December 2020 Beary Comforting PP Kit Alternate Ideas

I’m excited to share my first set of alternate projects I created using the December 2020 Beary Comforting Paper Pumpkin monthly subscription kit! With the busy holiday season and extra deliveries needing to be made due to the pandemic, I was pleasantly surprised to get my kit on time. And I’m excited to share my first set of fun ideas with you today!

This sweet kit contained the supplies shown below to make twelve full-size greeting cards – 4 of three different kinds.

I never assemble my kits per the directions, because I like to show subscribers other ways to use those supplies. I like to think outside the box…see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages and more. So today I’m sharing with you…

• A beautiful basic box
• A Delightful Tag Topper treat box
• Two tag punch closure cards
• Two corner fold fun-fold cards
• And a festive fan

Watch my video first by clicking here to get to get measurements, directions, and tips. Or you can just click on this image below if you are already in my blog post. 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 December 31st and again on January 10th. 

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 these as intended.)

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