And...in celebration of Paper Pumpkin's 4th birthday April's kit was inspired and designed by Stampin' Up! CEO Sara Douglass...which makes this hop all the more exciting! I've created two CAS cards with this month's kit...aptly named A Sara Thing...so let's get started!
One of the things I love about this kit is its clean lines and bright, fun colors...including the envelopes! Here, I've paired washi tape (included in the kit) with a fun accent piece...cut from the envelope...and a bold, repeating sentiment to create this Dad card. It's masculine and fun...and perfect for Father's Day. Or...you could switch out the sentiment for a teacher or friend, too!

ReplyDeleteWish my dad were alive to send the father's day card to.
ReplyDeleteCreative pair of cards!
ReplyDeleteI like seeing all of the cards as I ho along. But, I especially enjoy seeing the clean and simple, since that is usually my style and my comfort zone. It never ceases to amaze me of ideas that are so good, like repeating the same stamp, that I come across in a hop that I have not used in such a long time. Hopefully, at the end of the day I will remember the inspiration from your wonderful cards!
ReplyDeleteLove the new Lemon Lime Twist, especially with the black. Can hardly wait to get my hands on some!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Sue! I love that you have shown how this kit can be used to make a masculine or a feminine card! Both cards turned out fabulous! Thanks for the inspiration! I'm so happy to be hopping with you! Can't wait to see what you have in store next month! Cheers! 💖
