August 2020 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives

Well, this paper pumpkin kit was a true challenge for me.  The theme of this kit didn’t appeal to me at all, so I ignored the theme and made very different cards.  I hope you like these alternatives.

I made Birthday Cards, a Friend Card, even a Christmas Card.  In the end it was a fun kit to think through. I love a challenge

In addition to the Kit materials I used a few Whisper White Card Bases, 8 1/2″ by 5 1/2″ Scored and folded at 4 1/4″.
