My May Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin’ Up! arrived a few days ago and I finally had a few minutes to put it together. This kit is pretty awesome! There were materials to make 6 birthday cards with envelopes and 4 gift bags. I love the bright colors, perfect for those summer birthdays!
The kit came with the Birthday Bundle stamp set, an Island Indigo ink spot, 4 preprinted die-cut bags, 6 preprinted card bases, 8 sheets of yellow tissue paper, 6 envelopes, 2 yards of twine to tie the bags, dimensionals and the die cut circles, tags and balloons.
I grabbed my Daffodil Delight ink pad to stamp the balloon and I used Island Indigo to stamp the string and sentiment for the cards and envelopes.
The gift bags are a good size! They measure about 6″ wide x 9″ tall x 2″ deep so lots of gifts will fit inside.
I love that the kit had both cards and gift bags, I can’t wait to start using them!
