I’m having a blast creating with my August 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit titled, World’s Greatest! I love the elements and the possibilities. And the alternate ideas just keep coming.
This glorious, all-inclusive, monthly subscription kit contained the supplies shown below to make nine full-size cards (three of three kinds measuring 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″) and includes coordinating envelopes.
But I don’t assemble my kits as is. 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 including the extra items in the product list at the bottom of this post to the above kit contents and created some fun alternate projects that I’m sharing with you today:
- Four Alternate Full-Size Cards
- A Slider Window Card
- A Pop-Open Cube Card
- And a 12×12 Scrapbook Page

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 on August 27.
Here are the cards the kit instructs how to make. (Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video to help you assemble these as intended.)

We are looking for more to join our online Paper Crafters club. The commitment is to order at least $25 worth of Stampin’ Up! product in each of 6 consecutive months. In one of those months, you would reap the hosting rewards (free merchandise based on the club orders). And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
These alternatives look great ?
Thanks Jo-Anne. (Somehow your comment automatically went into my spam folder. Sorry for the delay in replying.)
I love the Aug 2020 PP alternate ideas and I watched the video. But I have trouble writing and have a problem getting the dimensions for each project. Is there possibly a PDF file that has the dimensions and/or diagram as in the scrapbook page that you can share with me.
I’m so sorry Carole. I pour a lot of hours into what I share already. I don’t have spare time to make PDFs for the projects I share in my public videos. ?
Wow!!! the trophy pop up card…so cool. So fun to watch and learn along with you.
Thank you..
that one was super fun to make. 🙂
