Stampin’ Up! Sending Fall!

Stampin’ Up! Sending Fall!

Hey there! If you have been wondering what is going on with my blog, all I can say is right now I'm having a lot of trouble uploading photos to it. I've tried everything I can think of: restarting my laptop, updating my Windows, using my phone's hotspot instead of the house internet, trying to upload at varying times of day; you name it, I've probably tried it! What's really weird though is that I am able to upload and post the standard photos that I add to the bottom of every post, such as my Host Code, where to find the Host Code box in my online store, photos that accompany my monthly specials, SU! specials, etc, but I can't upload and post new photos!

If you are actually reading this post and seeing the Sending Fall card, that means I was able to post the pictures of it! Finally!

Note: After almost a month, I finally found that it wasn't anything I was doing wrong, it was my Blog Host, Typepad, that was having the issues!

I created this card with the Sending Fall Bundle. I've created a card similar to this one but with a spring-like look. You can find that card HERE.

Stampin_up_sending_sentiments_carolpaynestamps1

I used the Sending Dies to cut the two the two layers for the word. I cut the solid background from Cajun Craze, then cut the top detail word from Basic White with Adhesive Sheet on the back so all I had to do was remove the backing and it was easy to apply to the background. I adhered the word to a circle I had cut with a Stylish Shapes die from Gold Metallic Paper. I stamped the "birthday wishes" with Mossy Meadow ink on Basic White, then cut with another die from the Sending Dies pack. I finished off the look with a Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dot.

Stampin_up_sending_sentiments_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped the background with the Sending Smiles stamps and Cajun Craze, Mango Melody, and Mossy Meadow inks.

Stampin_up_sending_sentiments_carolpaynestamps3

I stamped the inside with more images from the front and a sentiment from the Happiness Abounds stamp set.

Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest is a Bundle!

Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest is a Bundle!

Hey there! Just a quick post this morning, as I am out the door in a few (with Fiona in tow) to spend some time today with my oldest daughter, Jessica, on her birthday! She is the baby girl who made me a momma, and I can't wait to spend some time with her! She is a busy wife, mother of 4, and an awesome photographer who especially loves to photograph newborns and babies. With her busy schedule and mine, it's hard to squeeze in a few hours together, but somehow we manage to do it around her birthday and mine! We are going antiquing for a bit and then lunch at one of her favorite restaurants, O Charley's!

I received this card as a swap a while back, and wanted to share it with you before the Apple Bundle expires on Friday. The Apple Harvest stamp set will still be available in the July/December Mini Catalog, but the Apple Blossom dies will not!

Stampin_up_apple_harvest_carolpaynestamps1
I would love to tell you who made this card, but currently it is misplaced! As soon as it turns up I will add the creator's name to this post!

It's sort of a z-fold with a bit of a joy fold added in!

Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous from Julia!

Stampin’ Up! Simply Fabulous from Julia!

Hey there! Today I have a simply fabulous card from my friend from my Demonstrator Council days, Julia Mazur! Julia used the Simply Fabulous stamp set with 2022-2024 In Colors to create a super-simple but wonderful card!

This card requires no Stampin' Cut & Emboss or fancy embellishments. The colors she used of Starry Sky, Parakeet Party, and Sweet Sorbet do all the work!

IMG_4734

This is such a great all-purpose card! Julia used only images from the Simply Fabulous set with Starry Sky, Sweet Sorbet, and Parakeet Party ink. She used a couple of the designs from the 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper, and put it all on a Starry Sky card base. This card didn't need much in the way of embellishments, so she just added a bow tied with Sweet Sorbet Baker's Twine and adhered with a mini glue dot!

IMG_4736

The Simply Fabulous stamps are photopolymer (clear) which makes them easy to line up!

IMG_4737

She even added fun stamping to the front of the envelope! Love it!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Monday!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Monday!

Hey there! We are currently on our way home from Branson after spending a lovely weekend away. You would think with grown children we would have more time alone, but we really don't. We spend a lot of our time, especially me, with our kids and grandchildren, and of course Mark is still farming, so we do really enjoy our annual anniversary trip. We saw some shows, did some shopping, and ate good food!

Today I am sharing my usual Sunday Swap Day card with you. Today's cards feature the Happiest of Happy and Wild & Sweet stamp sets!

First, a faux Center-Step card by Amy Rich with the Happier Than Happy Bundle and Happy Forest Friends Designer Paper:

Stampin_up_happier_than_happy_carolpaynestamps1

Next, Laura Milligan did her white space magic with the same Happier Than Happy Bundle and Happy Forest Friends Designer.

