April Paper Pumpkin Project


I put together one final project with the April Paper Pumpkin kit using the sentiment about family as the main focus.  Behind the layered sentiment, I have used the flap from one of the envelopes and also added a few of the other elements from the kit.


In addition, I added a matted photo of my soon to be graduate...This was a project that came together very quickly using the kit pieces.  I chose to use tear and tape adhesive, glue dots and Stampin' dimensionals for adhesives to they would adhere well to the wood background.


Supplies:
April 2020 Paper Pumpkin
Early Espresso, Mint Macaron card stock
Wood plaque

April Paper Pumpkin Layout Idea


This is the 12" x 12" scrapbook layout I came up with using this month's Paper Pumpkin kit supplies.  The base is a piece of Terracotta Tile card stock and the piece of specialty paper on the side is from the sneak preview Ornate Garden specialty paper collection that will be in the upcoming Idea Book and Catalog.  The rest of the items are part of the kit itself.


The photo mats are card bases that I cut down and the saying is a piece that goes on the front of one of the cards.


You can sign up for the May kit before May 10th by going here.

April Paper Pumpkin and Alternative Cards



My Paper Pumpkin kit came earlier this month that it ever has so that was a nice surprise in my mailbox! Well, it always has a great surprise inside...


The kit was designed to make cards like those in the picture above...


And here are a couple alternative card ideas using Mint Macaron card stock as the base and some baker's twine from the March kit.

Button Birthday


This card has a lot of different layers using Big Shot products - the background has been embossed with the Button Button folder and the Crumb Cake layer was die cut with the Stitched Nested Labels.  
Next are two layers die cut using my all time favorite Stitched Shapes framelits.


My sentiment is stamped with the retired Better Together stamp set using Terracotta Tile ink.  This is admittedly a color I rarely use but I like the was it looks with these combinations.


Supplies:
Better Together
Terracotta Tile ink
Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Terracotta Tile card stock
Stitched Shapes framelits
Stitched Nested Labels
Button Button folder

3rd Grade


One of the projects I have focused on quite a lot this year has been getting ready for my oldest son's graduation.  I went through his scrapbooks and pulled out all the sports pages and all the school pictures and put them in separate albums to display at his party.  In doing so, I found a few that were missing and a few pictures that hadn't made it to the scrapbook yet.  


This layout for his 3rd grade class picture uses two different designer series paper collections - Pressed Petals and Magnolia Lane.  There are also a few leaves trinkets accents along the right side.  

Truthfully, I will probably replace the title if I get a chance because I don't feel like it fits well with the rest of the page!
