PAPER PUMPKIN POSSIBILITIES KIT REUNION-BEYOND THE HORIZON

 

We know that many subscribers are waiting on their kits. While we are waiting we are doing a Kit Reunion this month so you will see ideas from various past Paper Pumpkin kits. We are getting busy with the Paper Pumpkin stamp sets and kit leftovers that we have on our shelves. Hopefully this will inspire you to tackle some of your older kits too. You might also see some Beyond the Horizon projects, it is sure to be a variety of projects to delight you!

Well, I was one of the lucky ones who received the kit on time!!! Woot woot!!  So my card is actually an alternative from the brandy new March Beyond the Horizon kit!!!! Here it is:


And here are the originals from the kit:

This month's kit has a beautiful new and EXTRA stamp set!!! There are some very pretty flowers included! I so wanted to play with that stamp set, so I've used it here in my card! I do try hard to use only items from the kit! The only non-kit item I used are the Layering Circles Dies and of course some of the ink colors! That really cool ribbon is included! And so is that beautiful leaf die cut! It's a great kit!!!!

Now hop over to June's blog to see which kit she is using! Did hers come in or is she enjoying one of our older kits? Just click on her name here or the icon below to find out! Enjoy the hop!

Happy Stampin'!

NEW AT SU-HELLO LADYBUG


Welcome to this month's New at Stampin' Up! Blog Hop! We are a group of demonstrators from around the world! This month we are CASEing the             Annual Catalog using products from the January to June Mini Catalog! What fun!!!!!

Here is my card:


And here is the photo from the Annual Catalog-page 43!


It's a simple CASE (Copy and Share Everything)! I love these little ladybugs-my granddaughter is my little ladybug, so they hold special meaning for me!
The Hello Ladybug stamp set bundled with the Ladybug Punch really makes this fun & easy!
I didn't have any DSP that I thought would be just right so I created my own using the leaf from the stamp set! Add some Black Matte Dots & it's a fun little card! Simple & sweet-like the strawberries!

I love this layout! Perfect for these little punches!!!

Next up on our hop is Ginger! Click her name here or the icon below & visit her blog! Then check our all the other CASEs! This was a lot of fun!

Happy Stampin'!

ICS BLOG HOP-NEW HORIZONS SUITE

 


This month on our Inspire, Create, Share Blog Hop we are exploring our favorite bundles! I have quite a few, but my current "most" favorite is the                        On the Horizon Bundle.                                                                                This is actually part of the New Horizons Suite which has some DSP to die for and some other cool elements! It can be found in the                                            2022 January-June Mini Catalog!

Here's my card:


One of the elements I love the most in this bundle is the fence die.                      The New Horizons 6x6 DSP is so pretty! It looks like landscapes! Simply add the fence posts, & it's a beautiful scene!  Oh and those Pebbles Enamel Shapes are one of my favorite embellishments ever! So fun! Sentiment is cut out with the   Tasteful Labels Dies

Here's another one with a different piece of DSP. Same basic layout but a very different feel. Just has a bit of grass from a die cut is all I really added. And the fence is embossed. 

These cards literally took no time to put together yet they look like so much!!!! That's the beauty of the suite! You NEED this one!

Happy Stampin'!!!

PPP BLOG HOP-SAFARI CELEBRATION!



 

Welcome to this month's Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! We are sharing some fun ideas from our February kit called Safari Celebration! This is a fun kit! Check out our alternatives!!!

Here's my card:

As usual, I try really hard to keep the alternatives to the materials within the kit. I think it's important to feature what fun can be done with only the kit materials! While it is fun to pull in all our other materials, I like to think of the kit as a      "grab-&-go" experience! That way if you go on vacation. or the doctor's office, or waiting in the pick-up line, you can use all the materials that are self-contained! Right in your little Paper Pumpkin box!

I kept the leaves the focus of the card. It totally changes the tone of the kit! Although I do miss the fun animals!

Here are what the original designs in the kit look like:

So cute right? I have so many more ideas running in my head!

And don't forget, through the end of February a purchase of $50 or more will get you an amazing Sale-a-bration item too!!!

Here's my card:

Now this girl here is from Cape Cod, so anything ocean or nautical really gets my attention! And this Oceanfront stamp set is the vision in my mind 24/7!

Now I've been working hard on my simple stamping. I'm a very clean & simple stamper anyway-clean lines r us! But simple stamping is a bit difficult for me. I feel like I'm not putting in the effort! lol Well this stamp set is simple stamping at its best!!!! I really added so little because I simply let the stamps & ink take the lead here!!!

Gotta decorate the inside:

Other items used in this card are the stamp sets Special Moments &                  On the Horizon, and the Pebbles Enamel Shapes.  That's it! Simple Stamping!!!!!

Aren't these otters from the Awesome Otters stamp set adorable? And yes, they're FREE with your $50 purchase! They make an adorable birthday card! 

And here they look like they're swimming in some fun waters which is actually the Simply Marvelous DSP-another SAB item!! Yup, this gorgeous DSP is also FREE with your $50 purchase! It has this gorgeous crazy swirl on one side and a more subtle print on the other.  The sentiment is actually stamped on the reverse side of the DSP!

The little guy was simply stamped & colored with Stampin' Blends! It actually looks kind of icy-like he may be popping up through the frozen water!!! Well based on the weather we've had here in New England it could be! lol

Of course I had to use another image on the inside! They're so cute!!!
