The June 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit titled Box of Sunshine is amazing! The design of this kit was inspired by Sara Douglass, the CEO of Stampin’ Up!® and is all about “sharing sunshine” with others.

This fantastic, all-inclusive, monthly subscription kit contained the supplies shown below to make 8 full-size cards (5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″) and a sheet of stickers for decorating and gifting the box.

Once you’ve made all the cards, fill the box with yellow goodies and gift it so someone to brighten their life with a little sunshine!

I like to think outside the box…see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages and more. So I added the extra supplies in the product list at the bottom of this post to the above kit contents and created my alternate projects that I’m sharing with you today:

• Three Magnetic Bookmarks
• A Vertical Center Step Card
• A 12×12 Scrapbook Page Layout
• And Three Gift Boxes (one made from a card base)

Scroll down to see close-up photos, access the links that I mentioned in my video, and see a list of extra supplies (linked to my online store) that I used to make my creations. Then be sure to visit my blog again soon, because I have many more alternate projects that I’ll be sharing on June 25th.

Here are the cards the kit instructs how to make. (Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video to help you assemble the cards as intended.)

And here are close-up photos of the alternate projects I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch the video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
