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.

  • 3 in 1 Triple Panel cards


    I made these pretty cards on last week's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' Monday night. *See video below

    The 2nd & 4th Monday's you can stamp with me Live on Facebook here.  The next one is Monday, August 10th. I post the measurements & supplies ahead of time so you can prepare.  Then afterwards you can share your cards too! 

    I chose to use a Triple Panel technique; at least that's what I'm calling it.  I saw a sketch like it and created my own version here.  You start out with 3 pieces of card stock or designer paper and cut them all the same way.  

    I used Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate for the cards above along with the Tasteful Touches bundle.  That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Birds & More dies set. 

    Measurements:
    Three pieces of card stock or DSP measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".
    Cute one full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base of each color you use.
     
    Cutting directions:
    1st cut: Cut the first small triangle off of each piece. (On the bottom right card it's the Navy piece) Make a mark 1 1/2" from the bottom left corner and 2" from the bottom right corner. Cut this triangle off of all three pieces.
    2nd cut: Make a mark from the upper left corner across at 1 3/4". Make a mark 2" from the lower left angled edge. Cut.
    The 3rd cut isn't necessary as you'll use the angled piece left from the first two cuts.
    Now you have three different colored pieces for each card. Mix & match one color per card!

    On the cards above the colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Smoky Slate and the same Tasteful Touches bundle and leaf die from above.

  • Holiday Catalog starts today! Check out this Love of Leaves card


    It's August!  And the new 2020 August – December catalog (I'm calling it the 2020 Holiday catalog)

    is live! 

    Click here to see the catalog and here to shop. 


    I'm hosting my Holiday Catalog Open House Wednesday from 2-6:30 pm.  If you're local, stop in and pick up your catalog, browse the displays, check out the ordering specials and of course eat some yummy treats.

    I will share the displays in a video on my FB page this week!

    ~~~ 

    Here's a card I made for an online swap featuring the new Love of Leaves bundle seen here.  

    I got the idea from a card in the catalog but changed it up quite a bit.  I added a piece of the beautiful Gilded Autumn Specialty designer paper behind the die-cut leaf.  Can you see the stitching around the stitched Rectangle window?  These Stitched Leaves dies stitch on the outside and on the leaf itself!  They're amazing!  

    The colors here are Mint Macaron, Soft Suede & Cajun Craze.  I'll post the card I made with the die-cut leaf itself soon.
