The Pop-Up Pals kit is one of Stampin’ Up!’s newer releases and the cards within are so cute! I had to have it. I’m a kit fanatic and I love to alter kits and share variations of what you can make with the products within.
Now… this one I didn’t change too much…I only made a few slight adjustments. I shared those ideas during my online paper crafting class today.
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 can view it), scroll through the photos that follow, check out the 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 photos of my cards and a visual list of products (each linked to where you can find them in my online store). Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live.
Here are the four cards from the kit with my slight alterations.
And here is the extra pop-up that I made and shared. The ephemera imagery was perfect for this.

I gave you the heads up a couple days ago that I was going to share with you cards from my Silver Elite Retreat that I hosted the weekend of January 17-19. Today is when I’m presenting the first of those two sets of cards. One is an interactive “faker shaker” card (so fun and easy to make), and the other four I would consider “fun-fold” cards. And they all feature the fabulous products from one of the most popular suites in the new January-April 2025 Mini Catalog.
I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these cards with those products from the Wildflower Birthday Suite and other coordinating Stampin’ Up! product. 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.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

My October Paper Pumpkin kit arrived, and I just designed my first set of alternate projects using the contents of this beautiful kit and a bit of other coordinating product! I’ll share most of them today. But one of them I’m keeping exclusive to contribute to the collection of exclusives my new Paper Pumpkin Creatives Team is currently compiling…projects we will share just with our personal Paper Pumpkin subscribers and team members (more details below).
Here are the consumable supplies (minus the stamp set and ink) that come with this kit.
This kit has enough supplies to make ten fun fold cards – five each of two different kinds. Do you want to make the cards as intended? Click here for a link to Stampin’ Up!’s how-to video.
But I never assemble my kits as is, because I like 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 how you can triple the cards from your kit by creating six cards with the supplies from two. I’m also sharing a shaker card and a couple book treat boxes.
Watch my videohere 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’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 made and shared in my video. (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.
Six Cards From the Supplies of Two (Triple the Kit!)
Shaker Card
Cardinal Book Treat Box
Chickadee Book Treat Box
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. It 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.

One of my viewers reached out a few weeks ago and brought a fun fold card to my attention asking if I would be able to make a video teaching the steps for it. It’s called a Freestanding Spinner Card, and I was excited to give it a try!
I was unable to be live today for my Online Paper Crafting Class, so instead I pre-recorded a video for this unique card and shared it on YouTube and Facebook. I used products from the new Lighter Than Air Suite from Stampin’ Up!’s Jan-April 2024 Mini Catalog which is debuting tomorrow, January 4, 2023.
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.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video.
