Snowman Magic is in the air!

Hello there my crafty friends! Today we're going to create a flurry of fun with the Snowman Magic Stamp & Die Bundle.  We're also going to join the Crafty Collaborations Crew Blog Hop to get lots of fabulous inspiration using this bundle!

This fun fancy fold card is one of the 8 designs I used for my annual Holiday Stamp-A-Stack. The base of card is a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Night of Navy Cardstock, followed by a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper.  The front folded piece is also Night of Navy, cut at 3 1/2" x 8 1/2" (scored at 4 1/4").  Then, there's a Basic White layer on the front and the inside.  Both of those pieces are cut at 3 1/4" x 4".  

As you can see, I stamped a snowman scene on the front before adding a little 1/4" strip of Navy Cardstock and the sentiment piece (cut down to size).  The inside has plenty of room to write a little note of Holiday cheer!

I really enjoy this fold because it's super simple and easy, but yet seems so unique and different!

Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Sending Good Thoughts

Good evening my crafty friends! It's time for a little Paper Pumpkin alternative! Tonight, we're hopping along with the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Design Team to bring you some amazing alternative ideas for the July 2022 Sending Good Thoughts Paper Pumpkin Kit. The kit included supplies to create 9 nautical themed cards.

To be honest, this kit was so fantastic, I almost hated not putting the whole thing together as is....... Almost! But with such an awesome kit, there's bound to be even more awesome alternative prospects. Right?! YAYAY!! 

I hope you think so too!  My project is a super cute and super fun Shaker Card!

I began with the Bermuda Bay card base and the Fresh Freesia card front from the kit.  I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the stitched circle out of the Fresh Freesia layer. Then, I took a scrap from an envelope I dismantled and set it behind the Freesia piece.  I drew a light circle in pencil, so that I had a reference point for stamping a background on it.  I stamped a few Bermuda Bay grassy clusters on and near the circle area. I also added a cluster of Poppy Parade starfish. 

I taped the envelope scrap to the card front, making sure that it would line back up with the Fresh Freesia panel. Then, I added Foam Adhesive strips where the pencil drawn circle showed up.  By adding the foam strips to the background piece and not the cover piece, I can use it to better hold the confetti that will go in the shaker.  I used a few bits from the kit to make my alternative card. 

In the negative spaces around the punch outs, I stamped and then fussy cut 3 of the little seahorses. I added the little fussy cut pieces to the confetti pile on the card front. 

So it looks something like this by the time you get the foam strips and then the confetti and fussy cut seahorses in there. 

I put a piece of Window Sheet across the backside of the cut out circle.  I wanted to make sure that it was dry, before I attached it to the card. It just wouldn't be much fun if the confetti all stuck around the edges. lol. Thankfully, a couple quick "SHAKE, SHAKES" and I knew it was good! :-D

This card was so much fun to make, and oh so pretty!! I sure hope y'all enjoy it! I just love it!
