Framed Scenes - A great stamp set!

 Hi all,

Here is a great stamp set for those masculine cards!  This card is quick to make, has many variations, and the dies complete the card!  Take a look!

This little card is a simple landscape folded card with a shortened front.  The panel is added using dimensionals.  The card size is 4 1/4" x 8 3/4", scored at 5 1/2".  The designer paper measures 3" x 4". This is a great size when cutting a 12" x 12" paper.  This Stamp bundle is on the Last Chance list!  That means, when it is sold out, it is sold out!  So order it while you are able!

The panels can be changed depending on which stamp you want to use!  Each one is stamped on a 2 1/2" x 3 1/4" Very Vanilla cardstock piece using Early Espresso ink.  The die cut frame fits easily over the stamped image.  Layer it onto a piece of 3 1/4" x 4" Pecan Pie cardstock and you have the embellishment you need for this card!  You can color in some of the picture using blends markers, or leave it as is!

July 2025 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives!

 I hope you enjoyed the Paper Pumpkin alternatives listed yesterday.  If you didn't see them, just look at yesterday's post.  Here are a few more alternatives I made.  Did you know with a Paper Pumpkin subscription you can order refills?  They are available about a week after the kit is mailed to you.  So, if you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, you can order the refills.  Just click here to start your  Paper Pumpkin Subscription

This alternative is made into a gift card!  You will need a paper trimmer with a score blade to make this card.  Take the card front and score a 1" line on the right side.  Add Tear and Tape or other adhesive to the top and the bottom of the inside of this scored line.  Fold over to secure to the inside of the card.  This will create a pocket for your gift card or cash.  Cute idea!  Decorate the outside of the card using the card for reference.

The inside of the card will look like this.  I have a coffee gift card in the picture for the example. 

This card uses the cute all over berry cardstock base!  You will need a trimmer for this card too, and you can make two cards with this cardstock paper!  Take the berry card base and cut from the top of the scored line down 3".  Quarter turn the card and cut from the side to the center scored line.  This will give you a piece that measures 3" x 4 1/4".  You will use this on the little card!

       

On the front of the card, add a 1 3/8" x 4" left over scrap piece of green card to use as the base for the berry basket.  Make the berry basket by putting three large berries together; add dimensionals to the bottom of the berries and add the basket over the berries to secure all pieces together.  Add this to the front of the card using mini glue dots, adhesive or glue.  Make sure you do not use adhesive on the top of the berries.  The pictures above will give you the idea of how the card looks.  Stamp the sentiment in the upper right hand side of the card and add a pop out berry to the inside base using a dimensional.  

The extra little card uses the Basic White Note Card and Envelope Set.  The scrap paper is 3" x 4 1/4".  I cut a 1/2" strip off the top to give it an extra little detail.  Add these pieces to the card using adhesive.  Then decorate as shown above.  

Are there more extras to use?  Yes!  This little card uses one left over vellum piece, one striped rectangle, one pink strawberry and a few flowers!  Wow!  So cut to assemble.  I cut a 1 5/8" x 3" piece of White cardstock for the base.  Stamped the sentiment using the Garden Green ink that comes with the kit and added it to the back.  For all the cards, I added Strawberry Slush and Pretty in Pink Gems to add a little sparkle!

What would you do with this little note?  I think leaving it on the table for the waitress, busboy or in a hotel room might be a nice gesture.  Leave me a comment!
