I was so happy to get my March 2025 Daisy Daydream Paper Pumpkin kit on Wednesday! March is Paper Pumpkin’s anniversary month. So it’s usually a special kit because it’s the month that Stampin’ Up! includes a bonus stamp set. But even without the extra stamps, I’m completely sold. The contents of this kit are stunning! And my mind is spinning with possibilities.
Today I’m sharing my first set of alternate projects. I’ll share more on April 1st within the collection of exclusives that my Paper Pumpkin Creatives Team is currently compiling. And then I’ll share again on April 4th for the APPT blog hop.
Here are the consumable supplies (minus the stamp set and ink) that come with this kit.
This kit has enough supplies to make 9 cards (3 of 3 kinds). Do you want to make them as intended? Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video.
I love to show kit recipients other ways to use their 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 bookmark card, a tube shaped treat holder, a “busy bees” card, a daisy spotlight card, and a trellis card.
Watch my video 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 remember to visit my blog again soon, because I’ll have many more alternate projects that I’ll be sharing in future posts!
I hope you enjoyed what I shared and gained some creative inspiration! Below are close-up photos of the alternate projects I created. (Remember to watch my video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
**Products that I’ve shared or mentioned are shown/listed below and are currently linked to my online store.

If you did not get this kit, I hope you can apply these ideas to products you already own. OR…become an active subscriber and get in on the refill kit (while supplies last). The refill kit doesn’t contain the ink and stamp images. But you will at least gain the main pieces and can hopefully replace most of the stamp images I used with some of your own.
