Paper Pumpkin --- July 2018
The July Paper Pumpkin kit was a surprise. We had several hints of what it would be. I love the colors and there was so much in the kit that I was able to make 26 alternative cards and still have paper.
Don't forget, there is a special this month that ends on August 10, 2018. The kit will be half off for the first month. Sign Up at Paper Pumpkin. Use the code BLOOM0818.
Here are a few of the samples I made for July.

Workshop Projects, June 26
I created a card/scrapbook page for my last workshop using the Love You Lots stamp set. I first created the card and placed it on my scrapbook page. The stand alone card came second and was a little bit of a morph of the original card on the page. It was fun deciding what to do.
I hope you enjoy both.

"Love You Lots"
I love the hostess set Love You Lots. I experimented with some different mediums and techniques. I used watercolor on the frog card You're the Best. I used the Fine Tip Glue Pin for the eyes.
I used color pencils on the elephant card, stamping it first with Archival Black Ink.
I used the Playful Background stamp set again. It is hard to see, but the lady bugs have been painted with the Fine Tip Glue Pin.
This is such a fun set. I loved creating these cards

I used color pencils on the elephant card, stamping it first with Archival Black Ink.
The hedge hog card was created by stamping the hedge hogs first then masking the sun. I used watercolor to create the sky and and ground. The hedge hogs were color with colored pencils. I then sponged the sun and painted blue across the sun.
I used one of my favorite new background stamps, Playful Backgrounds. The frog was colored using colored pencils.
I used the Playful Background stamp set again. It is hard to see, but the lady bugs have been painted with the Fine Tip Glue Pin.
