Paper Pumpkin Thank You Cards

Hello My Stampin' Friends. Happy Saturday!

Today I would like to share with you some thank you cards I made for my new Paper Pumpkin Subscribers.

I was playing around with the new swirly scribbles thinlits and I saw that the big swirly die kind of looks like a pumpkin. So naturally I had to make a paper pumpkin card.


I added some wink of Stella to give it a little shine. So pretty!


Here is the other thank you card I made.

One of the many perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is being able to purchase this paper pumpkin stamp set. It debuted at convention (another perk for being a SU demonstrator) and I knew I had to have it. Its nice to have a paper pumpkin stamp to make thank you cards!

I just recently received a new member to my paper pumpkin family which I like to call my pumpkin patch. I sent her this Thank You Kit.

How cute is the paper pumpkin button? I was able to get 2 of these buttons.  I have one more button like this left. Would like a thank you kit like this? All you have to do is  join my paper pumpkin patch and subscribe to paper pumpkin. I would love for you to join!

I also have 2 of these Thank You kits as well.


There are 2 ways to subscribe.

The first way is a prepaid subscription.  You can try it for 1 month to see if you like it or there is a 3, 6 and 12 month subscription. With the 6 month subscription you save $1 per month and with the 12 month subscription you save $2 per month!



Or you can pay as you go with a montly subscription.  Either way there are some extra perks for subscribers.

Thank You for stopping by peeps. I hope you are having a fabulous weekend!

Happy Stampin'!

Minnie Thank You Card

Hello My Stampin' Friends!

Today I would like to share with you this thank you card I made for my neighbor/ friend. She LOVES Disney. She just went to the happiest place on earth and she was so sweet to think about me and my little family and brought us back a yummy Minnie caramel apple and some delicious Mickey and Minnie chocolate covered marshmallows!

Naturally I had to make a Disney theme thank you card!


I made this card using my FAVORITE tool the big shot and the new swirly scribbles thinlits dies.
I just used my paper snipes to snip off the little leaves.

I then brushed some wink of Stella over my swirls to give them a little shine.


The bow I made using the bow builder punch. I also used the new Sprinkles punch for the mini white dots for the bow. The stamp set I used was the Thoughtful Banners.

I think she will love it!

Thank you for stopping by my Stampin' Peeps!
Till next time.

Happy Stampin'!

Going Away Card

Hello my Stampin' Friends!
Happy Monday!

Today I would like to share with you this going away card & goodie treat.
(I mean if you have to say goodbye might as well try and make it "sweet")


I finally played with my Swirly Bird stamp set. Winning!  How cute is the little sailboat? Which by the way was super easy to make. This stamp set is a photopolymer set which means the stamps are clear therefore easy to see where you stamp! Plus this set coordinates with the Swirly Scribbles thinlits! So many possibilities you can create with this set!   

Here is a solo picture of the card.


To make the waves I used the Swirly Scribbles thinlits and my most favorite tool the big shot. I "fussy cut" the sailboat with my trusty paper snips. The sentiment I used is from the Greatest Greetings stamp set. There's some good greetings in this set! 

Here is a solo picture of the goodie treat. 


For the tag I punched out a circle with whisper white cardstock and the 2 inch circle punch. Stamped and fussy cut another sailboat and added my waves. Very easy and fun!

Here is one more picture of them together. 


Now it's time for a fun fact. Did you know you can buy the Swirly Bird stamp set and the coordinating Swirly Scribbles Thinlits die in a bundle AND SAVE 10%?


Awesome right? 

Well I hope you enjoyed today's card and goodie treat.

Till next time my Stampin' Peeps!

Grateful For You

Hello my Stampin' Friends!

Today I would like to share with you this card I made for a friend of mine. 



I used the Acorny Thank You stamp set for the sentiment. I stamped it with Bermuda Bay then I used the Calypso Coral stampin write marker to color the little hearts.  The flowers were made with the big shot die cutting machine and the botanical builder framelits. 

I also filled a clear tiny treat box with Jordan Almonds. I added a flower on top to match the card. 



I'm loving the new clear tiny treat boxes! Have you used them yet?

Here they are together.


Hope you enjoyed today's goodies. 

Till next time peeps.

Happy Stampin'!

You Are Remarkable

Hello My Stampin Friends!

Happy Friday!

Today I would like to share with you this lovely card or like my five year old says "the grapes" card.


I made this card using the Remarkable You stamp set. This set is becoming one of my favorites! I also punched out 16 flowers using the petite petals punch. For the center of the flowers I used the tree builder punch to punch out the little flower. I then added some pearls just to give it a little something extra. 

I notice I have been reaching for the pearls and rhinestones lately. They're becoming my "go to" for embellishments. Do you like to use the pearls or rhinestones? What is your "go to" for embellishments? Let me know in the comments. I would love to hear from you. 

Hope you have a great weekend.

Till next time peeps!

Happy Stampin'!

Sending A Smile Your Way

Hello Stampin Peeps!

Today I would like to share with you this card I made using the Love & Affection stamp set.


I really like the crumb cake and night of navy color combo. The flower paper is from the Affectionately Yours designer series paper pack. I LOVE how it coordinates with the love & affection stamp set! Did you notice that the flowers on top of the sentiment matched the flower paper? I just stamped with night of navy ink onto crumb cake cardstock and "fussy cut" them.  

Here is a close up. 




I then just added some rhinestones to the center of each flower and to the bigger flowers on the flower paper to give this card a little "pop".

I hope you enjoyed today's card. Till next time peeps.

Happy Stampin'

4th Of July Goodies

Hello My Stampin' Friends!

Today I would like to share with you some sweet goodies I made for the 4th Of July.

I found some really awesome patriotic candy at the grocery store, Once I saw them I knew they would be perfect for Stampin' Up's! NEW clear tiny treat boxes.  The first box has some yummy Rolo's inside. I used the thoughtful banners stamp set along with the coordinating classic label punch for the sentiment. I also used the smallest star die from the stars framelits set.


For this next box I filled it with some mini Ghirardelli chocolate squares and some Rolo's. I tied a bow around the box with some Dapper Denim ruched ribbon. To make the star tag I used the long solid bar stamp from the thoughtful banners stamp set. I alternated stamping with real red and pacific point. I then cut out the star shape using the second smallest star die from the stars framelits set. After I got my star I then layerd the smallest star on top and ran it through my big shot again. I tied around bow with some cherry cobbler bakers twine.


Here is a look at the top of the box / star tag.



This next goodie I used the new 2x8 cellophane bags. I put some York patties inside. I like how it came out. I just tied a bow and used a glue dot to attach to the top corner.


One last picture of all of them together.


Hope you have a great 4th of July weekend! Till next time peeps!

Happy Stampin'!
