The June 2021 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives with the Expressions in Color box are here. This kit is so pretty, so I found it quite easy to make some beautiful alternatives.
Although there are adequate components to this kit, I did add some extras. The extra items used can be found at the end of the post.
The first alternative
The first alternative has many layers. I love the Fresh Freesia splattered-ink card, but I had to cover it up a little. It was way too busy to add all the layers that I wanted.
The Double Oval punch and Ornate Layers dies helped create the layers.
The second alternative
The second alternative uses a little color to help get dimension.
Coloring vellum is one of my favorite techniques and really brings this flower to life.
Then last alternative
The last alternative is using the Evening Evergreen card.
It was given a little life with the help of the Sprig punch and the Hippo & friends dies.
I would love to hear from you. Please let me know what you think of my June 2021 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives.

I would like you to explain how you colour vellum .
The french grandmama
Thank you! Anytime I color vellum, I use my Stampin’ Blends. For this one, I flipped the flower over and colored it with Cajun Craze, Daffodil Delight, Evening Evergreen, Fresh Freesia, and Polished Pink. I always color the backside of vellum because it hides the mistakes you make when coloring outside of the lines and depending on the ink that you stamp your image with, the blends will make it run. Hope this helps.:-)
