Paper Pumpkin Samples!

Join My Paper Pumpkin, select me as your demonstrator and every month receive a craft project.  If you are local to me, you are welcome to assemble your kits at my home on the last Wednesday night of the month.  Here are some samples I made with the Welcome Kit (the first kit you will receive), and April's Seriously Kit.  I made one according to the instructions and then made several alternative samples!  Click here and click on Subscribe.  Each month is $19.95 plus tax.  Shipping is included!

May's project was a "Good Life Brag Book". (Late subscribers will not receive this kit as this was May's project). Sign up by the 10th of the month to receive the current month's kit.  You can cancel or skip any month you choose, but it has to be done by the 10th of the month.  You receive what you need for that month's project except for your adhesive.  You receive a clear block in your first kit and will use that block for your remaining projects. When you sign up now, you won't receive April, May, or June's projects since those are past month's kits.  I do have an extra kit of the last two months if you are really wanting it.  Purchase price is $19.95 plus tax, and then shipping if I need to ship to you. Remember new subscribers receive the Welcome kit for your first month and the samples on top are the ones I made using that kit plus some other supplies in my stash. 

Sunburst card

Trying this technique again and using up my Comfort Cafe designer series paper and Crumb Cake scraps.  My strips are 1" x 6", then cut diagonally with the Stampin'Up! trimmer.  The sentiment is from the Lacey and Lovely stamp set.  My card base is Very Vanilla with a layer of Soft Suede.  I need to make some graduation thank you's so this will be my last Sunburst card for awhile. 

Sunburst Technique

 

I have been wanting to try this technique and finally did.  Please know that this is my first attempt so be patient with me.  I used the retiring Comfort Cafe designer series paper, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede, and Very Vanilla cardstock.  I found a tutorial here.  See the sneak peak of a new punch that will be available to you May 31st?  The sentiment is from the Round Array stamp set and punched with the 7/8" scallop circle punch, and then layered onto a 1" inch circle piece.  I have the new Stampin'Up! catalog here and if you are a customer of mine, either come and get one or let me know and I will make sure you get a copy. 

Wildflower Meadow stamp and Embossing Folder & a TIP!

This card is a Sneak Peak of a new In Color, Coastal Cabana!  Love the name and the color!  Here is my tip on saving cardstock.  I do this all the time so thought I would include a visual for you to know how I do it!

See?  Easy peasy!

And here is a close up of the embossing around the flowers and stems!

Love how Stampin'Up!'s products coordinate! Here the Wildflower Meadow stamp and the Wildflower Meadow embossing folder work great together!

Wildflower Meadow stamp and Embossing Folder

Wildflower Meadow is a background stamp from the upcoming Stampin'Up! catalog.  It has a coordinating embossing folder.  I stamped the image and then cut it with the Ovals Collection framelits for the two layers.  Then I ran the stamped oval through the Big Shot lining it up with the embossing folder.  It is hard to see but if you look closely, you can see the embossed edges around the flowers.  The card base is a new in color, Crisp Cantaloupe and the ink and larger oval are Baked Brown Sugar. 

Sneak Peak! Mosaic Madness stamp set!

Finally playing with brand new product from the upcoming Stampin'Up! 2013-14 catalog.  This set is Mosaic Madness and it coordinates with the new Mosaic Punch!  I just love how Stampin'Up! coordinates their stamps, ribbon, inks, punches, framelits, cardstock, dies, and embossing folders!  I used all 5 of the upcoming new In Colors, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding, Baked Brown Sugar, Strawberry Slush, and Coastal Cabana.  Wow, don't you love those luscious sounding names!  They make me hungry.  My card base is Very Vanilla with a layer of Baked Brown Sugar. The sentiment is from the Lacey and Lovely stamp set.  I also used a punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack.

Spider Web embossing folder RETIRING!

I used the Spider Web embossing folder, #120889, for this popular Spiderman card.  Don't miss out on getting this folder which is still available, only while supplies last!  Order it here and while you are there, check out the sales, some as 60% discounts!  I am closing an order this weekend so if you are local and want to save on shipping, shoot me an email or call me at 605-660-2301 to order it!

Graduation Spinner Cards

These Spinner Cards are addictive to make! The hat and the frog spin from side to side! The word window punch makes it so easy!  Then you use 2 pennies with a dimensional in between and then whatever you want to spin, just attach with another dimensional.  A trick to help it spin freely is to double stack 3 of the dimensionals on the back of the Gumball Green/Black layer.  Then just one (not double) dimensionals in each corner. The layout for these cards was inspired by the talented Dawn Olchefske.  I used different stamps and colors but the layout is the same. The top card I used the 1 1/4 and 1 3/8 inch circle punches to layer the graduation hat.  The hat is from the Pure Gumption stamp set.  The second card uses the frog from the Spring Sampler stamp set from the Stampin'Up! Spring Catalog.  The frog is punched with the 1" circle punch and then layered on the 1 1/4" Scallop Circle punch.  The "congratulations" is from the Delightful Dozen stamp set and will be in the next catalog.  The Cloudy Day embossing folder was used to texture the background and this and the Spring Sampler stamp set will no longer be available after this month so GET IT WHILE YOU CAN! 

 

 

Bye Bye Countryside Stamp Set!
