For this next card I flipped over the leafy overlay and used it as a mask with Balmy Blue and a Blending Brush.

I added some white baker's Twine and Shimmering Dots.  I also snuck in a foiled butterfly from the Butterfly Flight Foiling and Mask bundle....

Together we are bringing you inspiration on using your Paper Pumpkin Kits In new creative ways!    I just loved the colors in the June Kit!   and the flowers and BUTERFLIES!!! and Bikes! SO fun and summery I couldn't wait to get creative!  With just a few extra supplies I created 4 cards from 2! First up is this side easel card.  The bike portion folds down and the card lays flat! I added some die cut flowers from the coordinating die set and some Calypso Coral cardstock, as well as some gems. The card is covered with the cut apart envelope!  the next alternative uses the kit stamp set and left over pieces from the original card.
