It’s the last day to get January’s Paper Pumpkin kit! *add on dies to match!


Today is the last day to opt in on January's Paper Pumpkin kit featuring Lovely Lavender. 

They've announced the next three month's themes of Paper Pumpkin and there's a cool add-on die set called Love of Spring. These dies coordinate with the January, February & March kits!  It's only $12 but you do need to be a Paper Pumpkin subscriber to get them.  See them here. 

Not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber yet?  It's so fun to get a ready made kit in the mail each month! I highly recommend choosing a pre-paid subscription during Sale-a-Bration.  If you choose a 3, 6 or 12 month pre-paid subscription you will get a free Sale-a-Bration choice!  Or more than one if you choose the 6 or 12 month subscription.  See the available Sale-a-Bration choices here: 

It's the best way to go if you like to receive a crafty surprise each month. click here to get one.

We're usually told what the them is before the 10th of each month so we can opt out if we do not want it. Which kits you receive is totally under your control!  

Once you're a subscriber you can get any of the add-ons or the refill kits. They often add the refills to the monthly kits after the subscription period is over.  These refills have everything you need to make more of the original kit projects except for the stamps or ink. It's wonderful if you really love the projects in the kit!

  • Another ‘WOW’ card swap with the Beautiful Butterflies stained glass technique


    Today I have another stunning Team card swap made by Tracey featuring Window Sheets. She featured the Beautiful Butterflies bundle seen here:

    Her colors include Shy Shamrock with Petunia Pop, Black, White & Gold embossing. 

    Here's how she made this card:

    1. Texture the White layer with the Hybrid embossing folder; add to the Petunia layer and the card base. 
    2. Ink the butterfly image in Versamark and stamp on the Window sheet. Heat emboss with Gold embossing powder. Die-cut with the coordinating die.  *she did say some of the embossing powder on the edge frayed off when it went through the die-cut.  
    3. Color the back of the butterfly with Blends markers.  Adhere to the White cardstock layer with Foam Strip adhesive in the center only. Add the center 'body' die-cut.
    4. Heat emboss the greeting onto the Black strip with White embossing powder.  Finish with gems. 

    Here's the full bundle that includes stamps, dies and a Hybrid embossing folder. What is a 'Hybrid Embossing folder?  It's where you can cut AND emboss/texture at the same time!

    And look how she finished the inside!  She used the Baby Wipe technique to achieve a multi-colored butterfly. 

    Thanks so much for your gorgeous card Tracey!

  • Amazing Trusty Tools bridge card swap with window sheet technique; so cool!!


    Look at this incredible card Jacki made for our Team swap in July.  This month's theme was to feature window sheets.

    She used the Timeless Plaid and the Notes & Totes stamp set here.  Her colors include Black, Misty Moonlight, Silver Foil and Pecan Pie. 

    Here's the view when you flip the top layer up:

    She paid special attention to both sides of her bridge, adding the card stock & DSP layers to both the inside and the front!

    That dotted die-cut background is part of this bundle!  She really made the most of the dies here!  See the dies here and the coordinating stamp set here. 

    This is what it looks like fully opened. The inside greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set. 

    Measurements:

    • Black card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4" – from the top, cut to the score line on both sides at 1 1/4"
    • Window sheet – 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
    • Misty Moonlight – greeting strip 2 3/8" X 1 1/8", center is 2 3/4" X 4", 4 sides are 1 1/8" X 4", center is 2 3/4" X 4", inside back is 5 1/4" X 4"
    • White inside 2 7/8" X 3 3/4", dotted die-cut 2 1/2" X 3 3/4", greeting strip 3 1/4" X 1"
    • DSP strips 6 pieces at 1" X 3 3/4"

  • Blending tips with this cute Cheers & Sips card; video & free project sheet too!


    Today I'm sharing a pretty & bright color combo for this cheery card using the Cheers & Sips stamp & die bundle. I made it on last week's Live video. 

    The colors include Peach Pie with Melon Mambo. It's a simple layout but the stamped images sure make it special.  

    The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies.  I stamped the images in Black Memento ink and colored them in with our Blends markers.  I love them because you rarely get any lines when coloring.  If you like to color you NEED the Blends markers!  Watch the video to see how to blend easily.  

    I created a free project sheet with measurements & a supplies list. Click on the following link to print or download it.  Download Cheers to You card

    The Cheers & Sips dies are currently out of stock but they'll likely be back around July 14th. See the bundle here

    Below is the video for this card and TWO more with this neat bundle and the coordinating Celebratory Sips DSP seen here.   I love this colorful & unique paper; it's something completely different!
