Stampin’ Up! Bubbles & Fizz Mini Treat Bag Birthday Cards!

Stampin’ Up! Bubbles & Fizz Mini Treat Bag Birthday Cards!

Hey there! Today I am sharing the last of my Bubbles & Fizz-fest of creating back before the Christmas rush took over. Rest assured, I'm sure I'm not done creating with the Bubbles & Fizz Sale-a-bration paper or the Bubble Over Bundle, these are just the last for now!

I must admit, once I started making this Mini Treat-Bag-birthday-cards, I had a hard time figuring out when to stop! I ended up using just about every print from the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper pack, and because I've already earned several FREE with $50 SAB orders, I had not one bit of guilt using up a pack!

Stampin_up_bubble_&_fizz_mini_treat_bags_carolpaynestamps1

This pack is so bright and happy, I love all of the prints! Stampin' Up! was soooooo smart to make this pack of paper to match the Bubble Over Bundle! Everyone is wanting to get their hands on it, so naturally they are placing orders of at least $50 to get it free!

The Bubble Over Bundle of stamps and framelits is the perfect place to start building your order.  At $40.50 for the bundle (saving 10%), you only have to add a couple more items to get the $50 order needed to choose the Bubbles & Fizz paper for free!

I used the Mini Treat Bag Thinlets Dies to create the fun pouch/bag for the simple card I stamped with the Stylized Birthday greeting using Bermuda Bay ink.

The Bottles & Bubbles Framelits that coordinate with the Bubble Over stamps have this cute little bottle cap die that cuts Silver Foil out perfectly for the top of the vellum "bottle" I sponged with Bermuda Bay or Calypso Coral ink. It was easy (and fun!) to stamp the bubbles & fizz around the bottle with the stamp in the set.

Stampin_up_bubble_&_fizz_carolpaynestamps5

I let my imagination fly free combining the prints from the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper to create the bags and to embellish the inside "card".  For this one I stamped the inside with the Birthday Wishes for You stamp.

Stampin_up_bubble_&_fizz_carolpaynestamps8

The designs of the paper are mostly neutral; they can be used  for both sexes. I used the Circle Tab Punch to adhere to the top of the card insert with Tear & Tape Adhesive for extra strength when pulled. After stamping the tiny heart with Bermuda Bay ink I punched with the 3/4" Circle punch to fit inside the circle tab.

Stampin_up_bubble_&_fizz_carolpaynestamps9

Big on Birthdays provided the greeting for this one. Aren't those rows of soda bottles absolutely adorable?

Stampin_up_bubble_&_fizz_carolpaynestamps10

After creating the bellyband with a 1" x 8 1/2" strip of Bubbles & Fizz, I adhered it around the bag with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I even adhered the bellyband to the bag to help anchor the focal image circle cut with a Stitched Shapes Framelit.

Stampin’ Up! Bubble Over Goes Vertical!

Stampin’ Up! Bubble Over Goes Vertical!

Hey there! While I was playing with the Bubble Over Bundle and the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper I created this:

Stampin_up_bubble_over_carolpaynestamps1

The Bubble Over Bundle contains the Bubble Over stamp set and the Bottles & Bubbles Framelits Dies. The $40.50 price is a 10% savings over buying them separately!

146082G

I layered strips of Bubbles  & Fizz Designer Series Paper over the Whisper White layer I embossed with the Oh My Stars Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I cut white vellum card stock with a Bottles & Bubbles Framelit die, then sponged on Bermuda Bay ink to give it a soda-filled look. Guess this must be blueberry soda? lol! The Whisper White straw is also cut with a Bottles & Bubbles Framelit.

Stampin_up_bubble_over_carolpaynestamps2

Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper is found in the Sale-a-bration Catalog, and can be yours for free when you place an order of $50 before tax & shipping!

147244G  CM100011S
I stamped the greeting from Bubble Over with Bermuda Bay ink on the Whisper White layer BEFORE I embossed with the Oh My Stars Folder.

Stampin_up_bubble_over_carolpaynestamps3

Inside I stamped the Birthday Wishes For You images with Bermuda Bay and Calypso coral ink. I love adding the "bubbles & fizz" imags around it with Bermuda Bay (blueberry soda?)

Stampin_up_birthday_wishes_for_your_carolpaynestamps2

I actually stamped the Birthday Wishes For You sentiment twice, first with Bermuda Bay ink on the white layer and then with Calypso Coral on a scrap piece of white so I could cut out the "HAPPY" banner to adhere over the first stamping.

