Thinking of You Paper Pumpkin

Good morning friends! Today, I'm sharing another Paper Pumpkin Alternative from the March 2022 kit (while I await the April kit). I can always use "Thinking of You" cards. They're perfect for all sorts of reasons and occasions. 

I cut apart an envelope and a card for this one.  Because the white cards in the kits aren't exactly the same white as our Basic White, I used the front side of a card for a card layer and the back side for stamping and cutting elements.  And while I "MOSTLY" use things from the kit for my alternative projects, in this case I brought in a piece of BumbleBee Cardstock and BumbleBee ink. I also decided to use a piece of White Crinkle Seam Binding Ribbon. This is a terrific ribbon to "soften" the look of a project. 

Here, you can see that, before I attached the speckled envelope piece for the background, I die cut the 2nd largest Scalloped Contour from the center.  This is my FAVORITE way to extend my supplies in a kit!  Now, I'll have a fabulous background for this card AND a fun layer for another project later!

I love the Paper Pumpkin kits each month.  The projects are always fresh and new. But I truly enjoy creating fun alternative projects from them as well.  It allows me the creative freedom of stepping outside the box when I choose to.  When I'm creating something totally new with the kit contents, I feel like I get the best of both worlds! The Paper Pumpkin kits really are for all levels of crafter!
