It’s time for the 06-2020 APPT Blog Hop! This month’s kit is called Box of Sunshine, and it’s all about sending some sunshine to those who need it. Even the box is yellow, and there’s a label in the kit that covers the Paper Pumpkin logo, so you can mail some sunshiney goodies in it. For my alternate projects today, I used the kit to make a Scrappy Strip card and a treat box.

Today’s card doesn’t use the PPPST! Can you believe it? Instead I’m using another popular technique. This is my first try at the Scrappy Strip Technique. I used the Ornate Thanks and Ornate Style stamp sets. I colored in the image using Stampin’ Blends Markers, then cut it into strips. And I cut the sentiment using the Classic Label Punch.
PPPST = Paper Piecing Press n Seal Technique

Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
- Gorgeous Grape card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
- Basic Black CS layer cut to 4-3/4″ x 3-7/8″
- Whisper White CS layer cut to 4-1/4″ x 3-3/4″ (*after floral image was stamped, I cut the layer into strips as shown)
- Basic Black CS cut to 2-1/2″ x 7/16″
- Whisper White CS cut to 5-1/4″ x 4″ for the inside of the card base
Stamped with the Ornate Style stamp set:
- floral image in tuxedo Black Memento ink onto the Whisper White CS layer*
Stamped with the Ornate Thanks stamp set:
- front sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink onto a scrap of Whisper White CS
- inner sentiment in Seaside Spray ink onto the Whisper White CS for the inside of the card base
Cut using the Classic Label Punch:
Cut using Paper Snips:
- both ends of the Basic Black CS strip, to mat the front sentiment
Colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers:
- floral image in Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Highland Heather, Mango Melody, Old Olive, Seaside Spray, and So Saffron
- Note: I used different colors in each strip.
Assembled the card:
- burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
- colored strips glued onto the Basic Black CS layer, about 1/16″ apart
- Basic Black CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
- front sentiment glued onto the Basic Black CS strip
- blue twine pulled out of a piece of blue/white/silver twine, then tied around the sentiment and tied in a bow
- front sentiment glued onto the strips
- Whisper White CS glued onto the inside of the card base

Here’s what I would do differently:
I’m not sure why I thought I needed to cut all the strips into triangles with sharp points. When I look at other Scrappy Strip cards I’ve seen lately, I realize their strips have four edges instead of 3. I think that would make it much easier to line up the pieces.

Today I’m sharing a card I used with some of the leftovers from yesterdays card, which you can see here. It’s another PPPST card made with the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle (Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and Sunflowers Dies.) I cut today’s sentiment using the Everyday Label Punch, and colored some Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon with a Stampin’ Blends Marker.
