While the June Bikes & Blooms kit is centered around the adorable bicycles, I decided to take a different approach for today's alternative card.

This time, I used just the greenery and flower box from the kit and paired them with a few products from my stash. I added a scalloped frame from the Scalloped Blooms Dies, a circle from the Spotlight on Nature Dies, and finished it off with the background and sentiment from the Lovely Arrangements Bundle. I love how the same kit pieces can create such a different look!

One of my favorite perks of being a Paper Pumpkin subscriber is having exclusive access to past kits and refill kits (while supplies last). So if you fall in love with a particular kit, you may be able to purchase refill kits to create even more projects.

The June Paper Pumpkin kit, Bikes & Blooms, is absolutely adorable and just screams summer! I love the charming die-cut bicycles with their flower-filled baskets.

For some reason, these bikes always make me think of Nantucket...even though I've never actually been there! And while I'm not much of a bicycle rider myself, this kit almost makes me want to hop on one and go for a ride.

Like most Paper Pumpkin kits, this one makes 9 cards total—three each of three cheerful designs. They're bright, fun, and perfect exactly as designed.

Be sure to stop back tomorrow when I'll share an alternative card using elements from this kit.

You've heard me say it before—Paper Pumpkin (and all of Stampin' Up!'s kits) are wonderful just the way they're designed. But every now and then it's fun to stretch your creativity and see what else you can make with the supplies inside.

For today's card, I used elements from the May Sparkling Celebrations kit and paired them with the Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder and the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and Dies. I created a colorful window box overflowing with flowers to complement the window included in the kit.

The best part? The gorgeous floral images are already printed on the washi tape! Simply die-cut them, arrange them however you'd like, and you've got beautiful embellishments in just minutes. It's an easy way to create a stunning birthday card with very little effort.

Each month I give my team a creative challenge to complete before our next meeting. This month's challenge was simple: use something you've purchased but haven't used yet. We all have those items sitting on our craft tables...right?

For me, it was the May Paper Pumpkin kit, which had been patiently waiting on my desk. I finally opened it up! This week I'll be sharing both the May and June Paper Pumpkin kits, along with an alternative card created from each one.

The timing couldn't be better because Stampin' Up! is currently offering a special promotion! Purchase a pay-as-you-go Paper Pumpkin subscription between July 11 and August 10, and you'll receive 25% off your first kit!

Today I'm featuring the May Sparkling Celebrations kit exactly as it was designed. The kit creates 9 cards total—three each of three beautiful designs that are perfect for birthdays, celebrations, congratulations, invitations, and so many other special occasions.

Be sure to come back tomorrow to see the alternative card I created using this kit and a few supplies from my craft room!

I'm bringing back the gorgeous Shimmering Striped Specialty Paper for today's card because it's simply too pretty to use just once! It creates a stunning background for a simple layout featuring layered die-cut frames, a heartfelt sentiment, and beautifully colored flowers.

It's proof that you don't need a complicated design to create a card that's elegant, eye-catching, and fun to make.

I hope this week's projects have shown that the Violet Dreams Suite Collection is much more versatile than you might expect—even if purple isn't usually your favorite color!

Earlier this week I mentioned that I'm not usually drawn to purple, so for today's card I focused on one of my new favorite colors—Hydrangea Hue.

It leans toward purple with a beautiful periwinkle look, but has just enough blue that I've completely fallen in love with it! The colored flowers, coordinating Hydrangea Hue ribbon, and adorable In Color Butterflies come together for a soft, elegant design that's perfect for so many occasions.

Today's card is another quick and easy design that doesn't sacrifice beauty. The Shimmering Striped Specialty Paper takes center stage, accented with just a few of the sweet floral die cuts from the punch-out sheet included in the suite.

Simply swap out the sentiment to fit the occasion, and you'll have a handmade card that anyone would be delighted to receive—and one you'll be proud to send.

A little torn Designer Series Paper, an embossed frame, and the gorgeous Shimmering Striped Specialty Paper create the perfect backdrop for these delicate violets colored with Stampin' Blends.

The best part? Everything on this card (other than the cardstock) comes from the Violet Dreams Suite Collection, making it easy to recreate with just one suite.

The Violet Dreams Suite Collection is one of the beautiful July Online Exclusives. If you're a purple lover, this suite is definitely for you. And even if you're not (I'm usually not!), I think you'll still fall in love with it.

For me, the Designer Series Paper is what really makes this suite shine. Today's card features one of my favorite layouts whenever I want to showcase beautiful DSP. I selected three coordinating patterns to create the striped background, then added a long banner for the sentiment and finished it off with clusters of the adorable die-cut flowers from the suite.

Sometimes all you need is gorgeous paper and a simple design!

Day four of my Kit Collection series features a kit that includes both a Stampin' Spot and a full stamp set.

With just a little stamping for the sentiments, this kit is still incredibly beginner-friendly while giving you the opportunity to try a few stamping techniques. The layered balloons create such a fun 3D effect, making these cards perfect for celebrating birthdays in style. It's a great reminder that handmade doesn't have to be complicated to make a big impression!