Stampin_up_happier_than_happy_carolpaynestamps3

Lanine Pohlman also used the Happier Than Happy Bundle, cutting the bear directly out of one of the sheets of Happy Forest Friends Designer Paper with a Happy Forest Die.

 

Stampin_up_happier_than_happy_carolpaynestamps6 - Copy

She turned her side-fold card into a gift-card holder.

Stampin_up_happier_than_happy_carolpaynestamps7

Alejandra Gomez used the Timber 3D embossing folder on the Sahara Sand layer, before adding the strip of Happy Forest Friends Designer paper. The greeting is from the Cottage Rose stamp set, the die she used to cut it out is from the All That Dies, the Mossy Meadow square was cut with a Stylish Shapes die, the ribbon is from the Old Olive and Sahara Sand Twill Ribbon Combo Pack, and the Brushed Brass Butterfly is discounted on the Weekly Deals right now!

Stampin_up_happier_than_happy_carolpaynestamps8

Lynn Feldkamp used Wild & Sweet stamps with the Fern 3D embossing folder, tearing, and sponging with Blending Brushes or Sponge Daubers.

Stampin_up_wild_&_sweet_carolpaynestamps1

Finally, Carol Slack combined the black-and-white look of the Wild & Sweet Panda with Parakeet Party.

Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest!

Stampin’ Up! Apple Harvest!

Hey there! Today I have the full Apple Harvest card I shared a sneak peek of yesterday. I used the Apple Harvest Bundle (stamp set & dies, available while-supplies-last or until September 30th) with Gingham Cottage Designer Paper. I used a new-t0-me-fold, the center pop-out fold, shared recently by Wendy Cranford with a card base of Garden Green!

Stampin_up_apple_harvest_carolpaynestamps1

 After stamping the apple branch and blossoms with Tuxedo Black ink I then used Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Soft Suede, So Saffron, and Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends Markers to color. After cutting out with the coordinating Apple Blossoms die, I colored around the edges with a Light Gray Granite Stampin' Blends and added touches of Clear Wink of Stella to the redness of the apples.

Stampin_up_apple_harvest_carolpaynestamps2

I stamped the greeting, included in the Apple Harvest set, with black ink and then cut with the label die included in the Apple Blossoms dies. I added a small bow tied with Black & White 1/4" Gingham Ribbon.

Stampin_up_apple_harvest_carolpaynestamps3

There are so many pretty images in the Apple Blossom set to color!

Stampin_up_apple_harvest_carolpaynestamps4

After stamping and coloring the largest apple image I used the Gray Granite Stampin' Blends to line around it. I also ran the same marker around the outside of the sentiment layer to give the look of another layer. I decided to leave the sentiment layer free of any words so I can add a personal note later.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day August 21st, Best Butterfly!

Hey there! Today is Sunday, so you know what that means! Sunday Swap Day! Today all of the swaps I am sharing have been created with the Best Butterfly Bundle and Butterfly Kisses 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper!

First, Barb Mulliken's creation. Barb also used a Stylish Shapes Die and Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Stampin_up_best_butterflies_carolpaynestamps1

Next, Lisa Marie Smith also used a Stylish Shapes die and Rhinestones.

Stampin_up_best_butterflies_carolpaynestamps2

Stampin_up_best_butterflies_carolpaynestamps3

Jan Rodrian used Starry Sky, Calypso coral, and Crushed Curry on her book-binding-fold card!

Stampin_up_best_butterflies_carolpaynestamps4

Just adorable!

Stampin_up_best_butterflies_carolpaynestamps5

Lynn Feldkamp's creation is simple but stunning. She added Fun Flowers Resin Shapes along the bottom right edge!

Stampin_up_best_butterflies_carolpaynestamps6

Finally, another Jan Rodrian creation. Jan used the Stitched Greenery die to emboss the white background layer. She added a Fun Flower Resin Shape and a couple of 2022-2024 In-Color Matte Dots to complete her Fresh Freesia/Parakeet Party/Basic White color combo.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Tuesday August 16!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Tuesday August 16!

Hey there! LOTS going on this past weekend! I had my Christmas in July in August Class on Friday night and Saturday afternoon, then Sunday we had our August Birthdays celebration. We have 6 August birthdays (mine is one of them), which is the most we have in any month so far, so it was a big day! School starts for most of us today so they didn't stay to late, but my internet was acting up and I couldn't work on my post until this morning. Then my daughter needed me to babysit her kiddos today, so I didn't get a chance to finish this post until late afternoon. I decided to schedule this post for Tuesday morning. As you can see, my life is very "fluid" right now!

I still have cards to share with you from Christmas in July, but I need to share this next set of swaps with you before I do later this week!

