This is a Z fold card using the cardinal tag from the November 2019 Paper Pumpkin kit.

Oh my!  The weather has taken such a turn the last few days.  I'm really not ready for the "snain" and cold that comes with this time of year.  I really love fall, but that love ends when this crud sets in!  So today is a good day to post my alternate cards for the October PP kit "Winter Woods".  They were really fun to make, but a little bit of a struggle.  I always look on the Paper Pumpkin Fan Club  facebook page for ideas that I can use, but it was hard because I didnt want to use too many supplies.  This kit makes really nice cards and who can't use some quick Christmas cards!!  I posted my four alternates and instructions on my blog for all to enjoy.

I'm hoping to get all caught up on designs for upcoming classes today.  We don't have school so I don't have to go in!  Still hanging out in my jammies being creative and boy does it feel good!  I've been on the go every weekend in October so sitting still feels good.  If you click on "My Schedule" button under my header you will go to my SU website and can see the classes I have coming up at the end of the month and in December.   I haven't done Christmas cards in a couple of years but I am going to offer a few dates for those.  I'm really looking forward to them!

SU News: Today is the day that you can order the new paper trimmer, the Magnolia Lane designer series paper 20 pack, and the gorgeous Christmastime Is Here Suite.  They are now available to customers.  This suite is so beautiful you need to check it out!   

Have a great day,

Jill

This is a side step card. You can view the video on my you tube channel (Green Thumb Stampers), where I show you all the steps to create this.

This one uses the leftover card from alternate 1

This sample uses just some of the stamps from the kit and a tag, nothing else.

This card has the white panel popped up but I saw an example where it just uses the actual card in the kit and you fold the card so the trees are on the inside and then cut the circle out of the white part. A great way to use just the card!

I signed up Saturday on one of the SU live posts to send a card, next week, to the person that posted above me in the comments. It is her birthday so I used the card on p132 of the catty for this one. I hope she likes it.

I decided to make a card that used a bunch of the elements from the kit for anyone who didn't get the add on.
