What a week! I’m starting to catch up again though. In today’s post you will see links to my two last Lives, photos of the cards I created and shared in my “Masking & Silhouette Stamping” Live, AND one more project that I created with the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit – a 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
For those of you who follow me on Facebook, in my newsletters, and/or on my YouTube Lives, you know that our youngest Luke just had hernia repair surgery on Thursday. He is doing great and taking it easy as he heals from this before his big move to Los Angeles next month.
I also had a minor medical procedure Wednesday afternoon. So both of us are on the mend. And my mother-in-law is on hospice care. So my husband was out of town Friday through Sunday. Hence the reasons I’ve been behind in my blog postings. Thank you for your patience.
Here is the link to my Live Online Paper Crafting Class from last Wednesday, September 3rd. In that Live I mentioned that fantastic cards can be made with just “stamps, inks and paper.” And I demonstrated silhouette stamping and masking along with ink blending and splattering techniques. (Click here or on the image below to watch that Online Paper Crafting Class from 9/3/25.)
These are photos of the cards I shared during that Live. And at the bottom of my post you will find links to the products I used to make these cards.
Branching Out Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Azure Afternoon, Blueberry Bushel, Gorgeous Grape, White Craft, and Wink of Stella inks
Prairie Grass Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Timid Tiger, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, and Wink of Stella inks
Happy Place Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Crushed Curry, Pretty In Pink, Coastal Cabana, and Wink of Stella inks
Here is the link to my Live Broadcast from last Friday, September 5th. In that Live I mentioned shared LOTS of gifted cards that I’ve received since my last show & share on 8/6/25. (Click here or on the image below to watch that Live from 9/5/25.)
If you were someone who sent me one of these lovely creations, thank you! It’s so fun to see all the creativity. And I get a lot of inspiration from all of you. If you’d like to send me cards to share in my livestreams, the address is: 14275 Raven Street NW, Andover, MN 55304
And now I present my full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout that I created with the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit. If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own. OR…become an active subscriber and get in on the refill kit while it’s available. The refill kit doesn’t contain the ink and stamp images. But you will at least gain the main pieces and can hopefully replace most of the stamp images I used with some of your own. And then…I encourage you to stay subscribed through September 10th so you can be in on the next kit (hints on the next kit can be found below).
The page bases are the light side (left) and dark (right) sides of the 12×12 Lost Lagoon Two-Toned Cardstock layered with 6×12 dark sides of Secret Sea Two-Toned Cardstock.
For the left page I layered sections of kit card bases together…upper right is 5-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, upper left is what was cut off 3″ x 5-1/2″, lower left is full card base, and lower right is 5-1/2″ x 5-1/2″.
After adding these to the base page with a 1/2″ border on the top and sides and overlapping the bottom right to cover up the bottom of the upper right, I used two envelope flaps, another kit card base (2-1/8″ x 5-1/2″) and some Mossy Meadow/Gold Ribbon for the title section.
I connected one envelope flap and the ribbon to the back side of the kit card layer. And then I attached this all with Dimensionals to conceal the bag and just show the flowers.
I cut out my letters from the second envelope flap and glued them (applying the glue with the Silicone Brush and/or the Precision Tip bottle) to the title area.
I stamped some extra flowers with Crushed Curry ink and dotted the centers with a dark brown Blends Marker. Then I embellished with extra kit flowers and some Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds.
For the right page I layered two envelopes and a couple sections of kit card bases together…a full 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card with a 3″ x 5-1/2″ piece from other cut base on the left page.
After overlapping and adding these to the base page with a 1/2″ border on the top and sides to form a 10-1/4″ x 11″ rectangle, I cut a half bag/flowers image and two circles from another kit card. Then I placed the half bag/flowers and my photo mats in this way.
I attached the die-cut circles with Dimensionals to conceal the bag and just show the flowers. I stamped some extra flowers with Crushed Curry ink and dotted the centers with a dark brown Blends Marker. Then I embellished with extra kit flowers and some Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds.
This would be a perfect layout to feature friendship or other close relationship (engagement, prom, wedding, anniversary) photos.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on August 20th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for all my alternate card ideas.

Wow! I received my August 2025 Farmhouse Florals Paper Pumpkin kit in record time! Normally I’m one of the later ones and typically get it around the 19th or 20th of the month. But I received it Saturday and have been happily creating with it during the past several days. So today I’m super excited to share with you my first set of alternate project ideas.
This August 2025 Farmhouse Florals kit has enough supplies to make 9 cards (3 of 3 kinds). Did you get the kit and want to make them as intended? Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video.
I love to show kit subscribers other ways to use their supplies. I like to think outside the box, see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages, and more. So today I have several different card ideas for you (including 9 cards that I made from the supplies of 3!) and lots of tips and tricks. Earlier today I demonstrated these ideas during my Live Online Paper Crafting Class on YouTube. Maybe you tuned in?
Watch my videohere to get measurements, directions, and tips (or you can just click on this image below if you are already in my blog post). Scroll down to see close-up photos, access the links that I mentioned in my video, and see a list of extra supplies (linked to my online store) that I used to make my creations. Then remember to visit my blog again soon, because I’ll have many more alternate projects that I’ll be sharing in future posts!
I hope you enjoyed what I shared and gained some creative inspiration! Below are close-up photos of the alternate cards I created. (Remember to watch my video first to get measurements, tips and directions.) And the products that I’ve shared or mentioned are shown/listed below and are currently linked to my online store.
Nine cards from the supplies of the three kit cards Follow these directions with all your kit supplies and you can get 27 cards!!

