Inked Occasions Treat Box ...

Still have one more project to share that I made with the Fabulous Stampin' Up! April Paper Pumpkin Kit.  It's called Inked Occasions and probably one of my fave kits from all the years.  It is so gorgeous!  I share two different cards that I made in THIS POST and THIS POST.  And now I am sharing this fun box! 

All supplies are from ©️ Stampin' Up!

Colors:  Basic White, Berry Burst, Pool Party, Gold

Inks: Coastal Cabana, Berry Burst, VersaMark

Cardstock/Papers: Thick Basic White, April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit Inked Occasions

Stamps: Inked Occasions (stamps from kit)

Tools:  Fancy Borders Dies, Heat Tool, Simply Scored Scoring Tool

Accessories: Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder, Gold & Silver 1/8" Trim Combo Pack

Look how cute she is!  And so easy to make!  You just cut one of the cards from the kit into 2 pieces measuring 3" x 5 1/2".  Then use the Fancy Borders Dies to cut the top end of both of the pieces.  Then ... using the template below ... cut and score a piece of Thick Basic White Cardstock and make your box bottom.  Adhere the card pieces - one to the front & one to the back, decorate, and voila!  Cute little box to put any small gift or treat in! 

It was a fun box to make and definitely fun to give! 💗 

I hope you enjoy this little cutie.  Let me know if you have any questions!  Or need help getting signed up with your own Paper Pumpkin subscription!

Congratulations With Inked Occasions ... April '25 Paper Pumpkin Alternative!

Have another Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin Alternative to share today!  Need a fun congrats card?  Well maybe you should make one of these also! 😍 I paired the kit, the kits add-on coordinating die set, Hugs Abloom, & the Everyday You & Me Bundle (those cute flowers!) to make this card: 

Some of the fun details: 

• I love that label die (from Hugs Abloom Dies!) for a fun background.  I cut some from one of the cards and some from Basic White Cardstock.  Added texture by embossing some with the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder.  
• Die-cut leaves (Hugs Abloom Dies!) in both Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock & Gold Foil to layer those for dimension.  One of the pieces from the kit is behind it also.
• Stamped those flowers in Bubble Bath ink & used the coordinating dies (Everyday You & Me Bundle) to make this focal point pop! 

All supplies are from Stampin' Up! 

And for some close pics of the details ...

It is so much prettier in person than what I could show in the photos.  Haha.  So just trust me on that!  But I love how this card turned out! 

Thank you so much for visiting!  I hope you enjoy this card!  Let me know if you have any questions!  If you are in the United States - I would love to get you set up with your own Paper Pumpkin subscription if you need one!  Or help you with ordering any Stampin' Up! supplies that you need!

Inked Occasions! With Hugs! April Paper Pumpkin Kit Alternative ...

Have you played with your April 2025 Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin Kit yet?!  Do you have a Paper Pumpkin subscription?!  Well I hope so because this kit, Inked Occasions, is FABULOUS!  Oh my heavens!  So much fun & GORGEOUS!  The kit comes with all the supplies needed to make 9 cards ... including a stamp set, ink, & envelopes!  The cards are gorgeous as is ... or let them be a jumping off point to your creativity!  I made a couple alternatives & today I am sharing the first one!  

I used the stamps & elements from the kit ... plus a few other supplies from Stampin' Up!  The Happy Hibiscus Bundle was so much fun to use with this set.  So I used that & the Textured Notes Dies.  I stamped the flowers onto one of the cards that came with the kit & embossed with gold embossing powder.  Then just used to die-cuts to cut them out.  Added some leaves from the Happy Hibiscus Dies, stamping with the butterfly from the stamp set that is included with the kit, and some Brushed Brass Butterflies.  

The greeting was fun to do as well.  I stamped the greeting on a piece from the kit, then added some ink using a Blending Brush.

In real life the gold shimmers & shines & looks just insanely gorgeous! 

I hope you enjoy!  Thank you so much for visiting!  If you need to get your own Paper Pumpkin subscription so you can have perfectly coordinated projects delivered to your house each month - let me know! 💖  Would also love to help you with any of your paper crafting needs!

