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!

    Details:

    • I also used a new and FREE Designer Paper called Paper Blooms here.  The colors are Seaside Spray with Navy & White.  I use this pretty color combo often. 
    • Can you tell it's a fun fold?  The Seaside Spray is 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  I added texture with the Meadow Moments embossing folder.  The Navy layer is a quarter sheet 5 1/2" X 4 1/4". 
    • I punched a white Small Bloom punch and added a pearl to the center.  It's sponged for a bit of color.  
    • The main image is stamped and punched out with the Rectangular Postage Punch. 

    Here's a close up of this lovely stamped image.

  • Corner Bouquet Triple Panel card & a tour of my studio & new catalog launch video

    Tuesday I held my new 2021 New Catalog Launch party and shared a virtual tour of my studio and Sale-a-Bration & Spring project displays.  I did have a little issue with a catch in my throat at the end but most of it's good.  Ha! 

    Below is a fun card showing you a way to use a large stamped image.  You can do it two different ways:

    Stamp first and then cut into three strips.  Or cut into strips, arrange together and stamp all at once.  This is what I did using my Stamparatus so I could re-stamp a few times for a nice dark image.  I've sure been using my Stamparatus a lot lately.  Do you have one?  It's so helpful!

    After I stamped the main image I let it dry a bit and then ran all three strips through the die-cutting machine to add texture.  I used a brand new 3D embossing folder called Painted Texture. 

    These colors are Purple Posy, Night of Navy & Coastal Cabana.  I was inspired to combine these colors by one of our designer paper packs in the Annual Catalog called Playing with Patterns. 

    The greeting is from the Enjoy the Moment stamp set in the new 2021 Spring Catalog.

  • True Love Designer Paper; GORGEOUS!

    The True Love Designer paper is my very favorite designer paper in the 2021 Spring Catalog; it has gorgeous Black & White patterns.  I have always found Black & White  paper to be the easiest to work with since I can add almost any color I want to set it off.  Bright or soft colors all work wonderfully! 

    I made this card for another online swap a few weeks ago.  I just love the easy layout and how it makes the best use of both the Designer paper AND your card stock.  

    True Love swap Save

    Products used:

    Black, White & Magenta Madness CS, True Love DSP, Black ink, Black glittered ribbon, Sweet Ice Cream stamp set , Treasured Tags pick a punch for White CS strip, Matte Black dots 

    Since Stampin' Up! had to stop offering their Whisper White card stock (manufacturer went out of business) we now have Basic White products.  And they're all available again!  Yay!  Check out this flyer here.  Download BASIC-WHITE-ANNOUNCEMENT-FLYER_US

    Paper saving tip: 

    With this layout you can get sixteen 3" square pieces from a 12" sheet of DSP; or 4 pieces from a 6 X 6" piece. 

    You can get 5 pieces of the main colored layer from a sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock.  The cutting template for this is below; I love to use it for my inside layer especially.
