Change is Beautiful Paper Pumpkin alternatives; plus discounted past kits while supplies last!

April's Paper Pumpkin kit is filled with butterflies, scenes & fun fold cards.  Each month I enjoy creating alternative designs with the contents in the kits to share with my subscribers each month.  
 
I couldn't wait to play with this kit!  Here's a pretty card I made just an hour after receiving my box:
 
 
I cut the front of a card base to fit on the front of a Crushed Curry card base and used other elements in the kit (butterfly, flower, banner & gems) to create this scene.  I love changing up the cards; the kits are great as is but the challenge of creating something new is fun!
 
This next card uses the other half of the original card base.  The flower layer and the polka dot layer behind it are from the original card.  I did trim them just a bit to fit on a White layer.  
Other Details: 
  • I stamped the butterfly in the kit onto the Granny Apple Green layer with Versamark ink for a soft background. 
  • The caterpillar is from the kit.  
  • The butterflies are stamped on White card stock using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers. 
  • The greeting is stamped on an Oval die-cut. 
Heads up on May's Paper Pumpkin kit – it will feature each of our 5 new In Colors AND they are adding Golden Vouchers worth $25 USD to some of the boxes. The winners will find their Golden Voucher in their May 2022 Paper Pumpkin box.

  • Beautiful Floral card kit to go; or choose the tutorial option. While supplies last

    The Violet Dreams designer paper is the star of these pretty cards for my August card kit to go. If you love purple this kit is for you!

    Save

    All but one card of the 5 designs are fun fold layouts. This floral themed designer paper includes a sheet of pre-cut ephemera which makes creating a breeze. I added the Fresh Freesia ribbon and rhinestone gems and include them in the kit to go.

    I design my card kits specifically to make them easy to finish; you need a few inks and stamped greetings. You will need to cut your new designer paper using my tutorial as a guide. Everything else is pre-cut for you; perfect for easy crafting!

    Choose from the pre-cut kit to go which includes approximately $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards and PDF tutorial for $33. Click here.

    Or choose the PDF tutorial for $17. Click here for that option.

    The tutorial is emailed to you immediately after purchase. The kit to go is mailed out mid August.

    I have many kits available and some are discounted; check them all out here.

  • Check out this neat Botanical Expressions fun fold card

    I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It features a new die from the Online store called Botanical Expressions:

    Save

    You can see a glimpse of the die in the photo above. It cuts the leaves out but not the edge, so you can make the leaf element as wide as you’d like. See this die here.

    My colors include White with Peaceful Pine. The designer paper is the Moonlit Flora DSP seen here. The greeting tag is from the Scalloped Blooms dies. I’ve been using the greeting tags in this set of dies a lot.

    Save

    This card fold is what I’m calling a Vertical Book-binding Z-fold.

    Save

    The greeting and butterflies are from the Fern & Flora bundle seen here

  • Another sample using DSP strips; the pretty Velvet Meadow DSP

    I shared a card using a strips technique a few days ago and wanted to share the card that inspired it today.

    Save

    Here are the products I used: Velvet Meadow DSP, Bubble Bath, Berry Burst & Peaceful Pine CS. The greeting is from the Flowering Meadow stamp set and the scalloped tags are from the Scalloped Blooms dies seen here.

    When using up your strips you can adhere them diagonally across your card stock, leaving a small space between each. Once this CS is filled in, trim off the excess on the edges.

    Save

    The Velvet Meadow specialty paper has a fuzzy, flocked feel to the flowers and some leaves. It’s luxurious! Check it out here.
    I fussy cut the flower and leaves to add to the greeting.
