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!

  • Stitched Window cards; FB Live Replay


    This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies.  The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here.  Be sure to follow my page so you get notified! 

    My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies.  But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards: 

    I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock.  Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done!  So quick & easy! 

    Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.  

    Measurements:
    • Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
    • Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
    • Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide

  • Love of Leaves; make one cut and get two cards!


    Last week I shared a card featuring the Love of Leaves bundle.  *You can see it below.  Now I'm sharing the other card I made with the inside of the die-cut.  Cut once and make two cards using these stitched leaf dies! 

    The Love of Leaves bundle is going to be a big favorite this fall!  See it here. 

    Details

    • The die-cut is Soft Suede and the card base is Cajun Craze. 
    • The Pretty Peacock designer paper is from the new Magic in the Night Halloween Designer Series paper seen here!  As you can see, it's not just for Halloween!  
    • I also used the new Celebration Label dies seen here; I love the stitched shape of these!  
    • The stamped leaves image is created with the Life is Beautiful stamp set.

    Below you'll see the other card I made with the outside or window when I cut the leaf above.

  • Life is Beautiful with a beautiful masked & sponged window technique!


    I like to join many online card swaps in groups with friends from all over the country; especially when new catalogs come out. 

    Here is a swap I made with my Life is Beautiful stamp set; the set I helped create as a Million Dollar Achiever with Stampin' Up!  I achieved this over a year ago but the stamp set just came out this month.  You can order it now here. 

    I chose to use Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso and Very Vanilla card stock. The inks are Bermuda Bay, Early Espresso and Calypso Coral.  I absolutely LOVE creating masked windows! Sponging is a learned art and I have some great tips for you.  I shared this card on Facebook Live Tuesday, August 11th and uploaded the video to YouTube below.  

    This card is one I am so pleased with.  It shows off the pretty images included in the set so perfectly. 

    Do you make doubles or more of your favorite cards?  I actually really like making multiples of the same card.  But when you're doing a time consuming technique like this one it can little 'old'!  However, using the Stamparatus when making multiple cards is the ONLY way to go!  It sure makes quick work of making many of the same card.  I don't usually like to show my 'messy desk' pictures but you can see what happens to my desk area when I'm working! It gets smaller and so crowded! Ha!


    Watch the video below for step by step tutorial on making this pretty card.  Plus I share tons of card ideas for this pretty and versatile stamp set!
