A beautiful scene with the ‘Here’s to You’ kit; a Paper Pumpkin alternate idea


The March Paper Pumpkin kit included stencils and a sponge in the kit so I had to play with creating a scene.  It's one of my favorite techniques! 

One of the stencils has clouds in it.  I used Pool Party ink and lightly sponged on the upper part of my White CS. 

Then I sponged Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral ink about an inch and a half from the bottom edge.  Now I stamped the trees image in the kit with Pretty Peacock ink.  I did not reink the stamp each time so as I stamped repeatedly I achieved the appearance of a distant forest. Love this!!  

The birds and greeting images also came in this kit.

  • Beautiful Butterflies with Mixed Florals swap card; free project sheet


    Here's one more pretty card I made for an online swap in December.  I just love the colors!  

    I used Petal Pink, Mossy Meadow & Poppy Parade; all taken from the Mixed Florals designer paper seen here.  It's from our newest Online Exclusives release. See all of the newest items here. 

    There's just something about this layout that I love.  It might be the balance of the vertical & horizontal layers along with the circle.  It just feels right. 

    The greeting and butterfly die-cut are from the new Beautiful Butterflies bundle seen here.  

    There's so many neat things about this new bundle – the wonderful greetings, the pretty Hybrid embossing folder that matches the butterfly die and the fact that there's a large butterfly die that creates a butterfly folded card front like the one below!

  • Storybook Moments fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this easy fun fold card on last week's video. I made it for an online swap in December.  

    It features the Storybook Moments designer series paper from our new 2025 Spring catalog. It reminds many people of Beatrix Potter. You can see this unique paper here.   It has two sheets of printed die-cuts in each pack that make it easy to add coordinating layers. 

    I love this fun fold because it uses your card stock so effectively.  It starts with a card base at 11" X 4 1/4".  Simply trim off 3 1/4" square from one end and use it as the extra layer on the front flap.  The DSP in the center is 3" square and the side is 2" X 4". Super simple and a great use of your double sided designer paper.

  • Fruit Salad fun fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I shared this cute card on last week's Live video.  It features the colorful Fruit Salad 6 X 6" DSP from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with any $60 purchase. 

    I chose to highlight the red fruits in the Fruit Salad DSP along with a bit of Daffodil Delight or Granny Apple Green.  I absolutely love how our projects coordinate so perfectly!  This paper is free during Sale-a-Bration. 

    The greeting is from the Mixed Labels Online Exclusive stamp set. I love the sentiments and have used them a lot. And the coordinating dies are awesome!

    It's an easy fun fold card that has an extra fold on the right. Fold it back towards the center and add a coordinating strip of DSP to show off our double-sided papers!  I love this quick & easy fun fold and how well it makes good use of your designer paper.  I hope you save it and give it a try.  

    I created a free project sheet with photos & measurements for this card.  Click on the following link to access it. Download or print it.  Download Fruit Salad fun fold card
