Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities July Blog Hop as we showcase alternative projects featuring the Painted Petals Kit. This beautiful floral kit is a dream to create with and our Design Team is excited to share their alternative projects and ideas to help inspire you to think outside the box.
Today I have created two alternative card designs using one of the card bases from the Painted Petals Kit. I wanted to show how you can create two card fronts from one card base to create two beautiful but very different cards. I chose to use the Daisy card base and used the front of the card to create a soft and pretty design by adding it to a Mossy Meadow cardstock card base and stepped up the sentiment for an additional pop of color. For the second design, I chose to use one of the beautiful Melon Mambo floral die cuts and added it to the card front created from the back of the original card base. Once again, I used Mossy Meadow for the card base to help frame the card design. Both of these card designs would work well for a variety of occasions and it helps you to get more value from your kit.

These two cards are simple to create and they are a great way to maximize the supplies in your kit. I cut the Daisy card base from the kit into two card fronts, one from the back and one from the front. The textured background from the back for the card base works beautifully to help make the Melon Mambo floral die cut pop and I paired it with the Melon Mambo strip to help make the sentiment label pop. I used the Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to pop up the floral die cut onto the card front and then added the Melon Mambo strip underneath using the adhesive strip from the kit. I stamped the sentiment with Mossy Meadow Classic ink onto the coordinating sentiment label and added it to the card front using the Mini Stampin' Dimensionals so that it slightly overlaps the Melon Mambo strip. To decorate the card front, I added several of the sequins included in the kit for a touch of bling and a simple Linen Thread bow to the stem of the die cut using a Mini Glue Dot.
For the second card, I used the Daisy design from the front of the card base to create a soft and pretty look. To help make the sentiment pop, I die cut a small circle from Peach Pie cardstock using the Deckled Circles Dies and attached it to the card front just to the right of the stems. To add some texture, I tied a bow around the left side of the Old Olive strip with Linen Thread. I then attached the Old Olive strip over the top using the Mini Stampin' Dimensionals, centering it over the Peach Pie circle. I stamped the sentiment with Mossy Meadow Classic ink onto the coordinating label and adhered it to the center of the Old Olive strip. To complete the card design, I added several Peach Pie Shimmer Gems to coordinate with the centers of the daisies and the deckled circle I used for the sentiment.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my cards help inspire you to explore using the elements in this kit to create your own unique projects by maximizing the supplies in the kit.
