Stampin’ Up! Martha Swifts’ Creations with A Nice Cuppa!

Stampin’ Up! Martha Swifts’ Creations with A Nice Cuppa!

Hey there! I am finishing the final touches for the "Be Mine" Stampin' Up!/Young Living Essential Oils Valentine Class the afternoon, so I have to be quick!

I always encourage my team to bring their latest creations to share at our meetings. Martha Swift always has beautiful ideas, and the cards she brought to the January meeting did not disappoint!

First, Martha created her shoebox swap with the " A Nice Cuppa" set:

Stampin_up_a_nice_cuppa_1
She had also created a Nice Cuppa Shaker card for display!

Stampin_up_a_nice_cuppa_2

When I first saw that the Cup & Kettle Framelits had a fork, knife, and spoon, I couldn't imagine what they would be used for, but now I see!

She offered two colors for the shoebox swap. I made this one in Basic Gray!

Stampin_up_a_nice_cuppa_4

She had us layer a cup cut from Botanical Gardens Vellum (a free Sale-a-bration item) over another cup for a fabulous look!

Stampin_up_a_nice_cuppa_5

One thing I learned, when applying vellum on a small item, you can completely cover the  vellum with SNAIL and it won't show through!

I love this sentiment from A Nice Cuppa:

Stampin_up_a_nice_cuppa_3

We cut the teapot from Silver Foil for the inside of Martha's swap:

Stampin_up_a_nice_cuppa_6

Martha brought a few more creations, but I will save them for another day.

Stampin’ Up! Bloomin’ Love Berry Basket of Cards!

Stampin’ Up! Bloomin’ Love Berry Basket of Cards!

Hey there! Today I have a set of cards in an adorable little Berry Basket using Bloomin' Love:

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_bloomin_love_2

I  CASED this project from Caroline Van Der Straaten, a demonstrator who participates in the Mediterranean Achiever's Blog Hop with me every month, with a few changes of my own. I used the "baby wipe inkpad" technique to stamp the leafy heart and the flower bouquets on the inside, then pressed my Versamark inkpad over the stamped heart, sprinkled with Iridescent Ice embossing Powder, and heated with my Heat Tool. This provides sparkle and intensifies the colors.

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_bloomin_love_3

Inside I continued the Valentine theme with a sentiment from Bloomin' Love. I lined the envelopes with Love Blossoms DSP:

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_bloomin_love_4

A sentiment from And Many More creates a wedding theme, and a bloom cut with the Bloomin' Heart Dies and Blushing Bride Glimmer lend more sparkle:

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_bloomin_love_5

A sentiment from Blessed by God compliments the theme perfectly:

Stampin_up_carolpaynestsmps_bloomin_love_6

Lastly, a friend card:

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_bloomin_love_7

Another sentiment from Blessed By God:

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_bloomin_love_8

Stampin’ Up! Teeny Tiny Treat Bag!

Stampin’ Up! Teeny Tiny Treat Bag!

Hey there! Today is the day! Ava, Cohen, and Jaxon are coming over to make their Minion Valentines! yay!

My husband said, "with four more grandkids warming up in the wings, what will do when you have to make 3,000?" Obviously, I need to design a simpler Valentine!

Today I was browsing through Pootles' blog again and found the directions to make this little bag!

Stampin_up_carolpaynestamps_teeny_tiny_wishes_1

I used Farmer's Market Designer Paper, the Sweetheart Punch, the heart  from Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack, Word Window, Ornate Tag Topper, Venetian Crochet Trim, and "happy valentine's day" from Teeny Tiny Wishes.

You can find Sam's directions HERE. The bags she show were created for a baby gift and a Christmas Advent Calendar, but the directions are the same!

I was considering this bag for my grand kids Valentines this year, and I miniaturized the bag even more (with a little mathematical help from my husband) I will show you the two tiny bags I made with those dimensions tomorrow and I will include my dimensions so you can make them, so come back tomorrow, ok?

After you have watched Sam's video to make today's bag, be sure to come back here to shop for your supplies in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day, Kind of Masculine!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day, Kind of Masculine!

Hey there! It's Sunday, which means it's time for swaps! yay! Today I'm catching up on some really nice masculine swaps that have been neglected in favor of Sale-a-bration and Valentine samples.

First, Jeanine Bush created this little cutie with the Zoo Babies and Gorgeous Grunge sets. She added Gold Metallic Thread for a bit of glitz!

Stampin_up_zoo_babies_1
Next, Rhonda Bassler used the wonderfully masculine set, Going Global, with the World Traveler Textured Impressions folder for her creation:

Stampin_up_going_global_1

Dena Tarkowski used Wilderness Awaits for her fun-fold  birthday card:

Stampin_up_wilderness_awaits_1

This card has a few surprises:

Stampin_up_wilderness_awaits_2

Pretty neat!

Stampin_up_wilderness_awaits_3

Sharon Tong-Robinson used Amazing Birthday with the Boho Chic Textured Impressions folder and Lots of Labels framelits for her unusual fun-fold:

Stampin_up_amazing_birthday_1

It stands and folds at the same time!

Stampin_up_amazing_birthday_2

Finally, Ann  Betty turned her Corner-fold card a little differently to create a striking masculine creation with the Traveler stamp set and Go Wild Designer Paper:

Stampin_up_traveler_1

She used the bold "happy birthday" from Watercolor Words for the inside:

Stampin_up_traveler_2
