Hi friends! Thanks for joining me on another IDEAS Blog Hop! This month we are exploring Holidays. Sometimes we get a real variety of subjects with this one, but it appears most people went with Christmas this time. Get ready for some fun ideas to follow!!
Here is a collage that gives you a sneak peek into some of the projects in the bundle:
Several of us used the new Woodland Wishes, released just today to customers. So, you are going to get some great ideas using this stamp set.
I wanted to stick with the same Designer Series Paper (DSP) that I used in my bundle projects. I took my color inspiration from the DSP pack. It isn't in any of your traditional holiday colors, but I think this turned out so cute! I don't have any holiday DSP, so used what I had, and am pleased with how it looks! Do you stick to only the reds & greens, or blues & silvers for the holidays, or do you like the non-traditional colors too?
Here is the complete stamp set you can order today!!
I am not a real fan of coloring but still love line art stamps. I am always trying to come up with ways to use them that doesn't require a lot of coloring on my part. Here is a good way to use the large stamp in this set, make it a background stamp!!
Are you intrigued as to what the rest of my projects look like? Since my bundle projects are exclusive to the bundle itself, you will have to get it to see.

Hello friends!! Welcome to another Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop where you can find alternative projects using your monthly Paper Pumpkin kits!
Here are the kit cards as designed:
Very fun cards!
I prefer to make my alternate cards using the stamps & ink, so you can see what can be done with the leftovers, after the consumables are gone.
I did use half of one of the card fronts, and there were some extra banners in the kit, so I used one of those too. But these are things I could easily have done using cardstock or a similar Designer Series Paper. I did add some additional ink colors too.
Here is my card using the cute little bicycle:
I like the randomness of the bicycles and the different colors. These colors I pulled from the kit itself. Stampin' Up does such a great job of color coordination, why not use it?!
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are inspired as you follow along the blog hop. Just click on the links in the list below!!
Hi friends!! I love Stampin' Up! embossing folders and am so happy I was able to participate in this blog hop. Thank you for joining us! I hope you are inspired to use our folders, and maybe even learn a new technique with them.
I ran a piece of Basic White cardstock through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine using theLadybug Picnic 3D Embossing Folder (item #167478). I turned it to the debossed side and using a sponge dauber, added some Real Red ink to the ladybug images.
I then inked up the brayer (item $162936) using the Secret Sea ink pad and rolled it over the debossed piece of cardstock.
I went back over the ladybugs again and added some Daffodil Delight ink to the smaller flowers also using a dauber.
Lastly, I added some color to the flower centers using the Timid Tiger and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends.
A couple of layers of matching cardstock, a fun sentiment, the cutest ladybug embellishments, and here is the completed card:
Hello friends! Welcome to the IDEAS Blog Hop! This month is all about the fabulous Stampin' Up! colors!! We have 40 core colors and each year we get 5 new colors that last for 2 years. While it is sad we have to say goodbye to old favorites, it is always nice to see the new colors Stampin' Up! puts out and are always on trend!
While some used one or more of the new 2026-2028 In Colors, others focused on colors from a specific Designer Series Paper pack. Either way, you cannot go wrong with the beautiful colors available to us to create with!
Here is a collage with some snippets from a project from each participating demonstrator:
The current bundle has almost 40 pages of inspiration from 10 global demonstrators!
My projects are exclusive to the bundle and normally I have a bonus project for you for the blog hop. Unfortunately, my husband fell and broke his hip requiring a full replacement, so have been a little preoccupied. So here is a little sneak peek of one of my projects:
It features the Golden Glow In-Color that is so soft and warm.

Hi friends!! Are you ready for some alternative projects from the May Paper Pumpkin kit? This kit is pretty festive with the fireworks, lanterns and lights. The colors work so well together.
Here are the cards as designed:
Here is my alternative. I took a right gate fun fold and turned it on its side to get a different look and to be able to accommodate the direction of the card base from the kit.
I prefer to use the kits nonconsumable items, stamps & ink, on my alternative projects, so you can visualize what can be done with the leftovers, once the kit is gone. I did use one of the card fronts and some ephemera pieces from the kit on this one though.
And don't forget the inside of the card:
Thanks for taking a peek! I hope you hop along with me to see some other projects using this fun kit! Just click the links from the list below.

is full of amazing creative ideas!
This graphic is a sneak peek at the some of the
projects in our May IDEAS Tutorial Bundle.
Each tutorial designer features at least one project; some include variations or even multiples. There are 10 designers this month and well over 20 projects on almost 50 pages of instructions. Each tutorial includes color photos, step by step instructions and measurements in imperial & metric.
My projects are exclusive to the bundle, but I can give you a sneak peek into another project using the same stamp set, Artistically Yours, and Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack, Beautiful Ordinary Life.
This is an easy, but versatile design that I go to often. It displays our stamps and DSP so well!

Hello fellow Paper Pumpkin subscribers, and if you are not, you should be!!
This month's kit is Lakeside Retreat, and is summery, and sorta', but not really, masculine and just an overall fun kit! I love the color palette and the nature vibes!
Here are the cards as designed:
I chose to make a treat holder from one of the card bases and some of the card front components. I did use some of the stamps, and the ink spot too. I am not sure what I will fill it with but for now, I added some kisses.
I think I will add a gift card or two and give it to one of my friends who saved me recently.
There are more alternatives to see, so please hop along using the following list. And leave us some love in the form of a comment, if you see something(s) you like!!
