PPA #13 Pumpkin Treat Holder

This cute little Pumpkin treat holder was made for the PPA #13 challenge, Anything But a Card here. I found the pattern on the Stampin' UP demonstrators web site. There are so many great resources there! This box fits three Dum-Dum suckers perfectly. This would be a great way to dress up those classroom Halloween treats. I used the Pumpkin Patch stamp set for the images.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Pumpkin Patch

Papers: Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie

Inks: Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie

Accessories: Ticket corner punch, Modern label punch and Dum-dum suckers

I'm on a Christmas Card Kick

I'm really rolling on my Christmas cards. I got an order from a customer for Christmas cards so I made this one after seeing an awesome idea on Jill Hilliard's blog. Here's the link to her blog and the idea to use the Pumpkin Patch stamp set for images other than pumpkins. She's got really cute ideas so thanks for the inspiration! I changed the card a bit and used the Top Note Die. I also used the Christmas Cocoa Specialty Papers.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Pumpkin Patch and Teeny Tiny Wishes

Papers: Whisper White, Real Red, Soft Suede, Christmas Cocoa Specialty

Inks: Old Olive, Real Red, Soft Suede

Accessories: Top Note die, Word Window Punch, Modern Label punch, 3/8 inch taffeta Mistletoe Ribbon originals, Stampin' dimensionals

PPA #11 Color Challenge Pumpkin Card

I quickly whipped up this card for the PPA#11 Color Challenge here. The colors are Perfect Plum, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie. So of course I had to use the Pumpkin Patch stamp set. I ran the Perfect Plum paper thru the Big Shot with the diamond pattern from the Backgrounds 1 texturz plates. Then just stamped the sentiment in Old Olive, punched that out with the Large Oval punch and layered that on the Scallop Oval punch. A strip of 1/2 inch Pumpkin Pie striped grosgrain ribbon and it's done. I used the layout from this card. See what different stamps and papers can do!

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Pumpkin Patch

Papers: Whisper white, Perfect plum, Old olive, Pumpkin pie, Old olive patterns dsp

Inks: Perfect plum, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip

Accessories: Large Oval punch, Scallop Oval Punch, 1/2 inch striped Pumpkin Pie grosgrain ribbon, Stampin Up Backgrounds 1 texturz plates, Stampin dimensionals

Playing with Pumpkins

Now that September is almost over, I thought I'd kick it into Halloween mode. I actually put out my Halloween decorations in the house yesterday. For this card I used the Pumpkin Patch set. I also haven't used the Big Shot in a while so I got that out too. I ran Old Olive card stock thru the Big Shot with the diamond Texturz background plate. Then I ran a piece of Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White card stock thru with the Top Note die. I trimmed the Whisper White down a bit so the Pumpkin Pie would layer nicely. A strip of Old Olive Patterns Designer Series Papers ran thru the Top Note as well. And it's just my style to use a bit of ribbon and punches too. Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Pumpkin Patch

Papers: Whisper White, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive Patterns DSP

Inks: Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive

Accessories: 1/4 inch Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon, Large Oval and Scallop Oval punches, Top Note Die, Backgrounds #1 Texturz plates, Stampin' dimensionals

Stamping 411 Pumpkin

I'm actually getting a card in for a sketch on time! I made this one for the Stamping 411 sketch here.

This Pumpkin Patch set is so cute. I used the Really Rust patterned papers from the Hostess Level 1 set. The little pumpkin is ifrom the Holiday Blitz set and I inked that up with Stampin' Write Markers. This came together really fast.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Pumpkin Patch, Holiday Blitz

Papers: Whisper white, Chocolate Chip, Really Rust, Really Rust Patterns pack DSP III

Inks: Chocolate Chip, Old Olive and Really Rust Ink pads and Stampin' Write markers

Accessories: 1 inch and 1 1/4 inch circle punches, word window punch, Modern label punch,Stampin' dimensionals

PPA7-Hurried Halloween

Whew! Where did the week go? I finally got to stamp again today and I'm playing at PPA. Every Thursday they have a fun challenge of sorts and today's was a sketch challenge here. This one was very easy. I just stamped the Little Boo image three times in Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Elegant Eggplant, punched that out with the 1 1/4 inch circle punch, layered it with the 1 3/8 inch circle punch and popped it up with some Stampin' Dimensionals. I used one of the sentiments from the Pumpkin Patch set and the Large Oval and Scallop Oval. A little ribbon and it's done.

Here's my recipe:

Stamps: Pumpkin Patch, Little Boo

Papers: Whisper White, Elegant Eggplant, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Cottage Wall DSP

Holiday Mini Sneek Peek & Stamping 411 #111

As I mentioned, I got my Holiday Mini pre-order and made this card with the Pumpkin Patch set. I also used this week's Stamping 411 challenge here. This set is too cute! You can just stamp the pumpkins and the stems or add one of three faces to make a jack-o-lantern. I will get lots of cute Halloween cards made with this set!
