#APaperPumpkinThing
Welcome to our monthly “A Paper Pumpkin Thing” blog hop! See what I have to share. Then check out all the other blogs in the hop to see additional creative alternate paper crafting project ideas that we each came up with using the contents of the May 2022 Celebrating In Color Paper Pumpkin kit. To follow the hop and see other creative project ideas, simply scroll down and click on the names of other hop participants. (If you are receiving this blog post by email, click HERE to see the hop.)
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.)
I’ve already shared some other alternate projects using the contents of this kit on May 23rd.
- Thirteen alternate card ideas using supplies for five of the cards (to show how to more than double the cards in the kit)
- And a simple gift box idea

Today I am sharing a couple more.

Aww…thanks Tracy!
The video for the Half Easel card says “Private”. Would love to make this card for 2 graduations next month. Is there a reason why it is private? Thanks
I’m so sorry. I scheduled it incorrectly. Looks like it was set to for tomorrow instead of today. That’s what I get for blogging at 1 AM. Hahaaha! Thank you Marci for bringing this to my attention. ~Rachel
