Stampin’ Up! Moroccan Nights!

Stampin’ Up! Moroccan Nights!

Hey there! I finally played with my Morroccan Nights to make this with the Faux Diamonds technique!

Stampin_up_moroccan_nights_carolpayenestamps1

This card didn't end up looking anything like what I originally planned, but I like this better! I started stamping the medallion and lantern with Black StazOn ink on a white, sponging with Peekaboo Peach, Flirty Flamingo, and Emerald Envy. I HATED it. I almost threw it in the trash, but decided to try the Faux Diamonds technique and it was saved!

Stampin_up_moroccan_nights_carolpaynestamps2

Faux Diamonds Technique:  Press a Versamark pad all over the panel. Cover with Heat & Stick Powder. Heat from the underside with a Heat Tool.  Heat a fourth of the panel at a time,  just until the powder melts. Cover with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter. Tap off  excess glitter. Heat glittered area again from underneath before moving to the next section to melt the powder. When entire panel is covered with glitter, give it a quick blast on top to heat-set.

I adhered to  a Basic Black panel embossed with the Festive Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, then adhered to a Bermuda Bay panel with dimensionals. The greeting is from Best Birds.

I used the same sequence of layers inside, stamping with black ink.

Stampin’ Up! Gift Card Envelope Pirate Ship!

Hey there! I try to make a special card for each of my grandchildren's birthdays, so when Oakley had his 3rd birthday, I made his card to match his party plates!

Stampin_up_gift_card_envelope_pirate_ship_carolpaynestamps_1

The plate:

Stampin_up_oakleys_3_birthday_carolpaynestamps

I used the Gift Card Envelope and Trims Die to make the body of the ship:
Stampin_up_gift_card_envelope_pirate_ship_carolpaynestamps3

I cut off one long and one short side of the envelope for the two ship levels:
Stampin_up_gift_card_envelope_pirate_ship_carolpaynestamps4

I embossed with the Woodgrain folder for texture:
Stampin_up_gift_card_envelope_pirate_ship_carolpaynestamps5
I created the skull and cross bones with the Owl Builder Punch and some thin hand-cut strips.

Stampin_up_gift_card_envelope_pirate_ship_carolpaynestamps2

I made matching gift cards for Logan and Ben to give him money:

Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Achiever’s Blog Hop, Thoughtful Branches Bundle!

Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Achiever’s Blog Hop, Thoughtful Branches Bundle!

GV Blog Header
Hey there! Welcome to the Grand Vacation Achievers Blog Hop for July! This month our theme is the Thoughtful Branches Bundle. We’re so excited to be able to show you these amazing BRAND NEW products that you can purchase on August 2, 2016!
You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog – Carol Payne, or may have come from the person previous to me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects. At the moment you are visiting Carol Payne.
For my creation, I used a Crumb Cake Notecard & Envelope for a quick and easy card. I decided to just feature the stamp set, not the coordinating Beautiful Branches Framelits, because I know not everyone has a Big Shot and sometimes it’s hard to find cards that don’t use at least one element from it.
  Stampin_up_thoughtful_branches_carolpaynestamps1 - Copy
I used the Baby Wipe Technique to quickly ink the foliage of the tree with Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze, and Always Artichoke. The stamps are created to fit together perfectly. This large foliage stamp has a “tab” on the bottom so you know which way to stamp so the tree trunk will fit inside!
Stampin_up_thoughtful_branches_carolpaynestamps3 - Copy
I frayed the edges of 5/8″ Burlap ribbon to add behind the Copper-embossed, hand-cut sentiment. I stamped-off the Cajun Craze leaf on scrap paper before stamping on the Very Vanilla, rubbed it with the Embossing Buddy to make sure the ink was dry, stamped the sentiment with Versamark, sprinkled with Copper Embossing Powder, and heated with my Heat Tool. I hand-cut the sentiment with my Paper Snips, leaving a bit of vanilla edge for smoothness.
  Stampin_up_thoughtful_branches_carolpaynestamps4 - Copy
Inside I used one of my favorite Bible verses, Isaiah 41:10, a verse from God’s word that always speaks to my heart!
Stampin_up_thoughtful_branches_carolpaynestamps5 - Copy
Thanks for taking part in our blog hop! Remember, currently you are at my blog – Carol Payne, so check the blog hop line up list below to see who is next in line!

If you are new to stamping, live in the U.S., and don’t currently have a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, I would love to help you!

Stampin’ Up! My Hero!

Stampin’ Up! My Hero!

Hey there! I have a short post this morning, but I will have another at 4 p.m. today when the Mediterranean Achiever's Blog Hop starts hopping! Our theme this month is the Limited Edition set, Thoughtful Branches!

Right now I have a super easy card created for a hostess who asked for cards without the Big Shot. Most of my cards use something Big Shot – an embossing folder, or a greeting cut with a framelit – but I went "old school"to make card with the My Hero Ronald McDonald House set:

Stampin_up_my_hero_carolpaynestamps1

My Hero is a collection of cute stamps for several holidays of the year, and Stampin' Up! will donate $3 from each one sold to the Ronald McDonald House Charities! I used Dapper Denim, Whisper White, and Silver Glimmer paper for sparkle. The Dapper Denim striped paper from the 2016-2018 In Color Designer Paper Stack coordinates perfectly.

I punched the "You Are My #1 HERO" with the Best Badge Punch.

My camera is an older point-and-shoot, and I think I've about worn it out. This is the only picture I have of this card!

Please do come back this afternoon or tomorrow and take the hop!

Until then, use this supply list to shop in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
