Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day #1!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day #1!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Happy Sunday morning to you! I've decided to make Sundays be "Swap Day"; the day I showcase swaps I have received during the previous month. Some will have the creators name but some will not due to either the creator not adding their info to the back of their swap or the info fell out of the inside during transit, but
All products are ©Stampin'Up!™1990-2013

First up, a cute little fun-fold-y card from Ann Betty using the Secret Garden stamps & framelits and Baked Brown Sugar Designer Paper:

Next a bright & cheery card showcasing the 2013-2015 In Colors with the Flower Shop Bundle & Really Good Greetings stamp sets. The 3/8" Ruffled Stretch Ribbon adds an additional special touch!

Finally, a Very Vanilla/Basic Black elegant card using the Modern Medley Designer Paper, a Tea Lace Doily, Elegant Butterfly Punch, Very Vintage Designer Button, Victoria Crochet Trim, 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch, Basic Jewel Pearls, and "hello" from the Happy Day stamp set!

The fun surprise with this card is the bottom-opening flap that tucks up under the top closure!

Hello 2

That's all for today. Thanks so much for stopping by. Hope you have a restful Sunday and that your day Stampingrox!

Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Soiree!

Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Soiree!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! I know it's early July, but I can't resist showing you one of the cards for my Christmas Card Class/Club next week! It's a CASE of a card by Nancy Leedy using the Snowflake Soiree and More Merry Messages stamp sets. Both sets are not shown in the catalog but are available on the Carryover List!
Snowflakes 1
The card base and third layer is Pool Party, and the ink colors are Cherry Cobbler, Pool Party, and Versamark! All the "bling" of this card is from the Silver Embossing Powder, Silver Glimmer Paper layer, and Basic Jewel Rhinestones! I used the Stamp-a-ma-jig for perfect placement of the "Christmas Blessings" greeting.

The stamping technique is Triple Time Stamping, a technique that looks complicated, but is actually VERY EASY and FUN!

Snowflakes 2

Inside is another phrase from More Merry Messages, and the same stamps and inks!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I will be back tomorrow! Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop Bundle!

Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop Bundle!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! Hope you are enjoying a long July 4th weekend! Today I want to share with you another card we will be making at my SWOW class next weekend using the Flower Shop Bundle, Dictionary Background stamp, the My Paper Pumpkin Try It Kit, and the Four You stamp set!

The Flower Shop Bundle listed on page 95 is one of several bundles Stampin' Up! is featuring in the New Catalog this year. Stamps are bundled with a coordinating punch or framelits to give the stamper a 15% discount when they buy the two products together! Look for the blue-framed bundles to get the item code and prices for a Wood-Mount Bundle or a Clear-Mount Bundle!

Flower shop 1

The colors are Sahara Sand, Blushing Bride, Whisper White, and Perfect Plum. I found my color combo by using the NEW Color Coach! I've never really been a Color Coach fan, but after fooling around with this one a bit, I think I'm going to be using it more and more all the time! I LOVE these colors together!

Sahara Sand
Blushing bride 
Perfect Plum

I made the flower centers with the Simply Pressed Clay and the "blossom" mold from the Buttons & Blossoms Simply Pressed Clay Molds. After pressing a little ball of the clay into the mold I popped it into the freezer for about 10-30 minutes (depending on how long it took me to remember to take it out, lol!), then popped the blossom out of the mold. After allowing it to air-dry for about 24 hours, I first spritzed them with a mixture of 91% rubbing alcohol and reinker, allowed that to dry for a few minutes, then used a Sponge Dauber to sponge on additional ink. They were then attached to the flower with a Glue Dot. The leaves are Pear Pizzazz and were punched with the Bird Builder Punch.

Flower shop 3

Inside I stamped a phrase from Really Good Greetings on page 38, then added another leaf branch and a couple of tiny flowers punched with the 4-petal flower punch in the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack. I used my White Gel Pen for the flower centers.

Well, that's all for today!  If you want to make this card, you can either visit my Online Store by clicking on the "Shop Now" button on the upper left side of this blog or RSVP to come to the SWOW class next weekend on the 12th or the 13th!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope the rest of your day Stampingrox!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Butterflies in Flight!

Stampin’ Up! Best of Butterflies in Flight!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! Happy 4th of July! Hope you have something fun on your agenda for today, and I hope you take time to be thankful for the freedom and liberty we all enjoy but take for granted!

Today's card uses a technique I've been  admiring for awhile but hadn't tried yet, and I'm not sure what its' official name is, but for this one I'm calling it "butterflies in flight"!

I stamped this butterfly from the Best of Butterflies stamp set in Jet Black StazOn all along the edge of this Whisper White Notecard. I added the colors of Strawberry Slush, Coastal Cabana, and Wisteria Wonder to the butterflies with a Sponge Dauber, then used my Paper Snips to cut out the edges of the notecard and partially around the butterflies to give the allusion of the butterflies "fluttering" off the page!

Butterfly hi 1

I stamped the "hi" from Regarding Dahlias, then added a butterfly for the dot in the "i" that was stamped with a Papillon Potpourri butterfly, and punched with the Bitty Butterfly Punch. I added a Basic Black grounding layer to the back of the notecard just to give it a little more pop and substance since Whisper White cardstock is a bit thin as a card base. I finished off the butterflies with small Basic Jewel Pearls.

Butterfly hi 2
 The inside layer has a Wisteria Wonder panel that has been embossed with the Modern Mosaic folder, and the greeting is from the 25th Anniversary set, Best of Greetings.

That's all for now. We are planning to have a get-together with some of Mark's family this evening. We missed the local fireworks because they were last Saturday out at the lake. I never have understood having fireworks early instead of ON the weekend the 4th is closest to, but they don't ask my opinion, so there you go.

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Teapot!

Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Teapot!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! I hope you are warm and dry today! I'm hoping for some drier (and a bit warmer) weather for awhile, we've had four straight days of rain around here and we are soaked!

Today I want to share a project that was demonstrated by Colleen Magness at the Demonstrator Share in Fiji, an adorable teapot made with Gingham Garden Designer Paper and the Oval Accents Die!

Gingham garden teapot
Isn't this just the MOST ADORABLE thing? I've put a teabag in it and added an Artisan Label-punched tag from the Label Love set, but a gift card would fit in here too!

We are making this little lovey at my SWOW Class on Friday and Saturday NEXT WEEK (the 12th & 13th) along with two more fun projects! RSVP to let me know you are coming, please!

That's all for now! I'm off to run some errands today, then I get to transport Maddie Kate to her Tumbling lesson this evening!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! (and dry!) day!
