Hey there! When I posted the "MERRY Christmas"  banner on Saturday, I remembered I had another banner I had not yet shared with you. I created it for my oldest daughter's best friend's baby shower with the Up & Away Thinlets dies and some retired Stampin' Up! Designer Paper. I love that I can go back into my retired stash and find the perfect print for my crafting needs! It was a long banner with the phrase "Adventure Awaits" spelled out with Basic Black letters cut with the Large Letters Framelits.

I used the same design for this banner as I did for the "MERRY Christmas" one I shared a few days ago. Each pennant is 3 1/2" x 6", then I hand-cut the banner points with my Paper Snips. I added a 3 3/4" 4" layer of either Mint Macaron, Coastal Cabana, or Blushing Bride to coordinate with the colors of the hot air balloon and to give the pennants some weight so they would hang straight. I folded the top of each pennant over and stapled them so the pennants are adjustable along the hanging string.

This close-up of the balloon is actually from the card I made for the shower to go with her gift, but it's the same as the one I put on the banner.

This banner was fun to make! I was reminded to post this because the baby was born Saturday evening and I received a picture on my phone yesterday morning! Mommy & baby are doing great!

Here's the link to the Christmas banner I posted a couple of days ago: https://www.carolpaynestamps.com/2018/12/stampin-up-winter-woods.html

Hey there! Last week my oldest son, Troy, proposed to his girl, Grace, and she said yes!

I wanted to make them a congratulations card, so I pulled out the Frosted Floral Suite from the Holiday Catalog:

The colors are very subtle: Soft Seafoam, So Saffron, Highland Heather, and Whisper White. See the supplies listed below with clickable links to my online store for full details. I embossed a layer of Soft Seafoam with the Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions folder to adhere on top of the Soft Seafoam card base, then started adding the rest of the layers.

After stamping the roses with stamped-off Highland Heather and So Saffron and cutting out with Frosted Bouquet Framelits, I painted them with my Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush for a soft, shimmery look.

The inside sentiment is from the Annual Catalog set, Better Together.

Hey there! This morning we dock in Seattle, take two flights, then home to our own beds tonight!

Today I'm sharing two cards created by me with Petal Promenade Designer Paper and Large Letters Framelits!

My first card has "LOVE" cut from Petal Promenade Designer (on sale B3G1F this month!), adhered Whisper White, then embossed with the Petal Burst folder.

Petal Promenade is sooooooo gorgeous, you've got to order some!

I used the negative from cutting the first "LOVE" for this card:

A Special Celebrations sentiment cut with a Lakeside framelit:

Same Special Celebrations sentiment inside both cards:

Hey there! Today I have another creation with the Serene Garden Bundle. This time I used the embossing plate from the Garden Scene Framelits to emboss the Whisper White Thick card base and colored the leaves, flowers, and butterfly with a Blender Pen and ink from Powder Pink and Soft Seafoam ink pads.

 The Garden Scene Framelits cut out the bird, flowers, and the butterfly Serene Garden images, and includes the embossing plate I used to emboss two opposite corners. I used the new Big Shot Embossing Mats to emboss with the plate. "Best Wishes from all of us" is from Itty Bitty Greetings.

 Inside I used a sentiment from Beautiful Bouquet, a carry-over set from the last catalog.

Hey there! While I was sponging through the stencil cut with a Springtime Impressions thinlet for the card I posted yesterday, I decided to use the sponged stencil on a card too!

 Balmy Blue is SUCH a PRETTY color! There's a hint of green in the ink that I don't really see in the card stock, it's almost like a light Island Indigo! After I used the stencil to sponge on the card I showed you yesterday, I applied liquid glue to the back of the stencil to adhere to this card.

 I heat-embossed the greeting with white powder, then added a Share What You Love embellishment with a glue dot.

 Before I adhered the sponged stencil to the front I used it like a stencil on the inside white layer.

Tomorrow is Stamper's Dozen Blog Hop day, so be sure to stop by while the hop is hoppin!

Hey there! I used the Springtime Impression thinlets to cut a stencil to create a flowery background for my card today:

I laid the stencil on the card base, then used a Sponge Dauber to sponge Balmy Blue ink through it. Sponging with a stencil is quick and easy!

 I tied Whisper White 5/8" Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon for a delicate accent.

 "happy anniversary" is from a new set, Itty Bitty Greetings. I added a single pearl to accent the greeting.

 Inside I sponged Balmy Blue ink through the stencil and added a sentiment from Varied Vases.

Hey there! I played quite a bit with the Abstract Impression Bundle, using Balmy Blue and Silver Foil to create a nifty anniversary card:

The card base is a classic "z-fold"; 4 1/4" x 11", scored and folded at 2 3/4" and 5 1/2". Silver Foil was cut with a Springtime Impressions Thinlet, then adhered with liquid glue applied with a small paintbrush.

 I heat embossed the greeting from Stitched All Around with silver powder, then punched and rounded the corners with the Detailed Trio Punch. My supply table below says Pearl Basic Jewels in error, they are actually Metallic Pearls #146282.

 Inside I added a layer of Silver Foil, then punched the corners of the white layer again with the Detailed Trio Punch and then embossed the sentiment from Stitched All Around.

 This was actually a pretty quick and easy card!

Hey there! While I was creating my projects for the Petal Palette Stamp Class I made a few extras. The Flap Fold wedding card I'm sharing today is one of them!

After embossing with one of the Petal Pair Textured Impressions folders I sponged a bit of Sweet Sugarplum ink to make the design stand out.

 Silver heat-embossing makes the greeting and the inside sentiment pop!

 I love this "Flap Fold"!
