Eek! Just as Stampin’ Up! promised us, the September 2019 Bone Appétit Paper Pumpkin kit DOES give new meaning to the word “handmade.” ☠︎It’s a fun one for Halloween fans and for those who just love skeletons in general.
As many of you know, I LOVE getting these monthly kits! This month’s kit included supplies to put together 20 food-safe treat boxes. And it included the supplies shown below.
But I like to think outside the box…see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages and more. So I added the extra supplies in the product list at the bottom of this post to the above kit supplies and created my alternate projects that I’m sharing with you today:
- THREE fun fold cards
- A non-halloween card
- Wedding favors
- A “house” Halloween treat box
- And a tombstone treat box
Watch my video first to get to get measurements, directions, and tips (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog). Scroll down to see close-up photos, access the links that I mentioned in my video, and see a list of extra supplies (linked to my online store) that I used to make my creations. Then be sure to visit my blog again soon, because I have many more alternate projects that I’ll be sharing in the coming week or so. ?
Here are the treat containers that the kit instructs how to make.
And here are close-up photos of the alternate projects I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch the video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)

I was thinking about a birthday card for Halloween for my best friend She has a great sense of humor! I immediately fell in love with your fun fold cards. Can the Explosion card be made without a pocket? I’m always happy when I’ve seen what you’ve done with these kits! Thank you so much for all you do and share! We are better crafters because of the ideas Stampin Up! demonstrators share their ideas with us all! Thank you one and ALL!
Yes! I’ve done that same fold without the pocket…https://stampyourartout.com/2019/03/petal-promenade-ori-base-fold-card.html
