SPS November Blog Hop

Welcome to Pumpkin Spice November blog hop!
If you've come here from the  Pumpkin Spice Store Blog, then you're on the right track! 

Wow, can you believe it's November already?  Just feels like yesterday that this design team was formed :)  We're very happy that you are joining us again this month for another hop!  Today the Pumpkin Spice DT is kicking off November with a blog hop  We're featuring Crate Paper's line of products as well as sneak peeking the wonderful creations that June created for her Kit of the Month.  Let's get started!


First up, a sneak peak of one of June's Kit of the Month creations! She has put together a wonderful collection of supplies using MME's Season's Greetings line.  I love all the papers and embellishments in this line!



If you want to see the entire thing, head over to the Pumpkin Spice Store to check out June's kit as well as explore the various other goodies that the shop has to offer.

For today's blog hop creations, I put together two Christmas cards using papers from the Crate Paper Peppermint 6x6 Paper Pad.  I like that though this is a holiday-themed pad, I could use a lot of these patterns on non-holiday cards.  Don't ya just love versatility?  I also used a lot of other products from the Shop Pumpkin Spice Store so make sure to check out my supplies list :)


Papers: Crate Paper Peppermint 6x6 Paper Pad; Sentiment: Whimsy Stamps Winter Letter Seals; Embellishments: The Twinery Twine in Honeydew, doily, seam binding, button; Tools: Spellbinders dies, Tonic Guillotine Cutter, ATG gun (refills here)


And of course, being the generous person that she is, Denine is giving away a $25 Gift Certificate on the Shop Pumpkin Spice blog!  To be eligible for the prize, please make sure to comment on all the DT's hop posts.  We would also love it if you followed the Shop Pumpkin Spice blog and also followed us on Facebook HERE.  You get all the latest news about weekend specials and also some inspiration to help you get your creative juices flowing :)

Winter's Butterflies

Hello!  I hope everyone has had a great week so far :)  Mine is a bit unforgettable, lots of things happened, but I don't want to bore you with those details.

For today's post, I have a rather simple winter card to share with you.  I used papers from Echo Park Season's Greetings, which may be my favorite Christmas line for this year.  The edges were all distressed with  Distress Ink Tea Dye.  The snowflakes were cut using Spellbinders Create-a-flake 3, which is available from SPS for a very good price!  The label was also cut with a Spellbinder die (Fancy Tags).  The pearls were made using Viva Decor Pearl Pen in Cream.

Sentiment: Whimsy Stamps Winter Letter Seals; Papers: Echo Park Season's Greetings; Embellishments: May Arts twill ribbon, Viva Decor Pearl Pen; Tools: Spellbinder dies, Cheery Lynn dies


Ribbon Tilda

It's been soooo long since I've used a Magnolia stamp, but I got to play with one last night!  I chose Ribbon Tilda, who is just absolutely adorable.

I actually don't have any idea what what's going on with this card, lol.  I stated with two pieces of patterned paper and tried to follow the sketch at Dutch Magnolia Lovers (it's still there), but then kept piling things on and on and ended up with what you see below, lol.  The ornaments are from the Seasonal Ornaments sentiment set and they were cut out using the Ornaments Die Set.  I also went kind of crazy with the gold glitter : /  I also used as many of my new Cheery Lynn Designs dies as I could.  Yeah, I know, I have no idea what I was thinking.

Anywho, hope you're having a good week so far!
