Beautiful swap cards with Holiday Catalog stamp sets

August 19, 2022

Today I'm sharing more of my Flowerbug Team card swaps featuring Holiday Catalog stamps or bundles.

First up is a beautiful card made by Tracey featuring the Perched in a Tree bundle seen here.

Her colors are Soft Suede, Petal Pink and Mango Melody. The designer papers are Texture Chic and the Silver & Gold Sale-a-Bration DSP. We stamped & sponged the Silver & gold DSP to add coordinating colors.

The gold leaves are from the Chic dies cut from the Distressed Gold DSP. The solid leaves are from the Aspen dies. That pretty texture on the Soft Suede layer is the Twigs & Sprigs embossing folder seen here. All contribute to making this card stunning!

Measurements:

Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
Soft Suede 4" X 5 1/4"
DSP are both 3" X 4"

Next is a soft & pretty card Marilyn made. She used the Splendid Thoughts bundle.

Her colors are Coastal Cabana with Soft Suede & White. The Splendid Stems dies add a delicate natural touch.

The White is textured with the Painted Texture embossing folder. The corners on this piece are punched with the new Very Best Trio punch seen here. The soft DSP is from the Splendid Day specialty paper seen here.

Measurements:

Coastal Cabana is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
Soft Suede – 3 3/4" X 5"
White is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
DSP & Coastal Cabana layers are 2 3/4" X 3 1/4"

Lastly for today is a pretty card made by Paula. She cased a card made by Colleen Magness. It features the pretty Soft Seedlings stamp set. It's a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of color when stamping. Although she did use a sponging technique to achieve her multiple colors.

Save

She inked the stamp in Crushed Curry first, then added Old Olive to the stem with a marker. Then used a finger dauber to add pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler ink on stamp. Huff & stamp!

The leaf texture on her Vanilla layer is made with the Leaf Fall 3D folder seen here. It's new!

Measurements:

Crushed Curry card base 4 1/4" X 11"
Vanilla 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
Cherry Cobbler 5 1/4" X 4"
Pumpkin Pie 5 3/8 X 4 1/8"

All of the Little Things kit with an alternate fun fold card idea!

May 10, 2023

I had time to stamp some kits last weekend and thought I'd share them with you. I do love our kits! Such enjoyable and stress free creating! I did it at a crafting day at our church. All I took with me was adhesive, a bone folder, paper snips, and the kit!

The cards below were made with April's 'All the Little Things' Paper Pumpkin kit. I made most of them as the kit directed me to.

However I changed the greetings so I could use them as thank you cards. Such a gorgeous kit this is! If you're a Paper Pumpkin subscriber did you know you are eligible to get the refills when they become available? The refill kit includes all products in the original kit except the stamp set & ink spot. But you already own those so it's easy to make more cards. you can get the refill for this kit here.

Today, May 10th, is the last day to get in on the Exploring In Color Paper Pumpkin kit. More information below.

Save

Each month I create a few alternative ideas and share them with my subscribers and my Team; here's a peak at April's projects.

Here's one of the cards I made. It's a floating panel card!

Save

Here's a quick example of how to make one. Score your (5 1/2" X 8 1/2") card twice – at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4". Then add two folded strips of card stock (about 1/2" X 2" each) on that center front fold – both folds meet on that scored line. Add adhesive to the top area and add your top panel to it. Done!

Save

I LOVED making these cards! If you want to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin with me, here's a link.

Or if you'd rather purchase a subscription you can do that here.

Remember that with Paper Pumpkin you are in charge of which kits you receive; pause if you don't like the next kit. But as a subscriber you are eligible to get any of the available refills or add on items.

Hint: June's kit will include an add on die-cut option!
