Layered Leaves Part 2

Hello stampers!

Last week I shared the latest Paper Pumpkin kit, Layered Leaves.  Today I'm sharing how I am using this kit.  I have only a few items left over for alternative projects this month because every bit of the kit is used according to the directions from Stampin' Up!

As a reminder, this kit contains the supplies for (8) 3 x 3 cards with envelopes and (8) pillow boxes.

Since fall vendor and craft show season is really kicking into high gear, I am using the contents of this kit for my first couple events.

The 3 x 3 note cards were packaged in 2 groups of 4 and tucked into one of the adorable mini pizza boxes  (#144645).  I decorated the box by first brayering on some Cajun Craze ink to match the color scheme of this month's kit, and then I added one of my extra leaf tags.  

The pillow boxes are packaging for the purse size hand sanitizers.  They are perfect for this!  (I added a little sticky note to the back of each box to identify what scent is in each box). 

There you have it!  

Are you ready to give Paper Pumpkin a try for yourself?  Click here to get started!  Remember, there are 2 types of subscriptions:  month to month, or a 1,3,6, or 12 month prepaid subscription.  The choice is yours!
