Well...another kit is now in the books. I have completed my July Paper Pumpkin kit, Sweeter With You, and it was a great one! Here are the last three cards I made with scraps from the kit. I added a few extra supplies from my stash to complete them. 


For the first card, I used the retired Picture This die set and a white quarter sheet of card stock to create my cover plate. I used a scrap of paper from the edge of the blue/white striped rectangle piece to stamp the "Love You Lots" sentiment and flagged one end of it.  I also used a Garden Green Stampin' Write marker to add dots and lines around the edge of the white card stock.

The second card is a joy fold card. It opens from the left, then from the right. I used a piece of the envelope flap for the plaid border on the smaller card and ink blended Strawberry Slush ink around the right side of the card.  I also cut the "Hello, Friend" stamp into two pieces and only used the Friend part of it on the card.

The final card is a 4.25" x 4.25 square card.  The four blocks are 2" square pieces from scraps I had left over in the kit.  The small hearts are a retired embellishment.

Tip: Postage is more expensive for mailing square cards. I send my square cards in regular envelopes so I don't have to pay the extra postage for them.

I don't believe I've ever finished a kit so quickly.  This one was a lot of fun, but it is going to be a long wait until the next one arrives! :)
