The Lovely Lavender Paper Pumpkin kit is stunning! *get a pre-paid subscription & earn free SAB choices!

I received my January Paper Pumpkin kit yesterday and for the first time ever, I sat down and finished the entire kit!  Here are my cards.  


Jan Lovely Lavender PP Save

The original kit makes 8 cards and 4 tags.  I added 4 card bases and a few extra coordinating cardstock strips and ended up with 12 cards!  They released the add on kit for the Lovely Lavender card kit today; it's just $11.50 and you can see it here.  It comes with everything but the stamp set & ink spot!  

*I love these cards so much I'm featuring the add-on kit in a card kit to go in February!  

Here's another alternative idea I made with the kit: 

Jan Lovely Lavender PP . Save

I used our Deckled Circle dies and the new Love of Spring 'add-on' dies for Paper Pumpkin subscribers.  The 'love' and the label die-cut are from these dies!  These dies can be seen here and are just $12.

I textured the white circle with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and added a 3/4" Garden Green strip to the Highland Heather card base. The twine is from the kit and the gems are our new Fine Shimmer Purple gems.

If you aren't a Paper Pumpkin subscriber I want to consider it. The kits are worlds better than they were in the past. I love receiving one every month and having easy creative projects I can do when I have free time.  No planning or prep; just creative fun! 

Paper Pumpkin options Save

Here are your choices when subscribing to Paper Pumpkin: 

  1. Purchase a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month subscription here.  *get free Sale-a-Bration choices through February!!
  2. Subscribe to receive a kit each month here.

I highly recommend getting the 12 month pre-paid choice.  When you do, if you add just $57 more to the 12-month subscription, you'll get 2 more for a total of 6 ($50) SAB choices + $36 hostess rewards + extra $30 hostess rewards! It's a pretty good deal!

  • NEW! Flowers of Friendship card

    I created this card for a mail out swap I participated in.  I combined the new Pale Papaya with Pool Party & Black.  What do you think?  

    Flowers of Friendship swap Save

    The stamp set is called Flowers of Friendship seen here.  It has a coordinating flower punch but I didn't use it here.  I did color the image in with Blends markers.  

    There are three new products I want to point out here: 

    1. Did you notice that pretty stitched border edge?  That is done with a new set of dies called Basic Borders seen on page 162. They're amazing and stitch on both sides of the cut. #AddtoYourList  
    2. See that black & white patterned paper? It's new and in the back of our catalog.  It's a hostess choice called Pattern Party.  You can only get it with Hostess Benefits when you place an order over $150.  It's a huge pack of 48 12 X 12" sheets and half are bright, colorful patterns and the other half are black & white.  I think they made this pack just for me!  It's my new favorite!!!
    3. Lastly that stitched label die-cut.  It's from the new Tailor Made Tags dies; seen on page166.  It has 8 sizes of stitched tags and reinforcements for the holes as well. Love them!!

  • More Sponging techniques from the Flowerbug’s

    Here are the second set of cards made by my Flowerbug's Team for our April card swap.  The theme was to use a sponging technique: 

    Candace made this one using a very soft sponging on just part of the card around the Whale.  She used the Whale Done bundle here.  It's a bundle now in the current Stampin' Up! catalog and will carry over into our new 2021 Annual Catalog. But it will no longer be a bundle at 10%.  You can see it here. 

    April Candace Whale Done Save

    She stamped and die-cut the leaves from the Forever Fern bundle seen here.  

    Next is a neat card made by Karen.  She used a masking technique to get that unique stamped & sponged strip across the card.  

    She tore a length of sticky notes and pressed onto the White card stock; on top and on bottom. She stamped and sponged on the exposed area.  Very cool! The stamp set is called Enjoy the Moment seen here. 

    April Candace Whale Done Save

    The designer paper is from the Boho Indigo Product Medley seen here.  Her card base is Misty Moonlight. 

    Next card is made by Paula.  She used the Positive Thoughts stamp set seen here.  She made the sponged center of her card a beautiful centerpiece.  To get the center she die-cut a circle from another piece of paper and sponged and stamped in the center. I believe she used Pacific Point and Mint Macaron ink.

    I'll share more amazing cards made by my talented Flowerbugs soon!

    I used the Color & Contour stamp set and all 5 In Colors as well.  I used sticky post-it notes to mask off areas as I sponged and stamped each area.  Watch the video below to catch the tips on this technique.
