I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but it's suppose to be a banner to go on a cake. While that is a cute idea if you are into that kind of thing, I knew it was something that wasn't going to happen here. So I took the pieces in the kit, added some card stock and rhinestone jewels from my stash and came up with these:

One of the beauties of these kits is you can quickly put them together the way they are intended, or you can change it up and use the parts and pieces in new and different ways. My goal is to show you at least one alternative way to assemble the kit each month. I ended up a little behind with the July kit, but watch for the August kit and an alternative idea to be posted around the end of the month.
Don't forget, right now until the end of August, you can sign up for Paper Pumpkin for just $10 for the first two months. I have heard from others that the process is kind of confusing, so here is the step by step way to sign yourself up for your creative escape:

If it's a PO BOX, than leave the PO off and just enter "Box" and your number. Don't forget that Paper Pumpkin makes a wonderful gift so if you are sending this to a friend or family member, enter their address instead of yours on this page. Click Continue
