And today’s card does just that. Remember earlier in the week I cut apart the two envelopes from the March-2018 “May Good Things Grow” Paper Pumpkin kit and told you to save them? Well here’s the card made from a leftover piece. The card front is one of the card designs in the kit and […]
Birthday cards
Dear Friends deserve gorgeous cards, for any reason!
Today’s cards used the Paper Pumpkin “May good things grow” supplies that were designed for the front of the envelope, not the inside card. But it was too pretty not to be used on not just one card, but 2! Here’s the original envelope design from the kit: I carefully cut the envelope apart (save […]
Another may good things grow card
Today’s card follows the original card ideas (card on the left below) from the May Good Things Grow, March 2018 Paper Pumpkin kit, at least in spirit. Instead of using the Crumb Cake card as a card, I cut it in half and layered it under the Flirty Flamingo dots paper. I layered these on […]
May good things grow, all year round
And fall is a wonderful time to grow all kinds of vegetables and flowers. Unfortunately, I have a brown thumb and whatever survives in my garden is despite my valiant efforts! But I keep trying. Fortunately though, I can make fall cards, and I love doing it. I had one more unopened “fall” Paper Pumpkin kit […]
Nature’s Poem has beautiful fall leaves
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! […]
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. […]
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 […]
A little birdie told me…
This was the original card layout I had in mind last week hoping that I could adapt it to the upcoming FMS350 sketch. I posted my final FMS350 here, but today I wanted to share the original card I designed. I used the earlier FMS347 sketch (I didn’t get to post a card for that […]
Ah, FMS350 didn’t disappoint me!
I was hoping that this week’s FMS sketch would fit the card idea floating in my head and it did! I was out of town until Sunday, so I didn’t have a lot of time to put my card together in time for the challenge. I made another Animal Expedition card, this time with the […]
