Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Lovely Lavender Blog Hop


Hello friends and welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop for our January Lovely Lavender kit.  What a tongue twister!  But we are loving this month's kit and can't wait to show you our ideas for project possibilities with the kit.


January's Lovely Lavender kit includes:
• Makes 8 cards: 4 each of 2 designs with 8 coordinating envelopes
• 4 bonus tags that punch out from the card front
• Precut paper pieces and linen thread
• Coordinating colors: Garden Green, Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon, Highland Heather,
Gorgeous Grape (Classic Stampin’ Spot), Berry Burst
*Coordinates with the Perennial Lavender Suite Collection (item 162613)

I used 1 card base and cut it up to make 2 cards today and I have pieces to make a 3rd card later on.  My card bases are Gorgeous Grape cardstock cut 4-1/4" x 11" and then scored at 5-1/2". 


I cut the card base from the kit into 4 inch high sections to remove the scoring line.  Then I cut 2", another 2" and have leftover 1-1/2" pieces as shown below.


My first card base is a z-fold and you just fold the card front back in half on itself, as shown below.  I like to apply my adhesive onto the card front and then my layer can go right into place and there won't be any adhesive exposed.


I stamped the lavender image around the edge of the interior of the card.  I used a Basic White cardstock layer 4-1/8" x 3-1/2" and adhered the layers to it.


This card front has a background of lavender stamped all over in a random pattern.  I flipped the watercolor print on it's side to feature the "love" die cut sentiment.  These prints are gorgeous!

Trip Achiever's Blog Hop January 2024 Filled with Happiness

 


Hello and welcome to our the Trip Achievers' Blog Hop. I am excited to participate with my talented friends. We each earned the Incentive trip for the 2022-23 Stampin' Up! year.


I'm excited to share one card idea with a simple version and a stepped-up version.  I hope you enjoy the variety of creativity of our projects for our January blog hop.



Filled with Happiness stamp set has been on my stamp table all weekend as I have created projects with every stamp image. 


This is the simple version of my card.  I love Starry Sky as a rich celebratory color and  Smoky Slate is a great color for a silvery-look.  The ribbon coordinates well with this color combo.


The only difference below is that used the Geometric Embossing folder on my Starry Sky layer.  The texture really makes the design and words pop!


I hope you will add this stamp set to your shopping list.  It has a great variety of sentiments and designs.   My project supplies are listed at the end of this post. I would love to hear your input about simple and stepped-up cards, please leave me a comment.  

Please join me to visit the other blogs today:



I'm currently working to earn the 2023-2024 trip to DisneyWorld in Orland. The Mexico incentive trip is in April 2024 at the Hotel Xcaret México.  This is going to be another amazing trip.  I'm thankful for my family, team, and the amazing support of all my customers.


The statements above represent my individual accomplishments and do not reflect the level of success typical of Stampin' Up! demonstrators. Fewer than 1% of demonstrators earn the incentive trip, and there is no guarantee of similar results. Please be aware that this achievement required much hard work and effort on my part.


The online store is open 24 hours.
