April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives 4-6

April 28, 2025

My favorite part of my job is creating. It doesn't always come easy but this month's Paper Pumpkin kit contained beautiful Alcohol Ink papers.  The papers were so beautiful and the kit included Nine card bases which had the design on the front and back of the card.  When cutting them apart you were able to create 18 card fronts.  I started designing by cutting them apart and then went from there.  Throughout the week I will post 3 cards each day for seven days that were all made with April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Inked Occasions

Card #4 This card was fun to create. If you follow me you will see that I have created several of this same card using different backgrounds.  The background on this one came from the Paper Pumpkin kit as did the little flowers.  I used the Linked Together Dies to cut them from the card panel in the kit


I love the softness of the Fresh Freesia and Pool Party.


 You will find the measurements and products used in the Free Project Sheet below


Card #5 uses the retired Split Card Textures Dies. These have remained in my stash and I will continue to use them. The die cut for the greeting came from the Paper Pumpkin Add On Dies Hugs Abloom. This card focuses on the leaves that came from the kit.  You will find the measurements and products used in the Free Project Sheet below


Card # 7 uses Berry Burst.  I hardly ever use Berry Burst but it coordinates with this Paper Pumpkin.  I used the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder, but be sure to stamp your little butterflies before embossing!


The ovals are cut from the two sets of dies we had in the past, Layering Ovals & Ovals Collection. The flowers came from the Paper Pumpkin Kit
