Stampin’ Up! Nothing Sweeter Winter Birthday!

Stampin’ Up! Nothing Sweeter Winter Birthday!

Hey there! After I CASEd the Nothing Sweeter "Shop By Project" card from my online store, it really lit my creative fire! I have three more cards to share with you this week, starting with this one for a winter Birthday!

Stampin_up_nothing_sweeter_carolpaynestamps1

I used a clean and fresh color combo of Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, and Whisper White. I embossed the white background layer with the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder for a festive, almost "frosting" look!

Stampin_up_nothing_sweeter_carolpaynestamps2

 The present stamps is two separate images. I stamped the ink once on scrap paper before stamping on a white piece of card stock, then I stamped the darker outline, the two middle "ribbon" lines, and the squiggle. Adding rhinestones is the perfect finishing touch!

Stampin_up_nothing_sweeter_carolpaynestamps3

 I repeated the same process (stamping-off for the solid image, full strength for the outline) with Melon Mambo for the center present. I masked the center before stamping the stars.

This present was the easiest. I stamped off the solid image, stamped the outlines, then stamped the snowflake center. I finished with a little masking to stamp the edges and a rhinestone in the center.

Stampin_up_nothing_sweeter_carolpaynestamps5

 I chose a greeting from Another Wonderful Year, stamping first in Bermuda Bay and then in Melon Mambo. I cut out "CELEBRATE" with my Paper Snips to adhere to the phrase.

Stampin_up_nothing_sweeter_carolpaynestamps6

 Inside I used a sentiment from Lift Me Up.

 I remembered to stamp my envelope too!

Stampin Up! Sunday Swap Day November 4th!

Stampin Up! Sunday Swap Day November 4th!

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.

Stampin_up_snow_is_glistening_carolpaynestamps1

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

Stampin_up_snow_is_glistening_carolpaynestamps2

 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.

Stampin_up_snow_is_glistening_carolpaynestamps4

 Just lovely!

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

Stampin_up_snow_is_glistening_carolpaynestamps7

 I can't wait to try this one!

Stampin’ Up! Lift Me Up Baby Shower Card for Sheila!

Stampin’ Up! Lift Me Up Baby Shower Card for Sheila!

Hey there! Today I'm sharing a special baby shower card. Sheila's my oldest daughter, Jessica's, bestie since they were babies. Both now 40, Sheila is having her very first baby in December. We are over the moon happy for her and her sweet hubby, David!

Honored to be asked to create an "Adventure Awaits" banner for the event,  I'm waiting for pictures as I didn't feel my camera could do it justice. But I can share the card I created that coordinates with the banner:

Stampin_up_beautiful_bouquet_carolpaynestamps1

I used the Up & Away Thinlets Dies to create the hot-air balloon. The map paper background is a retired Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper. I keep almost all of my retired stuff. Although it takes up a lot of storage room, it comes in handy when a custom project like this comes along!

Stampin_up_beautiful_bouquet_carolpaynestamps2

I cut the intricate balloon outline from Basic Black card stock, then used more of the thinlets to cut the panels behind it from Coastal Cabana, Blushing Bride, and Mint Macaron.

Stampin_up_beautiful_bouquet_carolpaynestamps3

I used "Congratualtions" from the Beautiful Bouquet set to stamp in black ink.

Stampin_up_beautiful_bouquet_carolpaynestamps4

Inside I used a sentiment from Hold on To Hope:

Stampin_up_hold_on_to_hope_carolpaynestamps1

I inked the mini-balloon from Lift Me Up with Coastal Cabana, Blushing Bride, and Mint Macaron Stampin' Write Markers. After cutting out with an Up & Away Thinlet, I adhered with a Stampin' Dimensional.

Stampin_up_lift_me_up_carolpaynestamps1

Lest you think I am a perfect stamper who never makes a mistake, here's what I discovered after I adhered the banner to the card front. Can you see what's wrong with this card? Fortunately it was easily fixed!

Swirls & Curls Birthday Card for Ivory!

Swirls & Curls Birthday Card for Ivory!

Hey there! We celebrated Ivory's 2nd birthday yesterday, and today I want to share her card with you!

The wrapping paper Darcy helped me pick out to wrap Ivory's gifts had cupcakes all over it, so I decided to make a cupcake card to match!

Stampin_up_birthday_banners_carolpaynestamps1

 I embossed the Whisper White layer with the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions folder for a swirling icing look. I embossed a piece of Crumb Cake with the Corrugated Dynamic folder, then hand-trimmed it to size with the half-circle I punched with the 2 1/4" Circle Punch. I smeared the Melon Mambo cupcake top with Shimmery White Embossing Paste for icing. Stampin' Up! currently doesn't have any number dies, so I did use a retired set I still keep in my stash for just these occasions!

Stampin_up_birthday_banners_carolpaynestamps2

 I tied 16" of Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon into a bow for some girly "fluff"!

Stampin_up_birthday_banners_carolpaynestamps3

 Inside I stamped images and sentiments from the Birthday Banners set!

Carol Payne Stamps Sunday Swap Day October 7th!

Carol Payne Stamps Sunday Swap Day October 7th!

Hey there! It's the first Sunday of October and time for Sunday Swap Day! yay!

First, a often-overlooked  but lovely set from the Holiday Catalog, Pleasant Pheasants, was the choice of Carol Slack for her swap. She used the Buffalo Check to create her background, which gives it so much warmth with the Early Espresso ink on Cajun Craze!

Stampin_up_pleasant_pheasants_carolpaynestamps1

Carol stamped the pheasants with Cajun Craze ink, then used a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to move the color over them while at the same time adding shimmer!

Stampin_up_pleasant_pheasants_carolpaynestamps2

 The inside features a lovely sentiment that is included in the set:

Stampin_up_pleasant_pheasants_carolpaynestamps3

Cards created by Mary Lang never disappoint! Mary also used Pleasant Pheasants, but she focused on the wheelbarrow, bucket, and foliage for her autumnal creation. She embossed the Cajun Craze background with the Swirls and Curls Textured Impressions folder for more interest.

Stampin_up_pleasant_pheasants_carolpaynestamps4

Mary's creation is an easel-fold Thanksgiving card!

Finally, Linda Pagel also used the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions folder to emboss the Night of Navy background of this clean-and-simple Winter Woods card.

Stampin_up_winter_woods_carolpaynestamps1

Linda used Silver Embossing Powder to give the trees dimension and shine. This card could be used for any occasion!

For my project today all you have to do is turn to pages 4 & 5 of the Holiday Catalog to the All is Bright Suite!

Stampin_up_merry_christmas_to_all_carolpaynestamps1

 I used a Merry Christmas Thinlets Die to cut "Merry" from Gold Glimmer Paper, then adhered to a rectangle of Very Vanilla embossed with the Swirls & Curls Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. After layering onto a Basic Black mat, I adhered to a piece of Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper.
