Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Haunts and Harvest

 

Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop where we explore all sorts of possibilities for alternate designs with our monthly craft kit. 

The design for the kit is adorable treat boxes that can be apples, pumpkins... so cute!

 

My alternate design for this Haunts & Harvest Paper Pumpkin kit is a window or door wreath. I fiddled with all sorts of ideas of how to make a gathered "something" using three treat boxes.

And here is the other side:

I trimmed and rounded the ends so that they are all similar.

I adhered every other tab to the adjoining side and folded them together. 

Then you can flatten it and use a crop-a-dile to hole punch 1/2" down from the flat edge.

I threaded white baker's twine through the hole punches and then flatten it into the wreath shape.  Tie a knot to hold the centers tight together.

I stamped a sentiment on the tags from the kit.  The die cut circle is Soft Succulent card stock adhered onto the wreath front. I decorated the front and back to match.  I might hang it in my window so that I can admire both sides. 

I hope that you like my idea for an alternate project using the Haunts & Harvest Paper Pumpkin September 2021 kit.

Here is the unboxing video that shows how to assemble the kit projects as planned.

Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Hope Box

Welcome to the monthly Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop. Each month our team explores the crafting kit from Paper Pumpkin to determine all the possibilities for alternate designs.  Here is the kit unboxing video to show the intended designs:

This is one of the card designs as instructed by the box instructions.

This is how the die cut arrives and you need to punch it out to use it.

I love all the color on the negative sheet so I had to use it!  I trimmed it down to fit the card base.  I also added some of the ribbon from the suggested box decor.

And placed it on the card base in place of the intended colorful die cut.  This kit included 3 languages for the printed sentiment labels. I used the German and French sentiment labels to create a framed shadow effect.

Here is the next card assembled as instructed.  I love the bright, tie-die look on the banner strips.

One my first alternate design I cut each banner in half and then created a pinwheel pattern behind the sentiment.  I also added some of the ribbon from the suggested box decor.

The negative sheet from all of those banner pieces caught my eye again: don't toss the negative pieces! By cutting the banners pieces in half lengthwise I created frame pieces for the tops and sides but I let the bottom white space show.  I suppose I could have fussy cut that side, what do you think?

As you can tell I was immensely inspired by this kit and the many beautiful elements that were included for the 9 cards in Paper Pumpkin's August Hope Box.
