Oh! I’m in love with the December 2023 All The Best Paper Pumpkin kit! The imagery is beautiful. And I’ve been creating up a storm! I finished seven alternate card ideas…one is exclusive for my personal paper pumpkin subscribers, three I am sharing today, and the others (plus whatever else I create) will have to wait because I couldn’t fit them all into my how-to video.

This kit contained the supplies shown below to make nine pretty “dandelion wish” cards (three of 3 styles) and a box for gifting the cards to another.

But I never assemble my kits as is, because I like to show subscribers other ways to use those supplies. I like to think outside the box…see what else I can come up with, and create alternate cards, scrapbook pages and more. So today I’m sharing with you…

• A Hidden Scenery Z-Fold Card
• A “Fractured” Card (two versions)
• And a Pop Up Floating Frame Card.

Watch my video first by clicking here to get to get measurements, directions, and tips (or you can just click on this 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 creations. Then be sure to visit my blog again soon, because I have more alternate projects for you!

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.)

And here are close-up photos of the alternate cards I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch my video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)

A Hidden Scenery Z-Fold Card

Visit my 9/13/23 post to see the Hidden Scenery Z-Fold Cards I was referring to in the video.

A “Fractured” Card (two versions)

And a Pop Up Floating Frame Card.

This fold was inspired by an idea I saw from Lisa Curcio…thanks Lisa! Visit my 9/20/23 post to see the Layering Leaves Square Column Fold Card I was referring to in the video.

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.
