A Paper Pumpkin Thing Key To My Heart Kit

Thank God it is FRIDAY!!! Lets just take a minute to think about the fact that TARYN, turns 13 tomorrow!!! I will be the parent to ALL teenagers.... I am not sure I am ready for this! We had basketball last night and had a plan of going to dinner tonight but that may be messed up with sick boys! 

This month with A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop, we are hopping with the kit "Key To My Heart". I had a great little add of treat boxes that I decided to skip... I couldn't wait to come up with an alternative, because if you know me hearts are not my favorite! Let me show you what I have created.

The card started with a base of Pale Papaya and mat of Calypso Coral Cardstock. I decided to use a card base to create my tag with the Tailor Made Tags dies. This sits nicely on piece of the Delicate Desert DSP. I tied a cute bow with the thread from the kit with a key and lock die cut from the kit. The sentiment was stamped in Gray Granite ink and was the perfect touch!

Hello!!! Happy New Year to all of you, I can't believe that our holiday break has come and gone so quickly. Junior High girls basketball is in full swing. Taryn has really enjoyed it this far and her second game is tonight. I ended up missing her first game driving back from Children's as Josh was scheduled to have his Ambulatory EEG. Never a dull moment!! I hope that your New Year is off to an uneventful start!

I am back with my One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop Team with our January Blog Hop! This month we are hopping with new goodies from the Stampin' Up! Jan-April 2023 Mini Catalog! Yes you read that right, our Mini Catalog is from January to April this year. When I started seeing all the new goodies I just knew that the Desert Details and Delicate Desert DSP was going to be on my list! Let me show you what I have created with this gorgeous suite!

This bundle speaks to my Boho Cowgirl soul! I love the DSP and stamp set. I am sure you are going to get tired of seeing things with it! I inked up the succulent with sponge daubers first with Blackberry Bliss and the outside with Soft Succulent. I then used the coordinating die to cut it out. This is layered over a border cut with the Desert Details Dies of Soft Succulent card stock and is adhered over a piece of the Delicate Desert DSP. I have cut the Aztec like piece from the Dry Brushed Metallic DSP and it is tucked behind the succulent. This is nicely layered onto a piece of Blackberry Bliss card stock. The sentiment is stamped in Gray Granite on a piece of Basic White. This is accented with the Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins.

I liked my succulent above so much that I stamped and die cut another one. I stamped the sentiment Stylish Shapes largest stitched circle. I again tucked the Dry Brushed Metallic Aztec die cut back behind the succulent and have accented it with the Pastel Adhesive Back Sequins. This is adhered to a white gift bag I found at Christmas time and worked out so cute!
