Paper Pumpkin Alternative-August 2018 kit

Hey Stampers! 
I have an alternative Paper Pumpkin project to share with you today.

I was in desperate need of Sympathy cards so I turned to a Paper Pumpkin kit to help me out! 

I grabbed my August kit, Blissful Blooms kit.

I changed things up a little bit mixing and matching other Stampin' Up! materials that are current and no longer available to create some beautiful sympathy cards. Adding Wink of Stella to the flowers adds just the right touch of sparkle!

Cookie Cutter Christmas card~

Hello Stampers!

Happy day friends! 
Killing time on Pinterest I found an adorable card by Joyce Whitman, I had to CASE it!  (Stampin' Up! motto, Copy And Share Everything!)
This is my take on the card.

I used the Cookie-Cutter Christmas Photopolymer stamp set.  For the 'cookie sheet' I used a piece of Silver Foil Paper.

I added Wink of Stella to the gingerbread cookies stamped in Early Espresso.
Bows stamped in Real Red and I had some scraps of Red Glimmer paper to add a bow to the girl cookie.

You Are One of a Kind

Hello Stampers!

I have a sponged project to share with you today.  I have not played around with mixing colors with a sponge for a long time so I thought I'd give another whirl! 

Using the Sea of Textures stamp set this is what I came up with.

I took a Whisper White regular card stock and cut a 2" circle  then using sponges and refill inks I added Night of Navy and Tranquil Tide.  Then using Vera Mark stamped sea plants and heat embossed them in White.

On the circle that I punched out I stamped it with Tranquil Tide, Night of Navy twice. then placed in in the hole.

Card Stock used: Whisper White, and Crumb Cake. 
Ink: Veramark, Tranquil Tide, Crumb Cake, Night of Navy
Extra materials Used: Classic Label punch, Under The Sea Framelits, Big Shot 2" Circle Punch, White and Black Embossing powder, Heat tool

Cozy and Warm at the North Pole

Hello Stampers!
Happy Monday to you.
Although the Holiday Catalog has been out for a whole month, I just can't seem to get into the swing of making Christmas cards, so this past weekend my children, their friends and myself had a Stampin' Party!  We decided we'd only do Christmas cards.  Here is one of the cards I created.

I had fun with this one because for one, they are snowman!  They are always fun.  I used the Seasonal Chums stamp set and cut apart both front and back of the snowman, but being you can't tell it's the back, I simply drew a face on the back of the snowman so I could have two with cute mittens!

Popped them up on Dimensionals and added a 'North Pole' sign from the photopolymer stamp set, Signs of Santa. 
The Designer Series Paper is Under The Mistletoe. 
Card Stock: Whisper White and Shaded Spruce
Ink: Black Memento Ink
I used Basic Black Stampin' Write markers to add color and dra in the face on one of the snowman.  Other Stampin' Write colors used, Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Blackberry Bliss, Gray Granite,  Merry Merlot, Old Olive, Pink Flamingo and Petal Pink.

Thank you for joining me today!
