Meaningful Flowers Cards [August Paper Pumpkin Series #4 & 5]
September 9, 2023 by
The Meaningful Flowers Paper Pumpkin kit is like a burst of spring sunshine on a gloomy day. The bright colors, lively designs, and floral elements make creating cards a joyous experience.
When I was working with the kit, I was struck by its potential to become something unique. To give it a real personal touch, I created my own cards. I softened the “amazing” card with some vellum and added texture to the “Lotus Flower” card. Both turned out beautifully and showcased my own creativity for something unique and different.
And it doesn’t have to stop there. The possibilities are endless! You can create even more unique cards with the right supplies and a little bit of imagination. I’ve put together a few tips to help you get started:
• Take the kit components out of the box to create your own unique cards.
• Combine multiple cards into one for a cool effect.
• Enhance the colors and textures with die cuts and papers from your crafting stash.
• Add dimension with embossing or stamping to create a more noticeable card.
The Meaningful Flowers Paper Pumpkin kit is a great way to get creative and craft something meaningful. Whether you use it to create cards, frames, or home décor, you can make something truly special to give to family, friends, or for yourself.

Teacher Appreciation Card [Teacher Gifts Series #4]
August 22, 2023 by
🍎❤️ Teachers are like apples: they come into our lives, bright and shiny, and nourish our minds with wisdom.
✏️ Did you know, just like our teachers, we can transform the ordinary into extraordinary? Allow me to share the magic.
🔹I decided to create this special card for teacher appreciation.
🔹I reached for my Stampin' Up Everyday Thanks Stamp Set and like the unsharpened pencil, thoughts started to flow. From bland to bold, from shy strokes to vibrant vibrates, the pencils began to etch gratitude.
🔹Then came the Apple Harvest Stamp Set. As apples symbolize knowledge, it only seemed right.
🔹Coloring the images with the Stampin' Blends Markers, the flat paper began to fill with life. The result was sparkling! I couldn't help but gaze at how these images popped off the paper, just like our teachers who pop into our lives and leave an indelible mark!
🎥 I shared how I colored these images in my teacher gift video class.
So, who is the teacher you would like to thank? Let's honor those who inspired us to color our world! 🌈
