March Paper Pumpkin Alternative Projects

Hello Stampin' Friends!

I am posting this is little late, since the April Paper Pumpkin will be here soon, but I wanted to share my March Paper Pumpkin Alternative Projects with you!

The March kit was so fun! It was nature themed and not only did it contain the supplies for 8 cards, it came with 4 free stencils and a Stampin' Sponge! How cool is that?

I usually do a zoom class for all of my Paper Pumpkin Subscribers to show them alternate uses for the kit contents. I add a few extra supplies to make the projects, but the majority of the card supplies are from the Paper Pumpkin kit. Our class was just last week and we made 3 projects together via zoom, and I made a tag with some of the extra pieces from the kit.

Here is a photo of the projects!

The three projects we made are from left to right: a travel journal/photo album, a card and a back pack gift card holder. The tag was an extra little project that I threw together with the left over pieces. Here are some close-ups!

The travel journal was really fun to make! We used padding compound to turn pieces of cardstock into a notebook! And the card gave us some great practice with the stencils and sponges (I cut my sponge into 6 wedges so that I could use it for several different colors). The back pack is perfect for graduations! You can put money or a gift card inside. And the little tag is pretty cute too!

If you would like to take part in my Paper Pumpkin Alternative Projects Virtual classes, all you need to do is subscribe through me! Here is the link! And that is it! Since this is a Virtual class, you don't even need to live by me to participate! After you subscribe, I will send you all of the details for the class! If you have any questions or would like more information, comment below!

Thanks for stopping by!

Monday Montage Week #186

Hello and thank you for joining us on our blog hop today! The weather has been flip flopping a bit these days. One day is sunny and beautiful, and the next is rainy and snowy! What is a girl to do? Create a card with some beautiful roses, that's what! Even if it's rainy and cold today, I can make a card with flowers that will feel like spring! So, here you go!

This card features the beautiful Brushed Blooms Bundle and the Brick and Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. Isn't this bundle stunning? I loved it the minute I saw it in the January-June Mini Catalog. And who doesn't love a great brick wall background? The detail of the bricks really comes out when you ink the embossing folder before running it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. I inked the embossing folder with the Sahara Sand Classic Stampin' Pad. The Opal Rounds and some Wink of Stella give the card the perfect amount of shimmer!

Here is a photo of the stamp set! It's a beauty!

A Bowl of Sweet Strawberries!

Hello Stampin' Friends!

How are you all doing? Are you enjoying some warmer weather where you are? We've had some really nice days and I'm loving it! Today is a little cooler, but spring is on the horizon!

With warmer days come all things gardening! I don't know if I'm quite ready for all of the yard work to start, but that is the best thing about the card I have to share with you today! You can have a bowl of sweet strawberries without all of the hard work!

Have a look!

And you guessed it! This card features the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and the coordinating punch. I thought it would be fun to make a card that looked like a bowl of fresh strawberries sitting on a farmhouse kitchen counter. The Tin Tile Embossing Folder adds such a fun farmhouse feel, don't you think? The bowl is made from one of the large circle dies in the Layering Circles Dies Set and then colored with one of the fabulous new Blending Brushes. You can find the supply list below.

I hope you like this card and it helps you look forward to sunny spring days! If you want to see more examples with this stamp set, check out Stampin' Through the Catalog on Instagram. They are featuring projects made with this fun stamp set in their stories! https://www.instagram.com/stampinthroughthecatalog/?hl=en
