#APaperPumpkinThing
Welcome to our monthly APPT blog hop to showcase Paper Pumpkin kit alternate projects! This time we are highlighting the April 2023 All the Little Things Paper Pumpkin kit. See what I have to share. Then check out all the other blogs in the hop for additional creative ideas that my fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator friends shared. To follow the hop and see these other creative project ideas, simply scroll down and click on the names of the 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 April 20th. On that day I changed up the supplies to get double the amount of cards!
Today I am sharing a 12×12 scrapbook page layout with a fun artsy background and two z-fold cards made with “scraps” from the kit – pieces we tend to throw out.
Watch my 1st video first by clicking here to get measurements, directions, and tips (or you can just click on the image below if you are already in my blog post). 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 projects. And then feel free to leave a comment to let me know what you think.

Duck Hugs Cards…
Can you see where the duck shapes came from?
Which do you prefer…the green or the blue?
Grateful For All the Little Things Pages…
I hope I inspired your creativity with what I shared today! If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own.

Love what you did with the ducks and your scrapbook layout is beautiful, shanks for sharing.
Thanks Rose! (Or should I say shanks. 😉)
Oh… my… goodness! You are brilliant!! I’m so excited to CASE this idea. Thank you for sharing!! I love the blue the most, but they are both really cool.
Thanks LM 💙
It’s amazing how you can take almost nothing and turn it into a beautiful card. Your scrapbook pages are gorgeous as well! Love the tips with the Layering Leaves stamp set. It is a beautiful set on it’s own, thanks to you, but it was genius using one solid outside leaf to stamp color for the duck’s beak. Very creative.
Thank you for you very kind comment. Hugs to you Lisa!
stunning projects! how creative to make those ducks from scraps! amazZING! keep up the good work Rachel!
Thanks so much Betty. 😊 I giggle that my favorite card I made with this kit was this one from the scraps.
