Okay, I came up with MORE alternate project ideas using the December 2018 Day by Day Paper Pumpkin kit!!! Hahaha! And I decided the best way to show them to you was in a video. So I demonstrated them in a live broadcast yesterday on Facebook.
I uploaded the recorded version of this video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). I hope you enjoy these ideas!
Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), check out the measurements and full products list below, scroll through the close-up photos of the projects I presented that day, and then let me know if you have any questions.
Here are close-up photos and the measurements you’ll need if you plan to recreate any of these projects.
THE FESTIVE CARD

(Cut the sticker sheet from the kit down to 4-7/8″ tall.)

(Cut the calendar from kit to 4″ tall. Then cut what is left over to just under 3″ wide.)
THE BOX
I didn’t demonstrate this one in the video, but hopefully these written measurements and directions will help.
Measurements for box…
- Basic Black Cardstock
- 5-1/2” x 3-3/8″ (outer lid)
- 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ (inner lid)
- 5-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ (inside box base)
- Ribbon from kit
- 22″
Directions…
- Open up box base. Put Tear & Tape Adhesive where shown.
- The longest flap (the one that covered the bottom of the box) will become the cover. Mark using a pencil and ruler just beyond 4-1/2″ from the second score line. Then use Trimmer to score along that mark AND to trim off the tiny tabs.
- Assemble box again without putting the longest flap back in.
- Attach the Basic Black Cardstock pieces using Tear & Tape Adhesive.
- Then to reinforce the lid even more and keep it from bending at that third score line, add Tear & Tape to the back of the coordinating “calendar topper” cardboard piece from the kit.
- Wrap the ribbon around the box lid, bring the ends through the holes of this cardboard piece, and tighten the ribbon as you center & secure the piece in place.
- Tie a bow in the ribbon, and trim the ends.
- Fold the cover at the score line you created and add velcro dots to hold it shut.
