It’s the middle of summer, and time for some July Paper Pumpkin Alternatives. The alternatives for this kit are pretty easy, so I hope you enjoy them.
The cards from this month’s kit are really nice and I hated to cut them up. So, to keep in line with the kit, I stuck with the same color palette.
The first alternative
The first alternative uses one of my favorite techniques, repetitive stamping. The background repeats the same stamps over the entire thing.
The Majestic Mountain dies also came in handy to add some depth to the card.
The second alternative
The second alternative is a rather simple one. The background image does all the work for you.
Punch a couple of labels and twirl some twine and your card is complete.
The last alternative
The last alternative utilizes the envelope for a background.
When you add some twine and a little Wink of Stella to your butterflies, the card comes to life.
I would love to hear from you. Please let me know what you think of my July 2021 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives.
