Kisses & Hugs Paper Pumpkin Kit | Teaser Video

I think this is going to be so great! - get ready for a very fun Paper Pumpkin Kit for Valentines Day! 


But if you are like me and still working on Christmas Cards, 
then here's a fun idea:


Use your favorite Christmas Paper to create Triangle Christmas Trees.
Add your favorite ribbon, a simple greeting and some sparkle at the top and you have a great card.

These trees were cut using the Stitched Triangle Dies
Garden Green is a perfect color for Christmas and it coordinates perfectly with the paper I chose.

Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper

I just love the versatility of this paper! 


I was able to fussy cut the darling polar bear from the Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper to make this card. Very simple and fast!
Colors - Just Jade
I used a Stampin' Blends to turn the white ribbon green to match. 
Behind the Wonderful Snowflakes, I sponged a bit of ink with the Blending Brush. This helps set it off.
I used the BasicBorders Dies to create the stitched oval on the top and bottom of the white cardstock.





Just a few minutes to create a fun card. Love how the coordinating stamp set has greetings for Christmas but also for multiple occasions. 

Only a few more days left of Sale-a-bration.

Products used in this card are linked below.

I would love to be your Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator

Stampin' Up! - Some Tips and Reminders - - -

 Here are some fun tips and reminders for all crafters:



TIP 1

Don't forget that you can stamp on Patterned Paper and make beautiful cards quickly and simply.

This beautiful stamp set called Nature's Harvest from the annual catalog is so lovely; it makes a great focal point for any card and when stamped on a simple patterned paper it is so effective. No need to stamp on a mat of white cardstock!


Tip 2:

You can emboss in any ink color that you want. It is very effective and simple.

First ink your stamp in Versamark and without stamping or cleaning, ink your image in the color of your choice (this one is Night of Navy). Then stamp the image on cardstock or patterned paper.

Use Clear Embossing Powder to heat emboss the image to get a beautiful glossy image.

TIP 3:

Finish the inside of every card!

Masking Tape Technique

 I was reminded of a fun card technique called "Masking Tape Technique"

It can be fun to give your creations a bit of a new look. 

Simply take a strip of masking tape, lay it on your ink pad and press gently to ink up the tape. Lay it across the the cardstock to leave a line of ink on the paper.

This card uses my new FAV stamp set called Biggest Wishes and the fun Playful Alphabet dies!

Here's another fun card using this technique. Get out your masking tape and play around with creating cards today!


I used the Stampin Blends to color a ribbon and pearls to match the Pumpkin Pie ink on the card. I also used the darling Party Puffins Stamp set.

Have a great 4th and have fufn stamping! Want to purchase any of the products? Just click on the picture to be taken to my store!
