Stampin’ Up! Owl Anniversary!

Stampin’ Up! Owl Anniversary!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! Yesterday was a fun day! I went to my aunt & uncles 60th Wedding Anniversary Celebration, and I was able to see relatives I haven't seen in years, talk & laugh with my favorite cousins, and see pictures of my ancestors I had never seen before!

I took several pictures of the pictures (I figure that's the only way I will ever be able to have copies, right?) and I want to share a few of those with you at a later date (some have interesting stories), but today I want to share the card I made for the celebrated couple:

Anniversary 1

This card is a souped-up version of one of the cards we made at my "Best of" class this past Friday. Not too hard to figure out, the bow for her hair was made with 2 of the hearts from the Owl Builder Punch and his bow-tie was made with the cut off feet from the same punch!

Anniversary 2

The inside phrase is from the Best of Brides & Babies 25th Anniversary Collection set, I added the "both" with my Basic Black marker.

Anniversary 3

I finished off the envelope with the Fancy Fan folder embossing the flap and a Secret Garden leaf framelit.

That's all for now! I'm off to Sunday morning church!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Harvest Blessings Birthday!

Stampin’Up! Harvest Blessings Birthday!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good Morning! Today I am headed to my Aunt & Uncle's 60th Anniversary Celebration! I am also taking three of my grandkids with me; Ava, Cohen, and Jaxon! I am excited to show them off to relatives I rarely get to see! It's about a 3 hour drive north to Hartsburg, Illinois (and a 3 hour drive back!) so it's a big day ahead of us!

Today I want to show you this card we made at my "Best Of" class yesterday, using Harvest Blessings, Best of Birthdays, and the water drops stamp from the My Paper Pumpkin Try-it Kit! This is a 4 1/4" square card. I  like to use this size sometimes just to do something a little different from the regular 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"!

Tractor 1

The card base is Baked Brown Sugar, layered with Marina Mist, then Soft Sky. All stamping and sponging was done with Baked Brown Sugar (isn't that just the YUMMIEST name?) ink and we added a Baked Brown Sugar Candy Dot in the lower right corner. This was my first time using a Candy Dot, and I think I'm in love! They are so easy to lift off the packaging with a Paper Piercing Tool, and simple to apply with the adhesive already on them! FUN!

After stamping and sponging we also embossed the top layer with the Chevron Textured Impressions Folder. I think it gives the look and feel of tractor-tire tread, what do you think?

Tractor 2

Finally, on the inside we stamped with a phrase from the Bring On the Cake stamp set, along with the pumpkin/apple basket stamp and the "you are the seed . . ." stamp from Harvest Blessings.

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

Stampin’Up! Gingham Garden Suite Scrapbook Pages from Fiji!

Stampin’Up! Gingham Garden Suite Scrapbook Pages from Fiji!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! I'm back today with the scrapbook pages that were showcased on the Gingham Garden Suite inspiration board in Fiji!


Page 1

Gingham Garden Designer Paper and Washi Tape combine with lots of white space and Kind & Cozy stamp set for the one above!


Page 2

Even more white space for this one, but splatter stamping with the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set fills in nicely. Little banners of Gingham Garden paper and Washi Tape accents add interst without taking away from the picture focals.


Page 2 one

A close-up of the added embellishments feature a Silver Glimmer Paper "2" cut with the Typeset Alphabet Bigz Dies, some fussy-cut Gingham Garden paper, and a Vintage Faceted Designer Button.


Page 2 two
The gingham-ring stamp from Kind & Cozy makes the perfect mat layer for this cute little inset picture, embellished with a Silver Glimmer Paper ampersand, also from the Typeset Alphabet Bigz Dies. "you" is also a Melon Mambo Stampin' Write Marker partially-inked stamp from Kind & Cozy.

Well, that's all of the Gingham Garden Suite samples. There are no more! Tomorrow I will start a series of my June monthly swaps!

Until then, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Yes Mam’s Shoebox Swap Card #6!

Stampin’Up! Yes Mam’s Shoebox Swap Card #6!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! Today's final Shoebox Swap card is brought to you by Tudy Hoffman!

Tudy chose Primrose Petals, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, and Very Vanilla for her cardstock colors. The bottom edge of the Primrose Petals layer was embossed with one of the Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Folders. The stamp set she used was Papaya Collage, a stamp set I purchased at the beginning of the last catalog but have never really used much-I think I'm inspired! The bird stamp was inked using Early Espresso, Soft Suede and Primrose Petals Stampin' Write Markers, the and gingko-like branches were stamped with Gumball Green. Victoria Crochet Trim added to the Crumb Cake helps to add a vintage look. The edges of the Very Vanilla Top Note layer were sponged with Soft Suede ink. The new Very Vanilla Vintage Button was threaded with a Linen Thread bow, then added to the card with a Glue Dot.

Tudy 1

A full Very Vanilla Top Note was used on the inside, stamped with the Papaya Collage images and sponged again with Soft Suede ink.

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

Stampin’Up! Yes Mam’s! Shoebox Swap Card #3, #4, & #5!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Good morning! I have THREE card ideas for you today, brought to you by Martha Swift, Kristen Hoffman, and Sherry Chrisman!

Martha's card uses the yummy color combo of Strawberry Slush and Whisper White! Martha embossed the Strawberry Slush layer with the Stripes Textured Impressions Folder, punched the lower edge with the Scallop Edge Border Punch, then added Gingham Garden Designer Paper cut with the Ovals Collection Framelits! Inside the oval opening we stamped the "Hello" from Lacy & Lovely with Basic Gray ink, then added a Strawberry Slush-stamped flower from Secret Garden cut with one of the Secret Garden Framelits. A Primrose Petals In-Color Dahlia coordinates wonderfully with the Strawberry Slush color! I love the crisp, clean lines of this card!

Martha 1

One of my newest recruits, Kristen, designed this quick-and-easy card using a set I've always admired but never have gotten around to ordering, Bootiful Occasions! Kristen chose Midnight Muse and Cherry Cobbler for her colors. The Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Seam Binding ribbon really pulls this simple design together!

Kristen

Sherry Chrisman's design combines  the beautiful Swallowtail butterfly stamp with Crisp Cantaloupe ink! For a bit of bling she heat-embossed the phrase from Million & One with Silver Embossing Powder on Brushed Silver cardstock and added one tiny Basic Jewel Rhinestone. The edges of this layer were cut with the Large Scallop Edgelit. Brushed Silver-punched Bitty Butterflies finish this card off beautifully!

Sherry 1

That's all for today! I will be back tomorrow with one more Shoebox Swap creation by Tudy Hoffman!

Hope your day Stampingrox!
