Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop...On My Mind
July 30, 2019
Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! We all are fans of the monthly Paper Pumpkin kit and have joined together to share ideas on alternate ways to use the July 2019 Paper Pumpkin kit, On My Mind.
This month's kit was a special one. There were supplies to make 9 cards , 3 each of 3 designs with coordinating envelopes. The 3 different designs coordinated with 3 different suites in the Stampin' Up!® Annual catalog. The 3 suites: Woven Threads, Garden Lane and Come Sail Away.
I have the Sailing Home bundle and added a few extra elements for my card. I stamped and cut the anchor in Pear Pizzazz and the seaweed in both Pear Pizzazz and Mossy Meadow. The rest of the elements were included in the kit.
Easel cards are easy and fun to make. I think this is the first time I have added a long message strip. I like that when the card is closed you cannot tell that the strip will be "floating".
Well, it is time to head over to see what the talented Darla Watson has created for you!
This is cool! Need more info on this design!
