January Paper Pumpkin Cards

Here are the cards I made with January's Paper Pumpkin kit from Stampin' Up! 
The kit included four cards - which I cut in half so I could make eight cards.  I like a larger size so I cut my cardstock to 9" by 5 3/4".  Then I scored the 9" side at 4 1/2".  When folded, the cards measured 5 3/4" x 4 1/2". 

This was a hard kit for me.  Too many little pieces.  I like my cards to be cleaner.  I put my big girl panties on and went for it though.  I think they turned out ok. I received a freebie bag of In-Color medallions in my kit so I used a couple of those.

I did use some stamps and other stuff that wasn't included in the kit. Nothing wrong with using from my stash.  

Tip:  I know the card accents are self-adhesive but I have found that it is better to add some additional glue.  It may just be climate factors but I have found some coming off if they aren't glued to the cards.  You might not have this problem where you live.  Of course if you are mailing them somewhere else...better glue 'em down.

Thanks for checking out my blog.
