This one I started with a CASEd card from Pinterest. I switched out the colors for Night of Navy, Balmy Blue, Basic Gray and Very Vanilla. The sentiment is from Hello Cupcake. I used the retired Decorative Label Punch and the Bitty Butterfly Punch. The Ribbon is from the Sale-a-Bration Ribbon pack and the butterfly is topped off with some rhinestones. The navy background is embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder. I just love how this came out!

I loved it so much in fact, I created a second one in red! This one uses the same elements but in Merry Merlot, Memento Black, Basic Gray and Very Vanilla. I used the Everyday Label Punch for the sentiment & it is topped off with the ribbon from my stash. I colored the butterfly's rhinestones with the Cherry Cobbler Blends Marker & then darkened it with the Soft Suede Stampin' Blends Marker. The sentiment is from Firefly.

This last one was switched up a bit using a single line of medallions. The colors are Bermuda Bay, Memento Black, Sahara Sand and Pool Party. The background is embossed with the Subtle Embossing Folder. Happy Birthday is cut from Well Written Dies. A piece of vellum anchors the sentiment and the copper and white Baker's Twine is from Layer Leaves Paper Pumpkin. The butterfly's rhinestones are colored with Bronze Stampin' Blends Markers. It is oh so pretty!

Sometime I do not have a printed paper - but they are so easy to make with a few stamps. This one uses the Snowflake Sentiments for the large 2 snowflakes & the small snowflake cluster from Still Night. Add a navy Everyday Label Punch layered with Glimmer white swirls and a Glimmer silver snowflake and top it off with a few rhinestones - how easy is that?!

Special Delivery from the North Pole

The November 2018 Paper Pumpkin was really cute including the plaid envelopes they provided! Well - I could not let all of the cuteness go to waste - so I had to cut apart the envelope to utilize the cute plaid within. When I did that, there was this weird extra triangular piece left over and try as I might - every time I used it it sill ended up looking like an envelope - so I gave in & said - let me just make an envelope AS the card. So I went off to my stash to find an across the miles type sentiment & came across the Special Delivery from the North Pole - perfect!!! This is a typical A2 top fold card.

The card front is made from 2 pieces of the leftover cut apart envelope. I highlighted the seam of the envelope with a marker to get more of the point across that it is an envelope and mounted that on the enclosed card base in the Paper Pumpkin kit..

~Enjoy
