Stampin’ Up! One of a Kind Wedding Shower!

Posted on April 13, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I know I’ve been mentioning the wedding shower we were throwing for a good family friend, and yesterday was the day! I have a few pictures to share of the day, including the decorations I was able to create using my Stampin’ Up! stuff!

First, let me say that while I did have a few ideas for decorating when the bride-to-be told me her wedding theme was “teal, red, burlap, & lace”, when we received the wedding invitation, my creativity was instantly sparked!

How cute is this? !! The bride wanted to keep it simple, so here’s what I came up with:

I painted the pint-sized Ball Mason jars first with a coat of tan acrylic paint, let it dry for awhile, then added a lightly-brushed on coat of a sort-of Pool Party blue. We had runners of burlap left over from Alisa’s baby shower almost two years ago (her theme was “Toys From Her Childhood”), then we added the Pool Party Mason Jars and scattered Cherry Cobbler blooms that we had punched with the Pansy Punch and the Petite Petals Punch.

Both blooms were curled slightly with a bone folder and then held together with a glue dot. Each of the two-layer blooms had a Pearl Basic Jewel in the center.

Each jar had a battery tea-light inside, and we added a heart punched with the Sweetheart Punch from Crumb Cake card stock that had been white heat-embossed with the Something Lacy Background. A little bit of Linen Thread was tied around the top of the jar, but the heart was actually attached with a Stampin’ Dimensional.

I also painted a few quart jars and adhered hearts embossed with the same Something Lacy background cut with one of the Hearts Collection Framelits Dies (which are the Weekly Deals at 25% off through the end of today)

I sent a picture of the invitation to Rhonda McLearin,the lady who makes our shower cakes. She coordinated the cake with everything else perfectly!

Overall I was very happy with the way all of it came together. I loved the rustic look of the painted canning jars and the colors turned out to be much softer than I originally anticipated.

Have a big event to plan, invite, or decorate? Here’s the link to shop in my online store:

And here are the current Weekly Deals, which expire tonight! (if you don’t want anything from this list, just wait till Tuesday. Stampin’ Up! puts out a fresh batch of Weekly Deals every Tuesday morning!)

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

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day Happy Easter!

Posted on April 5, 2015 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Happy Easter morning! I'm so thankful my Savior didn't stay in the tomb. His resurrection makes my hope of heaven a reality!

The theme for the March swap was to use a background stamp in your creation. Barbara Nagle used the Something Lacy background stamp with the Painted Petals set and the Butterflies Thinlets Dies (which are scheduled to be available to order again around April 8th)

Here's the supply list for Something Lacy:

138900 $13.95	137155 $17.95	138822 $24.95	138819 $32.95	137146 $23.95
137360 $24.95	129399 $2.95	119246 $4.95	100730 $8.50	133675 $6.95
131173 $5.95	131180 $5.95	135346 $7.95	104332 $6.95	103683 $4.95

Next, Tamie Ackerson used just a thin strip of Something Lacy to complement the Indescribable Gift bloom for a serene Mother's Day card:

Here's the supply list for Indescribable Gift:

138900 $13.95	137155 $17.95	138575 $15.95	137180 $20.95	127802 $26.95
111351 $6.95	126956 $5.95	102845 $9.95	133654 $14.95	120967 $3.50
133676 $6.95	100730 $8.50	102283 $7.50	109132 $4.95	129053 $29.95
132708 $5.95	129267 $14.95	124262 $2.95	119247 $4.95

I've lost name of the creator of this exquisite Pleasant Poppies card. Some names are attached to the card and some are a slip of paper inside which are easily lost. A blender pen was used wash the Lost Lagoon ink they stamped the image with to give it a soft, subtle color, then stamped a second image so they could cut out the first one to do a bit of the "Spotlighting" technique:

The only image I can't identify the set is the "thank you". I've searched all the catalogs and can't find it anywhere. Oh well, you can use any greeting with this lovely card!

Here's the supply list for Pleasant Poppies:

129499 $13.95	132061 $17.95	133679 $6.95	133644 $5.95	100730 $8.50
133672 $8.95	102845 $9.95	100425 $4.50	133751 $4.95	119855 $15.95
119246 $4.95	101610 $3.50	104332 $6.95	104430 $3.95

Finally,Brenda Hukriede stamped the Positively Chevron Background with Whisper White Craft ink onto Crumb Cake card stock, then punched a window with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch. Butterflies from the Beautiful Wings Embosslit and a greeting from Petite Pairs finishes off this crisp-and-clean creation!

Here's the supply list for the Positively Chevron card:

130496 $17.95	130499 $13.95	122497 $20.95	128706 $28.95	121043 $6.95
