Paper Pumpkin – December 2021 – Lots of Pun Alternative Cards

Leave a comment January 3, 2022 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

I am BANANAS for the December 2021 Paper Pumpkin. The stamp set and sentiments that come with the kit are perfect for continuing to create fun, punny cards. Here are three more alternatives using the leftover bits from the kit and some extra cardstock.

The thin striped paper on this card was actually the leftover frame from the original striped pieces. To stamp the banana I used a sticky note to create a mask – allowing me to stamp and layer the bananas to create the bunch. I coloured the bananas with Soft Suede and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.

This egg-cellent card was created using some new 2022 SAB DSP – Sunshine and Rainbows. You can earn this DSP for FREE between Jan 4 – Feb 28, 2022. See below for all the details about Sale-a-bration.

This last card also uses the new 2022 SAB DSP – Sunshine and Rainbows to create a celebratory feeling.

Paper Pumpkin – October 2021 Peaceful Christmas

Leave a comment October 25, 2021 Leah Dixon - Stampin Up! Demonstrator

This month’s Paper Pumpkin was FABULOUS! It coordinates with the Peaceful Place DSP and I can’t wait to recreate some of these cards using alternate DSP from the pack.

Here is a video of the original cards in the kit. Below you will find many alternative cards. Happy Stamping!

Here are some alternative cards. The first one is a quick card that allows you to get two for one. Simply recereate the snowy card from the kit – but cut your card base in half and trim it down to 3-7/8″ X 5-1/8″ and mount it on a black trim 4″ X 5-1/4″ , then attach it to a Thick Basic White card base 4-1/4″ X 5-1/2″.

The next alternative is similar. Just cutting the card base into even smaller bits. Which actually gives you this cute piece, plus a long strip you’ll see on another of my alternatives below. The background was embossed with the snowflakes from the Wintry 3D embossing folder set.

This card utilizes the gorgeous silver trees from the envelopes as an accent. Don’t be afraid to trim up your envelopes to get some fun Buffalo Check or even just the perfect green accent.

A bit of embossing, a little bit of snowflake stamping and some strategically placed mini glue dots to hold the trees in place. The Buffalo Check strip came from the inside of the fabulous envelopes.

This card uses a leftover strip of card base on a Wintry 3D embossed background. The Shaded Spruce cardstock is such a rich holiday colour!

I hope you have as much fun creating some alternative cards as I have. These are the key items I used to create my alternative cards, (not shown Thick Basic White, Basic Black and Shaded Spruce cardstock.

The refill kit is also now available. Don’t wait – this one is going to go quickly.
