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

  April 28, 2022

  ---

  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.

• Easiest way to create a scene; the Oceanfront stamp set!

  April 26, 2022

  ---

  Making swaps with a 'water theme' for my Flowerbug's Team was my first play with the Oceanfront stamp set seen here. I found out how easy it is to create a beautiful scene with just 4 stamped images.  

  

  My colors include Pool Party, Balmy Blue, Black & Sahara Sand.  

  

   

  The Pebbles Enamel Shapes embellishments are so perfect for the faux stones on the beach.  They were unavailable for quite awhile but they're now back! 

  

  The greeting & Palm tree are from the Paradise Palms bundle seen here.  It pairs wonderfully with the Oceanfront stamp set.  

  

  The Diorama dies make this card even more unique.  I added Stampin' Dimensionals to the outer 'frame' of the scene and adhered the center down flat. This reveals just a bit of the Black layer and gives dimension or depth to the scene.  

  Using the Stamparatus helped make these 14 swap cards quick work!  I love that we can reverse the plates on our Stamparatus so I could stamp all 4 images; one on each side of the 2 plates.  

  

  I think these cards are a great 'guy' card or for those who love the beach.
