I love how you really think “outside the box “ . Those are beautiful.

[@carollewallingford9716]

I love how I can rely on you to post alternate cards with the paper Pumpkin. Thank you

[@pamelab7871]

I love what you did with this kit. I was not liking the “hope” idea until I saw you change things around and added BD and the word “Always.” You made this kit better than it originally was. Thanks for your fabulous ideas.

[@SuperChefette]

You are a joy to watch your voice is lovely . It’s so so nice to watch a video that you make cards and don’t fill it with a lot of chatter about family/ neighbours etc or sit there putting make up on and I don’t have to keep fast forwarding to get to card making 😘You make my day Thankyou

[@rochellenowik9875]

When I first started watching I thought..."she is whispering because she doesn't want to disturb her family"....I was right. I was delighted when I got my box and wanted to see what you did with yours. That black paper really gives that laser cut-out the wow-factor.

It's a small way to send the message of hope. Glad you like it Wanda. thanks!

[@luannepetersen6424]

You always think outside of the box and have such great ideas. I guess some of that comes with all of your experience in working with the kits for as long as you have. Love all of these. Thanks for giving us all of these great ideas on what else we can do with our kits!

[@bettyb.7425]

Thank you for all the tips and ideas, Rachel! I especially liked learning about cleaning the silicone craft sheet with a piece of packaging tape! 😀

[@nancyschneider6281]

I know I sound like a broken record, but once again your outside the box ideas are terrific. I did have a bit of trouble with dimensions on the envelope cards and wish you had a sheet of directions as you do with your regular tutorials. I did looks for them on your without success. I’m not the most techie person!

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

@@nancyschneider6281 Sorry for that. You are correct though. I do not post written measurements for the Paper Pumpkin videos. I share too many projects and the extra time that would take me would be a LOT. LOL I have to pick and choose since I'm also a mom as well.

[@nancyschneider6281]

@@stampyourartoutwithrachel I understand and usually don’t have a problem. My difficulty was certainly “operator error.”

[@sharibritton]

I love your alternative cards. Great use of every single piece in the kit. I love the fun folds that you do as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@susancstufft2530]

Very good Rachel. I don't buy the kits because I like my own ideas better. But love to see what the different demonstraters do with them. Great ideas. Thanks.

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

Glad you enjoyed what I shared Karen.

[@colleencarroll2928]

I have seen several of these alternatives, and they are all lovely. I personally would put "Where there is FAITH, there is HOPE." Instead, I constantly see "Where there is HOPE, there is FAITH." I have seen it done the latter way every single time so far. Just my opinion. I guess it probably has to do with the logistics of the pieces available to you. Beautiful cards nonetheless! Thank you for sharing.

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

It's the way the stamps came. 😉But thanks for sharing your thoughts.

[@karenchester3978]

Rachel......You have done an outstanding job with this paper pumpkin kit. When I first opened mine up and saw the envelops, I said to myself,"what would Rachel do? ". And you did an awesome job. Are you aware that after using all the envelops on the z fold card, you used them again on the " always " card. LOL....now I will have to buy a kit refill. I always do anyways. Do you feel alright?..Your voice just wasn't your usual cheerful self. It was more like you were talking so low not to hurt your vocal cords. Hope you are feeling well. again..... Super job!!

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

Thank you Karen. Totally aware that I used the envelopes again. If someone doesn't want to use their envelopes to double the kit, I want to give them other ideas. Make sense? And regarding my voice, I added a note in the video that I was recording in the early morning and didn't want to wake my family.

[@karenchester3978]

I am so glad that you aren't sick or anything.

[@joannaroth1116]

You could also dye ribbon with alcohol and reinkers

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

classic ink re-inkers? I'd love to learn how you do this.

[@karennichols9845]

Yay! I’ve been watching every day for your alternatives this month! I love the ribbon but my box arrived crushed so I’m hoping for ideas how to use the ribbon!😁

[@mydyisgod]

Wonder if SU would/could replace just your box? Would be nice of them if they did. Or maybe someone in the group would send you one.

[@mydyisgod]

I would be happy to give you mine. However, it arrived damaged as well!

[@susantipton4036]

Great alternatives. Loved them all. Was the big piece of plastic from something within the Paper Pumpkin Kit? Thank you.

[@jmbeyer73]

I always love your ideas for increasing or doubling the kit. I was wondering if you ever decorate the plain envelopes that you use to supplement the envelopes from the kit? I would love to see some examples.

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

Thanks Jodi! I sometimes do, but I can't recall a specific post right now. Sorry.

[@terab8885]

Rachel love your cards! I was wondering do you suppose the adhesive strips would work for the slider car or would it be too thick. I understand that you used dimensionals because they’re in the kit. Thanks

[@stampyourartoutwithrachel]

Thanks Tera! The foam strips are a little taller, but they would work.

[@vahodgins]

I just made the first card you showed, and I love the result... but it won't stand up! I'm thinking of adding something to the back to make it able to stand.... just thinking, haven't figured it out yet though!