Arched Wishes & Color Challenge for TGIF Challenge #523!

It is all about COLOR for our TGIF Challenge this week!  Yes ... that's right!  It is a fun color challenge!  Woot!  I played with the Arched Wishes Stamp Set & Everyday Arches Dies for the birthday card I made for this color challenge! 

All supplies are from ©️ Stampin' Up!

Colors:  Petunia Pop, Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight, Basic White, Basic Black

Inks: Petunia Pop, Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight, VersaMark

Cardstock/Papers: Bubble Bath, Petunia Pop, Basic Black, Basic White

Stamps: Arched Wishes

Tools:  Everyday Arches Dies, Blending Brush, Heat Tool, Mini Corrugated Embossing Folder

Accessories: Basics Wow! Embossing Powder, Baker's Twine Essentials Pack, Iridescent Faceted Gems

So fun and peppy, huh?!  I watercolored the balloons for a more muted color.  But here are the official colors for this challenge! 

I love how these colors look together!  Now ... have to admit ... I used the Floral & Gingham Vellum for the background to this card.  I felt like I have to admit that because the blue on that vellum is actually Pool Party.  But ... I felt like it matched with the watercolored Balmy Blue balloon quite nicely.  😃  So just a reminder that these challenges are a jumping off point meant to inspire.  They don't have to be set in stone.  (Or paper in this case.  Hee.)

A few more shots of the details of this card: 

A few notes on the card: 

• The balloons and greeting are stamped in VersaMark ink & then embossed with black embossing powder.  I love embossing before watercoloring & I love embossing in general. 😀
• I purposefully tried to leave a little splatter of the black embossing powder so I could have some black embossed splatter on the balloons. 
• The balloons & greeting are fussy cut out.  
• The vellum patterned paper is just adhered to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue so you don't see it through the vellum.

One more look at the full card! I really love how cheery it all came together.  This would be a fun card to make in lots of different color combos! 💖

Thank you so much for visiting!  Now you can head on over to the TGIF Challenge Blog to see what other on the design team made & to play along with us!  

Please let me know if you have any questions or need help with anything!  Would love to help you with all your papercrafting needs!  Would also love to help you get your hands on any Stampin' Up! supplies you are needing!

The Greatest Fun! With The Artisan Design Team!

Hello!  Yes ... you read that title right!  We have more fun today in store ... you get to hop around with some of us on the 2025 Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team!  Whoooo hoooo!!! 🙌  Today we are showcasing two stamp sets ... the He's The Greatest & She's The Greatest Stamp Sets!  They are ☆ NEW ☆ Online Exclusives just released this month and they are so much fun to use!  

I made a card for both a mom & a day, but you could easily swap out the greeting and make these cards for anyone!  Here are the stamp sets we used: 

She's The Greatest Stamp Set

He's The Greatest Stamp Set

Aren't these so much fun for the men & women in your life?!  Let me share some more pictures of each card so you can see more of the details: 

Here are a few fun details about this card: 

• Use Two Tone cardstock, rip into strips, and layer together to add added texture and detail.  Stamp on one of the colors for added fun! 
• Stamp the floral image repeatedly & then adhere in a circle to make a fun wreath! 
• Watercolor on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper.  Make it ombre to give it some variation.  Stamp (& emboss in this case) the part of your greeting you want highlighted.  

Now on to the next card: 

A few fun details about this card: 

• Watercolor your colors of choice onto Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper.  Let dry.  Stamp & emboss on each color.  Use Everyday Arches to cut out your shapes and add as a fun geometric detail to your card! (See photo below for how I did the watercoloring/stamping.)
• Stamp your greeting onto different colored cardstocks.  Cut out in strips & layer together to make another fun interesting element.  

It was a lot of fun making these cards.  I hope you enjoyed seeing them.  Now you can keep hopping along to check out all the projects from the other Artisan Design Team Members that are sharing today!  You do NOT want to miss what everyone has in store for you!
