My March 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit arrived – Ten Years of Growth, and I couldn’t wait to assemble these cards. They are so incredibly pretty! If my photos don’t do these cards justice it’s because I’m still tweaking the settings on my new phone…I’m getting there!

I donate cards to a local hospital, and I needed some Easter and Spring cards this month so rather than following the Paper Pumpkin instructions (which are included with the kit!) I changed things up ever so slightly. I did use Easter sentiments from the Celebrating You Stamp Set and the Daffodil Daydream Stamp set. I also switched out the supplied Polished Pink Ink Spot for Gorgeous Grape ink. I also added Fresh Freesia and Gorgeous Grape Opaque Adhesive-Backed Gems to the cards. Other than those modifications, I assembled the card components as per the instructions.

Each of the cards contains gold foil accents…so pretty!

Paper Pumpkin Kits come with everything you need to complete the project. Unless you want to change things up and use other supplies you have on hand like I did.

It took me about an hour to assemble these cards…that’s it! The Ten Years of Growth Kit came with an additional stamp set and made a total of 9 cards – 3 each of 3 different designs. Sometimes the kits will include a little something extra. Which is awesome! The stamps in this kit will cover friendship, Easter, birthdays, Spring and Mother’s Day.

Have a wonderful day!
