April 2025 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives #13-15

May 1, 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 #13 This is a  Z fold card which is easily created by just giving an additional score line. This card shows the beauty of one of the more intense colors in the kit.  The flowers came from the kit. Die cutting the flower pot from the Paper Pumpkin card panel ties the right and left together. 


 All measurements and products used in  Free Project Sheet below


Card #14 This is a fun gift card that pops up inside.  The project sheet below will give you all the how to and if you still need help I have a covered it in the video. I love the look of Highland Heather with this card panel from the Paper Pumpkin Kit.  I have embossed the Highland Heather with the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder and used the circles from Stylish Shapes Dies.


You will find all the products and complete instructions in the Free Project Sheet below.


Card # 15 This is another fun one using the Storybook Garden Patch Dies for the flower pots cut from the Paper Pumpkin card panel.  The flowers were also from the Paper Pumpkin. Calypso Coral and Peach Pie were the colors that compliment the beautiful flowers. I love the new Mini Corrugated Embossing Folder it adds just the right touch.  Did you notice I used the greeting from the December 2024 Paper Pumpkin kit stamped on the tag from Grow With Love in Calypso Coral? That is one of the great things about Paper Pumpkin, you get a stamp set each month to keep and use again

Metallic Textures Rub Ons

By Debbie Chronister • May 30, 2025
For this card I started out with the beautiful 2025-27 In Color Strawberry Slush. I used the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape and die to cut the flowers. I added the beautiful Metallic Texture Rub Ons to add bling to the card. You will find all of these things in my Stampin' Up! store . Be sure to download the Free Project Sheet for all the measurements.

Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape

By Debbie Chronister • May 21, 2025
This sweet card uses the Extraordinary Flora Washi Tape with the die to cut the flowers. I attached the tape to a piece of Basic White cardstock and die cut it using the coordinating die. This made for a bunch of beautiful flowers to attach to the front and inside of the card. The greeting is from Year of Flowers. I added the beautiful little Iridescent Pearls to the centers of the flowers . The background is embossed with Glass & Gardens Embossing Folder. You will find all these products listed below along with Free Project Sheet.

Impressions Abloom Pop Up

By Debbie Chronister • May 7, 2025
No, I am not stuck on this set of dies, however, this idea came to me through an indirect route and I of course had to change it up and do it a little differently. The Thankful Garden Bundle or the Pretty Floral Bundle could be used for this idea. Actually any set of die cut flowers would work. I used an 11 x 4 1/4 piece of Basic White for my card base so the card opens at the top instead of the side to create a beautiful and fun easel fold
