PP Blog Hop - Cozy Christmas

 


Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! 

 The beauty of the Paper Pumpkin kit is that you can follow the direction provided in the kit to make the projects as they were designed, or use the supplies as a starting point and let your creativity run wild!  On this hop we will share lots of ideas with you on how to use the October Paper Pumpkin kit "Cozy Christmas".

These are the original projects:


This Christmas themed kit makes 9 cards with matching envelopes.  There are supplies to  make 3 of each card (3 designs). 

Contains precut pieces with soft flocking designs and shiny red sequins.
Coordinating colours are Basic Beige, Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, Pecan Pie and Real Red with a Pecan Pie coloured Ink Spot.

For my first alternate project I created a card using the Add- On dies (Abundant Joy Dies #167855).  My list of supplies (other than those that are part of the kit) will be found at the end of the post.

For my second alternate project I created a tag!
