Stampin’ Up! Sweet Sorbet Secret Garden in a Box!

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Sorbet Secret Garden in a Box!

Hey there! I've been working on projects for my Sale-a-bration Kick-off and played around with a new card construction that has been making the blog rounds lately-a card-in-a-box! Lookie:

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_1

Isn't it just the cutest thing?

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_2

I used Sweet Sorbet Designer Paper from the Sale-a-bration brochure, Secret Garden stamps and framelits, window sheets, the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch, Neutrals and Subtles Candy Dots, Petite Petals  and Peite Pairs stamps and Petite Petals punch!

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_3

The coolest thing about this card is it folds flat and fits perfectly inside one of our regular medium envelopes!

Stampin_up_card_in_a_box_4

All the recepient has to do is take it out of the envelope and set it open. Ta da! Instant happy!

Well, that's all for now. I have one more hostess party on Thursday before my SAB kick-off on Friday. I'm ready for Thursday, but still have a few things to prep for Friday. So I'm off to bed a bit earlier than my norm so I can pop up in the a.m. and get going!

To order at least $50 worth of Stampin' Up! products and be able to choose the yummy Sweet Sorbet paper as your free gift, just click HERE to go to my Online Store!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! 11% Off For My 11th Anniversary!

Stampin’ Up! 11% Off For My 11th Anniversary!

Hey there! Today is my 11th Anniversary as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator! yay!

I knew when I read the Stampin' Up! recruit brochure in the fall of 2002 that Stampin' Up! might be a good "fit" for me because I got a warm, fuzzy feeling in the bottom of my tummy. Ever get those? For me they usually signal I need to pay attention to whatever is causing this pleasant sensation: a good book, an inspiring movie, a fun day with my family. Stampin' Up! isn't my first priority, God and my family take the first two spots, but after that Stampin' Up! IS one of my favorite things!

Anyway, since today is my 11th Anniversary, and it is also the 11th of November, I decided to give all of my stamping friends an 11% discount on anything they order TODAY ONLY!

You will have to contact me direct at 618-237-6281 or carol@carolpaynestamps.com to place your order. This order can't be placed online to take advantage of the discount. You can also Facebook message me: Carol Payne Stamps

Just go to my website: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net to check out the catalogs (if you don't have them, LET ME KNOW and I can pop them in the mail to you!)

This offer expires at Midnight CDT tonight!

Now, for a little eye-candy, here's a gorgeous card created by my downline, Linda Reaney:

Stampin_up_secret_garden_watercolor
Linda found inspiration from a card on Pinterest, then pulled stamps from several Stampin' Up! stamps set to create her version!

So far I've identified Secret Garden, Oh Hello, World Treasures, Fabulous Florets, En Francais, Stippled Blossoms, and Field Flowers. There may be more, what do you see?

Linda finished off her card with some Crumb Cake ribbon and a Very Vanilla Vintage Designer Button. Lovely!

Today is also the last day for this Weekly Deal:

Stampin’ Up! NEW Sales Promotions are Really Cookin’!

Stampin’ Up! NEW Sales Promotions are Really Cookin’!

Hey there, how are you today? I'm a bit under the weather. I think my semi-annual sinus infection is brewing, and yesterday I sprained my ankle just a bit. How do you sprain your ankle "a bit"? Well, apparently you can do that. I stepped off my deck steps the wrong way yesterday morning and found myself on the ground. At first I didn't think I was going to be able to get up, so I called my husband who had just pulled out of the drive way, but the cold ground was a very strong motivation to overcome the pain in my ankle and get my self up! By the time my husband had turned the grain truck he was driving around and came back I had myself in the car. Long story short, my ankle is swollen some this morning but does not hurt to the touch and I can pretty much put my weight on it, so I don't think it needs medical attention.

Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden Window Card!

Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden Window Card!

Good morning! I am so happy today is the third Thursday of the month! It means I get to stamp with my "Crafty Chix" group at Bondo's Pizza in Galatia!

A few months ago I received the card I am showing you today in my monthly swap. Unfortunately, since then I have lost the creators name, I am sorry!

The Chix like to choose their next months' projects from my display, and this is one of the cards they chose to make today using the Secret Garden stamp set and matching framelits:


Secret Garden window 1
We will be using the "Whitewash" Technique in addition to punches, as well as the new Circle Collection Framelits and the Hexagon Textured Impressions Folder!

Here are some quick instructions to do the Whitewash Technique

Whitewash Coloring

1. Stamp
image with Versamark ink on solid-color cardstock. Heat Emboss with Embossing
Powder.

 


Whitewash 3

 

 

 

2. Squeeze Whisper White Craft Pad to deposit ink in lid. Open pad. Pick
up ink from lid with
AquaPainter.
“Wash” color over embossed image. Allow to air-dry or dry with Heat Tool.

Whitewash 4

3. Squeeze lid
of a Classic inkpad color of choice. Open pad. Pick up ink from lid with
Blender Pen. Apply ink to “white-washed” areas as desired. Add more intense ink
color with matching Stampin’ Write Marker.


Whitewash 5

 

Here's the class handout. You can dowload and print it if you wish!

That's all for now! If you have any questions, please let me know!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden Suspension Card!

Stampin’ Up! Secret Garden Suspension Card!

Good Monday morning! I know a lot of people dread Mondays, and I must admit when I had a full-time day-job I dreaded Mondays too, but now that I am a full-time Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, that Sunday-night-a-little-bit-sick-to-my-stomach feeling is no more and I actually look forward to Mondays! A fresh new week, full of promise, full of energy, full of TIME to accomplish so much! The whole tone of my week is set by how much I accomplish on Monday!

Right now I'm still at Alisa's, helping her regain her strength after Oakley's birth and mentoring her with the process of learning how to care for a newborn, and I'm loving it. I will still be here for a few more days, so I'm savoring every chance I get to cuddle on this sweet little man!

That said, obviously I have had zero time to create anything new, and although I have TONS of ideas running through my head right now, they will just have to wait!

Until I get back to stamping I will have to rely on a few more swap pictures from my collection. Today's card is from a second monthly swap I have joined, sponsored by my good friend, Meg Wheeler!

This card was created by one of the girls in her downline. I don't have the card with me here at Alisa's so I can't give you the creator's name, but when I get home I will try to remember to update this post with that info.

This card is a suspension card using the Secret Garden stamps and framelits, the Ovals Collection Framelits, Label Love stamps and Artisan Label punch:

Secret garden suspension

Cardstock:Gumball Green, Whisper White

Designer Paper: Epic Day This & That

Ink: Gumball Green, Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral

Accessory: Linen Thread

That's all for now! Hope your day Stampingrox! I know mine will with Oakley to cuddle!

There's still time to take advantage of the B3G1F Designer Paper Special! Go to my online store:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

to place your order today!

Order three packages of any of our current $10.95 Designer Series Paper (not including the Quatrafancy or Naturals Composition), choose a 4th package for free!
