Hugs from Shelli - May 2019 Paper Pumpkin

I have many, many Paper Pumpkin kits to complete.  I love getting them each month and then I just don't make it a priority to get them finished.  So here I am, with May's kit called Hugs from Shelli.  It makes 12 beautiful note sized cards complete with co-ordinating envelopes (not shown).

However, it became known that the envelopes were a "titch" too small for the notecards and they would not easily go into the envelopes.  Knowing this, I trimmed slivers from each card so I would not have this problem.  As it happens, I missed a few, so ended up cutting them and mounting them to regular A2 card bases for a simple fix.  I call these "happy mistakes" because it usually makes for a nice alternative.


This notecard made it onto a Crumb Cake card base.  

Here I layered it onto a Blushing Bride card base and added a strip of Mossy Meadow to the left side of the card.

'I choseVery Vanilla card stock and centred the card front onto a piece of Mossy Meadow.  I love the bird trinkets they provided for this card.

The notecards below are done as per kit instructions.





So, that's another kit completed!  If you'd like to learn more about Stampin' Up!'s card making and project subscription, please let me know!  I'd be happy to fill you in on the deets!

Each month is a surprise but they do give little hints each month.  November's will be tags that will co-ordinate with October's kit.
