Welcome to the March 2021 Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! This month’s kit is called Here’s to You and it comes with everything you need to create eight fun cards with lined envelopes. I used pieces from the kit to make an alternate card and treat bag. Be sure to hop all the way around to see all the great alternate projects this group has come up with for you today!

- Calypso Coral CS layer cut to 5″ x 3-3/4″
- floral envelope insert cut to 4-7/8″ x 3-5/8″
- Pretty Peacock card base scored at 2-1/4″, 6-1/4″, and 8-1/4″, then horizontally 2″ from the bottom, for the bag base (It’s already scored at 4-1/4″.)
- cut 1/4″ away from the left end of the bag base (keep this piece)
- floral envelope insert cut to 1-1/2″ x 3-1/4″
Stamped with the Here’s to You stamp set:
- “Happy Birthday” in Pretty Peacock ink onto one of the small labels from the kit
- “Here’s to you!” in Pretty Peacock ink onto one of the larger labels from the kit
- trees in Pretty Peacock ink onto the inside of the card base
Cut using the Classic Label Punch:
- a scrap of Calypso Coral CS
Cut using Paper Snips:
- punched shape cut in half
- bottom 2 scored corners cut from the bag base, and the skinny tab angled on both sides
- cut one of these extra 1/4″ pieces to 2″ long and angled both ends
- cut up the score lines on the bottom of the bag, only up to the score line
