I had to kick it into high gear this week! My kids went back to school on Tuesday, so I finally had a quiet house and got to working on my August Paper Pumpkin kit "outside the box" creations (and video) right away.
As some of you may know, with every kit I like to think "outside the box" and come up with lots of alternate ideas so I can share with you other options for what YOU can create with the kit contents.
Today I am presenting:
- Three cards that I made using the gift products I sent to my personal Paper Pumpkin subscribers.
- A 12×12 scrapbook page spread using very little extra product (just cardstock and a couple punches)
- A scary Halloween card that makes me squeamish when I look at it
- Matching Halloween treats
- And a gift wrapping/packaging for a pack of gum
Watch the video to get tips, measurements and directions. Then scroll down to see close-up photos of these projects and a list of extra supplies I used to make them.
Here are close-up photos of the alternate projects that I created from this kit that are shown in this video.

I love making monsters with my kits, but this one honestly scares me. Where was my mind?

It was worth the wait to see the video. I learned some great ideas and the Hershey nuggets holder was pretty darn nifty. I never thought about gluing them together then using the BOO stamp from a previous kit. The card was a bit spooky and it did remind me of a bloody color but it all works!
Oh good! I’m glad. I just didn’t have the time at the end of August.
