Paper Pumpkin Possibilities: Delicate Wings

 

Hello Crafty Friends!! It is time once again for the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! This is where we show you some alternate uses for your Paper Pumpkin kits. Now, we love Paper Pumpkin, and are happy with the projects as designed, but sometimes we like to challenge ourselves and make some other things up with them.

I didn't do it this time, but these would make some very cute boxes!! I might have to do that with some of the remaining kit contents. But for now, here is my card:

I normally like to use the stamps when I am creating my alternates, and I did use stamps on the front, the splatter and the words, and on the inside.

Here is my inside:

 I also used some of the extra kit contents, and cut up one of the card bases. One of the things I like about Paper Pumpkin is, they normally have the same print on the front and back of the card bases. I can use the front and still cut the back down for a card layer, and make the card as originally planned just by adding a card base. 

Hope you like the card. Please hop along and check out the rest of the alternate projects. Leave a comment when you see something you like.

Until next time...

Happy Craftin'!

PPP Blog Hop: Hope Box

 

Welcome to the monthly Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop. We love Paper Pumpkin and love to share our enthusiasm for this monthly box of fun and creativity with you. The Paper Pumpkin kit is designed so you can follow the instructions provided in the kit to make the projects, or use the supplies as a starting point to let your creativity run wild (as we have!) 

This month's kit, The Hope Box was made from the heart of Stampin’ Up! cofounder, Shelli. She wanted to create a kit full of hope, comfort, and connection. Whether you make the Hope Box for your own treasure of self-inspiration, or you want to share and empower someone you know, create the Hope Box by decorating the box and filling it with treats and trinkets that embody what hope means to you. 

Let her show you how she assembled the cards and the box. Watch this short video:

Here are the kit cards as designed: 

            

This month, I really wanted to focus on all the stamps that are made available to us in the kit. So with a few ink colors (taken from the kit color, some embossing powder and a heat tool, along with some blending brushes, here is my take on this month's kit:

Everything from the kit, except the card base and the scrap of Basic White for the butterfly. 

Glad you could join us, and hope you have been inspired to get your kit out and create. Next hop on over to Joni's blog and see what she created to share with us from the Hope Box!

September's kit includes enough supplies to create 12 treat boxes — 4 each of 3 designs. That means you can take your pick of apple, pumpkins, or jack-o-lantern treat boxes! Plus, the Paper Pumpkin box is designed to easily transform into a vintage wheelbarrow for you to display your harvest, which I cannot personally wait to experience!

Whether you’re thinking about crisp red apples or you’re ready to carve some spooky jack-o-lanterns (or both!), the Haunts & Harvest Paper Pumpkin Kit — designed in a vivid fall palette — is a hands-on crafting experience for all autumn lovers! Don't miss out!
