The Other Half: June 2015 Paper Pumpkin

A few days ago I posted the bright, cheery, floral cards (and alternative projects) of the June 2015 Happy Thoughts Paper Pumpkin. Today I have the other half of the kit featuring greens, blues, browns and tans. The card on the right is an easel card.

Paper Pumpkin - Happy Thoughts June 2015

My Paper Pumpkin arrived and I have anxiously been waiting for time to create with it. Each month a fully designed project kit arrives from Stampin Up in an adorable box filled with stamps, ink and paper – everything cut and ready to go.

June 2015 YouTube Video from Stampin Up featuring "Happy Thoughts" Paper Pumpkin.



This month the kit included enough materials to make 8 cards and 8 lined envelopes (4 each of 2 designs) I created 2 cards of the flower design and then I have altered the additional card bases...One into a box and the other into a mug...both great ways to give a little gift with the matching card. 



The box on the left utilizes the kraft card base. This card is what I refer to as a "2-4-6-8" box. 
To create this box: 


The mug also uses the kraft card base.

Paper Pumpkin is a great way to get to craft without having to gather multiple materials. It is a planned project that allows you to follow the instructions provided in the kit or to use the kit contents in various other ways. 

Kits are $19.95 monthly (that INCLUDES shipping). You can skip or cancel at anytime. Give one a try. I have never been disappointed yet!
