Paper Pumpkin Blog Hop - Alternative Inspiration January 2022 Kisses & Hugs

Welcome to the September Paper Pumpkin Blog Hop. A Group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators join to create collaboratively using the current Paper Pumpkin Kit. Specifically, we design alternative cards, scrapbook pages, or other paper projects using the contents of the kit and a few coordinating additions from our own stash.

There was unfortunately some delays in shipping with the Jan kit, but still got it in time to make some valentines cards! This kit also has an add on option for Kisses & Hugs Mini Treat Boxes. They are super easy to make. Click on this video to see details on assembling the kit and treat boxes.

Details: 

Kit contains enough supplies to create 10 cards—5 each of 2 designs—and 10 coordinating envelopes
Kit features an exclusive Two-Step photopolymer stamp set
Kit includes a Gray Granite Classic Stampin’ Spot
Card size: 4-1/2" x 4-1/4" (11.4 x 10.8 cm) heart-shaped cards; folded
Coordinating colors: Blushing Bride, Flirty Flamingo, Gray Granite, Very Vanilla

Demonstrator Rachel Tessman shared some great ideas on her YouTube Video you can find here 

I used her idea of a fun fold taking the 1st and 3rd heart and scoring it down the middle then folding it back. 

I decided to make this a chocolate card. I've been working on so many treat packaging that Chocolate has been on my mind! I used the Nothing Better Than stamp set and Love You More Than Dies. I added some of my own inks and the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. I also used a sentiment from the Love & Happiness Stmp set, but the rest of the supplies are from the kit 

Making the Chocolate- I used very Vanilla paper 

• Ink: 
• Early Expresso - I stamped off for the 'inside' part of the dark chocolate
• Flirty Flamingo - outside of pink chocolate
• Blushing Bride - inside of pink chocolate
• VersaMark - I used the Metallic Gold to heat emboss the front sentiment on the pink card

The "White" chocolate I also used Clear Embossing and the Ivory Stampin' Blend over the top to add color.
