Paper Pumpkin Possibilities April Blog Hop All The Little Things

It's time to hop along with the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities April Blog Hop as we showcase alternative projects using the All The Little Things Kit. Our wonderful Design Team members will be sharing their projects and ideas to help spark your creativity. 

This month's kit is so pretty and I just love the foil accents on the die cuts. For my alternative card design, I decided to mix and match some of the items from the kit with products from current catalogs. I wanted to keep the design simple but step it up a bit with some embossing and a little intricate die cutting for the background. I chose the single floral die cut as my focal image and used one of the sentiments from the exclusive stamp set included in the kit along with the retiring Split Card Textures Dies and the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder to create the background.

Floral Die Cut

Stampin' Dimensionals

Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels 

One of my favorite ways to create alternative card designs with Paper Pumpkin kits, is to take one element of the kit and create a design around it. When I saw the single floral die cut with the foil accents, I knew that was the element I wanted to use for my focal design. To help make the floral image pop, I chose to use Petal Pink cardstock for the card base and Basic White cardstock for the card front. to add some texture to the design, I die cut the card front with the floral die from the Split Card Textures Dies to add some detail and then embossed the layer with the Painted Texture 3D Embossing for some subtle texture. For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image from the exclusive stamp set in the kit with Gold embossing powder, onto a Basic White sentiment label die cut with the Something Fancy Dies. I layered it onto the Petal Pink label that I die cut with the same die set. To assemble the card, I attached the card front to the card base and added the floral die cut to the bottom right corner. I attached the sentiment label to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals and added some Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels from the kit for a touch of bling.

Flowers & Leaves die cut using the Blossoming Happiness Dies

This beautiful Mother's Day card is a wonderful combination of die cutting and designer series paper. The flowers and leaves have been die cut from one of the sheets of designer series paper that coordinates with the Blossoming Happiness Dies. The detailed background was created using the Split Card Textures Dies and I framed it with the large frame die from the Fabulous Frames Dies, using the Brushed Gold Metallic cardstock to step up the design. For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image from the Celebrating You stamp set with Gold embossing powder to coordinate with the frame. To complete the card design, I added several Brushed Brass Butterflies for a subtle touch of bling. This card is perfect for creating beautiful cards quickly and without the fuss of coloring images. So many of the products I used are retiring, so if you would like to order them, I recommend doing it soon to avoid missing out.
