Paper Pumpkin Possibilities July Blog Hop On My Mind

Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities July Blog Hop and this month we are featuring the On My Mind Kit. This wonderful kit features three of the amazing suites in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog to help you create 9 beautiful card designs. As you hop around on our blog hop today, you will see creative alternative projects that our design team have to share to help inspire you to think outside the box. I hope you enjoy this month's blog hop.

To create my alternative card design this month, I chose to use mainly supplies from the July kit with just a couple of the new 2019-2021 In Color products to complete it. I chose to use the Sahara Sand print card base for my card and used the frame from around one of the Woven Threads patterned pieces in the kit, to create the focal layer.

I cut a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock to fit behind the frame and stamped a tone on tone design using the medallion image from the stamp set in the kit, using the Pretty Peacock Classic ink spot that is also included in the kit. I adhered the frame to the cardstock layer with Snail Adhesive. Using a piece of Terracotta Tile 1/2" Scalloped Linen Ribbon (item #149705), I attached it along the bottom of the panel using Snail Adhesive to complete the frame.

To create the sentiment, I stamped the Happy Birthday image onto the label from the kit, with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with Gold embossing powder. Using two of the labels from the kit, one Seaside Spray and the other Terracotta Tile, I cut them both in half and used the Banner Triple Punch (item #138292) to flag the ends of the Terracotta Tile Label. I then attached the labels on either side of the sentiment using the Mini Glue dots included in the kit.

To complete the card design, I tied two bows using the Linen Thread included in the kit and attached them on either side of the sentiment label with Mini Glue Dots. Using the Mini Dimensionals from the kit, I attached the sentiment label to the center of the panel and then attached the panel to the card base with Mini Dimensionals. I loved that I was able to make use of the supplies from the kit to create this card design and come up with something fun that would work well as either a masculine or feminine card.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today and I hope that my card design will help inspire you to explore new ways to use the supplies in this month's kit. If you live in the U.S. and do not already have a demonstrator, please contact me and I would be happy to help you.
