Today I have two more alternate projects to share that I made with the Sending Hearts Paper Pumpkin kit. Tomorrow is the last day to sign up (or have an active subscription) for Paper Pumpkin so you get in on this month’s February kit. And if your subscription is through me, you’ll be able to enjoy exclusive ideas shared in video tutorials from myself and 5 other creative Stampin’ Up! demonstrators on the PPX Crew. 
Here are a two more projects that I created with this past month’s Sending Hearts kit: a love-themed scrapbook page layout and a z-fold layer card.
My page layout was built around the triangle tile heart pattern you may have seen in quilting.
Extra products I used… See below for a complete list of extra products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
- Basic Gray 12×12 Cardstock (from the Neutrals pack)
- Two pieces that are 12″ x 12″
- Red patterned card base from the kit
- Five squares that are 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″
- Two squares that are 1-1/2″ x 1-1/2″
- Red envelope paper from the kit
- Five squares that are 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″
- Two squares that are 2″ x 2″
- Basic White Cardstock
- Six squares that are 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″
- Basic Black Cardstock for photo mats (these can be various sizes based on your photos)
- 4-1/2″ x 5-1/2″
- 4″ x 5-1/4″
- Two pieces that are 4-1/8″ x 5-1/2″
- Two pieces that are 4-1/8″ x 4-1/8″
Directions…
- Prepare all the pieces according the measurements above.
- Then cut all the squares diagonally to get triangles.
- Form the heart by following the pattern in the photo below. After laying it all out with spacing that seems even, adhere one piece at a time. (I found it easiest to add corners, then sides, and then the middle.)
- Attach the smaller triangles on the right page next.
- Stamp the large heart and the hearts/flowers image/
- Add photo mats, double stacked “Love”, and the pearls.
My z-fold layer card was so much fun to make that I made extras and sent them off to five of my lucky subscribers.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements
- Basic Black Cardstock
- 4-1/4” x 9-3/4” scored parallel to short side at 3-1/4″ and 6-1/2”
- 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
- Red patterned card base from the kit
- 4″ x 5-1/4″ with center 3″ x 4″ piece removed (see directions below) and flipped over
- Two pieces that are 1/4″ x 3″
- Printed heart piece from the kit
- Cut off 1/8″ from each side to get a 3″ x 3-1/2″ piece
- Black satin ribbon from the kit
- 12″
Directions
- To get all the red patterned card base pieces, cut one of the card bases in the kit in half. Then cut 1/4″ off the the side and 1/4″ off the bottom. From those strips cut two 3″ lengths. Then to remove the center 3″ x 4″ piece from the remaining 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece, cut 1/2″ in on the right and left and cut 5/8″ in from the top and bottom.
- Stamp “Love” and “you” onto heart piece. Stamp “xoxo” on flipped over center card base piece.
- Tie the ribbon onto the heart piece.
- Fold the Basic Black z-fold layer. Attach the frame card base piece to the 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ Basic Black. Then attach the z-fold layer so it’s centered and opens as shown in the photos.
- Add the thin red strips, then the heart layer to the front of the closed z-fold.
- Open up the z-fold and add the pink enamel hearts from the kit and some Gold Glitter Enamel Dots to finish the card.
