Jul 25, 2017 | Cards, Embossing Paste, Stampin' Up! Starter Kit |
The new Decorative Masks are a versatile item in our catalog. We have had some others in the past so if you still have those try them for various techniques too. These new masks have some smaller designs than our retired masks.
For this card I used one of the new masks – it actually coordinates with the Eastern Palace Suite. The large medallion mask is perfect for this technique using the sponge daubers. Use multiple colors and blend them together from light to dark or dark to light using the mask.
My Thailand swap was the same concept – I posted it earlier. The colors on this card are Daffodil Delight, Peekaboo Peach and Berry Burst. This particular card idea came from one I saw online. I used it for a team meeting where we learned about the embossing paste and masks.
The hardest part of this card is just making sure your panel and your mask stay still while you are doing the sponging. So I use washi tape to help with that. First roll up a small piece on the back of your panel and stick that to your work surface. Then place your mask where you want it. Then use washi tape to hold the mask in place. Now use your ink and your sponge daubers to add color. Once you are done lift the mask and “tada” – you have a new creation. Each one will look a bit different as the colors blend in various places.

Jul 24, 2017 | Birthday, Cards, Embossing Paste, Stampin' Up! Starter Kit |
Have you tried the new Embossing Paste from Stampin’ Up!?
It is my favorite new accessory product in the catalog. So easy and fun to use. I posted earlier a card where I colored the paste. This one today just uses it as is – white.
The brick mask is a fun one too – it’s perfect for backgrounds. I used just a small amount of paste through the mask to create the brick back ground that is just partially filled in and not a solid wall, like a crumbling wall in an old garden.
The butterfly is just fluttering by. It’s the Watercolor Wings stamp set. Two-step stamping – but really this butterfly is a three-step on the wings. The base layer – the most solid layer is in Soft Sky ink. The second layer – the other edges – is Pool Party ink. The third layer – the details – is Bermuda Bay ink. Then a fourth one is the body in Soft Suede ink. The Bold Butterfly Framelits cut out this butterfly for you so you don’t have to fussy cut.
TIP!!! Here is a tip for you – stamp the wings – all three layers and then cut it out. Stamp the body after you cut it so you get it in the right spot. The stamps are photopolymer so you can see through. I find it best if you can stand while stamping and look directly over the top of it.

Jul 24, 2017 | SU Incentive Trip, Uncategorized |
The Stampin’ Up! Incentive trip to Thailand was amazing. They spoiled us like you wouldn’t believe! Every little thing was taken care of while we were there. On our door was a personalized sign for each of the achievers.
Since we had basically the whole resort it was fun to read the name on each door as you walked around. The resort was absolutely beautiful with the most amazing swimming pool I’ve ever seen. It was really 4 different free form pools connected my a waterway – like a lazy river but there wasn’t really a current. So you could float or walk through the water from one section to another. At one end were the sports stuff including a beach and sand inside the pool. Our room overlooked this end of the pool. Most of the kids seemed to be hanging out at this end. There was a swim up bar, a couple of waterfalls and Jacuzzi areas along the way. Some of the rooms were right on the water and so were some of the restaurants.
It’s taken me a while to catch up to the correct time zone – the first few days I was home it was hard to stay awake during the whole day – I think I’m almost adjusted back to that now. And then my body is hungry at the wrong time of day! I’m still working on that.
I’ll share more little bits about the trip over the next week or two. But I also want to share a stamping projects with you. So I’ll be scattering those in between my Thailand posts. Some days I’ll even have two posts!
Thanks so much for supporting me in my Stampin’ Up! Business which allowed me to earn this amazing trip! There were just over 400 demonstrators world wide that earned the trip. Not everyone went on the trip – just over 300 were in attendance with a spouse, friend, or family member(s) and a few came alone. In total there were over 700 of us at the resort for the week!
Thank you for visiting!
