April 2024 Paper Pumpkin Alternates

April 28, 2024

Delicate Wings

This is the first of the five Paper Pumpkin Alternates. Created with the help of the NEW Spotlight On Nature Dies to be released on May 1, 2024. This set contains 12 circle dies, each one with a different design around the edges. This is one set that you will see a lot of from me in the year to come.  The greeting is from the Paper Pumpkin kit and embossed in Gold. I added a little gold cord and Adhesive Backed Sparkle Gems to finish off.

Be sure to add glue only to the right side of the circles and place them through the opening on the front when the card if folded up. The card base is Lost Lagoon.


Card #2

This card base is the beautiful Moody Mauve one of the 2023-25 In Colors. I have used Blackberry Bliss to show the contrast and shadowing.  The "thanks" was cut from "Thanks & Beyond" Dies that compliment the April - June Paper Pumpkins. These dies are still available to order. I used the butterflies on the inside of the card and created a pop up card.

Scoring and attaching the butterflies just adds a fun pop. On the front I once again used the Spotlight On Nature Dies.


Card #3

The NEW Basic Beige added to our color line adds a whole new dimension to card making. This is between Basic White and Very Vanilla but leans towards a lighter version of Sahara Sand. I am loving this color as it compliments every color in our collection.  Here I used the Woodgrain Embossing folder to add interest to the two panels but when this card is opened is creates a box.

Here the complimenting color is Lost Lagoon and I love the soft look.


Card #4

This card layout has quickly become a favorite of mine. You can change the look by adding and taking away layers. The card in Paper Pumpkin called out to me that I had to do this card. The butterfly with the Champagne behind it and then the embossing was perfect for the front of this card

It is so easy to assemble and just screams elegance


Card #5

Card #5 is simple. I figured by the time everyone got to this one they needed something simple. This is once again using the Basic Beige however, this time I have used Basic Gray to coordinate with it. Just a few strips of Champagne Foil to bring out the butterflies in the Basic Gray card front. Greeting stamped with Basic Gray keeps it simple.

My favorite part of my job is creating. It doesn't always come easy but this month's Paper Pumpkin kit contained beautiful Alcohol Ink papers. The papers were so beautiful and the kit included nine card bases which had the design on the front and back of the card. When cutting them apart you were able to create 18 card fronts. I started designing by cutting them apart and then went from there. Throughout the week I will post 3 cards each day for seven days that were all made with April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Inked Occasions

This is the final card in a series from the Impressions Abloom. If you have not see the others check my blog. This is the first one I created using Timid Tiger but for my Facebook Live I wanted to use the new In Colors.

All this week I will be posting cards created with products remaining from my recent event. This card was inspired by the card below that I created for that event. I had a focus on creating masculine cards and when I was done with the event I had a set of the undone cards remaining. I had received the New Impressions Abloom which is only available if you are a Demonstrator until May 1, 2025. After that date it will be available to anyone. I used the products that were in the packet to create this card. Of course I added a few extra things. I will give you all the instructions on the page including measurements and products used for both projects
