Inspiration
Welcome to the Inspiration Archives at Twelve Tuesdays Ink!
Are you stuck, in a rut, and in need of some paper crafting project ideas to get you going? Check out the projects here. Or, maybe you are new to paper crafting, and just browsing. That’s okay, too and I hope that what you see inspires you. Whatever your reason, I’m happy for your visit.
Whether you are a beginning stamper, a casual or an avid crafter, everyone is creative and able to express themselves artistically. You simply create and nothing more, nothing less, and that’s the reason why I’d like to share it with you. So please feel free to browse around, maybe learn a thing or two, and start your arts and crafts lifestyle.
As you look, you’ll find some project ideas take no time at all to create and need as little as paper, stamps, and ink. Other projects may require a few more supplies and a little more time. I love the fact that I can complete most paper crafting projects in one sitting, and I find great satisfaction in this. Stamping Up! has some wonderful products to make paper crafting easy. Which is another reason I love this hobby!

May’s Paper Pumpkin kit was called Celebrating In Colors. All five of the 2022 – 2024 In Colors made their appearance in this box. I think this was the first kit that I didn’t assemble at least one set of cards as the instructions directed. Also, I shared the kit with my mom and she […]

“Beautiful things take time.” And often, change needs to happen to make improvements. It’s part of life. After making the cards from the April 2022 Paper Pumpkin Kit, Change is Beautiful, I made three cards that use just the stamps and a few leftover die cut paper pieces. And as I created, I also ended

Hello! This month, I’ve made three cards that only use the stamps from the March 2022 Paper Pumpkin Kit, Beyond the Horizons. The stamps with this kit are amazing! I was fascinated by the chevron design, and determined to see how I might use it. I also had a scrap of Beauty of the Earth

Many stampers have been having fun with the Awesome Otters stamp set, and boy, do those otters like to swim! But, I didn’t want to make a card with otters swimming. Recently, I got the What’s Cooking bundle and haven’t had a chance to play with it yet. So, I planned a card to use

The January 2022 Paper Pumpkin kit was full of plenty of hugs & kisses with love! This kit offered 10 fun-folded shape cards with matching envelopes. The coordinating stamp set allows us (subscribers) to use the cards for many different occasions. And because I wasn’t thinking I’d always need a fun-fold shape card, I altered

What a fun Paper Pumpkin kit for December 2021 we had! I was so “egg-cited” to use the stamps and extra cutout pieces to make some alternative “lots of pun” fun cards. Each of the cards was created with a specific recipient in mind. “Egg-cellent” Pun Fun My husband can remember and retell jokes like

A peaceful Christmas season is always nice! I really appreciate being able to enjoy remembering what the Christmas season is all about and spending time with family. For us who live in Wisconsin, the 2021 October Paper Pumpkin kit really reminds me of the beautiful undisturbed trees that I see after a snowfall. I wanted

For our October stamp club, I decided to make a card project that featured the beauty of Fall. Another demonstrator in our group had the same idea, too! Both of us chose a few items from the Blackberry Beauty and the Beauty of the Earth suites. Beauty of Tomorrow My Beauty of Tomorrow cards use

September’s Paper Pumpkin kit is full of 3D projects: a wheelbarrow and 12 treat holders. But, I don’t need 12 treat holders, so the treat holders and wheelbarrow will probably just be fall table decorations. I really like the stamp set that’s included and have some cards with the fall time haunts & harvest ideas
