Spooky Treats alternative card with Aspen Tree dies

Here's one of the projects I shared on Tuesday's FB Live video this week.  I focused on the Spooky Treats Paper Pumpkin kit.  

Good news!  This kit is still available – you can get the full kit here.  Or if you're a subscriber you can get the refill here.

 In the video seen here, I share a bunch of alternative projects with both my Paper Pumpkin subscribers AND my Flowerbug's Team. 

Here's the stamp set that is included in the kit; it's so cute!

I look forward to getting these kits in the mail each month.  I know that October's kit is Christmas cards.  We always get a hint on what it will be. That way you can opt out or even choose to get more than one kit!

You have a few choices when purchasing Paper Pumpkin.  You can subscribe to get one kit each month here.  Or purchase a pre-paid subscription here.  You can choose from a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month pre-paid subscription.  

You can see how I stamped the inside below.  The card base is Orchid Oasis.

I used three inks and our blending brushes to create the smooth background under the Aspen Tree dies. I share a few tips on getting smooth results in the video.

  • Christmas card swaps!

    I love sharing the cards my Flowerbug's make for our Team swaps.  We had a great turnout for the October meeting and swap. 

    Marilyn made this first card using the Welcoming Woods stamp set.  Her colors are Soft Succulent, White & Evening Evergreen.

    Oct Evergreen Marilyn Save

    Products used are all from the 2021-22 Annual Stampin' Up! catalog:

    • Wintry 3D embossing pair seen here
    • Hippo & Basic Border dies
    • Tidings of Christmas 6 X 6" DSP 
    • 2021-23 In Color Shimmer Vellum
    • Soft Succulent ribbon

    And here's the inside. She punched a strip of Evening Evergreen CS with the Evergreen Border punch and then textured it with the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder!

    Next is a card made by Paula featuring the Tidings & Trimmings bundle in the Annual catalog.  

    Oct Evergreen Marilyn Save

    Her colors include Real Red, Evening Evergreen & White. The star is cut from the Be Dazzling specialty paper in the previous Sale-a-Bration catalog. 

    I love how she wove the ribbon through the scalloped openings in the die-cut.  This die is from the Scalloped Contour dies seen here.

    Next is a pretty card made by Mary featuring the Evergreen Elegance stamp set; also in the Annual Catalog.  

    It's a fun fold card where you fold back the front flap of the card.

    The designer paper is also the Tidings of Christmas and that nice large White die-cut is from the Seasonal Labels dies seen here.  They coordinate with the wonderful Christmas Season stamp set.

  • Nature’s Harvest card with embossed vellum

    I just realized I hadn't shared this pretty card we made in September at my Card Clubs.  It features the Nature's Harvest bundle seen here in the 2021 Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. 

    Nature's Harvest August Club Save

    The colors include Bumblebee, Just Jade, White, Gold & Vellum. When I use vellum I always think 'Why don't I use it more?'  It can be the perfect layer without adding 'too much'. 

    Details:

    • The Vellum card stock is embossed with the Timber 3D embossing folder.
    • The coneflowers are colored with Stampin' Blends markers. 
    • That glitzy wheat stalk is part of the Harvest dies and from the Be Dazzling specialty paper that was available during Sale-a-Bration. 
    • The greeting is from the Delicate Dahlias (Sale-a-Bration) stamp set on a Tasteful Label die-cut 

    Nature's Harvest Save

    Measurements:

    • Bumblebee card stock 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
      • Vellum CS 3 3/4" X 5"
      • White scraps for circle, greeting and flower
      • Be Dazzling paper scrap for stems
      • Penguin Playmates DSP 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"

  • Christmas Season Gatefold card with a Designer Paper twist; FB Live video!

    We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'.  It's at 7:30 pm CT here.  

    Christmas Season FB Live Save

    It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured. 

    For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog. 

    Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.
