A Paper Pumpkin Thing - Sending Hearts

Welcome to the A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop! We are a group of Stampin’ Up!® demonstrators who love to share alternative project ideas for Paper Pumpkin, the monthly One Stop Box from Stampin’ Up! Today we are featuring projects from the January 2021 Paper Pumpkin - Sending Hearts! 

Thank you so much for stopping by today. My name is Anne Marie Hile and I’m from San Antonio, TX. Welcome! 

Please make sure to follow the blog hop to see all of the awesome ideas shared this month!

You can find the full blog list toward the end of this post. 

The January kit is perfect to create 8 awesome cards, as designed. I always like to stretch my kits a little more to create additional projects for even more versatility. Using the kit components and a few extra supplies, you can really have some fun stretching your creartivity.    

*I've listed all of the measurements and details for the projects below along with a full supply list at the very end of this post. 

For my projects, I used many of the core components of the kit, along with some additional cardstock, the Heart Punch Pack and the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. The Heart Punch Pack is great because it can be used for so many occasions and the embossing is a subtle detail but really adds a lot of extra texture. 

Card Measurements and Details: 

• Basic Black Card Base: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored at 4-1/4" and folded in half
• Basic White Cardstock: 5-1/4" x 4" 
• Poppy Parade Cardstock: 5-1/8" x 3-7/8, embossed using Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (in place of Poppy Parade Cardstock, you could also use one of the envelopes in the kit)
• Black Scalloped die cut from Paper Pumpkin kit, accent with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
• Poppy Parade patterned card base from Paper Pumpkin kit: 4-1/2" x 2-3/4" 
• Basic Black Cardstock: scrap to punch a scalloped heart from Heart Punch Pack
• Poppy Parade Cardstock: scrap to punch heart from Heart Punch Pack, emboss with Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and accent with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
• "Love" die cut from Paper Pumpkin kit, accent with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
• White die cut tag from Paper Pumpkin kit: stamp sentiment in Poppy Parade ink
• Ribbon from Paper Pumpkin kit
• Rhinestone Basic Jewels

Here is a peek inside the card. I added a 3/4" x 4" strip of the patterned card base to a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Basic White Cardstock. I also stamped some coordinating sentiments in Poppy Parade ink. I just LOVE the fonts used in this stamp set! 

My coordinating project is a fun little treat box. The box itself is super easy to make because Stampin' Up! does all of the tough stuff for you. The Love You Always Treat Boxes come pre-cut and scored. They are super easy to assemble and you can decorate them any way your little heart desires. So perfect for gift-giving for ANY occasion! 

I added more of the layered punches to carry the theme throughout both projects. The boxes are VERY sturdy and can hold a variety of treats. Pleas, all of the cutting and scoring is done for you. BONUS! I filled mine with some Werther's Original candies because that's what I had on hand. 

Treat Box Measurements and Details: 

• Love You Always Treat Box
• Poppy Parade patterned card base from Paper Pumpkin kit: 2-1/2" x 3-3/4" (2 pieces, for front and back of box)
• Poppy Parade Cardstock: 1-3/8" x 3-3/4" (2 pieces, for sides of the box), embossed using Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder
• Basic Black Cardstock: scrap to punch two scalloped hearts from Heart Punch Pack
• Poppy Parade Cardstock: scrap to punch two hearts from Heart Punch Pack, emboss with Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and accent with Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
• Basic White Cardstock: 1-3/4" x 5/8" stamp sentiment in Poppy Parade ink
