September 2024 Paper Pumpkin

This past weekend, I was able to sit down and play with my September 2024 Paper Pumpkin kit.  (Learn more about the Paper Pumpkin subscription kits HERE- and the current October kit is available for 40% off to new subscribers only with the code HOLIDAY40!) Here are the three cards for September as instructed in the guide.

This month's kit made nine cards, three each of three designs.  You receive a Stampin' block in your first kit.  Every kit includes a Stampin' Spot (small ink), and this month's color is Cajun Craze.  Below you'll see how I customized the first card by adding some twine from the Nests of Winter collection.


For the second card design, I first added Night of Navy twine from the Nests of Winter collection and some faux glass dots.


For the third card, I folded the card "backwards" so that the pretty pattern was on the inside and then folded the front cover back to create a Z-fold style card.  I used Night of Navy ink and added some gold mesh leaves along with the faux glass dots.  (I love this one so much!)


For the second wood grain card, I used the "back" and added some Nests of Winter twine and faux glass dots.


For the third version, I cut up an envelope from the first (square) card because I plan to mail one of them in a regular envelope rather than pay extra postage for a square envelope.  I used the same Z-fold as I did on the second style card but turned it.  (If I could make this one again, the leaf on the left wouldn't stick out quite so far.). I embellished with twine and gold mesh leaves.


If you're a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, you can skip a month or cancel at any time easily.  The 10th of the month is the last day to make changes if you aren't sure that the preview is for you.  (I personally cannot wait for the October Nest of Christmas kit!)  If you're not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber yet, you can't go wrong signing up now (by Oct. 10) for the October kit at 40% off!  (Learn more HERE.)
