Here are some more of the cards I made last year.  These are alternative cards made with the October 2019 "Winter Woods" Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin' Up!.  Some of the cards contain images and DSP  or Cardstock that were not part of the kit contents.

It's almost time for me to start working on 2021 Christmas Cards so before I begin I figured I should get around to posting some of the cards I made last year.  These cards were made with the November 2019 Paper Pumpkin Kit "Winter Gifts" from Stampin' Up!.  This kit was designed to make holiday gift tags but instead these are alternative cards that I made with the kit.  Some of the cards contain images, Cardstock or DSP, etc. that were not part of the kit contents.

 

All of these alternative cards were made with the February 2020 "Lovely Day" Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin' Up!.
