A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop: Hearts for You

Hello stampin' friends and welcome to our latest A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop! This month we are sharing alternative projects created with the Hearts for You Paper Pumpkin from January 2025. I was thrilled with the versatility of the all the pieces found in this kit--it is jam packed!

Those of us who are part of the A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop love to rearrange, retool, and reimagine the kit contents into our own custom creations. This month my favorite piece in the kit were the rows of white hearts. I REALLY loved stamping them in colorful pink tones and even using the leftover scrap as a stencil.

This is the card where I used the remnant of the rows of hearts as a stencil. Before I used the stencil I added Liquid Multi-purpose Glue to the back side. I let it dry thoroughly so the glue would work as a temporary adhesive. I used a Blending Brush to swirl Bubble Bath in-between all the rows of hearts. The temporary glue worked like a charm to hold the stencil perfectly in place and easily could be removed.

I also used the small flower and leaves from the Heart Shaped Dies to add a few finishing touches. I love the heart shaped shimmer gems in the center of the flowers. Those gems were part of the Hearts for You Kit. I'm telling you this Kit was filled with awesomeness.

So, check these die cut rows of hearts. They came all white in the Kit and there were tons of them. To colorize them with hues of pink I used the heart stamp that was part of the Kit. It was the perfect size!

This funky retro style card includes a Window Sheet heart. This heart is not part of the kit. I used the Spring is in the Air Dies to cut the Window Sheet and then added the foil "Love" which was from the Kit. I love the addition of the clear heart as it adds a bit of sheen but you can still see all the stylin' hearts
