Painted Poppies in a window


Adding dimension and interest to a clean & simple card can be a challenge.  Adding a window with the Stitched Nested Label dies does it easily.

I had this window piece in my bag of White scraps, so it was extra easy to make this card. I used the Stitched Nested Labels; which are a 'must have' in my opinion. Next time you want a die-cut, consider die-cutting it in the center of a larger piece so you can use both pieces! 

The top White piece is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4", the second White layer is 3 5/8" X 4 7/8".  The Granny Apple Green piece is 1 1/2" X 5 1/2".

Just like yesterday's card I used my Dark Poppy Parade blends marker to color the new 1/4" White Crinkled ribbon for the bow. Both of the images are stamped in Black Memento ink. I colored the green leaves and bud with a Granny Apple Green Blends marker.  The poppy flower is colored by stamping with one of the stamps in the Painted Poppies set.  

The greeting is from the Sending you Thoughts stamp set; it's free with any $50 order right now during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  You can see all of the free items here. 

I love the new Peaceful Poppies suite and have created 10 project sheets to send to everyone who places an order in January.  Details below:

  • Sweetest Christmas card kit to go; opt in by Nov 17th! Or choose the PDF tutorial option.


    I have two different card kits to go in November; one Christmas and another 'all occasion'.  See them both (& more) here!  Each one also has a PDF tutorial option if you'd rather get that. 

    I chose the Sweetest Christmas designer paper as my inspiration for these special fun fold cards.  Here's a close up of one: 

    Each card is a unique fancy fold; showing off the fun patterns in the Sweetest Christmas designer paper. 

    I have a limited supply of this pre-cut kit as the Adhesive-backed sequins are unavailable right now; luckily I ordered some before they ran out. So be sure to order this ASP if you want it. 

    This kit to go includes the PDF tutorial, the 10 card pre-cut cards kit, a share of the Sweetest Christmas designer paper, green 3/8" ribbon and Adhesive-backed sequins plus 10 envelopes. 

    The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after payment.  It includes photos, step by step directions, measurements and a supplies list.  You'll use the measurements in it to cut your new designer paper; everything else is cut, die-cut or punched for you.

    Here's a peek at the November Paper Pumpkin kit; it's holiday tags!  

    Put some sparkle into your Christmas giving this year with these festive, DIY tags! Plus, you can shop coordinating North Pole Sacks to create extra special gifts this holiday season. This fun add-on coordinates with November’s glittery tags and die-cut pieces from October’s Ho Ho Ho Paper Pumpkin kit. See them here.

        

    Did you know that my Paper Pumpkin subscribers get a ton of alternate ideas every single month?!  So if it's tags like this month, you can look forward to receiving fabulous card ideas, treat projects and possibly a scrapbook layout too! Subscribe here.

    Or purchase a pre-paid subscription here.  Choose from 1, 3 or 6 month plans.   

    Here's one of my alternative idea for the Ho Ho Ho kit.  I used one of the die-cut pieces in the kit to sponge snowflakes onto the card base.  Almost all of the rest of it is from the kit!  It's so fun to play with the elements and come up with something new.  

    And below is a peek at the alternative ideas my subscribers received for the October Ho Ho Ho kit. There was a refill for this kit but it sold out already.  Refill kits are only available for current subscribers.

  • Sweet Candy Canes card; unique Christmas color combo


    Hey; I can add photos today!  Here's a project from my stamp a stack class we held last weekend.  

    It features the Sweet Candy Canes bundle seen here.  


    The colors are Real Red & Coastal Cabana.  I used the Timber 3D embossing folder for the background texture; stamping the leaves before embossing. 

    The greeting piece is a simple rectangle but I rounded the ends with a circle punch!
