Paper Pumpkin August 2017

Enjoy my alternate ideas for the August Paper Pumpkin!

If you don't have the exact supplies that I used but you want to use the idea, look through your things until you find a stamp set or ink color that will look great, too!  Did you know that Stampin' Up has a list of coordinating colors right in the direction sheet?  I get out those ink colors before I even start working on my kit!

From now until September 10th, NEW Paper Pumpkin subscribers get 50% off their first month.  Use the code HALFOFF0917, and make sure you choose me as your demonstrator!  Click HERE to sign up for Paper Pumpkin!

These quick and easy cards are made with Basic Black ink for the words, Garden Green ink for the sponging around the outside, and Garden Green card stock.  Whenever we get leaf stickers like these, I always make some of this design!


Ink up the words on the "thinking of you" stamp one at a time, and stamp on the tag.  I use some scotch tape to mask off the other words,  If you do that, just make sure you take the tape off before you stamp.  I have stamped the inked-up tape more than once.  Not a pretty sight!


I wanted flowers in a different color, so I flipped them over and sponged on Calypso Coral!  Both cards have Old Olive as the card base.  The card on the left uses a stamp from All Things Thanks.  And the words "so much" were stamped by just inking up those words in Calypso Coral.



I sponged around the outside of the flowers in Night of Navy and Calypso Coral.



The card on the right uses the stamp set Just Add Text.  I'm not sure if I like the flowers off-center, but I needed to arrange them so the flower covered the navy image that was already on the card.

Thanks for stopping by!


Happy Stamping!
