A Paper Pumpkin Thing: March 2018 Kit

Hey, hey! It's the last Thursday of the month in my neck of the woods and you know what that means, right? It means it's time to pull out your March 2018 Paper Pumpkin and have some fun creating alternate projects with this kit!

Today I am hopping with the A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop crew and I cannot wait to see what fun and creative projects the team will have to share with us.


This month's kit is a special one because this kit marks Paper Pumpkin's Fifth Anniversary!  This month the kit is vintage themed with lots of roses and a free gift of wooden embellishments. I decided to make a gift card set with my kit. I made the "box" out of Very Vanilla Thick cardstock that I splattered with Fresh Fig ink. Then I cut one of the envelopes apart and lined the left side with Gold Foil. I used the Fresh Fig ribbon from the kit as a closure for the box.

Inside of the set I've include some notecard sized envelopes on the left. On the right is a set of four cards that I put together using the supplies from the Paper Pumpkin kit. I could've decorated the inside of this set a bit more but decided to keep it simple this time.

Here's a peek at the cards I made for this set. There are two each of two designs for a total of four cards.

This card is my favorite. The rose background adds so much detail but still allows the gold glimmer paper, sentiment piece and gorgeous pearls to really stand out.

With supplies that were left in the kit I created this simple card to finish off my set.

The only thing that I added to it (not included in the PP kit) was the stitched circle in crumb cake cardstock. The "Thank You" sentiment comes from the All Things Thanks stamp set.

Here's a last look at the final product. I plan on giving it to my Mother-in-Law for Easter and I really hope she will like it.
