PPP Blog Hop - Wrapped In Cheer

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 November Paper Pumpkin kit "Wrapped In Cheer".

These are the original projects:

This Christmas themed kit has supplies for 8 tags and boxes. (4 of each of the tags with 8 boxes). The kit contains all the precut pieces, twine, embellishments and a Mossy Meadow Stampin Spot. The coordinating colours are Basic Beige, Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow and Old Olive.

I made 2 alternates for this kit!

The first one uses the same wreath tag from the original project, but I made the box inside out with the green on the outside of the box! I love the Mossy Meadow box with the red banner on top!

My second alternate is another tag. I used the kit stamp set and Designer Series Paper, other cardstock, Cherry Cobbler ink, the Add-on Abundant Joy Dies and some retired Cherry Cobbler twine. A list of all the supplies will be listed at the end of my post.

Thank you for joining us as we share the possibilities of this great Paper Pumpkin kit, "Wrapped in Cheer". Now hop through all the alternate projects using the list below:
