3 Alternative Christmas Projects for November 2015 Paper Pumpkin Kit + Video

November 2015 Paper Pumpkin Alternative Ideas - Mistletoe & Holly Cards + Fry Box for Christmas #stampinup www.juliedavison.com
I liked the November 2015 Paper Pumpkin kit from the moment I first peeked inside my red box, but I enjoyed playing with it even more than I expected! Mom and I got in a little crafting time while I was visiting my family in Michigan over the holiday. Here are the projects I created with the Mistletoe &  Holly kit. I have lots of pieces leftover, so I plan to break it out and create even more this week!

I die cut the card base with the Fry Box die (#132966). It was a perfect fit! No one will notice the extra score line on the bottom of the box. I wanted to add some color to the inside of the box, so I cut apart the envelope included in the kit and die cut it with the Fry Box die to fit inside the box. 
Additional Stampin' Up! Supplies: Fry Box Die (#132966), Decorative Label Punch (#120907), Scalloped Oval Punch (#119856)

The best way to get more bang for your buck with card kits is to cut apart the card and use the front and the back for two different cards! I added a 1" x 4-1/4" piece of Cherry Cobbler striped paper cut from the envelope!
Additional Stampin' Up! Supplies: 2-1/2" Circle Punch (#120906), 2-3/8" Scallop Circle Punch (#118874)

I love the challenge of creating other projects with the supplies in my Paper Pumpkin box, but the original project designs are cute too! This kit included material to create ten cards! Check out this video to see the original designs from the November 2015 Blissful Bouquet Kit:
