Paper Pumpkin Alternate Cards with a Fun Fold

Hello! I have two more Paper Pumpkin Alternate cards to share from the October kit called Peaceful Christmas. I have a walkthrough of both cards on YouTube:

First up is the 'flat' card. I cut one of the Shaded Spruce card bases in half, which gave me the two green main panels to add to both white card bases. This one was cut with Karen Burniston's Crosshatch Rectangles. I also used it to cut down the Buffalo print rectangle that came in the kit, because I love the detail it gives the edge. The Merry Christmas and Shadow are both by Karen Burniston, and I used one of the SU snowflakes on some layered circles. Since most of the details were given in the video, I'll leave it at that for this card front.


Here is the inside of the card above, using some leftover pieces from my stamping table and one of the red banners from the kit.


Next up is the Fun Fold Card. After embossing the green panel I added the vellum trees etc from the kit to layered ovals as well as some of the snowflake Peel Off stickers.


While I did use dies to cut the tunnel portion inside, you don't need them to create a card like this. It's simply 4 equal panels and you glue down the outer panels to the inside card base as shown in the photo below.  NOTE:  Before adhering the sides to the card base, I die cut an oval from the front for a pee-a-boo feature and decorated the fold of the card with a larger die cut oval and snowflake. The holly leaves were fussy cut from one of the papers in the package.
