January 2021 Paper Pumpkin Alternative Projects

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope all of you have a wonderful Valentine's Day and feel the love that I am sending out to all of you!

Last weekend I was at a scrapbooking retreat with my dear friend Cathy Dawe. I had so much fun and realized how much I miss scrapbooking. I am definitely going to be doing more of it in the very near future. I will be sharing with all of you what pages I create.

One of the projects I worked on was the January Paper Pumpkin kit, which had Valentine's cards as the project. You also had the option to add on little boxes to make treat holders.

Here is a picture of the 60 that I made for a nursing/rehab center residents. I ended up making 20 more for the workers at the center. They were so excited when I dropped them off yesterday.

You know me, I couldn't make the projects the way they were designed, I had to change them. I got inspiration from many places online for these projects. Some of them, I loved so much that I case'd (copy and share everything) them and some I created on my own. I had so much fun making the alternative projects below.

In this picture there are three of the cards I made and a treat bag. The treat bag was made using one of the card bases. I saw it online and knew I had to try it. I couldn't believe how easy it was.

In this picture I made 4 cards. one of them being a double Z fold.

I am really excited for this kit. You will get 4 FREE stencils and a sponge. My creative juices are already flowing with ideas. I might have to order two of these kits. I wanted to let you know that there is a possibility of these selling out before the 10th of March (last day to subscribe). If you are interested in this kit, I highly recommend you to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin now. Here is the link
