Simply Snowflakes Paper Pumpkin

The November Paper Pumpkin kit makes 8 fabulous Christmas Cards and 12 Gift Tags. I love the projects just as they are, but decided to stretch the number of cards you can make. If you don't need cards then check out the Decorative Banner I made from the supplies.

Make twice as many cards!

Cut the die-cut flaps from the cards in the kit. Stamp and mount each flap on a Lost Lagoon card base.

The sentiment is from one of the gift tags!
Use the next 2 designs to make 4 times the number of cards in the kit!

I added Frosted Sequins embellishments. (135835)
This card uses just the white die-cut snow flake on a Soft Sky card base with a Lost Lagoon mat.

I added the Silver ribbon. (132137)
If you use the flaps from the cards in the kit, you will have 8 plain mats left over.

Emboss them with the Northern Flurry folder (120902) in your Big Shot (113439) and sand the blue layer to reveal the white core.

Eight more cards!

I added extra rhinestones. (119246)
If you don't need lots of cards, make a banner from Lost Lagoon pennants with the die-cut card flaps.

For the white snowflakes flip the Lost Lagoon die-cut snowflakes over.

I used my 2 in. Circle punch (133782) and discontinued Alphabet dies for the letters.
