March 2019 Paper Pumpkin Alternate - Congrats Card



Hello Hivers, 


Here is another card I made using the March Paper Pumpkin Kit.  This card was CASE'd from Angela McKay.  I seen her card on Facebook.  I, of course, changed up a few things to make the card my own.  I really loved her idea.  I needed a congratulations card for a friend and I thought this would be perfect.  The inside simply says Congrats.

Here is a close up of all the layering.  


As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

March 2019 Paper Pumpkin Alternate - Spring Box



Hello Hivers, 

This is my first alternate project using the March 2019 Paper Pumpkin Kit.  I made one of the cards into a box.  As you can see from the photos, the box holds one Hostess cupcake.  When I seen this card it immediately made me think of Easter.  I used the Fable Friends stamp set to decorate my box.  Here is how I created this box:





Here is another look at the box.  



Here is an alternate way of making the box.  All the measurements are the same you just don't need the partial score lines on the sides and don't cut the sides off.

Sweetest Thing Birthday Cake Box





Hello Hivers, 

I made this super cute box to hold a super cute gift.  I got the instructions over on Erica Cerwin's blog.  Here is the link to her video tutorial.

I used the How Sweet It Is Suite of products to create my project. This Designer Series Paper is so much fun. Scroll down to see what is inside the box.




Here are a couple more pictures of this cute little box. The last photo shows the box opened up with a birthday cupcake inside.

Until next time....Buzzz you later.

March 2019 SBTD Blog Hop - Step It Up



Hello Hivers, 

Welcome to another Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop.  This month we are focusing on card designs.  What we have to do is design a simple card and then design a more stepped up version of that same card.  

Here is the simple version of my cards.  I couldn't decide on what color to use so I made two cards.  I made the first in Smokey Slate and the other is Balmy Blue.  I used a little Pineapple Punch for the Honeybee.  The sentiment on all the cards came from the Host stamp set, Very Vintage.



SMOKEY SLATE SIMPLE CARD




BALMY BLUE SIMPLE CARD


For the Stepped Up version I added some framelits and bling into the mix.  For the Smokey Slate card I used the Rectangle Stitched Framelits and the other card uses the Stitched Shapes Framelits.
I also used the Be Mine Stitched Framlits on the Balmy Blue card. 
Another difference in the cards are the centers.  On the Smokey Slate card the center is recessed and on the Balmy Blue card the center is raised.


Take a look.




SMOKEY SLATE STEPPED UP CARD



BALMY BLUE STEPPED UP CARD



Here's a close up of each card.

Painted Seasons & Butterfly Gala Card



Hello Hivers, 

I have been trying to make simple cards lately.  I seem to always want to add more layers and embalmments.  This card is simple but it is very pretty.  I love the little butterflies.  I punched those out using the Butterfly Duet Punch and the Sparkle Glimmer Paper.  I added a little color for the bodies using my Aqua Painter.  

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.
