Stampin’ Up! Colorblocked Wetlands!

Stampin’ Up! Colorblocked Wetlands!

Hey there! Colorblocking is a fun technique! I created a sunset!

Stampin_up_kinda_eclectic_colorblock_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

Starting with a Calypso Coral base, I layered on Peekaboo Peach. For the colorblocking, I started with Calypso Coral, then Peekaboo Peach and So Saffron. I stamped the Kinda Eclectic sunburst with Versamark before adding Pool Party and Tip Top Taupe.

Stampin_up_wetlands_colorblocking_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

I stamped the birdies before I embossed with the Seaside folder.

Stampin_up_wetlands_colorblocking_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

I stamped "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" with Thoughtful Banners (pg 73) and Basic Gray Archival ink. I punched with the Classic Label Punch.

Inside a phrase from Suite Sayings:

Stampin_up_wetlands_colorblocking_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy

My next creation was heat embossed with Copper powder!

Stampin_up_wetlands_colorblocking_copper_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

I sponged the edges with Tip Top Taupe for more depth.

Stampin_up_wetlands_colorblocking_copper_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

Again, all stamping and heat-embossing MUST be done BEFORE  dry embossing with the Big Shot!

Another sentiment from Suite Sayings:

Island Indigo is the card base here  and the only sentiment from Kinda Eclectic:

Stampin_up_kinda-eclectic_colorblocking_carolpaynesamps1 - Copy

I added a single So Saffron star from the Regals Enamel Shapes to the Banner Triple punched greeting.

Suite Sayings again inside. I sponged the tips of the sun rays with Calypso Coral ink before stamping.

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Fiesta Again!

Stampin’ Up! Birthday Fiesta Again!

Hey there! I've been working on  my Birthday Fiesta Card Class scheduled in a few weeks, so I had to make another card with the Birthday Fiesta set!

I decided to use the color-blocking technique that I'm loving right now. It's a great way to show off several prints in the Festive Birthday Designer Series Paper!

I LOVE the Festive Textured Impressions folder, so after I adhered the designer paper to the black layer I ran it all through the Big Shot.

Stampin_up_birthday_fiesta_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

After stamping the greeting and cutting out with an Layering Ovals Die, I decided to add a llama to "peek" up around the words, so I stamped him with Crumb Cake ink. I layered this onto a scalloped black oval, also cut with a Layering Ovals Die,  then I pierced every scallop with my Paper-Piercing Tool and Stampin' Pierce Mat.

Stampin_up_birthday_fiesta_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

Since I don't speak Spanish I wasn't familiar with the word "manana", but instinct told me it meant "tomorrow", and I was right! So "Fiesta like there's no tomorrow (manana)" makes sense for a birthday greeting, doesn't it?!

Stampin_up_birthday_fiesta_carolpaynestamps6 - Copy

I couldn't resist the llama peeking again! I love him!

Stampin’ Up! Rich Razzleberry Touches of Texture!

Stampin’ Up! Rich Razzleberry Touches of Texture!

Hey there! Just a few more bleach cards left to share! Are you sick of this technique yet? I hope not! I hope you are inspired to give it a try!

For today's card I stamped bleach on Rich Razzleberry card stock and found Sweet Sugarplum!

Stampin_up_touches_of_texture_bleach_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

I truly think this Sweet Sugarplum/Rich Razzleberry color combo is my favorite! Do you ever get on a "color kick"? I think I'm on this one right now! After stamping with bleach, I embossed with the new Sparkle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.

Stampin_up_touches_of_texture_bleach_carolpaynestamps6 - Copy

We don't have Rich Razzleberry embossing powder, but you can emboss classic stamped ink when you work quickly after stamping to sprinkle with Clear embossing powder and heat.

You have a little extra time to get the clear powder on ink you've stamped on Vellum. After heating I punched with the Decorative Label Punch. I used strategically placed glue dots to adhere to the card. The sentiment is from Mixed Borders.

Stampin_up_touches_of_texture_bleach_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy

I tied Sweet Sugarplum 3/8" Ruched Ribbon in a bow for the finishing touch.

Stampin_up_touches_of_texture_bleach_carolpaynestamps5 - Copy

Inside I stamped another Touches of Texture image and a sentiment from Birthday Blossoms.

Stampin’ Up! More Bleach!

Stampin’ Up! More Bleach!

Hey there! I made a quick video of how to do the bleach technique over the weekend, but it's only posted on my private Facebook group, Carol Payne's Stampers, so if you aren't a member there, you can't see it. I filmed it with my phone, but haven't figured out how to download it to my computer. Maybe I can using the tether-thingy that came with the phone, but of course, that would require FINDING the tether. I'm sure I've put it away somewhere "safe". sigh.

  Stampin_up_touches_of_texture_bleach_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

For this card I stamped the Touches of Texture with bleach on Mint Macaron card stock and it came out Pool Party, so that's what I used for my card base. I stamped the "sand" stamp from Touches of Texture with Mint Macaron, and added a greeting from Badges & Banners heat-embossed on Vellum and punched with the Duet Banner Punch. I tied a knot in a length of Mint Macaron 3/8" Sheer Linen Ribbon to bring it all together.

Stampin_up_touches_of_texture_bleach_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

Inside I added a layer of Mint Macaron, then a layer of Whisper White that I stamped with a phrase from Picture Perfect and the bloom from the front in Mint Macaron.

Stampin’ Up! Picture Perfect Father’s Day!

Stampin’ Up! Picture Perfect Father’s Day!

Hey there! Happy Father's Day! My daddy has been gone since 1994, but it's still a special day because of my sweetheart, Mark. He's daddy to my six babies, and Papa to all 8 and 6/9th's grandbabies. Married for almost 39 years, I can't imagine doing this life with anyone else. He's my rock and my best friend!

Of course, it's my joy to make his card!

Stampin_up_picture_perfect_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy

I combined the starfish from Picture Perfect with a sentiment from Guy Greetings. I used new Serene Scenery designer paper for the front and Layering Squares Framelits to cut the window and the layered squares for the greeting.

Stampin_up_picture_perfect_carolpaynestamps2 - Copy

 I sponged all of the edges of everything with Soft Suede ink. The Serene Scenery paper already was distressed-looking, but I added more!

Stampin_up_picture_perfect_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy

 I had an idea to use bleach on So Saffron card stock and then stamp over it with the starfish, but I decided to use an unbleached So Saffron one instead. Of course, well sponged!

I added a few loops of Linen Thread behind it, then colored pearls with a gold permanent marker.

Stampin_up_picture_perfect_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy

 This fun-fold is just so different than anything I've tried before, but so easy!
