Welcome friends. Awesome news ... I've been asked to participate in the 'A Paper Pumpkin Thing' blog hop that happens monthly. Yay! I am super exited to share my take on Paper Pumpkin kits. What is this hop all about? Wait, what is Paper Pumpkin all about? Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription craft kit full of goodness from Stampin' Up! Every kit includes a stamp set, supplies, ink and projects instructions. The designers participating in this hop take the monthly kit and put their own spin on the projects providing alternate ideas for you and various ways on how to use the kit supplies. Fun, fun!

This month's kit is called Blissful Blooms. When I get my monthly box I usually make one set of the suggested projects exactly as shown. Once I check that off the list then I go to town and play with the remaining supplies. I tried to keep with the basic kit supplies but sometimes I add a few core items from my craft stash. On these cards I swapped up inks, added a few dies & embossing folders but otherwise you could make these using your kit supplies.

Our Blissful Blooms August 2018 Paper Pumpkin kit, with its drenched-in-watercolor cards (the original was handpainted), gorgeous lined envelopes, and silver foil trim-plus tags you can hand stamp yourself-add that extra bit of love and thoughtfulness to a note directly from you.

This blue and purple winter card uses tidbits from the Calm & Bright kit. I used the negative shape from the fir die cut to create a stencil and layered from there. Blend, stencil, stamp. Colors are Highlander Heather, Cloud Cover, & Lost Lagoon. @global_design_project #gdp525 #stampinup #calmandbright
Masking and stamping! On this card I mask with tape, blend ink, then stamp, then stencil, and stamp again to create a layered scene. It’s so satisfying to remove the masking tape… always a fun reveal.

Sending Joy! I created this wintry scene using the Calm and Bright card kit. I love the look of white on white. I pulled in some gold embossing and Crumb Cake to balance out all that white. This CAS kit has tons of cute and tiny elements (yippee for tiny stamps) that are perfect for creating an adorable little holiday scene. 166461 Card created for @global_design_project BRRR theme. #gdp523 #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #cardmakingreels #madewithmine