Stampin’ Up! Fruit Basket!

Stampin’ Up! Fruit Basket!

Hey there! Another adorable bundle in the Occasions Catalog is the Fruit Basket Bundle! Most of our bundles contain stamps and framlit dies for the Big Shot, but the Fruit Basket Bundle contains stamps and the cutest set of little punches ever! I used the bundle to create my card today along with the Tutti Fruitti Designer Series Paper Stack:

Stampin_up_fruit_basket_carolpaynestamps1

Here's the Fruit Basket stamp set and the Itty Bitty Fruit Punch pack of punches in the bundle! At $35 for 25 stamps and 4 punches, it's a great value! And you save 10% by buying the bundle! Every little bit helps, right?

145977G

I love this print from the Tutti Fruitte Designer Series Paper. This is just ONE of the fun prints in the pack!

Stampin_up_fruit_basket_carolpaynestamps2

All of the Tutti Fruitti prints!

145606G

I paired this print with Soft Suede for the card base and Real Red for the accent layers.  This combo was perfect to use a couple of Corrugated Elements! Did you receive a pack of these from me in November as my thank-you for ordering from me? Place an order this month is my online store and I will tuck a few of these in with my Thank You card!

I used my Stampin' Trimmer to score a line down the middle of the Real Red strip just for a little more texture and interest. Adding simple score lines doesn't cost anything extra but adds so much appeal!

Stampin_up_fruit_basket_carolpaynestamps3

Sweet and simple! A really quick and easy card!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Birthday Cards!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Birthday Cards!

Hey there! It's back to Sunday Swap Days in 2018! yay! It seems like no matter how many swaps I share with you, I always have more! I have Occasions and Sale-a-bration swaps I haven't even photographed yet! I need to work on my camera settings before I take any more pictures to see what I can do about fixing the "yellowness". Today's pics were taken before my camera got fiddled with, so they are pretty ok.

First, Sandy Carlson combined the Annual catalog set, Celebrate You, with Birthday Memories Designer Series paper for a sweet and cheery card. I love the silver touches with Silver Foil, Whisper White 3/8" Metallic-Edge Ribbon, Rhinestones, and a Silver Foil Doily!

Stampin_up_celebrate_you_carolpaynestamps1

Next, Sharon Tong-Robinson used the Beautiful Bouquet Bundle (Annual Catalog) with the Garden Trellis Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for a spring-y card. Her little touch of Linen Thread and cutting the greeting out with a Stitched Shapes Oval Framelit are perfect!

Stampin_up_beautiful_bouquet_carolpaynestamps

Linda Pagel used the Celebration Time Bundle (Annual Catalog) for her stunning Powder Pink, Whisper White, and Silver creation.

Stampin_up_celebration_time_carolpaynestamps1

Karen Kurz used Country Livin' and the Hardwood Background Stamp for her masculine birthday card. I love her coloring with the Stampin' Blends (Occasions Catalog), and her accent with the cut-out cowboy boots!

Stampin_up_country_livin_carolpaynestamps1

Kim Allen combined the Marbled Background with the Magical Mermaid set, both from the Annual catalog. The Marbled stamped on Pool Party really gives a swirling, watery look!After stamping and cutting out the focal images, she accented with a bit of a Delicate White Doily and a strip of Fabulous Foil Designer Series Paper. The black & white ribbon is retired from the Holiday Catalog.

Stampin_up_magical_mermaid_carolpaynestamps1

Finally, Janace Charbonneau used the Oh So Eclectic Bundle from the Annual catalog with a background created with a Pattern Party Decorative Mask and Embossing Paste. She expertly colored the blooms and leaves with Stampin' Blends Markers (Occasions Catalog), adding accents of Rhinestones and Whisper White 3/8" Classic Weave Ribbon. She found her greeting in the Better Together Annual catalog set.

Stampin’ Up! Mini Gusseted Treat Bag!

Stampin’ Up! Mini Gusseted Treat Bag!

Hey there! How are you doing today? Are you staying warm if you live in the Northern Hemisphere? It's been frigidly cold here for over a week, and they are saying we are going to get some "winter mix", freezing rain, ice tomorrow night, so winter is officially here!

