The card I am sharing today is an alternative of the December 2023 Paper Pumpkin as I used elements from it to create this card along with a die from Garden Meadow Dies.  Or may be I should say I used the negative portion, (but it could be the other way around) of the die cut to create the frame for this card.  The December Paper Pumpkin was called All The Best.  It was a great kit to receive, it makes for beautiful cards that are so Springy and we need Springy feeling to make us feel more cheerful.

 

I am joining the Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge for this card.

I am also joining the Just Add Ink Challenge for this card.

1. Start with a Balmy Blue cardstock card base.
2. Cut a card base from the Kit into two pieces, this will give you the background panel.
3. Stamp a greeting on the background panel using Balmy Blue ink or a darker blue, maybe Misty Moonlight ink.  
4. Adhere the panel to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or adhesive of choice
5. Add the Basic White negative portion of the die cut to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
6. Using dandelions from the Kit, adhere them along the bottom of the Basic White frame using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
7. Pop three 2022-2024 In Color Pearls around the card front.
8. On a panel of Basic White card stock stamp in Balmy Blue ink or a darker ink a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Hooray For Surprises stamp set.
9. Stamp dandelions in Crush Curry and Old Olive ink on the sentiment panel using a stamp from the Paper Pumpkin All The Best stamps.

One of the envelopes from the kit is used as the envelope for this card. The envelope has a dandelion of the front and dandelions blowing against a blue sky for the envelope flap.
