PPX Crew Blog Hop — May Alternate Paper Pumpkin Celebrating In Color Birthday Card
June 10, 2022
Hello my stamping friends! Welcome to another series of our PPX Crew Monthly Blog Hop! I'm very happy you have stopped by because our 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 of demonstrators (Lori's Dream Team) receive exclusive tutorials to beautiful alternate projects created by our PPX Crew. Since we are having so much fun sharing exclusive alternate projects with our subscribers, we are creating a 2nd alternate project that is being shared with everyone! YAY!

This month's blog hop features the new color palette Celebrating In Colors (May 2022) kit. I'm super excited about this kit because everyone gets to play with the new 2022-2024 In Colors! They are a wonderful selection of colors...bold, bright and oh-so cheery!
I started with a Basic White Thick card base that showcases all FIVE In Colors on one card. There is a mix of cardstock, ink and embellishments on each. The piece that is a diagonal cut with rounded corner is actually the flap from each of the envelopes that are included in the kit. I trimmed off the glue part of the flap, added it to a piece of cardstock and die cut using the Deckled Rectangles Dies. Each die cut shows off a different Embossing Folder before it was adhered to a piece of Vellum cardstock cut at 4-1/8 x 5-3/8. The texture is the Gingham Embossing Folder, then the whole set of layers was adhered to the card front. The "HAPPY" sentiment is one of the images in the kit. This one is inked with Orchid Oasis onto a strip of Basic White cardstock and added to the card front with Dimensionals. Before I did that, I wrapped some Tahitian Tide Baker's Twine on one end and tied into a bow. The 2nd sentiment is heat embossed with White onto a strip of Sweet Sorbet and set into place with Dimensionals. The final touch is the In Color Enamel Dots that coordinate with the Baker's Twine.
The Tahitian Tide Envelope Flap & Sweet Sorbet cardstock was embossed with the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder. The HAPPY sentiment is inked with Parakeet Party; 2nd sentiment heat embossed onto Starry Sky; and Orchid Oasis Baker's Twine and Enamel Dot.
The Orchid Oasis Envelope Flap & Parakeet Party cardstock was embossed with the Stripes & Splatters 3D Embossing Folder. The HAPPY sentiment is inked with Starry Sky; 2nd sentiment heat embossed onto Tahitian Tide; and Sweet Sorbet Baker's Twine and Enamel Dot.
The Starry Sky Envelope Flap & Tahitian Tide cardstock was embossed with the Cascading Ruffles 3D Embossing Folder. The HAPPY sentiment is inked with Sweet Sorbet; 2nd sentiment heat embossed onto Orchid Oasis; and Parakeet Party Baker's Twine and Enamel Dot.
The Sweet Sorbet Envelope Flap & Orchid Oasis cardstock was embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. The HAPPY sentiment is inked with Tahitian; 2nd sentiment heat embossed onto Parakeet Party; and Starry Sky Baker's Twine and Enamel Dot.
Here's a close-up of the texture, colors and dimension. Oh-so pretty! At this time, you are now ready to hop on over to the next PPX Crew designers blog.
