This free pack (choose this with your $50 order) contains 16 preprinted card bases and envelopes; 4 each of 4 designs in Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Lemon-Lime Twist, and Pool Party. (See the supply list at the bottom of this post for the full list)

I stamped the Heartfelt Blooms flower withe Tuxedo Momento Black ink  on Glossy card stock. You want to use a not-too-juicy inkpad and a light touch while inking and stamping to get the best image. This flower is part of Stampin' Up!'s new "Distinktive" line of stamps. Distinktive is also patent-pending because the way the rubber is made it lays down ink at different opacities to give the finished image more depth. Inked lightly, you get a perfect photographic finish!

For this card I stamped the Heartfelt Bloom with Bermuda Bay ink on Glossy card stock.

I used the Basic Gray 1/4" wide Shimmer Ribbon from the free Sale-a-bration pack.

The Pool Party Tutti-Frutti Adhesive-Backed Sequins coordinated nicely.

I stamped a Heartfelt Blooms sentiment with Bermuda Bay ink. The trick with stamping on Glossy card stock is to be careful to not slide the stamp slide on the slick surface to keep your image crisp.

Inside I used a sentiment from Beautiful Day to turn this into a birthday card. I stamped the matching Tutti-Frutti Envelope with Heartfelt Blooms for a custom look.

The Calypso Coral version:

Lemon Lime Twist. This card is an example of using a too-juicy ink pad. The image detail was lost because of too much ink on the rubber.

Finally, my favorite card of the group! I loved the black-stamped image with the Daffodil Delight card base and ribbon!

The Daffodil Delight 1/4" Double-Stitched Ribbon coordinated great with the card base.

After wrapping the ribbon around the card front I added the bow with glue dots. The Clear Faceted Gem is the flower center.
