April's Paper Pumpkin kit is filled with butterflies, scenes & fun fold cards. Each month I enjoy creating alternative designs with the contents in the kits to share with my subscribers each month.
I couldn't wait to play with this kit! Here's a pretty card I made just an hour after receiving my box:
I cut the front of a card base to fit on the front of a Crushed Curry card base and used other elements in the kit (butterfly, flower, banner & gems) to create this scene. I love changing up the cards; the kits are great as is but the challenge of creating something new is fun!
This next card uses the other half of the original card base. The flower layer and the polka dot layer behind it are from the original card. I did trim them just a bit to fit on a White layer.
Other Details:
I stamped the butterfly in the kit onto the Granny Apple Green layer with Versamark ink for a soft background.
The caterpillar is from the kit.
The butterflies are stamped on White card stock using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers.
The greeting is stamped on an Oval die-cut.

There will be a change in Paper Pumpkin pricing going forward. Here's what Stampin' Up! has recently stated:
Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit. On 1 March 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price.
But, there is a way to get the current prices for Paper Pumpkin and save money going forward. Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required.
So here's my suggestion for you:
Purchase a pre-paid subscription in February for 3 month, 6 months, or 12 months and get it at the current lower price for that entire time period! Go here to order yours.
Here's the pricing through February:
Plus with a pre-paid subscription you can earn free Sale-a-Bration choices at the same time. It's a WIN WIN choice!
And besides the free Sale-a-Bration choice you'll also receive free gifts (Gingham embossing folder & a calendar kit!) from me with your online order in February. See details below.

The March Paper Pumpkin kit included stencils and a sponge in the kit so I had to play with creating a scene. It's one of my favorite techniques!
One of the stencils has clouds in it. I used Pool Party ink and lightly sponged on the upper part of my White CS.
Then I sponged Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral ink about an inch and a half from the bottom edge. Now I stamped the trees image in the kit with Pretty Peacock ink. I did not reink the stamp each time so as I stamped repeatedly I achieved the appearance of a distant forest. Love this!!
The birds and greeting images also came in this kit.
