August 2025 Farmhouse Florals Alternates Set 1

Wow! I received my August 2025 Farmhouse Florals Paper Pumpkin kit in record time! Normally I’m one of the later ones and typically get it around the 19th or 20th of the month. But I received it Saturday and have been happily creating with it during the past several days. So today I’m super excited to share with you my first set of alternate project ideas.

This August 2025 Farmhouse Florals kit has enough supplies to make 9 cards (3 of 3 kinds). Did you get the kit and want to make them as intended? Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video.

I love to show kit subscribers 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 have several different card ideas for you (including 9 cards that I made from the supplies of 3!) and lots of tips and tricks. Earlier today I demonstrated these ideas during my Live Online Paper Crafting Class on YouTube. Maybe you tuned in?

Watch my video here 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 cards I created. (Remember to watch my video first to get measurements, tips and directions.) And the 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 (which typically becomes available after the 20th). 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.
