Broadway Birthday Tutorial

Did you miss getting your hands on the June Paper Pumpkin kit? The kit coordinates with the brand new Broadway Bound Suite, the same suite of products used for today’s birthday bag tutorial. Isn’t the marquee greeting fun?

I’ve included written instructions below as well as a PDF tutorial download if you would like save this project for a later day. You’ll find a complete list of pictured supplies at the end of today’s blog post.

Paper Pumpkin kits include pre-cut supplies to create cards or 3D projects (it’s always a surprise), accessories and several pictured steps. Kits are easy and fun and perfect for the new or seasoned stampers. Use the kit contents exactly as they are designed or put your own spin on them. Not sure you’re creative enough to come up with your alternate ideas? No problem! All my Paper Pumpkin customers receive my Paper Pumpkin Parade – a bundle of tutorials with alternate project ideas each month they subscribe. Paper Pumpkin is only $19.95 per month – shipping is included – and will arrive right to you home.
