Stampin’Up! Sunday Swap Day, Happy Birthday to Me!

Posted on August 24, 2014 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today is my birthday! yay! I'm so thankful for another year, my Savior and future home in heaven, my husband, my sweet kids and grandbabies, my stampin' friends, and paper crafting!

Donna and Jennifer surprised me with a cake when they came to class yesterday! They made me feel special, and the chocolate cake was yummy too! (although I'm gluten-free now, I couldn't resist having a little sliver! lol!)

Birthday cards have been arriving in the mail all week!

The first card to arrive was from my dear friend and former downline, Becky!

Becky used Blooming with Kindness to wish me a happy day!

Michelle used Hot Diggity Dog and the What's Up punch. She used a tiny piece of washi tape for the doggie's collar!

Angie sent this gorgeous folding card. She used Flower Shop, Life's Adventure Hostess, and Endless Birthday Wishes:

This card came in an over-sized envelope, of course!

Tudy sent me a lovely fall-themed creation:

And Lisa used Sketched Birthday with Confetti Celebration Designer Paper:

Thank you, friends, for making my birthday special!

Something else that would make my day special? Online Orders!

Go to my Online Store www.carolpayne.stampinup.net today ! All orders placed today with me will receive a special thank-you card and surprise from me!

That's all for now! Time to get ready for church!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day #4!

Posted on July 28, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! How are you on this last Sunday of July? I ready to share with you a few more swaps! Without further ado, here we go!

This card was created with 2013-2015 In Colors Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, and Strawberry Slush using the Sketched Birthday stamp set on page 13! Stampin' Up! gave everyone at Leadership in Orlando, FL this set, so I'm happy I have it!

The greeting is from the photopolymner stamp set, Bombs Away Birthday! This set is a go-to when I want a fun, irreverent, birthday greeting!

Next up is a card with the Tea Party stamp set (pg 35), Oval Collection Framelits, Beautifully Barouque Textured Impressions Folder, Tea Lace Doily, and Baked Brown Sugar 3/8" Stretch Ruffled Ribbon!

Close-up you can see the attention to detail of both Stampin' Up!'s stamp creation and the stamper's coloring of the image with Baked Brown Sugar and Marina Mist ink & a Blender Pen. The addition of the 4-Petal punched flowers from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and the Basic Jewel Pearl give dimension and vintage style!

Last-but-certainly-not-least, Susie Wood created this center easel card with the Kind & Cozy (page 82) and the Simply Stars (page 124) stamp sets! Don't worry about all of those Real Red punched stars, the Merry Minis Punch Pack is still available on the Holiday Carryover List! The "hello" is from the Four You stamp set on page 22!

That's all for now! I will be back tomorrow with more fun creations to show you and will have more swaps to show you next Sunday!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Sketched Birthday Again!

Posted on July 23, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! It's Tuesday, which means Oakley will be ONE WEEK OLD TODAY! It's been an amazing week! We are so thankful he is here, is healthy, and is doing well (and so is his Mommy)!

Today's swap card was created by Meg Wheeler. Meg used a Raspberry Ripple cardbase with layers of Birthday Basics Designer Paper and Bermuda Bay from the Brights Color Collection Designer Series Paper Stack. A bit of Coastal Cabana 3/8" Ruffle Stretch Ribbon add a festive touch behind the paper-pieced "Happy Birthday Cupcake" scalloped medallion.

Inside is the really fun part! The Big Shot Typeset Alphabet Bigz-cut "HAPPY" is attached to strips of acrylic Window Sheet inserted into the fold of the card so it pops up!

Meg used My Digital Studio to create the extra-large "Birthday" sentiment, then stamped the candle from Cycle Celebration.

That's all for now! Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up! Sketched Birthday Easel Card!

Posted on July 19, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! Happy Friday! I'm at Alisa & Cody's helping with Baby Oakley for the next few days, so I'm in Grammie heaven!

Today I have a card that I CASED from myself! I posted my first easel Chalkboarding card HERE. I take my samples to workshops and if someone wants to make a display card at an upcoming party, I do my best to bring it to them. This card is an example of my efforts to grant a group's request.

The card from the earlier post was made with stamps (inside & out) that have now retired, so I redid it with the current stamp set, Sketched Birthday. What do you think? I really love the little Real Red Brights Candy Dots in the three corners!

Here's a rundown of the products used:

Stamps: Sketched Birthday

Paper: Soft Suede, Basic Black, Real Red

Ink: Versamark, Soft Suede Classic

Accessories: Big Shot, Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder, Embossing Buddy, White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, 1 1/4" Scallop Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, Brights Candy Dots, White Gel Pen, ruler (not Stampin' Up!), Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack, Basic Jewel Rhinestones, Stampin' Trimmer

That's all for now! I'm loving my time cuddling with Oakley!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! In Colors Are a WOW!

Posted on June 2, 2013 by Carol Payne

Good morning! I had a fabulous day yesterday! All afternoon I had a houseful of good friends stamping, laughing, sharing, and shopping! It was a great day!

Today they are giving a shower for my daughter, Alisa's soon-coming baby Oakley! My brother and sister-in-law and my sister are coming down for it, so I am really excited! I don't get to see them very often, maybe only a couple of times a year, so it's a red-letter day when we get together!

I'm still fighting this crazy cough I've been having for the past two weeks. I'm thinking I may have to go back to the doctor for some stronger antibiotics. I even ran a fever again last night. That's gone this morning, so I hope it stays away today so I can go to the shower!

I know you are as tired of my sicki-ness as I am, so here's a beautiful illustration of our new In-Colors, followed by a few more virtual swaps:

This was created by Patty Bennet using our My Digital Studio program! Beautiful!

A fun "lollipop" card using all the new In-Colors and Label Love!

Sketched Birthday!

A sparkly Sketched Birthday!

I hope to shake this crazy cough soon and get back to creating for you!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!
