I was so inspired by the My Paper Pumpkin kit for
Alternative April 2018 Paper Pumpkin Card
this month that I had to make an A2 card using some of the parts from the kit! Talk about FAST! I do keep a supply of 5.5 x 4.25 shimmery white card fronts, so I trimmed one of the 3×3 cards (unfolded), snailed it to the card front, attached the lighthouse and the gold-rimmed circle and tiny gold heart (cutouts from the kit – the lighthouse is popped out with dimensionals), I stamped “ahoy” and “you’re a lifesaver”, and a lighthouse stamped inside the card with the Island Indigo. The card base is a coordinating blue, lost lagoon (retired last year) VOILA! instant thank you card!
Speaking of retired products, Stampin up! has released the retiring products list, everything but stamp sets are only available until sold out, stamp sets are available through May 31st.
