PAPER PUMPKIN...

I'm sure you've heard... There's a new PAPER PUMPKIN CARRIAGE that comes right to your doorstep every month filled with coordinated supplies to create sweet projects!

I remember opening my mailbox.  And there it was!

I opened it very carefully...

Then took a closer look...

I pulled the blue tissue back to peek inside...

And piece-by-piece took everything out...

What shall I make?  Let me think about it for awhile!!

I'll make something with a little different twist.

You watch. You wait. You'll see!

ROSETTE...

You can make a rosette without the Rosette Bigz Die...

o o o o o o o o o o

I used a piece of Designer Series Paper and the

Simply Scored Scoring Tool

then I embellished it with a flower made with the

Blossom Party Original Die

and topped it with a layer by the Boho Blossoms Punch.

"MAKE A WISH" is from the Sweet Essentials Stamp Set

SUPPLIES & ACCESSORIES:  Sweet Essentials Stamp Set #132085-Wood / #126457-Clear, Brights Core'dinations Cardstock (Pumpkin Pie & Tempting Turquoise) #129953, Whisper White Cardstock #100730, Brights Designer Series Paper Stack (Pumpkin Pie) #130134, Basic Black Stampin' Pad #126980, Simply Scored Scoring Tool #122334, Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine #113439, Boho Blossoms Punch #119858, Rhinestone Basic Jewels #119246, Stampin' Dimensionals #104430, Whisper White Medium Envelope #107301.

DESIGN NOTE: In a previous post, I used the Designer Rosette Bigz XL Die to make a rosette. However, the score lines on the Die are 1/2" apart so I decided to use the Simply Scored Scoring Tool because the lines are only 1/8" apart.  THE RESULTS: A skinny rosette!

LITTLE SIZZLITS...

I just counted and see that out of my next eight cards, six are made by using my Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine in one way or another.  This raised shadow design feature is both simple and sublime using a Sizzlit...

All it takes is a Sizzlit and a few Stampin' Dimensionals...

I've always loved the Little Leaves Sizzlit...

And the My Friend Stamp Set worked well on this card.
