April’s Paper Pumpkin is ‘Delicate Wings’ and looks amazing


I thought I'd share some sneak peaks of upcoming Paper Pumpkin kits.  

April's kit is called Delicate Wings


Did you know that you are in charge of which kits you receive?  Once you purchase a pre-paid subscription or subscribe you can opt out of any kit you do not want. Stampin' Up! shares what's coming up each month so you can decide if you want it or not.  You have complete control!

You're also eligible to purchase any of the refill kits or add-on's SU offers. See them all here. 

*Plus when you subscribe with me, LeeAnn Greff, you'll qualify for a FREE tutorial each month.

  • This tutorial PDF is filled with 10 or more alternate ideas for additional projects you can make with each month's kit (includes photos & instructions) – making your kit go a lot further!  *see example photo below

Here is more info on how Paper Pumpkin works:

A MONTHLY CRAFTING SUBSCRIPTION

EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A CRAFT BOX

One issue crafters often run into is feeling overwhelmed by their project. Lack of inspiration, proper supplies and crafty know-how might discourage you from even starting a project and unlocking your creative potential!

This never happens with a craft subscription box from Paper Pumpkin. That’s because everything you need for your project is included in your monthly art box. All you have to do is open it up and get started. You’ll be able to make cards, treat bags, gift boxes and so much more with your monthly art box subscription.

BUILD YOUR STAMP COLLECTION

Among the items in each Paper Pumpkin monthly craft kit is a reusable rubber stamp. So after you’re done creating your monthly craft, you’ll have a valuable stamp to add to your collection. You even get a free clear stamping block with your first craft box. Plus, you get a different color ink pad every month as well.

PRINT & VIDEO INSTRUCTION MAKE CRAFTING EASY

Even the craftiest among us worry that we’ll have trouble understanding how to do a project, or that we’ll make a mistake. You never have to worry about that with Paper Pumpkin! That’s because not only does each monthly arts and crafts box come with clear, easy-to-understand printed instructions, but we also upload a video to YouTube so you can watch a professional guide you through the craft.

  • Shabby Chic Lovely & Sweet card with video tutorial & free project sheet!


    Here's the last card made in last week's video featuring the Nature's Sweetness suite. I absolutely love this color palette! 

    It's Pecan Pie with Pebbled Path & Gold accents with a rich monotone look. Look closely at the layout. It's basically a few random layers with only one that's layered.  Adding a few smaller elements creates the balance here. 

    Details & tips:

    • Note the distressed edges on a few of the layers. That is done by rubbing your open scissor blade over the edge of the paper.  Fast and fabulous results! *watch how I do it in the video below.
    • The large stamped Pecan Pie layer and the DSP square are both sponged with Pecan Pie ink to age them a bit. 
    • That butterfly is one of our Paper Butterfly Accents colored with a Light Natural Tones blends marker. I added some Gold Enamel Effects in streaks all over it. *see how in the video
    • I added Gold Enamel Effects as berries on the tall leaf die-cut on the left. 

    Here's how I stamped the inside.  The greeting is from the Softly Sophisticated stamp set from Sale-a-Bration. 

    Here's a picture of the Lovely & Sweet bundle I used here. See it online here.

  • Lovely & Sweet card is filled with textures; get the free project sheet or watch the video


    This is one of the cards I featured on last week's Live video. I chose to showcase the Nature's Sweetness suite.  

    The colors include Lost Lagoon, Crumb Cake, Pretty Peacock, White & Pecan Pie. See the neat woven trim on the edge?  that is done with the new Faux Leather trim that has a subtle gold shimmer to it.  The holes and the leaves are made with the Notes of Nature dies seen here. 

    Below is a photo of the entire suite of products. 

    If you order this suite you'll earn two free Sale-a-Bration choices!  Or get it and almost $20 more with the Starter Kit deal! 

    Other dies include the Cheerful Daisies for the label and the Deckled Circles behind the flowers/leaves.  I also used the Wink of Stella with Lost Lagoon ink to color the flowers and added a Blooming Pearl to each one.

  • Gorgeous Notes of Nature card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I had no idea I would enjoy creating with the Nature's Sweetness suite as much as I did. It's not my usual style but I'm in love with it all!  

    Here's one of the cards I shared on last week's video: 

    I used the Notes of Nature bundle and Old Olive, Black and gold accents on this card.  The large white layer is made by stamping a few of the background stamps in Black ink. I added two sets of leaves – one in green and 2 the other in the Gold designer paper. 

    I want to mention what I think puts this card over the top. Of course the gold additions attract your eye but I think repeating colors a few times helps a lot. Notice how the black is repeated, the Olive is and so is the Gold. If you have trouble with color combinations, try adding one color with a neutral or two. Such as Black & White with any color. 

    More Details:

    • I textured the Olive layer with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and used a Blending Brush to add Old Olive ink to it. This really highlights the texture! 
    • Also notice the small strip of Gold designer paper on the top and bottom of the stamped white layer.  This is the Nature's Sweetness specialty paper. 
    • I added gold sequins and gold Elegant trim near the greeting.
