Paper Pumpkin—Stampin’ Up!’s monthly subscription service— is my favorite surprise that arrives every month. September’s kit was no exception.
The Haunts & Harvest kit included enough supplies to create 12 treat boxes—4 each of 3 designs. You could take your pick of apple, pumpkin, or jack-o-lantern treat boxes! Plus, the Paper Pumpkin box itself could transform into a vintage wheelbarrow to display your harvest. It created a fun centerpiece.
However, sometimes one doesn’t need 12 treat boxes, right? Great news! Every kit includes an exclusive stamp set, ink spot, and embellishments, which means you can continue crafting with leftover kit supplies or add other supplies to create cards to send.
I created the kit projects as designed and alternative cards to share, and I demonstrated each during a Facebook Live. In case you missed it, here is an edited tutorial. Be sure to Follow Just Stamp with AnaMarie on Facebook and set your notifications to be advised whenever I go LIVE.

Keep on Creating with the Exclusive Stamp Set
The first alternative has been created with additional card stock and ink — Evening Evergreen, Cinnamon Cider and Basic White. A small length of ribbon and a scalloped label add the finishing touches.
A second alternative was created with just an additional half sheet of Basic White Thick card stock. The multi-patterned background was created with snips of the treat boxes. Here’s the video tutorial, which can be also be found on my YouTube channel.
