I have a girlfriend who loves snails, and she actually feeds them! I’ll admit, the snail in this month’s “Sending Hearts” Paper Pumpkin Kit is really cute.

If you aren’t a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, and you missed out on this month’s kit, I have good news: It coordinates with the Snail Mail Suite in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog, pages 54-55. I have the Snailed It Bundle in my Product List, so you can see the details. Maybe you’ll become a snail lover too?

Snail Mail

 

I began today’s alternative Paper Pumpkin card by using a Stitched Be Mine Die to cut the heart from a Petal Pink card base in the kit.

Next, I used an Ornate Layers Die to cut the fancy rectangle from Basic White Cardstock.  Before gluing it to the Sahara Sand card base (8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″), I embossed the rectangle with the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder. I thought I might as well feed the snail some flowers, like my friend does.

 

Now for the snail, a “Sending Hearts” stamp in the kit, was stamped in Memento Black Ink, and cut from Thick Basic White Cardstock. I used Crumb Cake and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends for coloring, and placed her on Dimensionals that come in the kit.

 

Then, I stamped “hi valentine!,” from the kit, in Memento Black Ink, and cut the words with the bubble label from the Special Day Dies Set. This caused the snail to speak, and she  requested a tiny enamel heart, from the kit, be placed on the label. 

I’ll be sending this talking snail to my friend soon, in time for Valentine’s Day!
