Stampin Up! Sunday Swap Day November 4th!

Posted on November 4, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there and welcome to the first Sunday Swap Day of November! I'm leaving for the Stampin' Up! 30th Anniversary OnStage Event in Orlando, Florida in less than two days! I still have packing and swap creation to do! Eeeek! It's a long car ride( 6 of us in my team member's van, plus 3 flying), so I plan to finish them on the way. Tomorrow is a Darcy day, but this is doable!

A big reason I swap every month is because I love sharing swaps with you! Today's are with Limited-Edition Snow is Glistening stamps and Snowfall Thinlets. Have you ordered yours yet? They're only while-supplies-last, so don't wait!

First, Susan Legits used an AquaPainter to add bold strokes of Bermuda Bay and Blueberry Bushel to Watercolor Paper to create a background for the Snowfall Thinlets snowflakes.

She adhered the snowflake to the watercolor background with a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet applied to the card stock BEFORE cutting with the Snowfall Thinlet.

Next, an anonymous stamper used the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to emboss wax paper to create the Wax Paper Resist technique on the Bermuda Bay background. She also added a Limited-Edition Snowflake Trinket to the center.

Just lovely!

Finally, Susie Wood used a new technique, Frosted Clear Block, with Prussian Blue Brusho Crystal Colour to create this gorgeous background!

I can't wait to try this one!

Stampin’ Up! Snowfall Thinlets!

Posted on November 2, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I'm getting ready for a craft fair tomorrow, and while I haven't had as much time to get ready as I would like, I have been able to use the new Snowfall Thinlets to embellish another clear glass block! I cut Silver and Sparkle Glimmer Paper and retired Red Glimmer to create this:

This block is larger than the one I shared with you yesterday, measuring 8" x 8", I cut the Vellum card stock 6 1/4" x 6 1/4" so most of it would be embossed with the Scattered Sequins Dynamic Textured Impressions folder. I cut the all of the snowflakes with the Limited-Edition Snowfall Thinlets. I cut most of the snowflakes from Silver Glimmer Paper, but I cut one from Sparkle Glimmer to layer on top of the largest snowflake. All of the snowflakes and the greeting were cut with a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet already on the back so all I had to do was remove the protective backing to expose the adhesive and stick on the vellum!

The Snowfall Thinlets are 20 dies, all coordinating with both the Snow is Glistening and Happiness Surrounds stamp sets which are also Limited-Edition through November 30th or while supplies last! "Merry" was cut with a Merry Christmas Thinlet.

Lights on! The bow is from the craft store on a roll. I used about 56 inches of the wire-edged ribbon to wrap the block and tie the simple bow. I put a string of 35 clear lights inside.

Flat. These are quick and fun to make!

The supply list:

Snowfall Thinlits Dies [149692]	Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies [147912]	Vellum 8-1/2" X 11" Card Stock [101856]
Scattered Sequins Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder [145649]	Silver Glimmer Paper [146960]	Sparkle Glimmer Paper [146957]
Joyous Noel 6" X 6" Glimmer Paper [147817]	Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets [144106]	Glue Dots [103683]

Stampin’ Up! Faux Diamond Dust!

Posted on October 29, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today's card was created with the Faux Diamond Dust technique with the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set and a sneak peek of new stamps and dies that will only be available to order in November!

I stamped a white layer with the background stamps from Beautiful Blizzard with stamped-off Coastal Cabana, then stamped full-strength Coastal Cabana snowflakes.

I adhered a Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet, removing the remaining protective layer to expose the stickiness.

Next step I cut snowflakes with limited-edition Snowfall Thinlets from limited-edition White Velvet Sheets! This paper is so soft and pretty!

After adhering the snowflakes with Stampin' Dimensionals, I sprinkled the stickiness with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter for the "Faux Diamond Dust" effect!

The die-cut snowflakes are more rounded and full than when cut from regular Whisper White card stock!

I added a rhinestone to the center of each snowflake for a tad more bling!

I cut a snippet of a Stampin' Dimensional to adhere the tiniest snowflake!

I stamped the Beautiful Blizzard Greeting with Coastal Cabana on a strip of white, then used the Darling Label Punch to decorate the corners. I adhered to a strip of Coastal Cabana before adhering to the card front with dimensionals.

The inside sentiment and image are both from Snow is Glistening, which will be available to order on November 1st!

I really really love how Stampin' Up! creates sentiments from different sets that will coordinate with each other!

This card is my first one playing with Snow is Glistening. I'm looking forward to using it to make more!
