Stampin’ Up! Masculine Mountain Air!

Posted on October 14, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Today I'm sharing the card I created for my monthly mail-in swap. One of our choices for this month was to make a masculine birthday card, so I used the Mountain Air and Stacked Stone stamp sets with sentiments from Sweet Strawberry to create this:

After I decided the stamp set I wanted to use, then I looked through the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper pack and chose this textile design that is sort of Night of Navy but almost Basic Black or Basic Gray. I decided to use Basic Gray card stock and ink and Smoky Slate card stock for the Neutral to stamp the focal image and inside layer.

I cut the focal image layer with a Seasonal Labels die, as well as the Stacked Stone-stamped layer underneath it. I stamped the mountains first with Basic Gray, cleaned the stamp, then stamped just the tops of the mountains with White Craft Ink. I stamped the moon with White Craft as well, then added sparkle with my Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. The greeting is from Sweet Strawberry.

Inside I repeated the same stamping process for the mountains and moon, then stamped the sentiment from Sweet Strawberry, omitting the rest of the words, "you sweet thing" by cleaning off the ink with a baby wipe before stamping.

Tomorrow is Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop Day! Be sure to come back and check out my projects and the rest of the hop!

Hey there! It's time for the July Stampers Dozen Blog Hop! Our theme this month is "Sweet Summertime", and what could be sweeter than strawberries and peaches?

My first card features the Sweet Strawberry Bundle and the Give It A Whirl Dies!

The first sentiment I stamped in the window is from Sweet Strawberry!

Sentiment #2 is also from Sweet Strawberry!

I love that the Give It A Whirl dies include a little arrow to show how to turn the dial!

I added one of my favorite Bumblebee Trinkets to the Granny Apple Green layer I embellished with the Stitched Greenery die!

Inside I used a sentiment from Positive Thoughts!

The Give It A Whirl Dies have three different window dies to choose from.

I added a die-cut peach to the second sentiment.

Stampin’ Up! Sunday Swap Day January 17th!

Posted on January 17, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there! We are back around to Sunday, so of course I'm sharing some swaps! We had Lando's 6th birthday party yesterday afternoon, so I made sure I had this blog post finished before I went!

Today's swaps were all created with stamps from the 2021 Sale-a-bration brochure. Sale-a-bration is only two months long this time, so you will need to place your orders soon to get the goodies you want! The really great thing about Sale-a-bration this year is that there will be a second round of it in July/August with different stamps and accessories!

This first card was created by Jan Rodrian with the Darling Donkeys SAB stamp set and True Love Designer Series Paper from the Jan/June Mini Catalog. She combined Melon Mambo with Basic Black and Basic White, coloring the donkey and select blooms from the black-and-white paper with Stampin' Blends. She used last year's SAB Small Bloom Punch, which is now available to order from the Annual Catalog, with a Matte Black Dot found in the Love You Always Suite on page 11 of the Jan/June Mini.

Next, Linda Pagel also used Darling Donkeys for her swap, combining it with Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (another Sale-a-bration $50 spend choice).

Kelly Acheson combined the Sweet Strawberry bundle of stamps and punch from the mini catalog with the Berry Blessings/Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper bundle ($100 spend to choose) from the SAB brochure for her creation:

Rhonda Bassler also used the Sweet Strawberry Bundle with Berry Blessings/Berry Delightful DSP:

Finally, Kathy Johnson also chose the Sweet Strawberry bundle, using all of the Strawberry Builder Punch elements on her card along with the SAB Berry Delightful Designer Series paper. She used the Double Oval Punch found on page 65 of the January/June Mini Catalog to highlight the greeting.

Supplies to order:

Sweet Strawberry Bundle	Sweet Strawberry Photopolymer Stamp Set	Strawberry Builder Punch
Double Oval Punch	Small Bloom Punch

Stampin’ Up! Sweet Strawberry Sneak Peek!

Posted on January 1, 2021 by Carol Payne

Hey there and Happy New Year! I didn't stay up to ring in the new year because we are finally having our family Christmas today and I've been pacing myself all week getting ready. This COVID crap is just that, it makes you weak and tired, even if you don't have a bad case, which we are thankful it was mild. I'm finally getting an appetite and just finally generally feeling better. Now to just get in some mild exercise so I can get my strength back!

Today I have a fun card to share that I created with the Sweet Strawberry Bundle from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and the Berry Blessings Bundle you can choose for free when you spend $100 all at once beginning on January 5th through February 28th!

I created this card for a swap I signed up for but was unable to mail because I couldn't get out to the P.O. due to our quarantine. I also really didn't like to think that I might be mailing the virus along with my cards!

I love the coordination Stampin' Up! has provided with the Strawberry Builder Punch punching both the images in the Sweet Strawberry stamp set and the berries in the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper that is part of the $100 earn bundle in the 2021 Sale-a-bration brochure!

I stamped the berry top with Garden Green ink on Garden Green card stock, then punched with the Strawberry Builder punch to add to the berry.

I used one of my favorite punches, the Tailored Tag, to punch the greeting from Sweet Strawberry, as well as the Flirty Flamingo mat tag behind it. I added a single Cherry Cobbler Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewel for some bling. You can find them in the Annual Catalog!

The inside sentiment is from the Berry Blessings stamp set, which is paired with the Berry Delightful Designer Series paper in the Sale-a-bration Catalog. All you have to do to get this bundle is spend $100 before tax & shipping!
