Bone Appetit Paper Pumpkin Alternatives Banners

There were so many little leftover pieces from the August 2019 Paper Pumpkin Bone Appetit, so I decided to send some of my non-spooky Halloween friends a festive card instead (and I used up all of my little skeletons (boo-hoo).

~Enjoy!

Again, #pinspiration to the rescue! I love, love, love Lemon Lime Twist, it was such a great color & since I bought a ream before it went away, I have lots to still play with! Here I embossed it with the Corrugated Embossing Folder for the background. The little banners are hand cut from this kit & also It's a Sara Thing Paper Pumpkin from April 2017. The sentiment is stamped with Gorgeous Grape and the Cauldron Bubble Stamp Set as well as the elements on the envelopes. I colored some Silver Metallic-Edge Ribbon with a Basic Black Blends Marker & tied that around a piece of Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon. A little stip of Silver Glimmer Paper was added to the sentiment for a little more bling! Check out another version using the banner elements!

Stamping off with Bone Appetit Paper Pumpkin

I admit it, I use my old Stampin' Up! bills as scrap paper. I tend to stamp off or sponged off on my bills. Sometimes when I get done with my project I look at my bill & think how pretty the stamped off items created!

~Enjoy!

So today, when I was sponging some paper, I decided to grab a card base & use it as I was sponging away. The paper was a 1 3/4 inch by 3 1/2 inch square so it created some cool shapes as I sponged. This background is using Pumpkin Pie.

I stole the elements from another project I was working on to see how it looked on the background - it is going to be super cute! I colored the Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon with Basic Black Blends Marker and added White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon. The sentiment is from Cauldron Bubble Stamp Set. The extra banner strips in this set are from A Sara Thing from April 2017 Paper Pumpkin. Check out another version using the banner elements!

I continued on with the Pumpkin Pie background and added Gorgeous Grape. I think I added too much Grape.

Taking the project above and adding some elements from another project. It could work, but not sure I would use this background, maybe a layer of vellum may soften it.
