Today's Daily SPS Inspiration with Marlene - Card


Hello Everyone!
Marlene here from ScrappinCookie!

I'm happy to be here today to share a quick card  I made using just a few of the products you can find at the ShopPumpkinSpice Store.

My card uses papers from the Echo Park Sweet Day 6x6 Paper Pad. I love the floral pattern and the texture of the papers in this Echo Park Paper Pad and for $4.19 at the ShopPumpkinSpice Store - its a MUST HAVE!


I made a quick Paper Rosette from Bazzill Kraft Cardstock using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Rosette Die. Using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Rosette Die is SOO MUCH easier than scoring every 1/4" - DEFINITLY recommend it. I then stamped the sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on to Carta Bella's Natural White Linen Cardstock. I just have to tell you that Carta Bella's Natural White Linen Cardstock has become my FAVORITE and GO TO cardstock!! I just LOVE the texture, its just PERECT - even for stamping!!


I love adding small mulberry paper roses to my cards. For today's card I used a small cluster of  Prima Mulberry Rose- love that they have a touch of gold on the petals.


As a final touch a tied some twill ribbon I had in my stash and added a small bow made from  "Cappuccino" Baker's Twine with a small blue button.


I hope you have enjoyed my ShopPumpkinSpice Inspiration! ALL products used in my card can be found at the ShopPumpkinSpice Store.

Today's Daily SPS Inspiration with June ~ card


  Hi!  This is June Houck with a little Thursday inspiration at Shop Pumpkin Spice.  I recently purchased a new Cricut Cartridge called "Creative Cards."  I think this cartridge is going to see a lotta love from me.  I thought this particular card would work well with a large floral print behind the trellis cut and possibly with a quatrefoil patterned paper.  What do you think?

  My Echo Park 12x12 papers came out to play today!  "Victoria Gardens" works well for Spring and for Mother's Day and "Style Essentials" is a great collection when I need a coordinating paper.  I have used "Style Essentials" with other Echo Park collections as well as My Mind's Eye and Carta Bella; it makes terrific monochromatic cards too.  I also used my i-rock heat tool and black gems on my sentiment tag.  Those Imaginisce gems already have glue  on the back and the i-rock tool melts it into the card stock.  Love that!

Supplies:
paper:  Echo Park "Style Essentialspink quatrefoil (background); Echo Park "Victoria GardensRose Garden (large print), Wind Chime (trellis), and Rose (small green floral print on sentiment tag); card stock by Stampin' Up! (old olive)
Cricut cartridge:  Creative Cards
punches:  Stampin' Up! (sentiment tag)
sentiment:  Stampin' Up! Teeny Tiny Wishes

Happy Thursday!  June

Today's Daily SPS Inspiration with Cheryl ~ Card

Hello!  Although my crafty mojo has been on a bit of a hiatus lately (I think it is off looking for spring), I couldn’t help but be inspired by the beautiful, warm colors from Echo Park’s For the Record 2 collection.

2013-03-27 PSS Good Luck WM_thumb[1]

In my original idea for this card, I was planning on having more of these beautiful floral papers showing. I love the pink and orange together. But, the doily on my desk some how made it’s way on my card. Once again, I used some coordinating chipboard. I jazzed it up a bit using some liquid pearls on the flower centers.

Don’t forget you still have time to join challenge #12 – Lucky (your interpretation). To link up your “lucky” project or to see the challenge details, stop by the Pumpkin Spice blog.

Thank you for stopping by! Have a great day!

Today's Daily SPS Inspiration with Missy ~ Card

Good morning everyone!

It's Missy here with you once again to show you another card I made with these super cute papers from Jillibean Soup!!!  I'm not sure about you, but I'm totally over the cold winter weather we've been having  here, so I was happy to see the super cute spring like papers and colors in the Neapolitan Bean Bisque paper pad.  I kept my card very simple, so those pretty papers could be the focus. 


I used the My Pink Stamper Serendipity Skies ink pad to ink around the edges.  That fun sentiment is from the My Favorite Things New Beginnings stamp set.  I added some bakers twine from The Twinery to finish it off.  Be sure to stop by Shop Pumpkin Spice when you get a chance to check out the great deals they've got going on!!!

Today's Daily SPS Inspiration from Agnes---card

hello everyone,
this is agnes 
(today i am a sub for tanya).

i hope you like my card.

Some People...
7" x 5"
i am in love with these papers. they are from cosmo cricket . i have the kit and there is so much to choose from in it. the heart was die cut with my cricut expression. i also did some sewing machine stitching in the center and i also stitched bordered the card.
---a very quick card but with a long lasting impact---
(imho)
the sentiment is very meaningful for someone you care about, to let them know how you feel about them. 
i cut it out from one of the border papers that come in the kit.
the small button flowers on the side are from a sizzix die.

i even finished the inside:

i think it looks so soft with a spring feeling in it.

this is the kit i used:
and this is the link for the individual supplies

thanks so much for stopping by and i certainly hope i inspired you today,

take care!
