Stampin’ Up! Clearance Rack Blitz!

Posted on December 14, 2012 by Carol Payne

Quick post this morning, Stampin' Up! just announced a new:

Stampin' Up! has added over 300 items to the clearance rack, some at 80% off!

Go to my Online Store to view and order:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

While you are here, take a look at this adorable little "Kiss-mas" tree I made from directions I found on Brenda Quintana's website:

How stinkin' adorable is this? Why the egg, you ask? So you can get an idea of just how miniature and cute this little tree treat is! It also fits perfectly inside one of our Clear Translucent Envelopes, perfect for gifting to teachers, co-workers, and friends!

That's all for now, I'm going Christmas shopping with my daughters today! Every year we take one whole day to shop together for our family's Christmas. Some years we've only just shopped and had a nice meal out without really getting much purchased in the way of gifts, but the day is really about being together!

See you tomorrow for another Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Tea For Two!

Posted on December 13, 2012 by Carol Payne

Attention! We are interrupting our regularly scheduled program of Christmas cards to show you this:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

Stinkin', awesome, cute, yes? I was trying to start on January classes and workshops, trying to get a bit ahead of the game, and was just not feeling any inspiration, so I decided to so some internet browsing. When I checked out Pinterest and found this darling little teapot, my imagination just took off! I owe a BIG thank you to Ellen Kemper, the original creator of this teapot, and for her brief but adequate illustration of how it is achieved! This card will be one of our punch projects for January, so I won't give you the directions for the teapot until after my classes are over, but I can tell you that most of the teapot is made with the Blossom Petals Builder Punch, unbelievable!

Unfortunately, Ellen is no longer a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and has not been creating with punches for some time now, but I hope she takes up her passion sometime again in the future! She is a great punch artist!

I will show you the inside of the card before I give you some details:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

The designer paper used on the card front and for the teapot is called "Tea for Two" and will be available on January 3rd in the new Occasions Catalog! The embossing folder used on the Pool Party layer is called Vine Street and will be free with a $50 order beginning on January 22nd, the first day of Sale-a-bration!

See that strip of that's sort of burlap-y looking? That's Natural 7/16" Trim Ribbon, also from the Occasions Catalog! I did a lot of sponging on this card with Crumb Cake ink, but I didn't have to sponge the ribbon, it comes that way-looking all grungy and vintage!

The "love" word is from Lovely Little Labels in the Annual Catalog, punched out with one of the Little Labels Pack punches.

Seems like I can't make a punch project without using the Owl Builder punch, and this one is no exception! Can you tell which parts of the teapot are punched with the Owl?

The inside flower and words are from You Are Loved, which is one of my favorite sets because of the great words in it! I colored the flower and stems with Calypso Coral and Lucky Limeade Stampin' Write markers, stamped off once on my grid sheet, huffed on the ink to re-moisten, then stamped on the lower corner of the layer to achieve the soft, gentle look.

That's all for today! I'm still working with new Occasions and SAB goodies I received in my pre-order last week! That's just ONE of the perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! More Merry Messages!

Posted on December 11, 2012 by Carol Payne

This card is a very simple, clean, vintage card that has been a favorite with my stamping friends this season. While "simple", "clean", and "vintage" don't really sound like they go together, this card really does fit all of those categories!

This card was a swap, but I'm not sure if it was a swap from Founder's or my monthly swap I participate in, but whoever created it really did an outstanding job! It's hard to do vintage without getting carried away with embellishments, but she held herself in and created the perfect combination when she embossed the Core'dinations Early Espresso cardstock with the Lacy Brocade Folder then lightly sanded it with the new Sanding System to expose the lighter core. The addition of the Champagne Glimmer paper cut with the Tasteful Trim Die and the Cherry Cobbler 3 1/2" Scalloped Tulle Ribbon make this card really pop but are easy to add with Tombow and Glue Dots!

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

She finished the front with a greeting from More Merry Messages, a new Christmas favorite of mine!

The inside is finished with another simple yet effective phrase, the single wood-mount stamp from the Holiday Catalog, Heart of Christmas!

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

That's all for today! Lots to do today. I only have one stamping party left before Christmas, for my good friend Tudy Hoffman at Nashville, IL, but of course there's lots to do just getting ready for Christmas with our family! I'm going to get my haircut today, something that is long overdue in more ways than one! ha! There's also a box of new stampin' goodies I have pre-ordered from the new spring Occasions catalog calling my name! I can hardly wait to start playing with them and sharing with you all!

Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’Up! Greetings of the Season and More Merry Messages!

Posted on November 19, 2012 by Carol Payne

Just a quick post today, my blog is finally back up and running! Although the projects I had posted prior to November 10th were still here, ALL the posts I had tried to posts since then were repeatedly lost! Everytime I tried to post, my blog platform (I don't totally understand it either) was throwing me out, back to my login, and the post would be gone! SO FRUSTRATING! I finally gave up for awhile, then emailed the blog people who told me I probably had a CORRUPT COOKIE???? WHAT are THOSE? Well, I had to wait for my son, Logan, to come home from college for Thanksgiving to show me how to FIND this cookie so we could delete it. Once we did that, voila! I am back to blogging!

Fun stuff going on with Stampin'Up! right now too, so I was really anxious about not being able to post! Check my side bars, my facebook page for all the details:

and my Stampin' Up! Online Store:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net (click on the Shop Now Button at the bottom, then click on the "Online Extravaganza"!)

Here's a card from my Holiday Card Bonanza earlier this week using the Greetings of the Season stamp set and the Snow Flurry Bigz Die. The new Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Folder was used on the card base.

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

We used designer paper from the Snow Festival Designer Series Paper on the front and a verse from "More Merry Messages" (a stamp set from the Annual Catalog which is on sale right now for 25% off!)

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

The Mitten Punch finished off the inside. Demonstrators just received our Occasions Catalog beginning January 3, 2013 and it includes a list of Holiday Catalog products that are being carried over, which means you will still be able to order them after the Holiday catalog is over and the Mitten Punch IS NOT ON THE CARRY OVER LIST! So if you were waiting to order this punch, don't, it could be gone before the Holiday Catalog is over, you never know!

That's all for today. Hopefully I will be back tomorrow with another post (as long as my cookies don't get corrupted again! lol!)

Have a Stampingrox! day!

Stampin’ Up!

Posted on November 5, 2012 by Carol Payne

I've been going back through my computer files and keep finding cards I never posted. Shame on me!

This fun card we made at one of the Christmas Card Club Classes earlier this season. We used the "Scentsational Season" Bundle of stamps and framelits to create this 3-D card!

We also used the "Festival of Prints" Designer Paper Stack from the Holiday Catalog and "Be of Good Cheer" Designer Paper from the Annual Catalog!

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

Punches from the "Merry Minis" Punch Pack were used for the star at the top of the tree and for the tiny mini-trees here on the inside:

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

All of the words used are from the "More Merry Messages" in the Annual Catalog!

I apologize for the late posting today. Lots going on, including a workshop tonight with Margaret Frazier in Salem, IL!

Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!

Stampin’ Up! Illuminate Watermark Glimmer Snowflake Soiree!

Posted on November 2, 2012 by Carol Payne

Good morning! My Punch/Technique Class is today, and I have the last Technique Card to show you! We are using the Illuminate Watermark Glimmer Stampin' Pad with the Snowflake Soiree set. It's actually a CASE of another card from our bi-monthly Demonstrator magazine, Stampin' Success!

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2012

I used the Stamp-a-majig for this one. I wanted to make sure I didn't lose the intricate detail of the snowflakes when I stamped the Illuminate Glimmer ink over the Marina Mist!

And inside, I kind of went crazy with the snowflakes, but I like it!

This is a 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" square card. It seemed to fit with the snowflakes, keeping them the focal point and not letting them get lost on the card.

That's all for today.Thanks for stopping by and have a Stampingrox! Day!
