PPX Crew Monthly Blog Hop - Celebrate In Color May 2022 Paper Pumpkin alternative project

 

Welcome to the PPX CREW Monthly Blog Hop! Every month we provide exclusive video projects that feature the current Paper Pumpkin kit to our subscribers. As an extra bonus we also have a monthly blog hop that features alternative projects that we have created using the current kit. Thank you for hopping along and visiting me today! 

This month we are featuring the May 2022 Celebrate In Color Kit. If you would like to make the kit contents as intended there are enough supplies to make 10 cards, 2 each of 5 designs that feature the 5 new 2023-2025 Stampin' Up! In-Colors. But mix up your kit contents and create alternative projects with the supplies and some from your stash and you can extend the number of cards or projects you can create even more cards and projects.

Here is the #simplestamping alternate card I came up with.

Really a fun and quick card. The extra supplies you will need from your stash are:

• Sweet Sorbet, Basic White and Basic Black cardstock
• Tuxedo Black Memento ink pas
• Sweet Sorbet ink pad
• Black mat dots
• Stampin' Blend in Dark and Light Sweet Sorbet
• Stamparatus

I hope you are inspired to re-create my card from your Celebrate In Color kit supplies. For more fun and creative ideas with this months Paper Pumpkin Kit visit my friends below:
