Paper Pumpkin is Stampin' Up's monthly subscription box. August’s “Sweet Sunflowers” kit included components for 9 cards—3 each of 3 different designs—along with matching envelopes. Kits always include an exclusive stamp set, a mini ink cube, embellishments, and adhesives. In August, we got a bonus 2nd ink pad and some honeycomb gold foil sheets too!
The intended projects are always fun, but I love to find different ways to use the kits and show their versatility.
I focused on the stamp set to create a pop-up card. I did use half a cardbase for a layer and to provide color for the leaves, but this can be easily substituted so that you can make this card even when you run out of pre-printed supplies from the kit.
Here's the tutorial if you'd like to make one:
Measurements:
-Basic White Thick cardstock
8-1/2” (W) x 5-1/2” (H), scored at 4-1/4” along the long side
-Kit cardbase
4” (W) x 5-1/4” (H)
-Basic White cardstock
3-3/4” (W) x 5” (H)
scrap to fit TWO sunflower images (or use die cut from kit)
September 10th is the last day to sign up for next month’s kit, called Spooky Treats. This kit will make 18 treat boxes, 2-1/2" x 3" x 1", 6 each of 3 designs. We'll get an Orchid Oasis mini ink cube, which is one of the new In Colors! If you‘re in the U.S. and would like to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin with me, I’ll send you a handmade thank you card, and I’ll be sure to let you know when I post new ideas!
