CARDS
I really liked the designs printed on the inside of the envelopes that came in the kit. Why hide them? I took the envelopes apart and turned them into backgrounds. While I'm going outside the box, how about turning eggs into flowers? And who doesn't love google eyes?

I have printable instructions and more photos and ideas below.

December 2021 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives – Part 1

LOTS OF PUN ALTERNATIVE CARDS - PART 1 of 2

The December 2021 Lots of Puns Paper Pumpkin card kit is full of fun and witty sayings that are sure to make you smile. I wanted to go outside the "Paper Pumpkin Box" and do something completely different. I took the "egg" image from the Lots of Puns stamp set and turned it into a flower. You can improvise with another outline flower stamp set to achieve a similar look.

I have printable instructions and photos below.

This is part 1 of my 2 part series of alternate cards from the December kit. I'll be sharing part 2 tomorrow as part of our PPX blog hop.
