8 August 2020 Paper Pumpkin Alternative Projects: World's Greatest

If you follow me, you know that I rarely make the Paper Pumpkin projects as designed. I love the challenge of taking the pieces from my monthly subscription kit and creating something new! The August 2020 World's Greatest kit included supplies to make 9 cards -- 3 each of three designs.

Stampin' Up! Celebration Tidings Halloween Card + 8 Bonus Projects

There are only two Halloween-specific stamp sets in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. I don't send a lot of Halloween cards, so I prefer the multi-occasion bundles that cover several holidays. And there are lots of new bundles that offer that variety! One of them is the Celebration Tidings bundle. The versatile dies can be used to make tag toppers or cards. This Happy Haunting card uses the smallest label die in the set.

Stampin' Up! Love of Leaves Card + Thursday Night Stamp Therapy Replay

When I first saw the Love of Leaves bundle in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog, it didn't do much for me. The watercolor-style images in gray ink on the page just didn't feel very autumn and the projects, although lovely, weren't selling it. Then I got some swaps from fellow demonstrators and saw how amazing the coordinating Stitched Leaves dies are -- and how incredible these leaves are once stamped in COLOR! Needless to say, I changed my mind and now the Love of Leaves bundle is one of my favorite from the Mini Catalog! I know you'll love it too, so I decided to feature it for my August Stamp of the Month Club. Here's the first card in this month's card kit:

Stampin' Up! Beautiful Autumn Tuck Fold Card

Whether you are a regular visitor or just hopping by, welcome to Julie's Stamping Spot! I'm so excited to be participating in the Top Ten International Highlights Winner’s Blog Hop August 2020 hosted by Kylie Bertucci! First, I want to thank you for taking the time to vote for my card in the gallery a couple of weeks ago. There were so many amazing projects and I am honored to have my card receive so many votes!

I was inspired to make this fun fold card by a swap card I received from Gwen Duckworth. I used the template as a Mystery Stamping card with my team and then shared the recording on my Facebook page.

Stampin' Up! Life's a Beautiful Journey Card + MORE Ideas!
