October 2025 Paper Pumpkin – Cozy Christmas Unboxing & Alternative Ideas

Leave a comment

If you love cozy, classic Christmas designs, you’re going to adore the October 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit – Cozy Christmas! This month’s kit includes everything you need to create beautifully coordinated Christmas cards with traditional colors, flocked accents, and festive greetings.

In my video and blog today, I’m sharing:
✨ My unboxing of the Cozy Christmas kit
🎁 The three original card designs
🌟 Three alternative cards I created using the leftovers from the kit

For my alternatives, I used:

  • Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon
  • Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder
  • Cherry Cobbler Ink
  • Blending Brush
  • Stylish Shapes Dies
  • Abundant Joy add-on dies
  • Traditional Sparkling Sequins (I didn’t use these – but a great alternative if you run out of the kit sequins)

For my alternatives, I played with textures, layers, and a touch of shimmer:

The JOY card features a fun stencil technique! I used the negative frames from the die-cut letters and a blending brush to softly blend the letters onto the extra frame.
I used second generation ink to stamp the snowflakes on the die cut circle and I finished this card with gold striped mesh ribbon for a festive sparkle.
The background is embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. The green leaves come from the Abundant Joy die add-on, adding extra depth and dimension.

Whether you stick with the original designs or create your own alternatives, this kit is perfect for spreading handmade joy this holiday season.

Full of Charm – June 2025 Paper Pumpkin Replay + 2 Sweet Alternatives!

Leave a comment

June’s Full of Charm Paper Pumpkin kit is bursting with beauty—and I had such a blast diving into it on today’s Facebook Live! We started by unboxing the kit, then moved right into creating two bright and beautiful alternatives using the contents in fresh, creative ways

✨ Card 1 is a clean and elegant layout featuring the Pretty Peacock leaf die cuts, gold foil splatter background from the kit, and an extra circle from the kit with a Pretty Peacock sentiment popped up with dimensionals. The Berry Burst border adds just the right pop!

🌸 Card 2 features an elevated, layered design with gold foil stripes, stamped background leaves, and a bright Berry Burst-cut floral focal point. Both designs use the sentiment “Let’s Celebrate You”—perfect for birthdays, graduations, or any reason to cheer someone on!

📺 Missed the Live? Watch the full replay here:

These cards came together using some leftover pieces from the June Paper Pumpkin kit, some cardstock and the exclusive Hugs Abloom coordinating dies. With a little creativity, you can extend the value of every kit and create cards that are personalized, heartfelt, and truly special. Here are the materials I used (note – the Pretty Peacock Ink is included in the Paper Pumpkin kit in ink spot format).


The coordinating Hugs Abloom Dies Add-On (Item #166238, $16.50 CAD) work with the April, May, and June kits—giving you even more creative options!

Beyond the Box: Alternate May 2025 Paper Pumpkin Cards – Mountain Majesties

Leave a comment

If you loved the May 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit, you’re going to love these three alternative card ideas! Today I’m sharing how I used leftover pieces from the kit—along with the Hugs Abloom add-on dies introduced last month—to create masculine cards perfect for birthdays, Father’s Day, and more.

👉 🎥 Watch the replay here:

Here’s are my alternative cards:

🎨 Alternative Card 1: Reflected Wilderness

This card pairs a serene lake scene with deep blue layers for a nature-inspired masculine birthday card. I cut apart one of the original card bases and added it to a crisp white, then stamped the bird image across both panels for balance. The Happy Birthday sentiment is stamped and die-cut using the Hugs Abloom add-on dies. Finally, I embellished the card with Neutral Matte Dots.

💡 Tip: Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop up your sentiment for extra depth.

🌿 Alternative Card 2: Rolling Hills Landscape

This soft and serene design came together with extra pieces from the kit. I used one of the pre-printed sky and rolling hills panels and stamped birds and a birthday greeting using Misty Moonlight ink. Then I emebllished with Neutral Matte Dots.

⛰ Alternative Card 3: Earth Tone Layers for a Wonderful Man

This card features a pre-printed landscape layer in warm neutrals and cool blues for a striking scenic look. The sentiment “To a wonderful man” was cut using the stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes die set. Finally the card was embellished with Neutral Matte Dots.

💡 Perfect for: Father’s Day, masculine birthday cards, or even a retirement card!

These cards came together using only the leftover pieces from the May Paper Pumpkin kit, some cardstock and the exclusive Hugs Abloom coordinating dies. With a little creativity, you can extend the value of every kit and create cards that are personalized, heartfelt, and truly special. Here are the materials I used (note – the Misty Moonlight Ink is included in the Paper Pumpkin kit in ink spot format).
