MAY PAPER PUMPKIN

I apologize for being a little late with my May Paper Pumpkin alternate projects and giveaway. The kit arrived while I was on vacation, and when I got back the new Stampin Up catalog released and poor Paper Pumpkin had to take a “back seat” to all of the new goodies. It was so much fun to be able to finally sit down and play with this kit!

I didn’t just make 1 alternate project, I continued on with the extra pieces and created 8 Inspirational Note Cards. Details on the set and for the giveaway are below.

May refill kits are available in my online store.

 

ALTERNATE CARDS – Part 1

Join me in the fun “how to” video below, and learn how to make this card using the embellishments in the May PP kit. It’s quick, and easy….and fantastic! The colors are Elegant Eggplant, Pool Party and Pumpkin Pie. They work so well together. Scroll to the bottom for the full list of supplies for this card.

Part 2 of my alternate cards is an Inspirational Card Gift Set. Featuring the die cut card bases, Remarkable You stamp set, Serene Scenery designer paper and an Early Espresso ink pad. These took less than 5 minutes to make the entire set!

Simply cut the DSP to 5-1/2 x 4-1/4″ and attach to the card base. Stamp the greeting and you’re done!

  36. Pat (Whisper) Bling it On says

    Glad you’re back, and looking so lovely. I was thinking while you were showing, could that pumpkin pie corrugated paper be saved for Halloween projects or cards? Or is it the wrong color of orange? I do love your alternative cards. I’m so happy to see you and Linda again on Periscope. Now my world is a happier place to live in. TY and please tell Linda TY as well. Would you give me the Periscope time again? I caught you both on Linda’s, but missed yours. That is a big problem for me; because how can I help you ladies reach a million hearts if I miss the scopes? Just saying!!! Anyway, I do hope you and your family are well as well as Linda’s family. Be safe, be strong,, and enjoy your family. ??????
    ??, Pat
