This Facebook Live was recorded Tuesday, February 23, 2021 and has very little editing.

For this Facebook Live, demonstrated four different alternatives to the February, 2021, Bouquet of Hope Paper Pumpkin. I love how each of these turned out. So fun!

Bouquet of Hope PP Alt-1

This is the first card I made. As soon as I saw the stamp of the bouquet of flowers, I thought of the Jar Punch and Jar Shaker Domes and knew I had to make something with it! I used the new DSP from the Brights Collection that will be coming out in the Annual Catalog. I love, love, love this card!

Bouquet of Hope PP Alt-2

For my second card I used one of the gold trimmed vellum pieces provided in the Paper Pumpkin kit. I used Tear and Tape to go around the center of the vellum then applied Gilded Leafing. The rest is pretty self explanatory. This is such a pretty card!

Bouquet of Hope PP Alt-3

I used one of the card bases provided in the kit and cut two inches off the side. I had pre-cut Pool Party Cardstock using the Ornate Layers Die. I stamped my sentiment using Just Jade then added a bow from the Forever Greener Combo Ribbon and Trim and the Gilded Gem Embellishments. This is a beautiful card!

Bouquet of Hope PP Alt-4

This card is a continuation from the previous card. I used the 2″ piece of card front that I cut off and added it to the front of a piece of Pool Party Cardstock. I stamped little flowers from the PP stamp set using Pool Party and Just Jade. I the added the Bumblebee strip of paper and flowers from the PP set. I stamped Happy Birthday using the Happy Thoughts stamp set and tied a knot from the Just Jade Gingham that is a part of the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack. Such an adorable card!

Bouquet of Hope GoldThis is a card I made prior to my video using the gold doily and gold trimmed vellum piece. I embossed my sentiment onto one of the provided labels using gold embossing powder. I added some of the gold trim from the Forever Greenery Ribbon and Trim Combo. This may be one of my favorites! So pretty!

I really enjoy making Paper Pumpkin Alternatives! I hope you will see what you can do with them as well!
