YES!
It's amazing what you can dream up when you "think outside the box." This little basket is made from just the supplies that come in the June 2014 My Paper Pumpkin Kit.
Stampin' Up!'s video shows the basics of this kit.
My "bazillion ideas" video shows more things to create using the contents of the kit.
Fun, huh?! I came up with this little diddy after I had already published my video, so you won't find it in there.
Everything you need to create this basket comes in the kit. The square pinwheel paper is the base of the basket. (Just fold up each edge one inch on all four sides. The glue dots help to hold the triangular corners down. A flattened and curled straw is the handle. And two of the jumbo brads hold the handle to the basket. (You'll need a piercing tool to make the holes for the brads. A push pin will do the trick. The piercer AND the M&Ms are not included in the kit. Sorry about that.)
I think my nephew inspired me. I had brought my June kit up to the cabin for the 4th of July weekend so everyone could make a festive pinwheel. Jake did more than just a pinwheel. His mind kept coming up with new ideas. And so I played around some more as well.
