Hello stamping friends!  Welcome to my creative share with the A Paper Pumpkin Thing (APPT) blog hop group!  Our creative crew is a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are collaborating to create alternate projects using the supplies (plus, additional supplies) that come with our monthly Paper Pumpkin kits.  Each month, my Paper Pumpkin subscribers and members of my Stampin' Up! family (Lori's Dream Team) receive exclusive tutorials to beautiful alternate projects.  The creative fun should never stop with just the designs that come in each box! *wink-wink*

ALL THE BEST

This month's blog hop is playing with the All The Best (December 2023) Paper Pumpkin kit.  It contains the supplies to make nine stunning cards, three each of three designs and coordinating envelopes.  It comes with an acetate box where you can store your finished cards! You can gift the kit itself or the finished product in the acetate box; either way, it's the perfect last minute gift for any occasion.

But, you know I like to create 'outside the box', so that's what I navigated towards to come up with a super cute treat box that'll be perfect for gifting for any occasion.  Once the supplies are used up to create those cards, I brought in some additional supplies and tools from my own stash to create my fun project.

To start, I chose to go with a Balmy Blue base that measures 4-3/8 x 5-5/8 and scored at 2-7/8 and 3-1/2 along the 5-5/8" stretch.  The floral card base was cut down the center at 4-1/4, then cut down one of the halves to measure 4-1/4 x 2-3/4.  Score at 5/8".  In order to get a nice even Balmy Blue matte to the floral piece, I had to trim along the 'green grass' edge about 1/16"...just a sliver.  This will ensure that the scored sections line up evenly without any gaps when you glue them together.

The Acetate box was cut in half at 4".  You'll probably need a couple passes with the trimmer to cut through the double layers of acetate.  Assemble one of the halves to form a box, but without a lid.  The fun thing is that cutting the Acetate box in half allows you to make two treat boxes to match with the 2 halves of the floral card base.  Pure genius, right?!!

Insert the Balmy Blue base into the Acetate box.  NOTE:  I added a tiny piece of Tear & Tape to each corner of the Balmy Blue cardstock piece so that it stayed in place without slipping out.  Wrap some of the Balmy Blue & White Variegated Ribbon around the box to hold the flap down.  The sentiment was inked with Pebbled Path and stamped onto a Stylish Shape Stitched Circle cut from Basic White, then Clear Embossed it.  I popped it up onto a Gold Foil Scalloped Layer Circle die with a Crushed Curry Stylish Shape Banner Die cut accent.  The kit included a package of beautiful Balmy Blue rhinestones that I sprinkled across the front flap.  Fill with candies, dog/cat treats, trinkets, etc

At this time, you are now ready to hop on over to the next A Paper Pumpkin Thing designers blog.  You won't want to miss traveling on as I know they will have something fun, beautiful and exciting to share with you.  If you prefer to work your way backwards, you can click your way through the blog list found below.  Either way, be sure to work your way through all of the blogs so you don’t miss any of the wonderful inspiration!

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS

This month's blog hop is playing with the Home For The Holidays (October 2023) Paper Pumpkin kit.  It contains the supplies to make eight Holiday greeting cards that are gorgeous to spread love, warmth & cheer.  The cards come with coordinating envelopes, too!  Once the supplies are used up to create those projects, I like to focus on creating a fun alternative card using the kits stamp set, plus, additional supplies and tools from my own stash.

As soon as I saw the envelopes in this kit, I knew that I wanted to use the decorated flap to create a card that would be used as a pocket note card or tucked with a gift card.  The card base is Balmy Blue and measures 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 and scored at 1-3/4 and 5-1/2 along the 8-1/2 stretch.

The 1-1/4 section is the part that will hold the note/gift card, but before I adhered the sides with Multipurpose Liquid Glue, I added a small strip of Real Red cardstock to trim the edge.  This also makes it more visible that it's a pocket.  Then, I took a 1-1/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Balmy Blue and embossed it with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of the pocket section.  For the notecard, ink the sentiment with Real Red and stamp onto a Basic White cardstock piece that measures 4-1/4 x 2-3/4.

I cut the flap of the envelope off and trimmed the top section with the Real Red Scalloped Contours Die cut.  It was adhered to the front flap of the cardbase making sure to get the piece centered and the curved part as close the Balmy Blue flap edge as possible.  Then trim off the Balmy Blue cardstock excess to form the shape of the original envelope flap.  Heat emboss the sentiment with White embossing powder onto Real Red and add to card flap with Dimensionals.

From the stamp set with the kit, ink up the house and large evergreen tree with Memento Black and stamp onto Basic White cardstock.  Use Stampin' Blends to color.  Hand cut (aka Fussy cut) the images and set into place with Dimensionals making sure to only add the dimensionals to the bottom half of each image.  These images will serve as a holder for the flap to tuck behind.  For the bling, I added the included Glitter Stickles to the rooftop of the house; and a steady stream along the envelope flap that borders the Scallop edged.  NOTE:  after adding the Glitter Stickles, set aside for a good amount of time as it takes a while to dry, depending on how heavy the stream was applied.

WITH LOVE & GRATITUDE

This month's blog hop is working with the With Love & Gratitude (September 2023) Paper Pumpkin kit.  It contains the supplies to make eight mini cards and eight little gift bags.  The cards come with adorable little coordinating envelopes, too!  Once the supplies are used up to create those projects, I like to focus on creating a fun alternative card using the kits stamp set, plus, additional supplies and tools from my own stash.

The color combination is magnificent this month!  I incorporated every single color into my card—Copper Clay, Crumb Cake, Lost Lagoon, Mossy Meadow, Pebbled Path, and anything Gold.  I started with a Crumb Cake card base (5-1/2 x 8-1/2)—perfect color to show off the rest of the colors featured in the kit.

I took another piece of Crumb Cake cardstock measuring 5-1/8 x 3-7/8 and embossed it with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder.  This one is a new one found in the September-December 2023 Mini catalog.  So pretty!  I matted that layer with Pebbled Path cardstock that measures 1/8" larger than the embossed layer (5-1/4 x 4).  That was added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Here's where the Gold comes in.  I heat embossed the large floral image with Gold embossing powder onto Lost Lagoon, Copper Clay and Mossy Meadow.  Each one was die cut with the Tailor Made Tags Die and accented with some Gold 3/8" Satin Edged Ribbon tied at the top of the die.  I planted each one onto the card using Stampin' Dimensionals in a kitty-wompass arrangement.  The sentiment was inked with Pebbled Path onto Very Vanilla cardstock and added to the card with dimensionals.  So quick, easy, and elegant!
