ICS Blog Hop - January 2026 - Product of the Month Showcase

 


This month, January we are showcasing the new Product of the Month products.  I am showcasing the December Product of the Month, "True Blue Florals" Designer Series Paper.


This package has 12 sheets of DSP. Two sheets of 6 different patterns!  The colours are Balmy Blue, Night of Navy and White.

I have chosen to make my card using a Balmy Blue and Night of Navy pattern.

If you love exclusive products, you’re going to love Product of the Month, a promotion centered around a special product release every month. The Product of the Month items are specially designed to be some of the best items Stampin’ Up! has to offer that aren’t available in any of our catalogues or our Online Exclusives.
 Every month we’ll release a new item that is only available for purchase once per account. These items will be limited quantity and are likely to sell out quickly—once they’re sold out, they’re gone for good! 

 
You will find a complete list of the products used for my project at the end of this post.

PPP Blog Hop - December 2025 - Watercolour In Bloom

 



Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! 

 The beauty of the Paper Pumpkin kit is that you can follow the direction provided in the kit to make the projects as they were designed, or use the supplies as a starting point and let your creativity run wild!  On this hop we will share lots of ideas with you on how to use the December Paper Pumpkin kit "Watercolour In Bloom".

These are the original projects:




This kit has supplies to make 9 cards with matching envelopes (3 of each card design).  The coordinating colours are Garden Green, Night of Navy, Pretty Peacock, Secret Sea, Shaded Spruce and Bronze (foil accents and embellishments).  The Stampin Spot is Night of Navy.  Also included are precut pieces and vellum accent pieces.

My alternate for this kit is a fancy fold card made using one of the card bases. 


This is the front of my card.
 The tag is attached on the right side to the small panel with dimensionals.  The left front of the card is tucked under the tag.


This is the card opened.
I have added a greeting and decorated with some of the card base pieces.
A supply list can be found at the end of my post.

Thank you for joining us as we share the possibilities of this great Paper Pumpkin kit, "Watercolour in Bloom".  Now hop through all the alternate projects using the list below:
