Exploring In Color cards & envelopes & the Paper Pumpkin refill – both while supplies last!


May's Paper Pumpkin kit was amazing!  It featured our newest In Colors in fabulous scenic themed cards. Here is an alternative card I made with this kit:

I cut one of the card bases into three strips and adhered them onto a Boho Blue card base (5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4").  Each printed piece is 1 7/8" X 5 1/4". The White inside is 2" X 5 1/4".  The greeting, binoculars & pretty label piece are from the kit.  I added a 3/4" strip of Boho Blue CS under it. 

**Each month my Paper Pumpkin customers receive a big bunch of alternative ideas!  

You can't get the full kit anymore; the cut off date was May 10th.  But the refill is still available here.  Here's what you get: 

For $11.50 this refill kit includes:
* 9 printed card bases: 3 each of 3 designs
* Folded card size: 4-1/4" x 5-1/2"

  • Beautiful Autumn paired with Plaid Tidings


    There are lots of gorgeous Fall products in the 2020 Holiday catalog.  I paired a few of my favorites to create this card; the Beautiful Autumn punch bundle and Plaid Tidings 6 X 6" designer paper pack. 

    I trimmed off 3/4" from the front flap to reveal the strip of pretty Plaid Tidings designer paper.  I chose to use Bumblebee, Mint Macaron, Early Espresso and Terracotta Tile inks here.  

    The Beautiful Autumn bundle includes the stamp set and the three leaf punches; all for 10% off.  Click here to see it online. 

    I also used the Wrapped in Texture embossing folder for the front layer, which is 5 1/4" X 3". See them here. 

    Look at the detailed punched images here!   You might also notice the Sequins for Everything.  Love the variety of shapes and colors in these.  

    Here's a Facebook Live video where I shared three pretty fall cards using the Beautiful Autumn bundle.  Join me each Tuesday at 11 am  CT for my weekly Live videos here: https://bit.ly/FlowerbugFB

  • Gather Together card with a cool punch trick!!


    Marilyn made this pretty card for our Team swap.  She used the Gather Together bundle in the 2020 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog.  There are two really neat tricks you might not notice at first glance.  

    Can you spy the two special techniques here?  Keep reading and I'll share them below.

    Measurements:

    • Cajun Craze 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Very Vanilla 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Rich Razzleberry 5" X 3 3/4"
    • Plaid Tidings 1/2" X 3 3/4"

    Products Used:

    Okay, now I'll reveal her two tricks!  

    1. Can you see the changes in colors on the textured leaves?  The bottom three leaves were die-cut & embossed (done all at once!) and then spritzed with water.  The water changes the color on the leaves!  I cannot believe it's just water and no ink to get this effect.  Super cool!!
    2. Next is the greeting shape.  It's made with the Label me Lovely punch.  You can get multiple shapes from this punch.  Here's how:
    • Punch one piece out.  
    • Add a bit of adhesive to the end of a thin piece of card stock and adhere it to the punched piece. 
    • Insert the piece back into your punch and adjust it to get whatever size shape you want!  

    Here are three shapes I made with this punch.  Super neat and so versatile!  See the punch here.

  • So Much Happy card with video


    We made this eye-catching, birthday card at my July card clubs last month.  It features the fun So Much Happy bundle.  

    I also used the Brights & In Color designer paper for the balloons and the Rainbow Glimmer paper for the pennant die-cut & bitty stars.  They had a choice of Magenta Madness, Granny Apple Green or Coastal Cabana for their card.  That cute White greeting die is from the Hippo & Friends dies. 

    The dies in this bundle especially caught my eye; I think they're super versatile! I just love the window the 'Happy' die creates!  Click here to see it. 

    Check out the video below to see how this card is made. 

    Measurements:
    Black CS 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    Inside layer CS 4" X 5 1/4"
    Scraps of Rainbow glimmer paper, White, Designer paper for punches and die-cuts
