Hugs from Shelli - Card & Matching gift tag

Welcome to today's post! I'm so glad you joined me!

So, I'm a Paper Pumpkin (PP) subscriber and the May 2019 Kit - Hugs from Shelli has been my absolute favorite!!! Isn't that stamp set just lovely?!!

Even though we're already in July, I barely had the pleasure of putting together my PP kit. Usually, the supplies that Stampin' UP! provides in the kit contains a little more than you need to create your projects. I took advantage of using my leftover supplies to create this cute matching tag with one of the cards. I used the Stitched Nested Label die and trimmed off one side to have a flat bottom.

 

I didn't veer from the original design of the cards because I love them just the way they were designed. Thankfully, the Paper Pumpkin kits allow you to be as versatile as you'd like.  

I do, however, like to finish off the inside of my cards to match the front. I simply matted a piece of very vanilla cardstock with a piece of pretty peacock cardstock then stamped the feather image with pretty peacock and early espresso as shown below.

If you haven't heard or tried Paper Pumpkin, I highly recommend it to you! Paper Pumpkin by Stampin’ Up! is a crafting subscription kit that delivers creativity to your door every month. Each box includes everything you need to make a stunning project.

They’ll surprise you with projects like cards, gift packaging, home décor, and more for just $22.00 a month (shipping included). What I especially love about these kits is the fact that 1- it's a surprise every month and 2- no need to do any design work because it's done for you. All you get to do is put it together!

To join the Paper Pumpkin fun and to begin your subscription, go to this Paper Pumpkin link. Please note that the August Paper Pumpkin sign up deadline has passed (July 10th) BUT the good news is that an add-on kit (24 cards of 2 different designs) will be available August 1st! More info to come.

That is all I have for you today! Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions by commenting below or e-mailing me. 

Until next time!...
