Crafting with the Watercolor in Bloom Paper Pumpkin Kit

/ Leave a Comment

The Watercolor in Bloom Paper Pumpkin Kit, is full of soft florals, calming colors, and thoughtful sentiments. They are perfect for heartfelt cards any time of year.

Today I’m sharing the three cards I created following the kit designs (with a slight change). These projects show how beautifully everything coordinates right out of the box, no extra products needed! I love how quickly these cards came together. That’s why I love kits so much!

Miss You Card

I made 2 very slight changes from the directions. First, I cut the Vellum piece in half. I wanted the vellum to be more visible behind the die cut leaves. Second, I placed one of the copper sequins in the center of the flower, which I did on all three cards.

Thank You Card

This design is all about the layered leaves. I love how the background leaves coordinate perfectly with the die-cut elements, they work beautifully together.

Dear Friend Card

This one might be my favorite! The die-cut rectangle frames the sentiment beautifully, and I love the leaves peeking out from the top and bottom for extra dimension.

But the fun didn’t stop there 😉. After making one of each card as designed, I decided to use the remaining pieces to create a few alternative designs. I’ll be sharing my alternative card ideas later this week with different layouts, and some fun folds. Be sure to check back to see all the alternative cards.

Whether you follow the instructions or love to experiment, Watercolor in Bloom offers endless creative possibilities. Stay tuned, I’ve got more inspiration coming your way this week!
