Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop Kisses & Hugs

Welcome to the first Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop of 2022. It's always fun to create alternate projects with my Paper Pumpkin kit each month, then join in the blog hop to share these projects with all of you. I am in love with the January Kisses & Hugs kit with its pretty colors and metallic gold accents, the fun fold cards, and sweet stamp set.

Here's a fun Stampin' Up! video showcasing the Paper Pumpkin January 2022 Kit Kisses & Hugs.

I chose to make a Valentine collage with my Kisses & Hugs Kit. This project is easy to make and can be framed for hanging or to give as a gift or use it in a scrapbook. No matter what you choose, it'll be a special keepsake for yourself or a loved one.

All the hearts used and their decorations are from the contents of my kit. I added layers of Vellum card stock (8 1/2" x 8 1/2"), Gray Granite card stock (9" x 9"), Gold Foil (9 1/4" x 9 1/4"), and Blushing Bride (12" x 12"). I love the look of this collage – simple but elegant and fun and festive.
