Paper Pumpkin Pop Up Blog Hop - Grown with Kindness

Hello friends!  I have exciting news for you - our Paper Pumpkin Blog Hop is transitioning to a consistent, monthly blog hop!  Every 4th Tuesday will be an exciting reveal of alternative designs for the monthly stamping kit. 

Our February kit is Grown with Kindness, featuring succulents:

Here is a blog post from the Paper Pumpkin team sharing ideas.  

Now let's look at my ideas for alternate designs!  I love this kit and really am super happy with it just as it is.  But our group is committed to help with alternates.  And I do love to make more from the kit and get 2 cards from one card design.  

This is my first card.  I stamped onto vellum and dried it with my heat tool.  Then I used the 2" circle punch on the vellum and the 2 1/4" circle punch on Lemon-Lime Twist card stock.  The circles are held together with twine woven into hole punches on each side.  The succulents paper is from the kit - I cut it in half to get two cards from the one card front piece.

This is the second part of the succulents piece that I cut in half.  I layered this onto Lemon-Lime Twist cut out with the Rectangles Stitched framelits (same layers are above too).  I really like the Grown with Kindness stamp set and the options for a variety of combinations.

On this design I cut this card front into many pieces.  I trimmed the 1/2" top and bottom strips to be my top and bottom border layers.  Then I cut the "YOU" word into separate letters and trimmed them to be more compact.  The twine is squiggled around across the top layer and tucked behind each side. Then each letter is attached with dimensionals.   I stamped the sentiment directly onto the lower layer and added an enamel dot.

Here is the Grown with Kindness tutorial on YouTube:
