These are my September Paper Pumpkin alternative cards. This time, the alternatives that are suggested with the kit are great. There are lots of alternatives from which to choose. I made a total of 6 cards this time and had great fun with the kit.
Remember to sign up in time for the October kit, called ‘Joy to the World’, a Holiday kit. Stampin’ Up! has always published outstanding Holiday Paper Pumpkin Kits.
In addition to the Kit Supplied I used the following:
A Variety of coordinating Cardstock
Basic Black, Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Bumblebee, and Pumpkin Pie
The Inks I used were
Momento Tuxedo Black, Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie
In addition I used our Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels and Pearls
More embossing on Foil Paper, I seem to be addicted. Those trees are just so beautiful. I think this card could easily transition to a birthday card as well. The design is very simple and an easy card to make. I hope you give it a try.
Measurements for today’s Card:
I used a Real Red card base 8 ½” by 5 ½” scored and folded at 4 ¼”
Then 2 pieces of Pretty Peacock 4” by 5 ¼”
Next a 4 1/8″ by 4 1/8″ piece of Brass Foil
and finally a Piece of Whisper White Cardstock 3 ¾” by 5” for the inside
I love this card, and used it for my son’s Birthday this month. This was the perfect excuse to use those corner pieces and slides, and I really like the way this one turned out. I appear to be a little obsessed with the use of embossing folders on foil, LOL.
Measurements for todays card:
I used a Pretty Peacock card base 8 ½” by 5 ½”, which is scored and folded at 41/4″
Then I used 2 pieces of Early Espresso 4” by 5 ¼”, one for the front of the card and one for the inside
I used a scrap of Champaign Foil for my focal point on the front of the card
Next an envelope from Gold Cards and Envelopes set cut to 3 3/4″ by 5″
and finally a Piece of Very Vanilla 3 ¾” by 5” for the inside
