Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop - Sentimental Rose

Welcome to our MONTHLY Pamper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop!  Thank you for stopping by and joining in on the FUN! This month's kit is Sentimental Rose and here are my alternative creations!! 

I went a little crazy with this months Paper Pumpkin kit!  It's quite BEAUTIFUL! 

First...I wanted to make monochromatic cards.  I turned the pieces in the kit with printed images on them over and stamped the flowers in Crushed Curry with Old Olive and Gray Granite inks.

 Next, I wanted to make a fun & simple treat holder.  The only candy I had left from Easter were chocolate kisses.  This holder holds three.  I used the printed piece of paper which is 2 3/4" X 5" and scored it at 1", 2 1/2" and 4". I folded it into the triangle and made the tag with the corrugate banner and little tag from the kit.  I stamped the little tag with my acrylic block with Crushed Curry ink spritzed with water.

Last....I really wanted to use the cute embellishments from the kit so I had to make one more card using an ink that matched....Flirty Flamingo of course! 

I hope you'll hop along and see all the creative ideas the rest of the gals have to share!  We'd love it if you took just a moment to comment on our ideas and let us know what you think! 

Next is the very talented Darla Roberts (YES...another Darla) at Stampin' Darla! 

ENJOY & BE INSPIRED
