Today I’m sharing four alternative ideas using the lovely Paper Pumpkin kit, Notes From the Heart
The December 2024 Notes From The Heart Paper Pumpkin kit was a lovely kit. The cards were great. But if you like to make your kits go even further, you can make these alternatives – almost doubling the number of cards you get from one kit.
DOstamping Tips:
- One of the tricks to making the cards to further is to cut the white scalloped folded card base in half and adhere it to a 1/4 sheet of cardstock (this is called a panel card).
- The other trick is to selectively fussy cut the floral dies cuts into two pieces.
- For the card above, I used a 2″ x 4″ piece of Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper to add visual interest.
- For the card below, I also trimmed down a fern die cut and added some Gold Twisted Thread (love this stuff!).
- For these two cards, I used Mossy Meadow 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ folded cardstock for the card bases.
- The both feature the leftover fussy cut from the floral die and also the white envelope kit sticker.
- For the card above, I used a 1″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and 3″ x 4-1/4″ Pretty in Pink to matte the sticker.
- For the card below, I used a 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4 of Blackberry Bliss cardstock to matte the sticker.
- Both are feature a Gold Twisted Thread bow.
