Stampin’Up! Retiring Wood Sheets!

Posted on May 2, 2012 by Carol Payne

The Wood Sheets are retiring, which I am a little bummed about since I just finally started playing with them! Guess it serves me right for not trying them out sooner! Here's a sample from the Spring into Stamping event on display:

This card uses the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Folder (not retiring!) and Lovely as a Tree (amazingly also NOT retiring!) Lovely As a Tree was one of my first go-to sets, it's been in the catalog longer than I've been a Demonstrator, yet it remains a high-selling favorite!

Thought I would show you one of my March Technique Class samples using Wood Sheets in case you missed it before:

Also retiring on this card: Plant Hope stamp set, Well Worn Designer Paper, and Artichoke Denim Ribbon!

That's all for today! Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!

Stampin’ Up! Wood Sheets with Plant Hope!

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Carol Payne

Today I have for you the 2nd technique we will be learning at Punch/Technique Class this month. The 3rd technique you have already seen, it is the Mixed Bunch Quilted Dazzling Diamond Dust card from the March 1st post.

This card today was a blast to create! I have had the Stampin' Up! Wood Sheets from page 216 of the Main Catalog for forever, but have only played with them one time before, and can't seem to remember where the card is I made with them! 🙁

Wood Sheets are a 5 3/4" x 13 3/4" layer of wood (four per package) with a thin, glossy paper backing. You can cut them with your Papercutter or the Big Shot. They are stampable, embossable, and sponge-able, of which I did all three on this card:

Gorgeous! I love the way stamping and sponging on the Wood Sheet brings out the "light" in the wood, don't you?!? I used the "Framed Tulips" Textured Impressions Folder on the edges of the matting layer, and also the rectangle "Decorative Frame" Textured Impressions Folder (free right now during SAB!)for the focal point layer. I also used the "Woodgrain" background stamp, "Plant Hope" for the focal image, and "Teeny Tiny Wishes" for the greeting.

I used Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla cardstock inside in order to feature the beautiful advantage of using the Wood Sheets to get all the "light" on the front:

I hope you can see the difference. I was amazed!

Thanks for stopping by today! Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!

Stampin’Up! Acrylic Distressing with Rue Des Fleurs!

Posted on March 8, 2012 by Carol Payne

Here's the next project for Punch/Technique Class this Saturday, a technique Stampin' Up! featured in their Demonstrator-only monthly magazine, "Stampin' Success"!

This pic really doesn't do this card or technique justice, as it is much softer (and clear!) in person! In a nutshell, this technique involves painting acrylic paint (97 cents at Wmart) over the cardstock, running through the Big Shot in an embossing folder, sanding, and then in some instances, sponging with ink! I chose to use the "Rue Des Fleurs" stamp set from the Occasions to feature with this technique because of its' vintagy-ness. I received this set while touring the Stampin' Up! Stamp Manufacturing Plant in Kanab, Utah, last September during my Founder's Circle trip, and I haven't used it enough, that's for sure!

Here's the inside:

Tomorrow I will have a technique card to show you using Stampin' Up!'s Wood Sheets!

Until then, thanks for stopping by and have a Stampingrox! Day
