Victoria's Garden using Victoria Gardens papers!

Hello everyone!  It's Friday and that means it's my (Ann) turn to share a creation with you!

For today's SPS share, I've used some gorgeous papers from the recently released Echo Park Victoria Gardens Collection.  The patterns and colors are absolutely amazing in this collection and I'm kicking myself for not ordering some of the individual papers and journaling cards, which is of course all available at Pumpkin Spice for super low prices.  Check it out:





For this card, I've used papers from the  Echo Park - "Victoria Garden" 6x6 Pad and paired it up with a colored scene. Although the image is named Pipi, I'm deciding to call this card Victoria's Garden to match the papers I used :)


Well, that's it for me this Friday.  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and don't forget to check out the new stuff that recently hit the Pumpkin Spice shelves!

Tri-Fold Card By SugarGem

Hi Everyone! It's Lenae over at SugarGem today!
I am revisiting a card I made a while ago that my good crafting friend showed me. It's so simple yet so special! It is such a fun card to make and no matter how many times I make it I love it! This card is using EVERYTHING from Pumpkin Spice. All the paper and embellishments are from Echo Park Summer Days Collection accept the Twine is from the My Minds Eye Lime Twist Collection.




Wouldn't this be cute with a Pumpkin Spice gift card tucked under the flap?


Here is what you will need!
Echo Park Summer Days collection
Lime Twist Happy Day twine
Zip dry glue
Scoring tool -I LOVE and can't live without my Martha Stewart Score board.
Paper Trimmer
Corner Rounder punch (This step is completely up to you, but I did use one for the inside flap)

Here are the dimensions for you to make this cute card!
1. For your base trim to 11 5/8" x 5.25"
2. Score along 11 5/8" at 4.5" and 9.75"
3. Cut another piece at 9" x 5 1/8" score at 3 7/8" (this is your insert piece)
a.Glue the largest section of this piece down to the center section of your 11 5/8" piece.
See pictures
b.I used a corner punch to round the corners of the flap. See pictures
4. Now all you have to do is decorate with Echo Park Summer Days Collection and My Minds Eye Lime Twist Twine from Pumpkin Spice!

If I can inspire just one person today I have done my job!
XOXO SugarGem

"Springtime" Heritage Card Set

Hi everyone, this is Carissa from Happily Ever Paper Crafter.

Today is my first Monday posting on the Pumpkin Spice Blog! I am so happy to be apart of this amazing Design Team. I am thrilled to be showing you my creations using the amazing products found at the ShopPumpkinSpice store. 

I created these four matching 3x3 cards using the Echo Park "Springtime" collection 6x6 paper pad.


This 24 sheet double sided paper pad is selling right now for $3.35!!! Great price!!!



Using my Gypsy and the Heritage Cricut cartridge, I cut out the birds, shadows, charms, and flourishes at varying sizes. I used 3 different pieces of double sided paper. I varied the layouts by turning over the paper and using the other side. 

I took two other 6x6 sheets, cut them in half, and scored them at 3'' to make the cards. Easy peasy.



I saved the negative cuts from the inside of the charm layer and used them inside the cards. Just stamp a sentiment when needed and the card is ready to go.


Supplies:
Echo Park "Springtime" 6x6 paper pad
Heritage Cricut Cartridge, Cricut Expression machine, Gypsy
Antique Linen Distress Ink
Rhinestone bling
Ribbon from my stash


Thanks for crafting with me today! Visit my blog http://www.happilyeverpapercrafter.blogspot.com/ anytime and see all my creations using SPS products. I just can't get enough of this stuff!!
