Stampin’ Up! It’s Sunday Swap Day with Something for Baby!

Stampin’ Up! It’s Sunday Swap Day with Something for Baby!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Sunday, which means it's time to share some swaps! I know I've been absent from my blog quite a bit this week. Part of the reason is I broke my camera lens a few weeks ago and now when I take pics with my little point-and-shoot I'm just not happy with them at all. A new lens has finally been ordered, so hopefully it will come in soon and I can get my blogging mojo back.

Today I have three baby cards to share, all using the new set, Something for Baby!

First, Raedean Shibata created this simple congratulations card, including paper-piercing using a template from the Festive Paper Piercing pack and a greeting from Something to Say. She paired Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock with a selection from the Lullaby Designer Paper pack.

Stampin_up_something_for_baby_1

She used Crisp Cantaloupe and Hello Honey Stampin' Write Markers to ink the bib stamp. Sooooo cute!

Next, a much larger image from Something for Baby was used for this card, which unfortunately I have lost the creator's info. Some swappers attach their info on the back of the card on a post-it note, which helps me keep the name with the card, but some do not. If it's just loose with the card, it's much more likely to get lost as I take the swaps with me to workshops and classes.

Stampin_up_something_for_baby_2

This card features just Whisper White and Daffodil Delight. Just two colors, but it makes a very visually pleasing look! The rhinestones were colored with one of the Daffodil Delight Blendability markers, which should finally be available in a few weeks.

Lastly, I CASED this card from Deb Valder. Deb makes the most amazing cards. I stepped up just a few things, but I'd definitely going to be making more cards with this template, and I know you are going to want to know how!

Stampin_up_something_for_baby_block_2

This card stands up on it's own and is called a "block card". Doesn't it look just like a stack of baby blocks? Images from Something for Baby were cut with the coordinating Baby's First Framelits.

Stampin_up_something_for_baby_block_1

(Please pardon the sawdust. Apparently we have wood bees trying to make a home in our deck roof!) I cut the numbers with the "1, 2, and 3" from the File Tabs Edgelits Dies.

Stampin_up_something_for_baby_block_3

Pretty, pretty, pretty!

On the top blocks I stamped more phrases from Something to Say:

Stampin_up_something_for_baby_block_4

The tiny little hearts were punched with the Owl Builder Punch.

Stampin’ Up! Owl Graduate by Donna!

Stampin’ Up! Owl Graduate by Donna!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm still up after midnight, so I'm going to do a quick post and then head off to bed!

One of my dear stamping friends, Donna, came to my Birthday Card Buffet this past Saturday. Donna has been stamping with me since probably 2005, over 9 years ago, and during that time has become a really good friend.

Donna stamps ALOT. She has a good portion of her basement outfitted for her stamping domain. We have a monthly stamp camp there and we love it!

Donna made this special graduation card for her niece who just graduated from college:

Stampin_up_owl_builder_graduation_1
Isn't this just adorable????!!!!

Donna used the Owl Builder Punch, the Scalloped Oval Punch, and a few other elements to create her graduating birdie!

Stampin_up_owl_builder_graduation_2

She hand-cut the pieces for the graduation cap, and custom-dyed the Baker's Twine to get the rich red color for the tassel.

Stampin_up_owl_builder_punch_graduation_3
Stamped-off Smoky Slate was used to stamp the "celebrate" background. I love this extra little touch that adds so much to the specialness of this card!

That's all for now! I've got to put myself to bed.

You can find many of the supplies to make this card in my Online Store.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Cruise Swaps Part 5!

Stampin’ Up! Cruise Swaps Part 5!

Posted on 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:

Stampin_up_million_one

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.

Stampin_up_pleasant_poppies_1

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.

Stampin_up_so_very_happy_1

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! Cruise Swaps Part 4!

Stampin’ Up! Cruise Swaps Part 4!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! So many cute swaps to share, I just decided to keep it rolling this week!

First, a gorgeously silver-embossed creation using Flowering Flourishes and Petite Pairs. Somehow I have lost the creator's info, so if you know who made it, please let me know!

Stampin_up_flowering_flourishes_1

I love how there are both tiny pearls and tiny silver brads to pull the white and the silver together. The Boho Blossom-punched flowers have been distressed and separated using the Faux Suede technique to achieve the soft layers.

Not often do you get a swap that is not only a full card (most are just card fronts), but is stamped inside too:

Stampin_up_flowering_flourishes_2

Supply list while browsing my Online Store:

Next, Linda Bauwin white-embossed the new Friends Who Know, cutting it with a Label Collection Framelit. She clear-embossed the flourish from Everything Eleanor on the Basic Black, smudging the black a bit with Whisper White Craft ink for a "chalkboard" look!

Linda's final touch: vellum butterfies cut and embossed with the Beautiful Wings embosslit and tiny pearls!

Stampin_up_friends_who_know

To order these supplies, go to my Online Store:

Finally, Lisa Marie Smith combined Six-Sided Sampler with the Hexagon punch and the Honeycomb Textured Impressions Folder:

Stampin_up_six_sided_sampler_1

New In Colors Blackberry Bliss, Lost Lagoon, and Mossy Meadow really pop on the Basic Black! The butterfly from Polka-Dot Pieces is stamped with Whisper White Craft ink on Basic Black,then punched with the Elegant Butterfly punch. A Whisper White greeting banner and Rhinestones make this card perfect!

You will find all the products for Lisa's card in my Online Store:
