A Paper Pumpkin Thing May 2017 Blog Hop

Hello!  Can you believe this is my third post this week!  When that happens it's either a miracle or a blog hop.. and yes it is a blog hop!  

This is A Paper Pumpkin Thing  Blog Hop and we're all about alternative ideas for the May 2017 Sprinkled with Love Paper Pumpkin Kit!  If you have already been hopping you should have landed here from Carolynn Sander's blog and thank you so much for continuing!  If you started with me please click the next button at the end of the post to continue on for all types of awesome inspiration!

So I have to be honest.... this month was a struggle.   I honestly loved all of the projects in the kit and thought they were perfect as designed.   I finally decided that the blue round cardbase looked like a wreath but wasn't cut like one so I took my circle framelits and cut a whole in the front.  I added a white circle on the inside and heat embossed the "you make me oh so very happy" sentiment in gold.  I stamped centers in four of the flowers.  I added three flowers on the left side of my wreath with dimensionals.  I tied a piece of the gold twine into a knot around the left side of the wreath and tied a messy layered bow onto the knotted twine.  I added three of the included confetti dots to the front.  For my treat bag I stamped the "for you" sentiment on one included blue banners.  I cut the top edge straight and added a twine bow like the one on the wreath.  I added one of the flowers and three more of the confetti dots.  I attached the banner with a small wooden clothespin.
