November Paper Pumpkin Christmas

I finally got the chance to play with my Paper Pumpkin kit for November.  It's such a cute kit!  The cards are pretty small and I don't generally do cards smaller than A2 size--occasionally note cards but these are even smaller.  As a result, I made one card as instructed and then attached it it to a layer of Pool Party atop a piece of Dapper Denim cardstock cut to 5.5 x 4.25.  

                      

So this little card on top opens for the sentiment and greetings.  I added some shimmer spray all over too but it doesn't show up in the photo very well.  The small cards came with envelopes so now I will have to come up with a way to use those envelopes.  I'll figure something out!  I'll be making some additional cards and making them differently.  Perhaps embossing the sentiment on the front, adding some dazzling diamonds or wink of Stella.  I've seen samples of shaker cards and ornament cards using this kit.  I will just have to experiment!  What would you do with this card?

If you are a Paper Pumpkin subscriber you can purchase past kits and refills for some of the kits.  If you would like to subscribe, you have until the 10th of the month to do so and get the December kit!  Sign up here.  Kits run approximately $20 a month plus tax (shipping is included).  The first kit includes a clear block to use with the stamps.  And Stampin' Up! releases a video every month showing the kit and how to put it together.  You can check out the videos on the Paper Pumpkin channel on YouTube.

 

Back to making some more cards!  Happy Stamping!