First, Judi Anderson combined the Go-To-Greetings stamp set with Awash in Beauty Designer Paper and the Gingham Embossing Folder. The Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Basic White and a strip of Balmy Blue color combo is so soothing and pleasing, coordinating so well with the font of the "Just a Note" greeting.

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps1

In this Flirty Flamingo-based card, Judi Anderson again created a pleasing combo with Merry Merlot, Flirty Flamingo, Basic White, and Awash in Beauty Designer Paper. She stamped the "Thinking of You" with Mossy Meadow.

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps2

Cathy Seal used classic black & white with Go-To-Greetings and one of the two Fancy Frames Dies. I'd love to receive a packet of these as a gift, wouldn't you?

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps3

Beth Robinson created a fun-fold panel card with another one of the Go-To-Greetings, Lovely Linen Designer Paper and the Lovely & Lasting Bundle of stamps and punch.

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps4

This fun-fold has three levels of looks:

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps5

A connection between the two side-panels is accomplished with a strip of clear Window Sheet.

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps6

The final layer:

Stampin_up_go_to_greetings_carolpaynestamps7

Joyce Feraco also used Lovely Linen Designer Paper with the Lovely & Lasting Bundle. She featured the Starry Sky 1/8" Metallic Ribbon to coordinate with the Night of Navy in the paper.

Stampin_up_lovely_&_lasting_carolpaynestamps1

Finally, Sharon Bouck used the Pretty Pop-Ups Dies with Fresh Freesia and Soft Succulent for her delicate card. She highlighted the pop-up features with Fresh Freesia ink added with a Blending Brush.

Stampin’ Up! Perched in a Tree!

Stampin’ Up! Perched in a Tree!

Hey there! Today I have a pair of cards we will be making at my Christmas in July in August Class this weekend. My stampers will have the choice to make basically the same card, but with two choices of Painted Christmas Designer paper behind the Aspen Tree die-cut Kraft paper layer or to emboss the Aspen Tree die-cut layer with the Timber 3D embossing folder or not! Which one do you prefer?

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps1

Here is the un-embossed card.  All of the stamped images and sentiments I used are included in the Perched in a Tree stamp set. You can buy the stamps and the dies together in a bundle or buy the stamps and then order other products to total $100 and get the Aspen Tree dies for free! This is a great Sale-a-bration deal, but only while supplies last or until August 31st!

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps2

This cute fat birdie is all fluffed out to keep warm in the cold! I added Clear Wink of Stella to him for a bit of shimmer, which of course doesn't show in the picture but looks great in real life!

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps3

I added color to the birdie, which is stamped with Soft Suede, using the splotchy stamp included in the Perched in a Tree set. Here are examples of the splotches stamped with full-strength Soft Suede and stamped-off-once Soft Suede. For the finished birdie I used stamped-off-twice Soft Suede before adding the Clear Wink of Stella.

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps9

I stamped the greeting with Soft Suede ink on Soft Succulent before cutting out with the larger leaf die-cut from the Aspen Tree Dies. I added a few Champagne Rhinestones for some autumn sparkle!

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps4

I cut one more Soft Succulent leaf and rhinestone to finish it all off!

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps5

Inside I embossed a Kraft layer with the Timber 3D embossing folder before adding a Soft Succulent layer stamped with another Perched In A Tree sentiment and the branch image with Soft Suede ink.

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps6

Here's the alternate sample with the pine cone Painted Christmas background and the Aspen Tree die-cut layer embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.

Stampin_up_perched_in_a_tree_carolpaynestamps7

Embossing the layer is an easy but elegant added touch!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day on Monday!

Hey there! Today I want to share some bright and cheery swaps with you for Sunday Swap Day on Monday!

Let's get started, shall we?

First, Lynn Feldkamp combined the Sweet Cherries Bundle with the Dots & Spots Die (which is a SAB freebie choice when you order $100) :

Next, Heather Guerrero used Stylish Shapes dies, Stitched Greenery die, and Black & White 1/4" Gingham ribbon for her Sweetest Cherries card:

Nikki Barnhart used a little fun-fold for her card, adding Clear Wink of Stella to the cherries and using Real Red 3/8" Mini Ruffled Ribbon.

Linda Cullen added an Artisan Additions die-cut over a strip of Lovely in Linen designer series paper to her Sweetest Cherries card.

Linda Pagel used a Scalloped Contours die to create the ruffled-looking background over the Parakeet Party Stitched Greenery layer.

Ruth Bingle punched the leaves and stems from Parakeet Party In Color Glimmer Paper, and the cherries from the same paper pack in Sweet Sorbet!
