It’s “Paper Pumpkin” time – I have been waiting for this all month.
The name of this month’s kit is Bikes & Blooms. This kit doesn’t disappoint.The kit includes vintage-style bikes, plant-filled baskets, and fluttering butterflies in soft pastels so I can keep creating feel-good cards that look like a gentle breeze on paper.
The kit is all inclusive –
- 9 printed card bases:
- 3 each of 3 designs- Folded card size: 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ (14 x 10.8 cm)
- 9 printed envelopes
- Precut paper pieces
- Small and large silver butterflies
- Linen thread
- Stampin’ Dimensionals
- Mini Glue Dots
- Adhesive
- A photopolymer stamp set
- A ink spot in the color of Calypso Coral
The kit is all inclusive but I can’t help using the supplies in the kit and adding some of my supplies from my craft room.
I used from the kit:
- One of the vintage bikes with the large basket in front of the handle bars.
- A 4” x 5-¼” piece of one of the yellow card bases.
- Some of the twine from the kit.
From my craft space I used:
- Some small flowers from my stash
- A Basic White card base that measures 8-½” x 5-½” scored at 4-¼”
- Some small Garden Green leaves from my stash.
- Some adhesive dots from my stash.
- I used my own dimensionals.
- I use Multipurpose Liquid Glue instead of the glue dots provided in the kit.
- I used a medium white envelope from my inventory.
