But how to wrap it?
It just happened that my 2 1/2 year old son knocked over a stack of supplies at that moment and my envelope punch board was among them. So I cut a piece of Candy Cane DSP to 10 1/4 x 10 1/4 and made an envelope for a 6 x 7 card. I then slid the framelits into it and created a belly band to hold the flap closed.
The front was decorated by cutting out a candy house from the scraps of leftover paper and mounting it on two squares cut using the Framelits that I was giving her. I put a little Wink of Stella on the snow for bling.
Inside I cut a 6 x 7 piece of Whisper White cardstock that I wrote a note on and decorated with another stitched square and cut house. A unique and relatively quick package that looked much more intricate than it was! Plus it showed her a sample of what was inside so hopefully she immediately wants to use it with her projects!

WHAT IS PAPER PUMPKIN?
While we have many great products on closeout, there is one program that you really should check out as well. I only sell things I'm passionate about and this product line is definitely one of my favorites!
Paper Pumpkin is creativity in a box. It costs $19.95 plus tax and ships to your mailbox once a month. It contains everything you need for your own creative escape. Besides the instructions and pieces for the cards or project, it also contains ink and photopolymer stamps and usually the adhesive you need as well. My subscribers will also get a project sheet with tips and additional ideas and instructions that they can make with the supplies in the kits and sometimes some supplemental supplies. They also are invited to participate in a free Paper Pumpkin Playdate to make their kits using any of my additional supplies like framelits and punches! It's a wonderful program and I'd love for you to try it out! Sign up by the 10th of the month to get that month's kit!
