Stampin’ Up! Lilypad Lake and the New Catalog Begins Today!

Posted on June 1, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! The New Annual Catalog starts today at Noon MT! I've been sharing sneak peeks for awhile, but now the catalog is LIVE and you can order the supplies! Yay!

For today's card I turned the presentation from portrait to landscape, brayering the same colors with the Versamark Resist technique. To view yesterday's card and the brayer tutorial, click HERE.

I cut the egret with a Lakeside Framelit.

I used the circle from Lilypad Lake to stamp the setting sun with Versamark before brayering the colors on the glossy card stock. I used a Journaling Pen to hand-draw the birds.

I cut the Lilypad Lake sentiment and the sea grass with Lakeside Framelits.

Inside I stamped a Special Occasions sentiment, then used the same brayer technique on the white layer. As you can see, you get a very different look with a different card stock!

Stampin’ Up! Lilypad Lake Versamark Resist!

Posted on May 31, 2018 by Carol Payne

Hey there! I've been stamping up a storm the past couple of days, getting ready for my New Catalog Open House on June 16th! I wanted to make more samples with the Lilypad Lake Bundle, so I used the Versamark Resist technique on Glossy Paper with Sponge Brayers to create this card:

I used Sponge Brayers to roll multiple ink colors over the waves and the setting sun I stamped with Versamark ink on a layer of Glossy card stock. I cut the sailboats from Basic Black with a Lakeside Framelit, adhering with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals for a silhouette look.

I stamped the sailboats directly on the waves stamp, turned it upside down and stamped with the black ink to get the "reflection" look! I love this sentiment I cut out with a Lakeside Framelit.

To achieve the sunset look, first I sponge brayered So Saffron ink on the top of the glossy layer. I had already stamped the waves and sun with Versamark. I brayered Calypso Coral ink next, but forgot to take a pic.

Next I brayered Pool Party:

Then Coastal Cabana:

Bermuda Bay:

Finally I added a bit of Flirty Flamingo right at the horizon.

Inside I stamped more Lilypad Lake sentiments and images:

Stampin’ Up! Night in Bethlehem Slider!

Posted on August 26, 2017 by Carol Payne

Hey there! Another of my favorite projects I shared with Vacation Stamping School were these two slider cards I created with the Night in Bethlehem set:

First I created this Versamark Resist version. To do the Versamark Resist technique, I stamped the "milky way" stars image from Star of Light and the Nativity star from Night in Bethlehem with Versamark on glossy card stock. I then used a Sponge Brayer to roll first Soft Sky and then Night of Navy over the stamped images. After I got the color intensity I wanted I then rubbed the images gently with a Kleenex to remove the excess ink. The Versamark "resisted" the ink, leaving soft star images.

For my "stepped-up" version I heat embossed the same images on glossy card stock with white and silver embossing powder before brayering the same Soft Sky/Night of Navy colors over them. After rubbing away the excess ink with a Kleenex I then sponged the edges with Basic Black ink. I mounted the piece on Basic Black, then added it to a Basic Black/Merry Music Specialty Paper layer that I punched with the Classic Label Punch to create the slider opening.

I stamped the "milky way" image with stamped-off Night of Navy ink and then stamped the Night in Bethlehem sentiment with Basic Black ink on a 2" x 4 1/2" strip that I punched one end with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch to create the end to attach the ribbon pull.

I added a 1/4" wide strip to both sides of the other end of the tag to create a "stop" so the tag won't fall out of the opening.

I finished off the tag with Silver 3/8" Metallic-Edged Ribbon for the pull.

Inside I finished with the Star of Light "milky way" and Night in Bethlehem images:
