Gift galore November 2021 Paper Pumpkin

This is an alternative to my November 2021 kit. This kit was to make treat boxes and bags which is useless for me. I really don’t know why companies make holiday kits to send when not everyone celebrates ALL holidays and yes, I do celebrate Christmas and it’s my favorite holiday but I hate that companies assume we want a holiday kit when we have a subscription. Stampin Up do have a bit of time to pass but if you don’t check emails to see the hint of what is coming as it's a surprise, you’re out of luck would be a lot easier if they didn’t send any holiday type kit.

The printed elements were too big for A2 card size but perfect for slimline cards. My size for slimline cards for the most part are 3.5” x 8.5” as I use #10 envelopes as there is plenty of room for embellishments if I want to.

Cut the card base of Recollections 110 lb. white cardstock, layer of old olive cardstock, and top layer of Accent Opaque Digital International Paper 80 lb. cover smooth white cardstock giving a 1/16” border all around between all layers.

Cut the printed treat box tree topper so it wasn’t completely covering the front added a trunk with scraps of brown cardstock mounted all to layers then added a message from pining for plaid paper pumpkin stamp set October 2017 with classic stampin spot old olive ink. 


The leftover piece mounted it on the inside so it wouldn't go to waste.


For this one, the layer of color cardstock was pool party then cut the printed treat box stacked gifts topper so it wasn’t completely just like before so they didn't cover the front mounted all then added a message from to you and yours paper pumpkin stamp set November 2018 with classic stampin spot pool party ink twice as this ink spot  didn't seem dark enough.




again the piece that cut of the front mounted on the inside so it wouldn't go to waste
