Autumn Card with the Bikes & Blooms Paper Pumpkin Kit

Today’s share is a fun alternative idea with the Bikes and Blooms Paper Pumpkin kit, this time with Autumn leaves. I wanted to make a card that was a little more neutral to masculine; you don’t have to put flowers in the baskets. So many options!

I used half of a card base for the yellow background, and then half of an envelope for the striped card front. I love the soft stripes on these.

To create the notebook edge, I simply used the 1/8″ Circle Punch from the Hole Punch Pack. See the very short video below to see how I did it.

More than flowers! As I mentioned above, I wanted this card to be more neutral, so went with some nice Autumn leaves in the bicycle basket. I cut these leaves with the Help Me Grow dies out of the Sunflower Fields papers (coming in September or now for Stampin’ Up! demonstrators).

I used both sides of the paper for variety.
