Paper Pumpkin Alternatives - August 2023

Meaningful Flowers is our August 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit.  It arrived with supplies to make 8 cards, 4 each of 2 designs, plus two stamp sets, a Pretty Peacock ink spot, and some versatile embellishments.  To see the unboxing of this kit from Stampin' Up!, click the video below.

As always, I came up with some of my own alternatives for this kit.  I cut up the envelopes and use the stamps in different ways.  Basically I played with what was sent to us and what I'd bought before.  Subscribers with me will receive a tips and tricks sheet including step by step instructions of all the projects below.

This side flap turned into gift card holder is one I've done before but I was inspired this week by fellow demonstrator Erica Cerwin who did an awesome science card using this same fold on her Facebook Live!

This card was inspired by a sample I saw from Laura Seki on the Paper Pumpkin Fan Club page on Facebook.  I have never made one of these but I tried to replicate her awesome creation as best as I could.

You have until the 10th of the month to sign up for Paper Pumpkin.  If you are looking for something fun for the fall, look no further than our upcoming kit, With Love & Gratitude.  See more about this kit and how to sign up on my PROMOTIONS page!

Have a craftastic day,
