Stampin' Up February 2016 Monthly Paper Pumpkin Kit - Hello Sunshine - Alternate Card I

Our weather sure has turned nice out and I hope it is here to stay now.  It was 65 yesterday and just gorgeous out.  It was so nice to see the sun.  All the birds are just a chirping this morning!  Put's a happy smile on my face!!!

Today I'll be sharing an alternate card that I designed from Stampin' Up's Paper Pumpkin kit called Hello Sunshine.

Here we go:

I have not used my Stampin' Up Grateful Bunch Stamp Set as much as I'd like too so I incorporated it in with my SU Hello Sunshine Paper Pumpkin kit.

My card base is SU Blackberry Bliss Cardstock.

I stamped the leaf stem from SU's Grateful Bunch Stamp Set on my card front panel of SU Whisper White Cardstock in SU Old Olive Ink.

I used the second smallest flower from SU's Hello Sunshine Stamp Set and stamped it randomly along the leaf stem in SU's Blusing Bride Ink.

I adhered a leftover piece of SU's Blackberry Bliss Cardstock that measures 1" x 5-1/4" to the left side of my card front panel as shown in the picture above.

I stamped the largest flower and the butterfly from SU's Grateful Bunch Stamp Set on SU's Whisper White Cardstock in SU's Blushing Bride Ink and fussy cut them out.  I added SU's Crystal Effects to the center of the flower to give it a raised look and some shine.

I stamped 4 of the fourth largest flowers from SU's Hello Sunshine Stamp Set on Whisper White Cardstock in Blushing Bride Ink and fussy cut them out.  I added SU's Crystal Effects to each flower to give them a nice shine.

I stamped my sentiment from SU's Hello Sunshine Stamp Set on Whisper White Cardstock in Blackberry Bliss Ink.  Using SU's Project Life Cards & Labels Framelits Dies, I die-cut my sentiment using the smallest label die and sponged the edges with Blackberry Bliss Ink.  I adhered my sentiment to the bottom right corner of my card front panel using SU's Stampin' Dimensionals as shown in the picture above.  I adhered one of the sequins from the Hello Sunshine Paper Pumpkin kit and one of the smallest of SU's Basic Jewel Pearls just above the sentiment using SU's Fine Tip Glue Bottle.

I adhered the large flower to the left upper corner of my sentiment with SU's Stampin' Dimensionals and added 5 of the smallest of SU's Basic Jewel Pearls to the center.

I adhered the 4 flowers along the Blackberry Bliss piece of cardstock using Mono Multi-Purpose Glue.  I adhered more sequins from the SU Hello Sunshine Paper Pumpkin kit to the centers of the flowers and added some of the smallest of SU's Basic Jewel Pearls to the centers of the sequins.

I adhered the butterfly just above the sentiment to the right and added 4 of the smallest of SU's Basic Jewel Pearls.

I also added some of the smallest of SU's Basic Jewel Pearls to the centers of the stamped flowers in the leaf stem.

It's neat how the sequins look pink today.  They've picked up the pink in the Blushing Bride Ink.  On yesterday's cards, the sequins looked pink, green and yellow.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Come back tomorrow for another Hello Sunshine Paper Pumpkin alternate card.




I recently discovered that people are using my cards and/or projects, duplicating them and entering them into challenges.  My cards and projects are my own creations and are not to be used in challenges or sold at craft shows; etc., for profit.  I don't mind if you duplicate my creativity to pass on to family members or friends as gifts or Occasions cards; but,  Please be considerate of others creativity!  Thank you!
