June 2024 Paper Pumpkin Alternate Card Idea 1 - Cute Card with Coloring Techniques to make it POP!

Hi Everyone and welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Over the next couple days, I am going to share with you 7 card ideas you can make with one set of supplies from the June 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Life Is Sweet.



The projects from this kit are beautiful with Glimmer Sentiments, Soft Pastel Colors, and Watercolor Fruit Die Cuts. The kit creates a total of 9 greeting cards 3 in three different designs. If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and create these cards click on the playlist below.

Today I am sharing with you my first alternative card. This card uses fun coloring techniques to help the elements pop. Plus it is quick, easy, and super cute.

Each month I take the contents from the paper pumpkin kits and make alternative projects. My cards are easy to follow and can be made by both experienced or new paper crafter. You may need just a couple other products to complete them. You can follow along with me using supplies you already have or purchase any products you see me use from my online store. A full supply list is below or on my blog – www.creativechelsey.com

Poppy Parade Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Pool Party Cardstock – scrap for die cut label

Poppy Parade Ink Pad

Poppy Parade Marker - Brights Stampin' Write Markers Pack

Blending Brushes

Thanks & Beyond Dies

Pretty In Pink Cardbase – kit

Large Dark Green Fern Die Cut – kit

Large Peach (leaf on the right) – kit

Large Cherries – kit

3 Vanilla Pearls


1- Cut the Pink Cardbase from the kit in half at 4 ¼”. Then trim off the white edge around the pink pattern. It doesn’t have to exact.

2- From the back white piece trim a 3/8” strip from the bottom. Final size 3/8” x 4 ¼”.

3- Blend with a Blending Brush and Poppy Parade ink around the edge of the Pink Pattern. Leave the center untouched. Then add splatter with the Poppy Parade Marker. You can use any red color you have for the blending & splatters. Add to the center of the Poppy Parade Cardbase.


4- Blend Shy Shamrock ink over the stems of the Cherry Dies only with a Blending Brush. This will darken the stems giving more contrast between the Pool Party Label and Stem. Don’t blend it too dark, you still want to see the watercolor variation.


5- Cut out the Label Die (Thanks & Beyond Dies) from Pool Party Cardstock.

6- Add the Cherries first near the bottom right corner with dimensionals only under the fruit.

7- Then add the Large Peach with a glue dot under the stems of the Cherries. Leave a space on the left for the greeting.


8- Cut out three small ferns from the Large Dark Green Fern Die Cut in the kit. You can watch the video if you want to cut the exact three as I do. (5:00)


9- Tuck the leaves around the fruit with glue dots.


10- Stamp your greeting on the 3/8” strip in Shy Shamrock. Separate each word. You may need to stamp the center word again to give equal space to all the words. See video for explanation. Add in the open area on the left with dimensionals.’


11- Add everything to the cardbase with dimensionals. Add three Vanilla Pearls.

 





I have also created a video walking you through each step.
