I’m pleased to say I have another empty Paper Pumpkin
box! I cannot tell you how many times I
pulled this kit out, mulled over it then put it away! Nothing was coming to me! Pinterest didn’t even have many ideas for me
to steal! Once I got going, I wondered
what my problem was! Ended up with 18
alternative cards, two of each design from the July 2017 Positively Picturesque Paper
Pumpkin kit.
|
Card 1 of 9 |
Card 1 of 9: Used the blue card bases that came in the Positively Picturesque kit.
Ran the front through the Lovely Floral EF. I covered the die cut circle that was also in
the kit with strips of Washi Tape.
Punched the sentiment with the Everyday Label punch, tied a bow with the
white baker’s twine and added a piece of Pearlized Doily.
|
Card 2 of 9 |
Card 2 of 9: I used a Tranquil Tide card base. I ran the heart panel that came in the kit through
the Softly Falling EF. The Stamparatus
helped to plant my flowers in a straight row!
I adhered a piece of window sheet between the grass and flowers. Stamped ‘thanks’ using Tranquil Tide ink, cut
it out with the Stitched Shapes dies. Used
some Pink Powder ribbon and linen thread to finish off the card.
|
Card 3 of 9 |
Card 3 of 9: I used the Powder Pink card base that came
in the kit. I cut the small
envelopes apart so I could use the green crosses for background paper. I
will use the large envelopes for my cards.
I cut the pre-stamped tulip images that came in the kit with the
Stitched Shapes dies. I added a little
Pink Powder ribbon, part of a doily and punched the hearts with the Owl Builder
punch. The sentiment is stamped directly
on the card with Lemon Lime Twist ink.
|
Card 4 of 9 |
Card 4 of 9: I used Sky Blue for my card base and the circle layer
from the kit. Ran this through the
Sequins EF in hopes that it would look like rocks and pebbles, then I added a
window sheet behind the circle. I traced around the wooden mountains in Basic Gray
and Tranquil Tide and cut them out. I stamped some water ripples from the
High Tide stamp set on a scrap of Sky Blue cs in Sky Blue ink, tore the top
then added it to the base of the mountains.
The trees are cut in Lemon Lime Twist and Tranquil Tide using the Card
Front Builder dies (Holiday 2018). The lime tree is glued down and the
tide trees are on dimensionals. Add a
little deer in Basic Gray from the same dies.
Stamped the sentiment on Lemon Lime Twist cs with Tranquil Tide ink and
punched with the Word Window punch.
Added some sequins from my stash.
|
Card 5 of 9 |
Card 5 of 9: For the center of this card I used the
pre-printed note card with the Lemon Lime Twist watercolor swish on it. I used Lemon Lime Twist for my card base.
I colored the ‘hooray’ wooden word with the black SU! Marker and adhered
to card with Glue Dots. Stamp the small burst image in Memento Tuxedo
Black ink. Made a bow with Basic Black
Baker's Twine. Stamped the greeting with
black in on scrap of white and cut with the Word Window Punch and adhered with
Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. Finished off
with some black sequins.
|
Card 6 of 9 |
Card 6 of 9: Two blue note cards came in this kit so I cut
one in half to make 2 cards. I stamped
the watercolor image from the Love What You Do stamp set in Powder Pink ink
down the center however, I ended up covering the whole thing! I covered the circle in Washi Tape. The congrats and butterflies are cut using
the Sunshine Wishes Thinlit dies. Added
some silver thread, sequins and rhinestones.
|
Card 7 of 9 |
Card 7 of 9: The center blue piece is the other note card that
came in the kit. I cut it in half to
make two cards. I took the white hearts
that popped out of the card faces, pounced my Island Indigo ink pad over
them. Then I pounced with my Versamark
ink pad and embossed with Iridescent Ice embossing powder to make it
sparkle. I gold embossed the word ‘love’
plus a scrap of white. Punched hearts
using the Heart to Heart punch, Itty Bitty Accents punch and the Owl Builder
punch. I finished up by adding wash tape
from the Paper Pumpkin kit, Island Indigo Ribbon and some sequins.
|
Card 8 of 9 |
Card 8 of 9: Now I need to use up the tulip woodcuts. Planted another straight row of flowers using
the stamparatus. Added Wink of Stella to
the tulips and sequins to my bursty flowers.
I had used the grass in an earlier card so I just cut more for this
card. Added a bit of linen thread to the
grass. Used the crop-o-dile to punch out
two 3/16” circles from Berry Burst and covered them with Fine Tip glue. Cut a Pearlized doily in half and used the
Word Window punch to punch out the phrase.
|
Card 9 of 9 |
Card 9 of 9: For this card, I cut another circle panel as I
wanted the circle higher to fit all my stuff on the card, ran it through the
Woodland EF and adhered a window sheet behind it. I found an idea on Pinterest where the lady adhered
the mountains on the outside of the circle window. I cut some green Glitter
Paper from my stash into trees using the Card Front Builder dies (2017
Holiday). The word ‘love’ was colored
using the Tranquil Tide marker. Added a
little Wink of Stella to it
