My Paper Pumpkin

Have you ever thought about signing up for My Paper Pumpkin?  It is a kit that arrives at your door every month around the 17th in Canada.  Inside you get everything you need to make the project except scissors and a Clear block for mounting your stamps.  The stamp sets are exclusive and they are all photopolymer now.  Each kit comes with a Stampin' Spot of ink perfect to build your ink collection.  Every month it is a different colour.  This card was made with August's kit,   Every kit comes with instructions to make the projects or you can veer off course.  And there are always leftovers to make more things.

Happy Stamping,

Cleaning out the cupboard

Yes, it's that time of the year, removing my retiring stamps from my cupboard.  Now certain ones, will just go down a couple shelves, my favourites and then next year, I weed those that haven't seen ink out.  I do love to keep my sentiment sets, I certainly have some oldies but goodies on that shelf.  Today, I have used three sets that are retiring, Groovy Love, Sassy Saluations and Remembering your birthday.  

Yes, it is a bright card isn't it?  Melon Mambo, Whisper White and Daffodil Delight.  I know you won't be able to guess where that pretty star paper came from..........It's my Party DSP stack.  And I used the 2 3/8" Scallop circle punch and that too is retiring.  Inside

Sentiments from Remembering your Birthday.

 

Happy Stamping,

Casing

Casing, copy and share everything.  This card by Patti Brown caught my eye and I cased it, just changing a little.  I love the bright colours

I added White Candy Dots to the centers, they too are retiring, but we are getting a great replacement.

Check out the video to see more of this set in action.

 

 

Happy Stamping,

Botanical Blooms Framelits

First off, Happy Monday!  Was the weather fabulous where you were this weekend ?  It was gorgeous here, 84 yesterday and the next few days are supposed to be the same!  I love summer and heat so I am very happy.  And with this beautiful weather, flowers are starting to appear.  So yesterday when I got some stamping time, flowers were on my mind. I am so happy that this set is going to be the new Idea book and Catalogue.  It has a matching stamp set too that is carrying over as well.  The framelits are gorgeous, leaves and flowers 

And if  you buy the bundle before May 31, you even get a pack of DSP as part of the bundle.  140819 $64.25

I showed one of these gift card pouches a couple weeks ago and here is another, this time quite a bit brighter.  Melon Mambo and Whisper White

Did you guess where that striped paper is from............of course, It's my Party DSP stack.  The sentiment though I bet you don't recognize.......it's from the FREE extra set that came with April's Paper Pumpkin.  I used Labels and Tags framelits to cut it out layering onto our Silver Foil.  Pull out the top card and lots of room to write and the sentiment is from Remembering Your Birthday, it's retiring (insert sad face here).  And the grey ink that is the new Archival Basic Grey and I will say I am loving the Archival inks.  I will do a stamping comparison for you this week so you can see how great it is.

The lower care is ready for a gift card to be attached.
