May Paper Pumpkin — A Rainbow of Color!

May 25, 2020 MaryLeave a comment

I got my May Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin’ Up last week, and I love it! The box was so bright and pretty, and the kit — wow! Enough to make 12 full-sized A2 cards in three different designs. I’ve already heard other customers say it’s their favorite kit of all time! The kit had the exclusive A Kit In Color photopolymer stamp set and a Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Spot, which is one of the new In Colors coming out in our June Annual Catalog.

Here were the first three cards I made. Note: On the first card, I actually added the extra “You Did It” stamp from the Witty-cisms Stamp Set, because I needed a girl graduation card, and I LOVE it!

Stampin’ Up! also shared some fun alternative projects for this kit! Here they are!

Catch those cute little notecards! I love them! And here is the video showing you how to put this cute kit together!

A Fun Baby Shower Card for a Unique Time

May 24, 2020 MaryLeave a comment

So I received a Baby Shower invitation in the mail recently. But because of the times in which we find ourselves, the shower is a Shower in the MAIL! I will be sending this card out with a gift card to the new mom’s favorite baby store!

I started this card with a Whisper White card base and then a panel of paper from the Best Dressed Designer Series Papers, cut at 5 1/2″ by 3 3/4″. We don’t know what gender the baby is going to be, so I thought I’d keep it a little more neutral, emphasizing the purples, greens and yellows.

I stamped a sentiment from the Witty-cisms stamp set on a scrap of Whisper White with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. The Witty-cisms stamp set is so fun!

Aren’t these sayings delightful? There’s a little bit there for so many occasions!

I colored the buggy with some Stampin’ Blends, and then cut it out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, my go-to die set of the moment. I also cut out a scalloped rectangle panel in Highland Heather from the same die set. Here is the die set:

It coordinates with the So Sentimental stamp set from SU!, and together this is a great bundle, especially at 10% off!

I put it all together, winding a little Old Olive ribbon behind the sentiment. I added a few Pearl embellishments, and I was done!

May Pals Blog Hop: Goodbye to the January Mini or ’20-21 Annual Catalog!

May 13, 2020May 13, 2020 Mary18 Comments

Hello, welcome to the Pals Blog Hop! This month, our theme is “Goodbye to January-June Mini and 2019-2020 Annual Catalogs and Hello to 2020-2021 Annual Catalog,” where the Design Team is showcasing their favorites from the retiring catalogs or products in the new catalog! You’ll find the full line-up below to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Today I’m featuring the retiring “First Frost Bundle” from Stampin’ Up! This bundle has proven itself to be very versatile, from holiday and winter to romantic and vintage all year round. If you don’t have it, I strong recommend you make the investment!

First Frost Bundle - Mary Hanson - Up North Stampin The project features an easy Fancy Fold that I picked up from Lynn Dunn at Stamptastic Designs. The project is built on a panel of Shimmery White cardstock measuring 5 1/2″ by 4 1/4″. The card panel is not made into a full card, but rather supports the ‘mini’ card that sits on top. Onto that white back panel, I adhered a wood grained panel of the same size to add some texture and neutral color. On top of the wood grained panel, I adhered a panel of the laser cut paper from the Botanical Prints Medley in Pretty Peacock. By adhering in the middle of the laser paper, I knew my small card would hide any adhesive. The laser cut paper is a part of the beautiful Botanical Prints Medley!

The small card that gets adhered to the top starts with a 4 1/2″ by 6″ piece of 2019-21 In-Color Designer Series Paper in Rococo Rose, scored at 3″. I like using this paper, because, as you see below, the two-sided pattern creates interest on the inside of the card as well! The white panels on the outside and inside of the small card are 2 3/4″ by 4 1/2″.

First Frost Bundle - Inside - Botanical Prints Medley - Pretty Peacock - Rococo Rose - Mary Hanson - Up North Stampin' On the inside white panel, I stamped a couple of small designs, and adhered it to the inside of the Rococo Rose card. On the front white panel, I created a bouquet using Seaside Spray, Pretty Peacock, and Rococo Rose, stamping the rose flowers on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and cutting out with the coordinating dies. IMG_1941 copy

I popped up the top flower with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and then tucked in some leaves made with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter Paper. A little sparkle makes my day! I stamped a sentiment from the First Frost Stamp Set in Pretty peacock, and then I wrapped a piece of ribbon around the front and adhered to the back of the white panel, tied a bow and glued that onto the front of the ribbon with Glue Dots.

First Frost - Botanical Prints Medley - Mary Hanson - Up North Stampin'

Finally, I adhered the ‘mini’ card to the Designer Series Paper card front with the laser paper on it, using Stampin’ Dimensionals. And that was it! Here was my color combination – I love these tones together!

TAMS Color Builder

The First Frost Bundle is a beauty — and now’s your final chance to get the bundle before it retires! The list of products used in this project is at the bottom of this post.

More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created!

A PEEK AT JUNE’S PAPER PUMPKIN KIT

Paper Pumpkin June

The upcoming June 2020 exclusive Sara-inspired Paper Pumpkin kit is here to help you #sharesunshine. It includes supplies for eight handmade cards and is specially designed to help you create a box full of cheer. Once you’ve made all the cards, use any leftover pieces to decorate the box. Fill it with yellow goodies, add the included adhesive label, address it to someone special, and brighten their life with a little sunshine!

Here are the Coordinating Stampin’ Up! Colors: Basic Black, Bumblebee, Crushed Curry, Poppy Parade, Shaded Spruce, White, and Gold.

Here’s the best part: Each Paper Pumpkin kit contains everything you need to complete the projects inside, and for June, the kit contains supplies for 8 full size cards (4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″). That means a new stamp set, ink, adhesives, paper, envelopes — everything! I CANNOT Wait!
