Blackberry Beauty Suite creates Beautiful Fall Cards

  

  • Stampin' Up! Blackberry Beauty Suite
  • Pretty Pumpkins Stamp Set
  • Gifts for attending Stampin' Up! OnStage@Home Virtual Event

One of the most stunning suites in the July-December Mini Catalog is the Blackberry Beauty Suite.   I'm not the only one who fell in love with this suite.  It has been sold out, came back, sold out again, and the Blackberry Beauty 12" X 12" Specialty Designers Paper is now expected back November 15.   Mark your calendars now to remind yourself to order this paper as soon as it returned as it has been extremely popular.  With supply chain issue across the world, you don't want to risk missing it again.  I want to share another couple of beautiful cards created with this paper,. I paired it with the Sentiments from Pretty Pumpkins, and tags die cut using the Tailor Made Tags Dies.  I used two prints from the Blackberry Beautify Specialty Designer Series Papers and complimented it with Cinnabon Cider, and Rich Razzelberry accents.  So many of our ribbons, Metallic Dots and die cuts work so well with this set, you'll love creating with it.

The basecard  for these cards is Cinnamon Cider Cardstock.  Then, I used two prints from the Blackberry Beauty Specialty Designer Series Paper.  It is the backside and front side of the same paper, and these are actually scraps I had after creating a large number of cards with this paper.  It's such beautiful paper, I couldn't let a single shred of this paper go to waste! I accented the leaves print with Rich Berry, but Blackberry Bliss would have worked equally well.

I die cut the tags from Crumb Cake and Cinnamon Cider Cardstock using the Tailor Made Tags Dies.  This sent of dies also includes the round hole protector as well, giving the stitched tags a finished look.

I stamped sentiments from the Pretty Pumpkins Stamp Set using Blackberry Bliss ink, added Gold 3/8" Shimmer Ribbon behind the tags, and included  a couple of Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to the Tags.  The Rich Razzleberry leave is from the Beautiful Leaves Dies.

Ready for Stampin' Up! OnStage@Home!

 

We all love to get together with our friends to stamps and create.  One reason I joined Stampin' Up! was to attend the live demonstrator conventions and stamp with friends at Stampin' Up! events.  This past year Stampin' Up! has recreated these live events as virtual events, and I'm sooo looking forward to the coming event in early November.

In addition to the swag we were able to order in preparation for the event, I also received a wonderful gift from Stampin' Up! for reaching Silver Elite, thanks to my wonderful customers and downline.  These useful paper holder and pencil cup will be put to good use in my craft rooms, where I can always use more paper holders.

Cards from Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit

  

  • Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit -  October 2021
  • Today Only:  24-hr Stamp Set Sale - 15% off select stamps
  • Oh, what Fun Jolly treat packages using Gifts Galore Paper Pumpkin Kit

I had such a good time yesterday working on my Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit from October 2021 with several stampin' friends.  We met at a coffee shop and each worked on our own projects while chatting away.  I loved designing with this month's Paper Pumpkin Kit. I had planned to stick with the samples in the Paper Pumpkin Kit, but there were just too many fun elements that could be added to make these cards pop.

If you purchased this Paper Pumpkin Kit, you'll want to pull out your Peaceful Place Suite, which includes the Peaceful Place Designer Series Paper that coordinates with this kit, and also includes the Peaceful Cabin Bundle, item #156816.  Items from this suite combined with the Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit will give you even more fun creating your own versions of these handmade Christmas cards.   Although the kit includes plenty of bling--little elements that look like snow balls-- I also pulled out another item from the Peaceful Place Suite, Subtle Shimmer Sequins, item #156407, to use on a couple of these cards.   Get a head start on your Christmas Cards when you assemble this fun Paper Pumpkin Kit along with the coordinating items from the Peaceful Place Suite collection.  Also, check below for a preview of the November Paper Pumpkin Kit.  Order before November 10.   

Handmade Christmas Cards created with Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin kit



The Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit includes enough elements to create 10 Christmas cards -- 5 each of 2 designs -- with coordinating envelopes.  The cards on the left, above, are created using the instructions in the kit.  The cards on the right were created using elements from the kit plus die cuts and stamped images from the Peaceful Place Suite collection and a few additional items.  I did add a Basic Black layer to the Shaded Spruce Paper Pumpkin layout on both the left and the right bottom cards.  



Two handmade Christmas Card ideas using the October 2021 Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit


The top Christmas Card, above, includes die cut trees using the Cabin Dies from the Peaceful Cabin Bundle. I cut the trees from Silver Foil Cardstock.  And I added a bow of Silver Trim from the Simply Elegant Trim pack.    The vellum tree die cuts, and the silver "Noel" are included in the kit. The Paper Pumpkin Kits always surprise me with fun elements included in each kit.  


Two handmade Christmas Card using Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit



I  used the Peaceful Cabin stamp set to stamp the cabin image on Smoky Slate Cardstock, and die cut it using the coordinating Cabin Dies as my alternative card on the right, above.  It added sooo much to this card. I stamped a sentiment from the Paper Pumpkin Kit in Real Red and used one of the Real Red banners from the Kit.
