Today I have a few special fun fold cards made with the Turtle & Friends bundle seen here. They were for a Flowerbug's Team swap we held last month with an 'Animal Fun Fold' theme.
The first card was made by Paula. Her cute card is called a Double Dutch Door fold.
I love the rounded corners on her front layer and the sweet background made with images from the Happy Hedgehogs stamp set. She sponged the sky & grass too.
Measurements:
Evening Evergreen card base 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" tall scored at 5 1/2", and the lower doors piece is 8 1/2" X 3" wide scored at 2 1/8" & 6 3/8"
White upper stamped layer is 4" X 2 3/4"
Lower DSP (Pattern Party host) layer is 1 3/4" X 2 3/4
Granny Apple Green inside is 4" X 5 1/4"
To put this card together you add the scored horizontal piece to the vertical card base and add the inside layer over it.
She used the Expressions in Ink specialty DSP in the annual catalog for her card front. She also used the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder for the Garden Green strip.
Measurements:
Garden Green 2 pieces at 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" plus a 1 1/2" X 4" piece for the embossed strip
Whisper White inside is 3 3/4" X 11" scored at 1" & 6"
The Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit for March includes watercolor prints and designs inspired by the beautiful nature around us to create nine cards and coordinating envelopes. And paper pieces that perfectly coordinate with the amazing New Horizons Suite Collection seen here in the January–June 2022 Mini Catalog.
Don’t forget the extra FREE stampset in March (yes—that’s two stamp sets in one kit!) as our way of saying THANK YOU to all of our wonderful Paper Pumpkin subscribers.
Details on this kit:
This month’s kit contains enough elements to create 9 cards—3 each of 3 designs—and 9 coordinating envelopes. This all-inclusive kit includes printed card bases, die-cut paper pieces, embellishments, adhesive, and more!

There will be a change in Paper Pumpkin pricing going forward. Here's what Stampin' Up! has recently stated:
Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit. On 1 March 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price.
But, there is a way to get the current prices for Paper Pumpkin and save money going forward. Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required.
So here's my suggestion for you:
Purchase a pre-paid subscription in February for 3 month, 6 months, or 12 months and get it at the current lower price for that entire time period! Go here to order yours.
Plus with a pre-paid subscription you can earn free Sale-a-Bration choices at the same time. It's a WIN WIN choice!
And besides the free Sale-a-Bration choice you'll also receive free gifts (Gingham embossing folder & a calendar kit!) from me with your online order in February. See details below.
Watch this short video to see what is included in each kit:
Top reasons to get our Paper Pumpkin kits:

It's a fun surprise each month! But they share hints before the kit mails too!
Here's the bonus project I created with the Hugs & Kisses February kit. It's so fun to use the elements in the kit to create something fun & different!
I changed them up a bit but kept the same premise of a die-cut circle with these gorgeous Honeybee Blooms dies in silhouette. I added a bit of color on the White layer before texturing them. The card above features the Gingham embossing folder.
Here are the 6 cards I made; one with each color of Designer Paper in the Simply Marbelous DSP pack. This beautiful paper is FREE through February, 2022 with any $50 Stampin' Up! order. See it here.
For each card I used one of the greetings in the Honeybee Home stamp set which is part of the Honeybee Home bundle seen here. The greeting dies are from the Ornate Frames dies in the Annual catalog seen here.
This incredible Simply Marbelous 6 X 6" DSP is still available; if you want it I'd get it now while they still have a supply. It's always possible it could run out before the end of February.
One neat thing about this pretty designer paper is each sheet has a softer, less distinct pattern and this beautiful swirly pattern. And each color is a combination of light & dark hues so it works with many, many shades of each color!
New Product Releases! Magnet Board kit, new Blends markers & the All Together bundle & DSP
There are some wonderful new products out this month; just in time to take advantage of Sale-a-Bration too! Here's an update for you.
The All Together collection includes a new stamp & dies bundle, fabulous Black & White 6 X 6" designer series paper and a new set of flesh toned blends. Click here to see it all.
In the photo below I colored one of the sheets of the All Together DSP with the 3 lightest set of the new Blends plus the Ivory too. I think these are also great for coloring animals or when you need a neutral color tone.
