Today is the last day to sign up for (or have an activate subscription for) Paper Pumpkin so you get in on the upcoming October kit. (See the details below. Today I’ve got a few more projects that I created with the September 2020 “Hello Pumpkin” Paper Pumpkin kit. This image below shows what the intended projects for this kit look like.
I took the kit supplies, added in a few other products, and came up with:
a 12×12 scrapbook page
three cute Bath & Body Works PocketBac hand sanitizer holders
and a fun Halloween easel fold card.
I thought it was best to share the measurements, directions and tips in a video format.
Watch my video first by clicking here (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.
Here are close-up photos of the alternate projects I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch the video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
A 12×12 scrapbook page
We are looking forward to going to Eveland Family Farm this afternoon. I’m excited to add some photos of our pumpkin finds to this page!
Three cute Bath & Body Works PocketBac hand sanitizer holders
This is the Halloween-themed one I demonstrated.
Here is my cute Thanksgiving one.
And this one has a Christmas look to it.
Here is how I cut my two pieces for the front and back parts of each box.
Remember to hold those center parts with tape on the back sides.
Use Tear & Tape Adhesive to connect the two pieces together. You can have either pattern on the outside.
Add color to the box (optional), tape the bottom shut, add the hand sanitizer, tie on the ribbon, and then decorate.
I hope I inspired your creativity with what I shared today!

Happy World Card Making Day! Yes, today is the day you have the world’s permission to make time for this fun paper-crafting hobby (in case you needed an excuse to get away to your craft room).
One of my most popular YouTube videos that I shared on September 16th featured how to get five different cards from one accordion folded piece of designer paper. I have that video on my September 16th blog post. I created two different cards with one of the folds. And then four days later on September 20th I shared the completed cards for the remaining four folds. Be sure to click on those links to see all the cards I created. Maybe those cards will inspire you today to pull out that designer paper that has been sitting on your shelves?
I’m sharing five more of the z-fold style cards from that fold but with different products. By the way, these cards all have a slightly smaller sheet of designer paper. I trimmed off 1/4″ from the left end to expose more of both sides of the designer paper on the front section. You can see the difference between the top card (that I shared on the 20th) and the bottom one.
So I’ll start with that one.
You may be wondering were I got that pretty blue designer paper? I added Balmy Blue ink with a sponge brayer and just sponged more ink on the left and less on the right to get that ombré look.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Peony Garden Designer Paper
5-1/4″ x 12″ scored parallel to the short side at 2″, 5″, and 8″ (then trim off 1/4″ from the left edge)
OR…5-1/4″ x 11-3/4″ scored parallel to the short side at 1-3/4″, 4-3/4″, and 7-3/4″
Basic Gray Cardstock
4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ for die-cutting two rectangles
Whisper White Cardstock
2-3/4″ x 4-1/8″
1-7/16″ x 3-7/16″
Silver Metallic-Edge Ribbon
6-1/2″
Directions…
Die-cut the 3″ x 4-3/8″ Stitched Rectangle from the 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ Basic Gray piece. Then die-cut the 1-11/16″ x 3-11/16″ Stitched Rectangle from the center if this.
Stamp the images on the smallest Whisper White piece as shown. (The lighter gray is achieved by stamping off on scrap paper first.)
Brayer the designer paper – darker color on the left and hardly any color on the right to get the ombré look.
Fold designer paper. Attach ribbon and tuck it before adhering the left section down. (Watch the video for other tips on this fold.)
These other four cards are made the same way but show off the beautiful Gilded Autumn Designer Paper which is now on MAJOR backorder. It won’t be available until the end of November. (Sorry if you are one of those who ordered it and are waiting.) But if you DO have it (or can wait), these are some cards that you could recreate.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

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 September 2020 Hello PumpkinPaper 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 is a photo of the intended projects from this month’s kit: 20 cracker box treat packages that you can create custom for fall crafts to celebrate Halloween, Thanksgiving, pumpkins, and leaves.
And here are the supplies that came in this kit.
I got my kit a little later than I usually do, so today I’m sharing my monthly how-to video here and including LOTS of ideas for you. I’m loving this kit! I combined the extra items in the product list at the bottom of this post to the above kit contents and created some fun alternate projects that I’m sharing with you today:
4-sided and 3-sided boxes
Doubling the treat containers (turning 20 into 40!)
Napkin rings and luminaries for a fall dinner
And several pop-up cards including a multi pop-up gate fold card

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.
Here are close-up photos of the alternate projects I made and shared in my video. (Remember to watch the video first to get measurements, tips and directions.)
4-sided and 3-sided boxes
These two were made by overlapping box segments.
Doubling the treat containers (turning 20 into 40!)
These were made by cutting the boxes in half and connecting the segments with scraps/cardstock to get two treat containers from one!
Two of these face on so you can see how I embellished them.
The third one face on as a dinner favor to go with… A napkin ring and luminary for a fall dinner
3×3 pop-up cards
Pop-up card with money pocket
Multi pop-up gate fold card
I hope I inspired your creativity with what I shared today!

I received a gift from my friend, Verla Carpenter last week…a face mask holder that she made with Stampin’ Up! products.
I loved it so much! What a great way to give (or even keep and carry) a face mask. She told me she got the idea from Fannyscrap Stampin and then converted the measurements from metric to imperial. So I had to make a few of my own.
So I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago how I made this folded face mask card/holder using the Beautiful Autumn Stamp Set, the Autumn Punch Pack, and the Plaid Tidings Designer Paper. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

Our 2020-21 school year begins in about a month. And we just found out that our school district will be starting off with a hybrid platform – half the kids physically attending two days a week, the other half attending two other days, and the remaining days set for distance learning. So I imagine teachers will have to manage teaching both in-person and online at the same time for four days a week? Not to mention having to sanitize and instruct while trying to keep a germ-free environment. Crazy if this is the case! We will find out more soon. But to all of you teachers out there, I bow down to you! It’s a 24/7 job as it is. I can’t even imagine how much more time and creative energy this darn pandemic is causing you to put in. You ARE appreciated.
This project that I’m sharing today is something that could be given to a teacher this fall to show them that appreciation. OR…it a teacher wants to mass produce a bunch of these, they could become gifts for the students on the first day of school. These gifts could be made fairly quickly once you get the hang of the folds for the card and cuts for the box.
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago how to assemble these gifts which include a mini shirt card, a bookmark, and container to hold them with a PocketBac Hand Sanitizer. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live).
