Pretty Daisy Daydream card & sneak peek of upcoming Paper Pumpkin kits


I created this beautiful card using the March Daisy Daydream Paper Pumpkin kit. It's one of my alternatives made with items in the kit. 

I used the card base and the stamp set but added a few other items such as:

  • Perennial Postage die-cut that I sponged the edges on
  • leaves die-cuts from the Cheerful Daisy dies
  • Daffodil Delight ribbon (adhered loops to the back)
  • a Mossy Meadow layer
  • Adhesive-Backed Metallic gems 

Each month all of my Paper Pumpkin customers (and team members) receive a free tutorial filled with alternative ideas. It's really fun to receive a kit each month and start playing with the items in the box.  

Go here to subscribe to receive a box each month. You can manage which kits you'll receive – skipping or adding an extra.  

Here is a sneak peek of the next three months of Paper Pumpkin: 

And there is an add on just for PP subscribers called Hugs Abloom dies seen here.  This set of dies will work with each of the upcoming 3 months of kits!

  • Paper Scraps & Window dies; a perfect match up for incredible card ideas!


    I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend.  We spent it with most of my kids – played games, made meals and watched a few shows.  It was nice & relaxing.

    Here's another card I made with leftover scraps of card stock.  I shared this technique on my weekly Live video. See it here for tips.  

    It features lots of retiring product too; I checked yesterday and they're all still available!  

    I shared two versions; the blues/greens and the rainbow. Which do you prefer?  

    On this colorful version I used mostly retiring colors of Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody, Polished Pink as well as Coastal Cabana and the returning Berry Burst.  

    Here are all three of my window cards made with leftover cardstock strips.  I love using up my stash of scraps!  

    The card on the lower left features the retiring Picture This dies seen here; they're on sale too! 

    Here's the video I shared how to make the window card with the Picture This dies.  Plus two other cool projects using up card stock strips! Click on the photo below.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

  • Ready to Ride card kit to go; it’s for both guys & gals!


    I chose the Ready to Ride specialty designer paper for one of my April card kits to go; it has wonderful black foil designs on one side and fun prints on the other.  It even has a few flowers for the gals; it's not all about men here! 

    These cards include multiple fun folds as I like to do; they add a fun element for both the creator and the recipient.   

    There 2 each of 5 designs in this card kit.  There's a pre-cut kit to go option AND a PDF tutorial only option in my store here.  

    The pre-cut kit to go includes 1/2 pkg. of the Ready to Ride specialty DSP (6" X 12"), a share of both Classic Matte dots and Baker's Twine Essentials pack.  The pre-cut card pieces, die-cuts and punched pieces are all included. 

    Supplies needed:

    • Black ink & adhesives
    • a paper trimmer to cut your new DSP (using the measurements in the tutorial).
    • Greeting images – I used the Legendary Ride and Celebrating You stamp sets, but you can substitute any greeting images you already own.

    The PDF tutorial is added on free and includes step by step directions, photos, measurements and a supply list.  It's $20 in product for just $28!  The tutorial is sent to you via email immediately after payment from my Shop here.  

    The other option is my PDF tutorial seen here.  It's $15 and it's emailed to you immediately after payment.  

    The neat thing about my kits and tutorials are that you get great ideas for creating; whether it's with this theme or others. 

    *This is the kit my monthly subscribers will receive.  Interested in getting a pre-cut kit to go each month?  Email me here for that option.  

    I have two more new card kits and/or tutorials available this month. Save $$ on shipping by getting more than one!

  • Check out this fun & unique way to use up those card stock scraps!


    Look at this gorgeous card!  It's so bright, colorful and just plain fun! I made it on this week's Live video. My theme was to feature Bermuda Bay (a favorite of mine) and some sets of retiring dies I'll miss a lot! 

    I used the 'Picture This' dies seen here for the multiple circle windows.  The White delicate leaves die-cuts are from the Splendid Stems dies; which I thought were still current!  Oops! 

    Isn't it striking?  It's almost like a rainbow effect with these bright colors.  I adhered 1/4" strips of card stock to another layer of White (under the White window die).  It's slightly smaller than the top one. Watch the video here to catch my tips on this technique

    I used Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Mango Melody, Polished Pink and Berry Burst.  The only two colors that will be in the next catalog are Coastal Cabana and Berry Burst!  But I know we'll learn to love the new color line too.  It's always sad to say goodbye to some of our favorites.  

    Next I shared a fun card featuring blues/greens and the Layering Diorama dies. They're discounted to $20.30 now. 

    The other dies used are the Amazing Thanks dies seen here (these were $27 and are now just $10.80). 

    And the Brilliant Wings dies shown above which include tons of butterflies in both solid and detailed dies that layer perfectly.  They were $44 and are now just $17.60.  See them here. 

    Here's how I adhered the strips to the back of the White die-cut piece. I die-cut the Layering Diorama shape first and then added these strips on the back side. It's a super fun way to show off your die-cut shape and use up those scraps you just cannot throw out! 

    Here are both projects shown together.  I hope this inspired you to use up some of those paper scraps you're saving for 'someday'!  

    Here's the video I shared how to make the window card with the Picture This dies.  Plus two other cool projects using up card stock strips! Click on the photo below.  Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!
