Hello Spring Paper Pumpkin Alternate Card For A Friend

Hello My Stampin' Friends!

Today, I am sharing a card I created with the

Hello Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit.

My layout is pretty much the same as the Kit intended. However, I cut down one of the card bases and adhered it to an Old Olive Card base. I love that Paper Pumpkin Kits now come with cards that are printed on the front and the back but, sometimes the designs are too pretty to be hidden on the back.

I took the Old Olive Herb Printed card base and cut it down to (2) 4" x 5-1/4" panels. This left me with some 1/4" strips - never throw those away, they make great elements to add to the inside of your cards.


I cut the Pink sentiment layer in half so I would have labels for both of my alternates.  I used the "Hello Friend", from the Charming Duck Pond stamp set, to fit the smaller label.  I used the Petunia Pop ink spot, from the kit, but you can order this color in a full size ink pad in my Store.

I added Wink Of Stella to the Herbs as it added a subtle shimmer to step up the card a notch. I had some (retired) Butterflies in my stash so I sprinkled some of those on as well. You could easily substitute the Brass Butterflies. I will use those on my next alternate to show you how pretty they are.


As you can see, I cut a Very Vanilla Panel for the inside of my card. 
I added the 1/4" strip to the left side and stamped the Chives, from the stamp set in the kit, in the lower right corner.  

I repeated the stamping on the front of the envelope as well.  I love coordinating my envelope with my cards.  It adds such a special touch.

Welcome Fall With Our Team Hop!


Hello!
My name is Mary Bush and I would like to welcome you to my blog!  Today, I am hopping along with my Team as we celebrate Fall - my most favorite season of all!  

I love Fall!  It has always been my "Season Of Renewal".   I love the sound of the fallen leaves crunching under foot, that way the sunlight gets in the fall, the smell and crackling of burning fires, cozy sweaters and fleece jackets, and those wonderful colors! 

So, how excited was I when the Love Of Leaves Bundle came out?  It was made just for me!  LOL.  Thank You Stampin' Up! ;)

My card share is actually a CASE (Copy And Share Everything) from a card in the catalog.  I just altered it to use less of this gorgeous Designer Series Paper (DSP) and made a Note Card set instead of a full-size card.  I just love our Note Cards!  They come packaged with the envelopes and you get 20 Cards and 20 Envelopes for only $7!  And, the way I cut my paper, I can get 24 cards out of only 2 sheets of DSP.  That's pretty cool, right?

I hope you enjoy my card!  If you should like to create it for yourself, I have all of the supplies, with links, posted for you below. Download the Supply List PDF herehttps://bit.ly/3mNr6u1

If you live in the U.S., and do not have a Demonstrator already, I would  be honored to be yours*.  I'd be equally honored if you choose to join my Team - either for the discount or turn your hobby into a fun and rewarding business*.  
*Add the Love Of Leaves Bundle, and other products used to create this card, to your Starter Kit, when you join me as a Demonstrator (for the discount or for some extra income) 
Or
*Order them when you join my Savvy Stampers Host Club.

Now it's time to hop along and see some more projects from the team!  Be sure to leave comments on our blogs - and use the hashtag #stampitcontest to be entered to win our Prize!

Congratulations to our August Winner:

For The Love Of Leaves Note Card for Kylie's Training Program Blog Hop

Hello!
My Name is Mary Bush and I am a Stampin' Up!® Independent Demonstrator from South Carolina, USA.  Thank You so much for stopping by and Welcome to my Blog!

My card features the Love of Leaves Bundle and Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper from the current Holiday/Mini Catalog.  

I have created a note card based on the layout of a card sample shown on page 49 of the catalog.

I love the stitching around the outside of the die-cut leaf, don't you?  It really adds something extra special to your projects.  

By die-cutting a "window" in my Cinnamon Cider panel, I have a leaf to use on another project.  And, I can tuck just a small piece of that amazing patterned paper behind the window.  This way, the print can really be the star of the card but, by using just a small piece, I won't be using up a lot of my gorgeous paper.

If you live in the U.S., and do not have a Demonstrator, I would  be honored to be yours.

I'd be equally honored to welcome you if you choose to join my SandDollar Stampers Family - either for the discount or to turn your hobby into a fun and rewarding business.  During the month of September, you get additional Free Products - including 2 FREE Stamp Sets:

Add the products I've used for today's card to your Starter Kit, when you join me as a Demonstrator (for the discount or for some extra income)

Love Of Leaves Hello For International Blog Highlights

Hello!
Today I am joining in Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Projects Highlights for September 2020.

If you are new to my blog, My name is Mary Bush and I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator from South Carolina, USA.

For our Blog Highlights Tour, I am sharing a beautiful card I created using the Love of Leaves Bundle - now available in my Online Store.  I love sending Thank You cards that my recipient can forward on.  There is nothing like receiving a card in the mail and I love being able to send my gratitude - while allowing them to "pay it forward".

I have paired this bundle with my favorite Designer Series Paper - Plaid Tidings. I want to stock-up on this gorgeous paper!  There is a color pattern that fits every season, and every occasion.  You will want to stock-up on this too!

You will also want to be sure to add the Love of Leaves bundle to your order!  The stitching on these leaves is to die for!  Each die stitches the outline of the image and there is a stitched insert you can add which stitches the inside of the leaf!  How awesome is that?!  On my card, you can see that I cut a leaf from the Copper Foil and stitched the Plaid Paper with the insert that coordinates with that particular leaf.  See that stitched waterfall look?  That die is included in the set!  It really makes my card a "Wow"!

If you like my card, would you please take a moment to vote for me?  I would sure appreciate it!   I'm Card #20 😉

You can vote for me, and see the other projects entered, here: 


Thank You - in advance - for your vote ;)
