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"

  • Gorgeous Prairie Grass Joy Fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video.  

    Isn't it pretty?  The colors include Fresh Freesia with Black accents. All of my projects featured the brand new Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.  

    I also used the amazing Thoughtful Journey DSP seen here.  It's absolutely perfect for scene builder stamps like this one and has some of the best and easiest backgrounds to start with.  

    This card is called a 'Joy Fold' – who knows why but it's actually one fold name I haven't forgotten. Basically it has two flaps that overlap each other. It gives you multiple opportunities to use your Designer Papers or textured layers.  

    The embossing folder here is called Glass & Gardens seen here.  It's unavailable right now but you can add yourself to the list to be notified when it's back in stock.  

    Here's the free project sheet for this card with measurements, directions and supplies.  Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Prairie Grass JoyFold card

    And here's the video below where I share two other cards featuring this amazing Prairie Grass stamp set.

  • Wow; Mixed Florals Reverse Image Technique with window sheets!


    I'm continuing to share our July team swaps featuring window sheets. 

    Look at the stunning card made by Paula. For her card swap she made a Reverse Image technique cased from Kylie Bertucci.  

    The stamp & die bundle is called Mixed Florals and can be seen here.

    She used Crushed Curry for her card base and Floral Impressions designer paper.  I'm so impressed by her gorgeous coloring with the Blends markers!  What pretty shading she achieved! 

    Below you can see how she also colored the reverse side so when you flipped up the card front it's just as pretty on the inside!  So neat.  I also love the diagonal slant on the front. 

    The card opens to reveal 3 layers!  

    Measurements:

    • Crushed Curry card base- 1 at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2", another at 7 1/4" X 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2" (cut on the diagonal) and two extra slat pieces to cover both front & inside of the card. 
    • DSP – 4" X 5 1/4" X 3 pieces
    • White inside 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"; plus die-cuts 


    Thanks so much for your creative & beautiful card Paula!