If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own. OR…become an active subscriber and get in on the refill kit (which typically becomes available after the 20th). The refill kit doesn’t contain the ink and stamp images. But you will at least gain the main pieces and can hopefully replace most of the stamp images I used with some of your own.

I have three more projects to share with you that I created with the Sweeter With You July 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit.
My full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout was SOOoo fun to make. I got the idea to distress/sand the light two-tone cardstock on the left page along the left side and bottom from a card I saw on Pinterest. And then the creative juices started flowing. I distressed the edges of the light Garden Green layers to expose the white core and inked the edges of the dark layers with Garden Green ink. Both techniques made the edges “pop” so much more.
For the right page, I added my outer four 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ photo mats 5/8″ from the outer edges, added the four others in-between, and then added the decorated pink square in the middle with Dimensionals.
To decorate that square, I sponged the edges with Strawberry Slush ink. Then I added the branch of berries and trimmed up the bottom of the stem. I added the flowers with the Flower Accents embellishments in the centers. And lastly I added a bow of Linen Thread that I had colored slightly with a bit of Garden Green ink.
You may notice too in this photo that I used a Bone Folder and Dimensionals to give lift and shadow to the strawberry, leaf and flower accents. I did this in fact for both pages. And then I splattered on Poppy Parade Blends ink and Wink of Stella for speckles, sparkle, and texture.
For the left page I added the distressed 11-3/4″ x 11-3/4″ light Garden Green page layer to the 12″ x 12″ dark Garden Green. I added my upper right 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ photo mat 5/8″ from the outer edges, added the three others nearby, and then added the YUM pink letters along the left side with Dimensionals (which I also sponged with Strawberry Slush ink along the edges).
I finished off by building a larger and a smaller cluster of berries and flowers in the two bottom corners making sure I trimmed anything that extended beyond the edges of the light Garden Green.
And of course I splattered on Poppy Parade Blends ink and Wink of Stella for speckles, sparkle, and texture.
Well, below is my completed card that I was working towards, and I’m quite happy with it. It’s sweet and simple. The “fabric” underneath is from a kit envelope flap. I added extra lines of marker (Granny Apple Green and Pool Party) to the lines in the plaid pattern to jazz it up a bit.
The bottom of the plaid “fabric” and the largest strawberry are attached with Dimensionals. The top of the plaid “fabric” and the smaller strawberries are just stuck down flat.
And the card base is the green kit card folded inside out. (There is a rectangular layer of white from the rest of the envelope on the inside for a place to write.)
I made and shared the blue version of this card a couple weeks back. This peach version includes “jazzed up” plaid background paper where I once again added extra lines of markers (Peach Pie and Poppy Parade).
You can watch my 7/23/25 video for the card assembly directions and tips. I had also promised to share this peach version, but I never got the demonstrating the plaid for both the above and below cards and had to wait to share them here.
OH! I also added in some Lemon Lolly ink with a Blending Brush in the background of both white layers.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on June 25th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for 14 card ideas.
If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own. OR…become an active subscriber and get in on the refill kit. The refill kit doesn’t contain the ink and stamp images. But you will at least gain the main pieces and can hopefully replace most of the stamp images I used with some of your own.

I have to say I think the June 2025 Sweeter With You Paper Pumpkin kit is one of my absolute favorites! I suppose it helps that I’m a huge fan of berries. I love their taste AND I love how healthy they are! I came home on Friday evening and my kits (yes, I get more than one) were there waiting for me. Thankfully I had some time on Monday and Tuesday to create with the contents to come up with my first set of alternate project ideas so I could share them with you today.
This July 2025 Sweeter With You kit has enough supplies to make 8 cards (2 of 4 kinds). Did you get the kit and want to make them as intended? Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video.
I love to show kit subscribers other ways to use their supplies. I like to think outside the box, see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages, and more. So today I have 4 different card ideas for you (two of them are fun folds) and lots of tips and tricks. Earlier today I demonstrated these ideas during my Live Online Paper Crafting Class on YouTube. Maybe you tuned in?
Watch my videohere to get to get measurements, directions, and tips (or you can just click on this image below if you are already in my blog post). Scroll down to see close-up photos, access the links that I mentioned in my video, and see a list of extra supplies (linked to my online store) that I used to make my creations. Then remember to visit my blog again soon, because I’ll have many more alternate projects that I’ll be sharing in future posts!
BTW…YouTube cut me off before I was done sharing. So there were two cards I didn’t quite finish that I will share when I post again on August 8th. AND I was unable to announce the FREE SHIPPING promotion going on today. So I hope you will scroll down to read the details so you can take advantage of that great deal going on today through Friday.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared and gained some creative inspiration! Below are close-up photos of the alternate cards I created. (Remember to watch my video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
**Products that I’ve shared or mentioned are shown/listed below and are currently linked to my online store.

Sweeter With You Museum Gallery Fold Card Visit my 7/19/25 blog post for details on putting together this type of card.
Here are a couple photos I took during the assembly of this card that you might find helpful.
Another Sweeter With You Fun Fold Card
I’ll be sharing my other version of this on August 8th, because there is a technique that got cut out of today’s video that is a part of that card.
