I subscribe two Paper Pumpkin every month.  I followed the instructions as the Paper Pumpkin design for my first box- that is my RELAX BOX.  The second box is my CREATIVE BOX.   I use the materials in the box to make the alternative projects.

When I make the alternative projects, I try to use as less as the materials outside the box as possible.  I know not every one is like me has a lot of Stampin’ Up products on hand so I want to show you the options to create the pretty projects with the supplies from the box.

I really like the Cherry Blooms card based in the kit so my alternate cards are designed around this paper.  Here is the original design from the Paper Pumpkin team.  This card is very simple.  You just tie a bow around the card and attached a tag on the card.  Because of the pretty background paper, this card looks very elegant.   There is also a scissortail metal element to add on the tag to add a little surprise to this card.  The other thing I like about the Paper Pumpkin cards are the cards always come with a matched envelope.

Here are the alternated cards:

Envelop:  I opened up the envelop and cut the front to put on the card.  The back of the envelope has stripes design.  It is very pretty too.
