Free Sale-a-Bration choices with a pre-paid Paper Pumpkin subscription! Ends Wednesday!


Every month I share a bunch of alternative, bonus projects with my Paper Pumpkin subscribers and my Team.  The kits are fine as is but it's fun to create something new from the stamps & elements in the kits!  

Here's one I shared on last week's FB Live.  I love the Sweet Sunflowers kit!  

We always get a sneak peak of each month's kit so we have the opportunity to adjust our subscription. We can pause that month or choose to get  more than one kit! 

The monthly kits are available until the 10th of each month, so the decision to opt in for it or pause has to be made by then.  

The Sweet Sunflowers kit included a bonus of 10 free gold foil honeycomb sheets this time.  I used them as a stencil with Blending Brushes on the front and the inside of the card.  

The card bases are patterned on both the front and the back! So I was able to get both of the cards below from one card.  I cut it in half and die-cut the two layers with the Deckle dies. 

Which one do you prefer?  

I used Crushed Curry ink on the left card below and Balmy Blue on the right card.  I cut one of the fold foil honeycomb sheets into quarters and used two of them on these cards, trimming them apart with a paper snips. I shared how I made these cards and two more in the video below.  Or click here to watch it. 

Below you can see how many free Sale-a-Bration items you can choose with a pre-paid Paper Pumpkin subscription.  It really is the best time to get one! Why not earn free products with your purchase?!

Click here to get your pre-paid subscription. 

I order a 6 month pre-paid subscription twice a year; once in the summer during SAB and once in January or February during SAB.  I love this option to earn free products! 

Did you know that when you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber you can get refills from most of the monthly kits?  The refills are usually around $11 and include everything in the original kit except the ink spot & stamp set.  So once you have the full kit getting a refill means you can make more of the original projects or alternatives easily!  See the optional refills here. 

Unfortunately they do not expect to have refills for this kit; it was extremely popular!  But if they do they'll be on the link above.  

Each month the kits get better & more fun to create with!  They knocked it out of the park with this one! 

 

Here's a peak of last month's alternative projects my subscribers received.


I loved this kit too!  They were wonderful, versatile cards.

  • Cutest Crew card swap


    Here’s the card I made for our latest Team card swap. What do you think of the color combo?

    As you can see, I used the Cutest Crew bundle here. I’m a cat owner so I chose the cats. My colors include Crushed Curry, Smoky Slate, White and Basic Gray.

    This adorable bundle is in our Online store and was available last week but now the dies are out of stock again. I have a feeling this is how it will be for awhile. We all love our pets! You can see the Cutest Crew bundle here or the stamp set alone here. *Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get notified when it’s back in stock.

    The largest card base is Crushed Curry and the next layer is Smoky Slate which is the part that opens.

    I colored in the images with Blends markers. It was fun to color them in cat like patterns.

    Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you like my cards.

  • More Team card swaps


    Today I’m sharing the other card swaps my Team members made featuring Online Exclusive products.

    First is Karen’s card made with the Homemade Sweetness suite seen here.

    It’s a book-binding fold where the left side is adhered together and just the right part opens.

    Check out the embossed layers with the Ladybug Picnic embossing folder. It’s so neat! Unfortunately it’s out of stock right now; but it will be back. If you want it be sure to add your email to the product to be informed when it’s back.

    Next is Candy’s card made with the Cutest Crew stamp set seen here. She wanted to use the dies but they were out of stock. They came back for two days and are now out of stock again! Popular set!

    Her colors are stunning! Bubble Bath with Smoky Slate and White. She stamped the kittens on the Nested Essentials die-cut and colored them in with Smoky Slate & Bubble Bath Blends markers. The embossing folder is the Hearts of Love embossing folder.

    ~~~

    Here’s Joan’s card featuring the Splash of Sparkles specialty designer paper.

    She layered 3 different pieces of this foiled paper with Pretty in Pink before adding her greeting layer on top. Neat layout!

    ~~~

    Lastly is Jess’s card featuring the Lovely Stripes embossing folder seen here.

    The vertical strips of DSP are from the Made with Love. I like how she alternated the DSP strips with the card stock strips. This is the first swap she joined; she did a great job!

    Her greeting is from the Cutest Crew stamp set.

    That’s it for our March swaps. I hope you are inspired by their creations!

  • Check out these Team Swaps!


    The swap theme for my Flowerbug’s in March was to use our favorite Online Exclusive product. I’ll be sharing them today and Wednesday this week.

    First is a pretty card made by Jacki featuring the Sunflower 3D embossing folder seen here. It’s currently in low inventory; they sure have trouble keeping these in stock!

    She used White with Crumb Cake for a super clean look. The die-cut shape on the textured Sunflower layer is from the Branching Out dies seen here. One of my absolute favorite sets of dies I consider a ‘must have!’

    I also love how she added the wrap of Linen Thread around the greeting layer; simple but so effective!

    ~~~

    Her sister Jonna made this next card. Did they decide to both use the Sunflower 3D folder?!

    Her card is all Vanilla. Another clean & simple card; both are so elegant! I find when you use mostly one neutral color the card feels quite sophisticated. The greetings on both cards are from the recently retired Branching Out stamp set.

    ~~~

    Next is a pretty card from Kim.

    She used the pretty Floral Charm designer paper here with Early Espresso, Bubble Bath & Pecan Pie card stock. This pretty DSP will be on the retiring list in the next week or so. The beautiful leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony dies seen here. They are out of stock currently but they’ll be back! The greeting punch is our Heartfelt Hexagon punch seen here. I love this punch!

    Tomorrow I’ll share lots more of the fabulous swap cards made by my Team.
