You can too!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">So for my alternative design I kind of went outside of the actual box! lol I like to try to keep the alternatives to just the materials included so you can get some ideas without having all the "extras". But this card uses some card stock & the <b>Cane Weave 3D</b> embossing folder. That's it though. </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I went through my card collection & realized I didn't have any new baby cards. We know of a couple of little ones coming along soon so this was quite timely! I think this slimline card came out simply adorable!!! I love the color combo from the kit! The sentiment banner is even from the scraps from when I cut the "box" piece of the kit. Super cute!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Hope you like!

I just love these chubby little birds!!!

You can probably tell the <b>Deckled Rectangle Dies</b> cut out the piece behind them-which is the backside of this DSP! It has been embossed with the <b>Painted Texture Embossing Folder</b>, but would've been pretty all on its own!!!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I have so many more ideas for this DSP! Oh, and did I mention that it coordinates with a new stamp set from the <b><i>January to April Mini</i></b>?! Yup, get the stamp set-get the DSP for <b><span style="color: red;">FREE</span></b>!!!!!!

So I decided to have fun with the exclusive stamps included in the kit!</span></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I decided to keep with the colors of the kit! I also broke my own Paper Pumpkin alternative rule-to only use what's in the kit to create alternatives! lol But these stamps-oh my! lol</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The first is simply stamped on Basic White cardstock and colored in with <b>Stampin' Blends</b>! Add a colorful base, some Tahitian Tide <b>Metallic Woven Ribbon</b> & a <b>Brushed Brass Butterfly</b> & it's a fun card! Hard to tell in the picture, but the images are embossed in black-makes easier coloring.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The second uses the original base that is embossed with the <b>Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.</b> The stamps are beautiful Distinctive stamps so they have the most beautiful image! I just threw in a bit of shading with the Blends & it's basically a done deal!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Hope you enjoyed!!! I'm sure that even tho you love this kit, you will find some super inspiration as you peruse the beautiful blogs below! Don't miss any of them! They are all amazing!!!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Happy Stampin'!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><!--start Blog Carousel script-->

It's just something I like to do! It involves adding some random colors to a piece of <b>Basic White</b> cardstock using a <b>Blending Brush</b>. In this case, the colors are <b><span style="color: #04ff00;">Parakeet Party</span></b>, <b><span style="color: #ffe599;">Daffodil Delight</span></b> & <b><span style="color: #ffa400;">Pumpkin Pie</span></b>.

In this case the image is the flower from <b>Sweet Citrus!</b> Emboss with clear embossing powder. Looks nice right? Well to really make it pop I simply spritz the whole piece with my<b> Stampin' Spritzer</b>. It helps blend the colors & really make the image pop!

It's not a bad color per se. I just am never sure what to put with it! So I decided to try pinks-specifically Berry Burst, Flirty Flamingo & Petal Pink. ! And believe it or not, I think it works! </span><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The punch I chose to share is the <b>Petal Park Builder</b> punch. It bundles beautifully with the <b>Petal Park Stamp</b> set! And purchased together you save 10%! I only used the stamp set for the top flower tho. Just the punch!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I also threw in another punch just for giggles! The sentiment uses the <b>Double Oval</b> punch! It's perfect for smaller sentiments! I love to "dimensionalize" it! lol </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Other materials used are the <b>'23-'25 In-Color 6x6 DSP pack, '23-'25 In-Color Dots, </b>and the <b>Seasonal Branches stamp set</b> (sentiment).</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I hope you enjoyed my simple little card! I do believe in many cases less is more! I do like the Wild Wheat as a background for colors! I'll have to try another palette next time!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><b><a href="https://www.scraphappensherewithdarla.com/2023/06/ics-blog-hop-punch-bunch.html"> Darla</a></b> is up next in our hop!

I guess it was wildly popular! lol</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">So here's what I came up with as an alternative! </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrJpma57ixeOzeJ7CJ197CI5T_mBJH2yNVx9BD4FCw8qK4BnblHaPtjXR1FH163XRwkyjAkAT3M0mm6tUfKatoHHG9gvaS5mP6HVSnLlAGSeO3RO2f1S-tDq4AsuBM7f7h5x8mvlICVks5ewZ0XUiQBxIczk0DHSzBy_IRXhIduHfHAPS1wHy6siLk5g/s3663/suletters3F.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2984" data-original-width="3663" height="326" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrJpma57ixeOzeJ7CJ197CI5T_mBJH2yNVx9BD4FCw8qK4BnblHaPtjXR1FH163XRwkyjAkAT3M0mm6tUfKatoHHG9gvaS5mP6HVSnLlAGSeO3RO2f1S-tDq4AsuBM7f7h5x8mvlICVks5ewZ0XUiQBxIczk0DHSzBy_IRXhIduHfHAPS1wHy6siLk5g/w400-h326/suletters3F.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">You can create this card using the <b>Country Bouquet Punch</b>! The cards otherwise are identical, but they each have their own "flair"!!! lol </span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">So if you have the Lucky Clover punch, go for it! If not, then any heart punch should do the trick!!!</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Other materials used in this card are <b>Bricks & Mortar Embossing Folder, Metallic Woven Ribbon, </b>and<b> Metallic Pearls</b>.</span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">I hope this has given you a couple of fun ideas! Now please visit the "lucky" blogs listed below until you get to the end of the rainbow!!! Guaranteed more fun than a pot 'o gold!!!
