Cozy Christmas In the Box Alternative #3

Today, I'm sharing my final "in the box" Paper Pumpkin alternative card. I used the creamy colored card base and stamped a second generation background using the Pecan Pie ink spot and the "Deck the Halls" stamp from the kit. I also added a few of the star stamp images using first generation ink stamping.

Tip: Second generation stamping refers to inking up your stamp, stamping off on a piece of scrap paper then stamping the image on your project, getting a lighter shade of the color you are working with. 

I assembled the hanging ornament as directed in the kit's instructions, then added the Merry Christmas sentiment from the kit. I adhered it with dimensionals to the card and added a few sequins to finish off the card.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing these alternative cards created with Stampin' UP!'s Paper Pumpkin kit. Be sure to check back soon to see my "out of the box" alternative cards.  These cards use the kit and other Stampin' Up! supplies to create stepped up cards.

Of my three "in the box" alternatives, this is my favorite.  If you are interested in subscribing to Stampin' Up!'s monthly Paper Pumpkin Kit, I'd love to help you get started!
