A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop World’s Greatest!

 

Good Morning! I am so glad you are visiting today for our A Paper Thing Thing Blog Hop for August that is happening! Our team was busy creating alternate projects using our August Paper Pumpkin kits. After you have viewed my projects, make sure you visit my teammates as I’ll direct you at the end of my post!

 

The August kit is called the World’s Greatest and how perfect to honor those special people in our lives, especially with all that is going on in our world today! I bet as you hand these projects out to someone you feel has gone above and beyond, you’ll be rewarded with a touching smile.

 

I have two alternate projects to show you today.

This is my first one using the left-over die-cut sheet:

These are the layers I used for Card #1:

• Card Base: Calypso Coral Cardstock 11″ x 4-1/4″. Score and fold at 5-1/2″. 
• Layer #2: Cut one of the patterned card bases to measure 5-1/4″ x 4″ and glue to card front.
• Layer #3: Trim the left-over die-cut layer to measure 5″ x 3-3/4″ and glue to card front using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

• Inked Images: Using Pacific Point Ink, stamp the large ribbon image inside the two largest die-cut holes. Stamp the #1 image in the top left hole and the bottom right hole. 
• Sentiment Layers: Use the yellow printed layer from the kit to cut two circles  using the 1-1/2″ Circle Punch and glue to the center of the stamped ribbon. Stamp the sentiments on Whisper White Cardstock and using Pacific Point Ink and cut both using the Layering Circles Dies scallop that is 1-1/8″ wide. Glue to the center of the yellow circles using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Flowers: Using one of the Pacific Point die-cut circles, cut 4 flower using the Small Blossoms Punch. Stack two together using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. Glue to the remaining two holes inside the die-cut on the front. 
• Bling: Glue a gold star in the center of each flower.

Card #2:

For this card, use the same layers as the shaker card from the kit but add the following:

• Stamp the ribbon image repeatedly on the Whisper White Card Base using Bumblebee Ink. 
• Use any heart image to stamp inside each ribbon using Pacific Point Ink. I used the heart image from the Heart To Heart stamp set. 
• Assemble the shaker card along with the gold stars on the inside.
• Cut the ribbon to measure 5″ long and trim the ends into a banner shape. Glue to card front using Tear & Tape.

•  Stamp the sentiment on Whisper White Cardstock that measures 3-3/4″ x
  3/4″ using Pacific Point Ink. Trim the ends into a banner shape and
  glue to the ribbon.
• Add some gold stars to the sentiment layer.
