Review and Giveaway: Stampin' Up Paper Pumpkin Kit for April

For my wreath I followed the kit instructions but I had supplies left over so I also made a pretty card. On a yellow cardstock base I layered green and kraft cardstock, adding a strip of the die leaves cut in half across the bottom. I cut little strips of kraft for stems and added the yellow paper flowers on the stems, scrunching up the center flower on a brad instead of folding it. On a tag I stamped the words, colored the flowers with a gel pen and tied some extra ribbon around, adhering it to the card with foam squares.
