I got this paper, but wasn’t sure I’d really like it. Yes, I do that a lot, especially when Stampin’ Up! has their designer series paper sales. It turned out, I now love this paper! This is my first card with it, but I already have several others planned with other pieces of the DSP! […]
Annual Catalog
How do you make a 3×3 cards into regular fall card?
Actually very easily! The Paper Pumpkin “Layered Leaves” September-2017 kit supplies were for eight 3″x3″ cards and matching envelopes to accompany a matching gift box. But what if you didn’t need 3″x3″ cards (they don’t meet the U.S. post office minimum size for mailing..hmm)? Turn them into beautiful regular size cards! That’s what I’ve been […]
Wood Textures just perfect for fall cards!
I’ve had my Wood Textures DSP for quite a while, but haven’t used it yet. But fall colors and cards seemed a great way to use some of that paper. I used two different wood textures to make these full size cards using the Paper Pumpkin “Layered Leaves” from my September 2017 Paper Pumpkin kit. […]
Oh my, it’s fall already? How about a card to celebrate?
Well, yes and no. September is traditionally the beginning of fall, but not in Texas with our temperatures still in the high 80’s. And we still have to get through hurricane season…September is usually the most active month for Texas bound hurricanes. Fingers crossed that we escape them this year. I decided to pull out […]
You make me so happy…
That’s how I feel about last month’s Paper Pumpkin kit! It was so easy to create alternative cards with this kit that I still have more to show you this week! Meanwhile, Happy Labor Day to all my U.S. friends…may you “labor” by creating many cards today – LOL! Today’s card I CASEd from Nicole Scholet de […]
Another Blissful Bloom, but this time with FMS352
Yesterday I promised you an interesting Animal Expedition DSP with the Blissful Blooms paper pumpkin kit. But instead, I wanted to show you my FMS352 sketch challenge card. Don’t worry, I’ll post the Jungle animals and flowers card next week. I started out by cutting the Blissful Bloom cards in half and using bottom half on […]
Friends like you deserve Blissful Blooms
I wish I could send all my dear friends a beautiful bouquet of flowers each week to brighten their lives and homes! But since that isn’t possible (both because of distance and cost), I created this beautiful card using the leftover piece from yesterday’s Blissful Bloom card. Here’s the diagram I posted of how I […]
Thinking of you with Blissful Blooms
I’m still working on alternative ideas to this month’s Blissful Blooms Paper Pumpkin kit. Today’s card uses the FMS348 sketch from several weeks ago for the layout. I started with the below card base and cut it the front off (be sure to save the back for another card idea). Then I cut the card […]
FMS 351, meet August Paper Pumpkin
Oh, so many craft supplies, so little time. Is that one of common things you think to yourself? Me, too! I haven’t been taking advantages of my Paper Pumpkin kits, but I fell in to love with this August’s Paper Pumpkin kit. It’s so simple to make the 10 cards; aren’t they simply gorgeous?! So I decided […]
