Bonus Days are here! Plus lots of exciting new products seen online!!


First, I want to wish you a wonderful & happy 4th of July!  I hope you get to spend it with family or friends.

Bonus Days start today!  That means that for each $50 you spend (before tax and shipping) you earn a free $5 coupon to redeem in August. 

Tips on earning & using these coupons:

  • Spend in July & redeem in August – if you tend to order monthly or every other month it makes sense to assure your order is over $50 in July so you can redeem it in August

  • Wanting to try Paper Pumpkin kits? Or if you already love Paper Pumpkin grab a 3 or 6 month pre-paid subscription here and earn free coupons!

Below is a sneak peak of the upcoming 3 months of Paper Pumpkin kits. There is an optional add on that coordinates with each of these kits! See that here. 

Remember that Paper Pumpkin subscribers get perks!  They are eligible to purchase any of the available past kits, refills or add ons.  I love the refill options; they're a fabulous deal!  See those here.

  • Gorgeous Garden dies & Blending Brushes; wow!


    Check out this beautiful card made with the Gorgeous Garden dies!  


    I think it's stunning.  Don't you love the pretty blending of the greens? I simply added one color to the finished die-cut.  I cut it out from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and added Pretty Peacock ink with a blending brush in a few areas.  Easy!  

    I was surprised that the finished color (after adding Pretty Peacock to Lemon Lime Twist) was close to Shaded Spruce.  Who knew?!  So I added a 1/4" strip to the left edge of the card to bring in that color and also stamped the greetings in Shaded Spruce too.  

    Tip: Adding your colors in two or more ways to your project gives them a cohesive look. For example if I use green card stock I will add a layer of green or a stamped image. If you struggle with choosing color combinations stick with just two colors.  Or better yet try a monochromatic card – add one color to a neutral like white, browns or black.  

    I used the Lasting Joy set for my greetings.  I really love this set with the mixed fonts; I find I use it often.  

    I added a stitched circle to the left side to anchor the greeting.  Both of these dies are from the Stylish Shapes dies; they're a must have! See them here.  

    Here are the Gorgeous Garden dies. 

    I made these cards on a recent video seen here.  Or click on the photo below to watch.

  • More Earthen Textures card ideas


    Here is another simple but pretty card I made on last week's Live video. 

    It features the Earthen Textures stamp set & dies bundle.  Unfortunately the dies are in low inventory so they may be unavailable soon.   But they'll be back I'm sure.  You can see them here.  

    I'm not quite ready for fall yet but I do love this color combination of Pecan Pie & Pretty Peacock.  A little touch of gold adds some elegance with the Gold Distressed paper and Festive Pearls.  I added more detail with a stitched edge with the Stitched with Whimsy dies. That notebook die-cut edge is from the Gorgeously Made dies seen here.  

    And here's a very simple version with a similar layout: 

    I didn't even add any bling or embellishments to this one.  I think it needs something… maybe gold pearls? 

    I stamped the vase in Pecan Pie on Basic White and die-cut it out.  Then added another die-cut of the handles from our Gold Distressed paper. The greeting is heat embossed with White embossing powder on Pretty Peacock card stock. 

    The nice thing about this layout is you can get 5 card fronts from one 8 1/2" X 11" paper when using my 5 at a time layouts.  See them here on this post. 

    You can see more Earthen Textures cards on the video here.  Don't forget to subscribe to either my FB page here to join in the Live's each Tuesday morning.  Or follow me on YouTube here.

  • Alcohol blends technique with video tutorial


    I shared this fun technique on a recent video; I call it the Alcohol Blends Background.  

    For the cards above I added pretty floral die-cuts from the Paper Florist dies.  The greetings are from the Kindest Expressions stamp set.  The background colors were made with the following Blends: Left card Mossy Meadow & Lemon Lime Twist. Right card was Berry Burst & Blackberry Bliss.  

    To achieve this cool background you need Blends or alcohol markers and rubbing alcohol in a spritzer bottle. I used regular Basic White card stock and a clear plastic folder to work on. You can watch the video here.  

    I tried many color combinations; you can see some of the finished cards below plus the backgrounds too. 

    I shared this technique on Monday night's Live and challenge my followers to share a card featuring this technique on my Stamp & Share Facebook group.  Share yours here by August 27th to get in on the door prize drawing.
