Many people got quite excited about the February 2019 Paper Pumpkin Kit because, for one thing, Stampin’ Up! gave us some hints and a preview, and for another, succulents seem to be a trendy thing nowadays. These are the Paper Pumpkin Grown With Kindness Cards that I made pretty much like the directions with the kit. I even stamped the envelope with an extra stamp in the set of a cup holding a succulent.
The Stampin’ Up! Paper Pumpkin design team actually went out and purchased succulents, then brought them back to the office and photographed them. This is how the photographic images on the front of the cards came about. I think it makes the cards even more interesting to know how they were created! But I always like “behind the scenes” stories!
The kit made nine cards and they were easy to assemble. I left a couple of cards without sentiments so I could add my own when I need them. Since I was on a roll, I just made all the cards as designed. Sometimes I save a few for alternative ideas I might find other people posting on the internet. But I liked these cards just fine, especially those photographic images, so I just made them as is. The choice is completely up to you when you are making your kit!
Here’s the Stampin’ Up! video of how this kit goes together.
