This stamp set pairs perfectly with the Country Club Designer Paper from the New Mini Catalog. 


Using Night of Navy and Gray Granite Cardstock is a great combination for this hat card.  A couple of Silver Designer Elements adds a finishing touch.  And the sentiments come from Thanks For The Laughs.

A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop - Lovely Day!


                                                                               
Hi Everyone!!   Welcome to A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop....a Blog Hop featuring alternative projects from February's awesome Paper Pumpkin - Lovely Day!!

https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/category/102300/paper-pumpkin

The kit contained the materials needed to make 9 full size A2 birthday cards with coordinating preprinted envelopes!  The raised sentiments all have Rose Gold foiling  and they are fantastic!  There are so many beautiful elements in this kit....so many possibilities!!


                             

Stampin’ Up! put together a quick video to show you the Lovely Day Paper Pumpkin Kit, you can see it here.  



And here is my alternative project for this hop!



Taking the Petal Pink / Rococo Rose folded card....I added the Birthday Cake stamped in Memento Black and colored in with Rococo Rose , So Saffron, Seaside Spray, and Petal Pink Stampin Blends.


Layered with a piece of Rococo Rose cardstock...and add some of the Lovely Day sentiments...I choose Birthday Wishes...I can never have enough Birthday cards!! Tie a piece of our Petal Pink Metallic Edged Ribbon from the Mini Catalog...coordinates perfectly!!


And I choose this time to make this card into a pocket Gift Card holder!!  Adding a glue dot on each corner to make it a pocket.


And using the Coordinating Happy Birthday To You FREE Saleabration Set to add some pretty matching Roses to the inside card.  I just LOVE LOVE LOVE how Paper Pumpkin is now coordinating with other current products!  It makes creating a breeze!!


What a great gift!!


And don't forget...add a few sequins and the perfect coordinating envelope!!  Love it!!

Now it is time to see all of the other awesome alternative projects....you are at Renee Kohnke's Water City Stamping!   
Happy Hopping!!

Creative Inking Blog Hop - More Saleabration!!

Welcome to the Creative Inking Blog Hop...this month we are featuring our NEW Saleabration Second Release. These all new products will all be available for FREE on March 3rd thru 
March 31st with a qualifying merchandise order.  
I will be highlighting our New Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper.  This will be a FREE item with a $50 order! (US)  Check out the New Saleabration Catalog HERE!!


The paper features beautiful patterns in silver and rose gold metallics.


And here is my card....

Check out this lovely DSP.  Look at it shine!


This DSP has a white background.....so I took my Highland Heather Ink pad and swiped directly onto the paper and turned it a lovely shade of lavender.  


Coordinates perfectly with Purple Posy Cardstock.   Now for the directions on this easy fun fold.  Just fold your card in half and then cut 2" off the top edge of your card.  Add a 2" piece of the colored foil to the inside of the card.  



Now for the front of the card....the square Purple Posy piece is 3.25 " x 3.25" and the square Flowering Foil is 3" x 3" .  


Using a die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies is perfect for the sentiment.  And those darling little flowers come form Thoughtful Blooms which is another FREE Saleabration item as well!!   The leaves are punched from our Silver Foil Paper with the Leaf Punch.  The Metallic Pearls make a lovely finishing touch.  



So I hope you liked my card....now it is time to see what Barb has created!!

Or hop back and see what to see what Diane has made!!

Happy hopping!!

And as always.....
