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.

• Neat Z-fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

  February 17, 2025

  ---

  Today I'm sharing a neat Z-fold card that's a little different than usual.  I chose to feature the new Mixed Media Floral designer paper from our Online Exclusives line.  You can see it here.  

  Save

  My colors include Mossy Meadow, White & Calypso Coral. The left card above has a 4" square of DSP as the main panel. On the right card I fussy cut the flowers from the DSP and added them over a printed blue panel that resembles sky. 

  The greeting is from the SAB Heart Shaped bundle; the die-cut is from the Mixed Label dies and the Coral piece is punched using the Labeled with Love punch.

  You can see how it opens in the photo below: The card base is 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" and there's a full 11" X 4 1/4" scored layer above it.

  These eye catching cards are all fancy folds. You'll make 2 each of the 5 card designs. Who doesn't love adding a few new fold ideas?  The great thing is you'll have samples in hand to case later.

  No stamping is needed with this awesome Ephemera pack. They're all printed in Black & White and ready to add to your projects. You can sponge the edge, use markers to color or leave them as is.  They're a wonderful deal – 2 of each sheet for $7. 

  The pre-cut kit includes all card bases, layers and punched or die-cut pieces.  You will need a paper trimmer for your new DSP.
