Key to My Heart - Unboxing the January 2023 Paper Pumpkin Kit

 Hi friends!

Welcome to my unboxing of the January 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit, Key to My Heart. This month’s kit represents the tradition of locking a padlock on a bridge to symbolize unbreakable love. It comes with everything you need to make 9 darling love-themed cards—3 each of 3 designs. So, no matter who your dance partner or dinner date is, you can make something heartfelt for them this season.

What is a Paper Pumpkin kit? Paper Pumpkin is Stampin’ Up’s exclusive monthly craft subscription. It provides stampers with a creative adventure delivered straight to their door, with a focus on exploring and discovering new ways to enjoy papercrafting.

Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed by your craft supplies. Or maybe your feeling a lack of inspiration, proper supplies or crafty know-how. Feeling discouraged you from even starting a project? Paper Pumpkin kits are the solution! Each kit includes pre-cut pieces and are all-inclusive with stamps, ink, embellishments along with step-by-step color instructions. They are the easy button for card making and unlocking your creative potential!

Everything you need for your project is included in your monthly art box. All you have to do is open it up and get started. You’ll be able to make cards, treat bags, gift boxes and so much more with your monthly art box subscription.

Next week, I'll be sharing alternative cards I've made with this kit by going "off-road."

Before then, enjoy this unboxing video where I open my kit and make 3 cards following the kit instructions. https://youtu.be/BCk49gd2w6g

Paper Crafting Blog Hop - Sending Support with Dainty Flowers DSP

Hi Friends!

Welcome to our monthly Paper Crafting Blog Hop! The hop this month features items available during Sale-a-bration (SAB). SAB is the best time of year! Place a $50 order and you earn a free item from the SAB flyer. Everyone knows free items stamp and look better 😊

This month, each hop participant, talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from around the world, has created an inspiring project featuring a SAB item. You may have arrived from Traci Gardner's blog. Didn't you love her project!

The beautiful floral images in the Dainty Flowers designer series paper (DSP) and sentiments in the Sending Support stamp set inspired my card. The images and sentiments work very well together.

Dainty Flowers DSP #160834 (FREE with a $50 order)

Sending Support #160822 (FREE with a $50 order)

Together they make a perfect card to let someone know you care.

I started with a piece of the Dainty Flowers DSP that had a water color pattern, then added a Scalloped Contours die cut with a Dainty Flowers DSP floral pattern for a bit of interest - and the paper is so pretty I couldn't decide which pattern to use so I used several!

Then it was super easy to add a stamped greeting from the Sending Support stamp set on the front and the inside.

Thank you for hopping around the world with us. Keep hopping to see even more inspiring cards featuring SAB items! Click on the Next Blog to go Shirley Merker's blog, the start of the hop.
