August 2015 Paper Pumpkin

I am in LOVE with this month's Paper Pumpkin subscription box.  

This month, I decided to change the projects, just a little.  

I cute the original cards down an 1/8th of an inch and added Basic Black and Very Vanilla as the base. I was able to double the number of cards by doing this... But you don't have to make changes, because the cards are beautiful with the original instructions.

I kept the boxes the same, but added a little more depth by cutting into the top layer of the flower petals, so that I could make them have a little more of a curve.

Never heard of Paper Pumpkin, and want to know more.  

Paper pumpkin is a monthly craft subscription box for $19.95 (including shipping).  Click here if you want to know more.  Until September 10th, you can get two months for half off! Just use promo code HALFOFF and when it asks for your demonstrator, please remember me Sarah Morel.   

Thanks and Happy Stamping!

Halloween Gift Ideas

It has been a little to long since I have spent time designing cards and 3D paper projects.  So here are the promised crafts I made this weekend.  

I really enjoy when Stampin' Up! releases the holiday catalog.  It's so much fun playing around with the new stamps and framelits.  

The best part about these projects is, I didn't have to cut anything out thanks for the die cut framelits that matches the stamps.  Thank you Stampin' Up! for saving me from the painstaking scissor cutting.

Here are all the items that I used for the projects.  They will be available on September 1st for everyone.