I've been under the weather for the past week with a pretty nasty cold. I'm slowly on the mend, but haven't been accomplishing as much as I would like/need to. Before Christmas I had a few days of glorious play with new Sale-a-bration and Occasions Catalog stuff. A fun 3-D I made was this gusseted treat bag made with the Mini Treat Bag Die and Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper:

Stampin_up_bubbles_and_fizz_carolpaynestamps1

Isn't this just the cutest thing? The Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper colors of Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, Lemon Lime Twist, and Basic Gray are so bright and happy! This designer series paper is only available as a free item when you spend $50, but I used the Mini Treat Bag Thinlets Dies and Bottles & Bubbles Framelits Dies, which are both available to order. The two combined will be more than enough to qualify for the free DSP!

I used Bermuda Bay, Calypso Coral, and Lemon Lime Twist card stock and Silver Foil and Silver Glimmer Paper for the embellishment pieces.

Stampin_up_bubbles_and_fizz_carolpaynestamps2

The addition of the gusseted sides makes this a roomy little box. I filled it with some silver ready shreddie from the Sweet Soiree Ready Shreddie pack on page 13 of the Occasions Catalog.

Stampin_up_bubbles_and_fizz_carolpaynestamps3

The bottom sides of the bag are not completely attached, so this bag is reserved for light-but-yummy treats, like a chocolate bar or a bag of Skittles!

I followed a YouTube video by Kay Kalthoff to create my bag: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piQ8r7Xcjsc

Stampin’ Up! Let the Good Times Roll and More!

Stampin’ Up! Let the Good Times Roll and More!

 

Hey there! Next week  at my meeting for my team, the Yes Mam! Stampers, we are having a Shoebox Swap, where everyone brings a card they've created with all of the supplies to make it in a "shoebox". We all get to make each other's cards, and it's a blast!

I will share those cards with you after the meeting, but I remembered I had the cards we made at the Yes Mam! Christmas party still waiting to be shared. Linda Reaney and Joanne Cantrell both attended OnStage Live with me in Salt Lake City, Utah,  and I asked them to create projects for us with the new goodies they were able to pre-pre-order. OnStage attendees get to pre-order from a selection of new catalog products before the rest of the demonstrator population. It's one of the perks of attending a Stampin' Up! event! All Stampin' Up! demonstrators were allowed to pre-order from everything in the Occasions Catalog on December 1st, which is just ONE great perk of purchasing the Demonstrator Starter Kit!

First, Linda used the Beautiful Peacock Sale-a-bration set. She combined the set with Gold Glimmer Paper and Eastern Medallion Thinlets Dies for a sparkly look!

Stampin_up_beautiful_peacock_carolpaynestamps1

We used Soft Sky, Dapper Denim, and Lemon Lime Twist with a layered banner of Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration) under Tutti Frutti 6"x6" Designer Series Paper in the middle. We stamped a sentiment from Beautiful Peacock with Dapper Denim to punch with the Classic Label Punch. The random little flowers and medallions stamped with Soft Sky and Lemon Lime Twist are the perfect touches around the focal image!

Stampin_up_beautiful_peacock_carolpaynestamps3l

Joanne Cantrell created a super-simple-but-super-cute card with the Party Pandas Sale-a-bration set. A layer of Garden Green was embossed with one of the two Petal Pair Textured Impressions Embossing Folders, and a piece of 5/8" Burlap Ribbon was added to tie it all together! Simple and quick!

Stampin_up_party_pandas_carolpaynestamps1

Next, Joanne embossed a Basic Gray card base with the Brick Wall Textured Impressions Embossing Folder as a "castle background" for the dragon and the wizard from Magical Day (new in the Occasions Catalog!)

Stampin_up_magical_day_carolpaynestamps1

We stamped the dragon with Basic Gray ink on the Basic Gray card front before we embossed with the Brick Wall Folder.

Stampin_up_magical_day_carolpaynestamps2

We colored the Wizard with the Light Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends Marker, as well as the Ivory Stampin' Blends for his face and hands. We added Clear Wink of Stella to his beard for some wizard-y sparkle!

Stampin_up_magical_day_carolpaynestamps3

Joanne created cards for us from simple to complex! We used the Let the Good Times Roll bundle of stamps and Thrill Ride Pop-Up Thinlets Dies to create this fun card:

Stampin_up_let_the_good_times_roll_carolpaynestamps1

Inside is a fun surprise, a pop-out roller coaster!

Stampin_up_let_the_good_times_roll_carolpaynestamps2

I will admit, it is a little fiddly, but the result is fun. I would recommend you only purchase this bundle if you like a challenge and enjoy a learning curve. As you can see, my roller coaster base front layer is popping up a bit, showing that I would need to make a few more of these before I felt proficient enough to offer this in a class. Alas, I don't plan to, but you are welcome to give it a go!
