Why This Kit Caught My Eye
While Paper Pumpkin is designed to be a surprise each month, Stampin’ Up! does share a sneak peek before subscriptions close. We don’t get to see the complete projects, but we are given some information about the design, colours, and special features of the kit. This month’s preview shows bright floral images, holographic accents, and stand-up easel cards, which gives us a good idea of the style and feel of the projects.
One of the things I like most about this kit is the easel-fold design. The cards stand up for display, making them feel a little extra special while still being very achievable to create.
I also like that the floral images use two-step stamping. This technique allows you to build colour in layers, creating beautiful flowers with very little effort. It’s a great way to achieve lovely results while building confidence in your stamping.
From what has been shared so far, this looks like a cheerful kit that will help you create birthday cards you’ll be proud to send throughout the year.
Detailed Flora Dies Add-On
Stampin’ Up! has also released the Detailed Flora Dies Add-On, which coordinates with all three Paper Pumpkin kits in this quarter’s collection.
The add-on is available separately while supplies last and provides even more creative possibilities for Paper Pumpkin subscribers.
