August Paper Pumpkin Projects

I had so much fun putting together this months Paper Pumpkin Projects. I purchased the "add on" card pack. This was the first time that Stampin' Up! has offered a coordinating add on kit for the PP.
This kit was the cute gift bags and the add on was the card bases with matching envelopes. There was lots of embellishments and bling to do the bags and the cards.

I recently had a class where we made these cards. The stampers were beginners so I wanted the cards to be quick and easy.

Magnolia Lane Memories and More Card






















I used the Magnolia Lane Memories and More Card Pack to make this beautiful card. Only the sentiment is stamped, making this a quick and easy card! I cut down the Petal Pink/Mossy Meadow base panel, added it to a layer of Petal Pink, (I ran both of these pieces through the Big Shot using the Subtles 3D Embossing Folder), then attached it to my Mossy meadow card base. The Basic Black/Mossy Meadow panel is also one of the M&M cards. I punched out 2 Petal Pink flowers using the Four Petal Flower Punch and 2 Mossy Meadow Sprigs. Stamp the sentiment on Whisper White C/S, and attach using dimensional. Finish off with a Rhinestone. 


Supplies Used:
Cardstock: Mossy Meadow, Petal Pink, Whisper White
Ink: Memento Black
Stamps: Beautiful Friendship 
Other: Big Shot, Subtles 3D embossing folder, Four petal Flower Punch, Sprigs Punch, Rhinestone and Magnolia Lane Memories and More Card Pack.

Happy Stamping and Creating!!
