February 2020 Paper Pumpkin Alternative

Celebrate with Texture!

What is a Paper Pumpkin Alternative you ask? Well, I will tell you. Every month I receive a Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin' Up! It comes with everything you need to make all the projects in the kit. There is even an instruction sheet. You get all the paper, stamps, ink, embellishments and even the glue dots, or dimensionals to adhere everything. It's such a wonderful surprise to open my kit every month. However, I, and many other people, like to see what we can come up with not using the instructions in the kit. You don't have to do this, but if you like to get creative you can look at Paper Pumpkin Alternatives, or create something different on your own. 

Anyhow, back to my Paper Pumpkin "Lovely Day" February 2020 Alternative Card.


For this card, I knew I wanted to use the purple card (even if I did cut it up lol) add some dimension to lay the gorgeous precut purple Rose on. Isn't that image gorgeous? Imagine the time you can save with pre-printed, and pre-cut images! It makes your card making so easy. 

I filmed a video so you can see step-by-step how I created this card. All the supplies I used are listed down below in this post. 
Wasn't that easy? You can create this too with a few extra supplies. Or you can follow the instructions included with the kit. You can even create something entirely different.
DID YOU KNOW??? Next month - March 2020 - Stampin' Up! is including an EXTRA FREE Stamp set in EVERY kit?? This is such an amazing way to celebrate 7 years of Paper Pumpkin. So, if you have been on the fence about getting your own subscription, NOW is the time. You can subscribe month-to-month, quarterly, or annually. It's totally up to you. 


You can see everything that was in the February "Lovely Day" Kit in the video below

Don't miss out on another kit. Start creating your cards for family and friends. You won't regret it, I promise. 

QUESTION: Have you tried Embossing Paste yet? What's your favorite color or technique?
Happy Stampin'

Reverse Embossing Tutorial

Parisian Beauty Stamps | Classy Elegant Card


I wanted to recreate the "Reverse Embossing" element I did in my last post. I love the effect it provides when done directly on paper and not altered in any way. If you saw my last video, you saw how I tried to keep the rough edges on the element I cut out, but it didn't work out at all!



I'm so in love with this color pallet of Blushing Bride, Silver and Tuxedo Black. It has such a classy and elegant feel to it. I'm so pleased with how it turned out. You can see the entire process in the video below.

Following & Subscribing Information
I've been asked a couple times now if I have a newsletter that you can subscribe to. I do not. You can however subscribe to this blog. You can do this by clicking "Follow" at the very top right-hand sidebar in the first box that shows my followers. This will allow my blog feed to appear in your RSS Feed along with all the other blogger blogs that you follow.
Alternatively, right below that "Follow" box, there is a little box that you can enter your email into and Blogger will notify you via email when I publish a new post.
Hope this helps you out!
Side note, I'm ALMOST at 100 Subscribers on YouTube, once I reach 100 I can personalize my YouTube URL and add "My Inkie Fingers" to it. I'm so excited to do this, so if you have not yet subscribed, perhaps consider helping me reach 100 subscribers.
Thanks so much everyone!
Happy Stampin'!
