This is the second card I made following the Paper Pumpkin Directions:
These are my alternatives:
My CASE
I changed the sentiment and added I gold foil sprig from a retired Memories & More Kit.
Card #2
I used the medallion stamp that came in the Paper Pumpkin and Grapefruit Grove Ink on a Sahara Sand card base that I used the Sutle 3D folder on. The green DSP is from Magnolia DSP
I used Perennial Essence DSP for the orangy layer I stamped the medallion in Grapefruit Grove, Petal Pink & White Craft inks overlapping as I stamped. I added an orange sprig from a previous Paper Pumpkin to the sprigs of greenery that came in this months Paper Pumpkin.
I forgot to update my credit card when I had to get a new one because of fraudulent Goggle charges. This month's Paper Pumpkin was great it coordinates with 3 suites in the catalog.
My favorite is the one that coordinates with Sailing Home.
Paper Pumpkin's Design:
I love the font on the Happy Birthday stamp.
These are my alternatives:
This one is pretty much a CASE of the one in the kit.
Card #2
I'm really happy with this card. I used Seaside Spray for the watercolor wash, stamping & paper. I used Shimmery White cardstock it holds up well to watercoloring. The shells were stamped in Petal Pink & Blushing Bride.
In the supplies, I added 4 options for ordering Paper Pumpkin. You get one kit per month usually a surprise but now and again Stampin' Up! gives us a clue to what it will be.
