Get more cards in the Gorgeous Expressions of Kindness card kit


This stunning Expressions of Kindness card kit from our Kit Collection was released last month. I made time to play with it a few days ago and it's absolutely gorgeous! 

I liked the cards so well I wanted to make more than the 8 cards in the kit.  It's fun to figure out how to extend the beautiful prints on the cards and envelopes.  I decided to keep it simple and add extra card bases and leave the envelopes intact. 

See this kit here online: 

This first set of cards are almost exactly as the kit suggested except I saved the gold foil leaves for a different card.  There was enough ribbon to add a few knots on each of the above cards and still have enough for the rest of the 8 cards seen below. 

Below are all three individual cards I made. 

For the following two cards I cut the full printed card bases in half. I added 4 white card bases for the left card below. I felt the printed card with the gold foil accents was pretty enough for the ribbon & greeting image.  


For the card on the right above I cut down the card front to 4" X 5 1/4" and layered it onto 4 Blackberry Bliss card bases as seen below.  This is where I added the gold foil leaves with the greeting. 

You can see this beautiful kit here.  It's $23 and includes the 8 cards & envelopes, a stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink spot, gems, White ribbon and adhesive.

Here's the stamp set included in this kit. The flower head fits on the purple flowers to add detail.

There are two more new kits released in July. Both are card kits – one geared for kids and the other a pretty floral kit.

  • The Branching Out bundle is retiring! Check out this fun fold card with video tutorial!


    We made this card earlier this fall and I realize I haven’t shared it with you yet. I also made a video too – scroll down….

    The colors include Pecan Pie with Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Shaded Spruce. I used various wood-like designer series papers for the side panel. See how it has a double fold?

    Also notice the ‘white’ snow on the pine boughs plus snow in the background. You can achieve that without heat embossing. We used White Craft ink and stamped over the pine. Easy & a fun accent!

    The stamp set is retiring but the dies are not. The bundle is on the last chance list now. Click here to see it.
    It’s been one of my favorite products in our Holiday catalog this year. It’s timeless and can be used for fall, winter or Christmas!

    Besides the video tutorial here’s a free project sheet for you too. Click here to download or print it.

    I’m glad the dies are not retiring but I have to say the stamp set is among my top 5 favorites!

    Below is the video tutorial which gives you tips on stamping the branches with the pines and pine cones.

  • Easy Holiday cards made from tags! Free project sheet & video tutorial.


    I look forward to receiving my Paper Pumpkin boxes each month. November’s Wrapped in Cheer kit featured holiday tags and I couldn’t waste an opportunity to make cards from them. I need a lot more Christmas cards than I do tags!

    I didn’t change the tag from the original except for the linen thread bow at the top. But I did add it to a Basic Beige textured layer and then onto a Cherry Cobbler card base.
    Now that is an easy card!

    To create the colored leaves inside the card I used the empty piece of paper from the kit where the leaves had been removed. I’m always looking for easy ways to add to the inside of my cards.

    There were two different tags in this kit. Aren’t they pretty?

    I used the embossing folder called Traditional Wreath 3D folder; it can be seen here. It’s discounted and available while supplies last.
    *The greeting is from the stamps in the kit.

    Below is the video tutorial for this card and more information on Paper Pumpkin.

  • Wrapped in Cheer tags for Christmas


    I shared the November Paper Pumpkin kit on last week’s live video. I just love receiving my crafty box in the mail each month! Easy crafting without a plan or step it up and use your creativity to change the projects.

    There were two different tags in this kit and each one includes multiple pieces. Aren’t they pretty? The embossing folder is called Traditional Wreath 3D folder and can be seen here. It’s discounted and available while supplies last.
    *The greeting is from the stamps in the kit.

    I used the tags to make Christmas cards which you can see below. All I did was add a textured layer and a card base. *I’ll share more details tomorrow.

    Remember that each month my subscribers and Team receive my bonus projects PDF. Lots of unique ideas to create with the contents of each box. Subscribe to Paper Pumpkin here.

    Below is the video where I share this kit, last months and how to make the cards too.
