Stampin’Up! Guest Stamper, Joyce Fisher!

Posted on May 22, 2012 by Carol Payne

One of the many things I enjoy about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator is building friendships with my customers and my downline. Today's post is all about one of my downline, Joyce! I met Joyce at least 6 years ago and she has been stamping with me ever since. About a year ago, last July in fact, she decided to join my group of "Yes Ma'am!" downline. Since then we have grown even closer as she is a faithful attendee of my meetings and many of my classes. At the "Brides & Babies" class this past weekend, she brought a small stack of cards she had been working on and they were so delightful I had to take pictures and asked her if she would like to be a guest stamper here on "Stampingrox My Fuzzy Blue Sox!" With Joyce's permission, here are her creations:

Inspired by many others out here in blogland, Joyce created an over-sized card for her "Strawberry Lemonade" or "Margarita" card. In lieu of microbeads for the edge of the cup, Joyce added actual salt to the Sticky Strip! So ingenious!

Another ingenious card, Joyce's "Mother's Day Word Search" card she created to give to her daughters on Mother's Day!

Here are all the words for her daughters to find that Joyce used to describe them!

Apparently there is a website where you can put in all the words you want in your wordsearch and it will create it for you, but Joyce painstakingly created this all on her own! Yay Joyce!

Next Joyce created this beautifully sponged card with the Bird Builder Punched silhouette. This card has an elegant, masculine feel to it. Very well done!

I loved Joyce's Owl Builder Punch nurse! So cute, and using the vest of the owl to create the nurse's cap is just so simple! The color combo of Riding Hood Red, Marina Mist, Soft Suede and Whisper White really give this card a "first aid kit" feel!

Last-but-not-least, Joyce found directions on SCS for this adorable pleated dress made with "Twitterpated" Designer Paper, which is NOT retiring!

I hope you've enjoyed Joyce's creations as much as I have! Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!

Sue Burton was one of the commenters for my Pop-up Card blog gift back in January. You can view that post here. I gave away several of this card to a number of commenters and Sue was a recipient of one of them. Imagine my surprise and delight to receive this in the mail yesterday:

Just beautiful! Sue used "Twitterpated" Designer Paper from the Occasions Mini and "Outlined Occasions" from the Sale-a-bration brochure to create this lovely card! But even more surpriseing was the note inside:

Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!

Valentine Week Day 2: P.S. I Love You!

Posted on February 8, 2012 by Carol Payne

For today's installment of Valentine Week, I have for you Leadership swaps featuring the Occasions Mini set, P.S. I Love You! (Where available, I will note the creator.)

Beckie Carlson:

Ellen Auger:

Glenda Travelstead:

This one I do not have the creator's name, but there's a feature of this one you may not notice right away. The labels in the center are actually mounted on a clear window sheet, giving it a "suspended" look! Pretty cool! Love the pairing of the Twitterpated DSP with Blushing Bride, Riding Hood Red, and Silver Glimmer Paper!

Valentine Quick Card Box & Cards!

Posted on January 31, 2012 by Carol Payne

Well, I didn't get back yesterday afternoon to show you the Valentine Box & Cards as I was inspired to work on school-exchange Valentines for my grandchildren's approval (which I will share another day), but here's the box & cards now:

I used the same box design as the one I posted yesterday for the Mixed Bunch Box & Cards, but used Cherry Cobbler Textured Cardstock, Twitterpated Designer Paper, and the "P.S. I Love You" stamp set.

I cut out my valentine hearts with the Heart Framelits, using the next to largest heart for the Whisper White layer. Even though there are 6 different sizes of hearts in this set, wouldn't you know the size I needed for the Cherry Cobbler matting layer didn't exist, UNTIL I realized I could trace around the outside of the framelit and then cut out the slightly larger heart mat with my Paper Snips! Voila! This discovery (although I'm sure I'm not the first), now expands the Heart Framelits from 6 sizes to 11! WOW! A great value for $26.95 price for the framelits!

I also added some cool detailing to each heart, one of the "Trinket Hearts", available in the Occasions Mini Catalog! I attached each one to the heart using my Paper Piercing Tool and a Silver Mini Brad!

Each heart has a phrase and image from "P.S. I Love You" and Riding Hood Red 3/8" Pleated Satin Ribbon. This final sample also has Cherry Cobbler Dazzling Details added to the stamped hearts! Even though Cherry Cobbler is not Riding Hood Red, it coordinates beautifully together! That's Stampin' Up! for you, always providing the best in coordination!

See you tomorrow for the reveal of the samples in the running for my grandchildren's Valentines! Ever since Maddie Kate, now 10 1/2 and in 5th grade, was in Kindergarten I have made Valentines with her for her classmates at school. Last year Ava joined us in the valentine-making tradition, and this year Cohen has Valentine's to make for Tuesday school! Oh my, boy-valentines, which as you would imagine are VERY different from girl-valentines!

Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!
