Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin Blog Hop

Hi Stampers. It’s that time of the month again – Paper Pumpkin time!  This months kit is called Expressions in Color.  I’ve been excited about it ever since I saw the first graphics for it. This kit coordinates perfectly with the Artistically inked Suite.

For my Expressions in Color alternative, I used a Fresh Freesia card base 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″.  The card base was then scored and folded into an Arrow Fun Fold card. (links to directions below)

Next, I used one of the card bases as my DSP layer for my card base and the back of that same card base (from the Expressions in Color kit) to cut the white layer for inside the card.

When I saw the vellum floral arrangement, I thought it looked an awful lot like the die from the Artistic Dies.  Sure enough, it matched up perfect!  Using another one of the card bases I die cut the another card front (from the Expressions in Color kit) using the large floral die and glued the two together.  They are then attached to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. For the greenery, I separated one of the green die cuts from the kit and tucked then in under the floral arrangement.

Inside the card, I stamped the sentiment “Sending Hugs” (from the Expressions in Color kit) in Fresh Freesia ink. I think it came out really pretty – what do you think?
