It’s a big week for our family. Our 18 year old son, Luke is moving out to California with his friend Tyler to pursue jobs in the movie industry. I haven’t gotten too emotional yet. But I suppose that’s coming after they take off on Tuesday afternoon. For now we are doing laundry and packing, gathering up some starter groceries, getting in those final appointments (visiting the doctor, getting a haircut, etc.), and checking things off on our lists.
The boys will thankfully be staying with family at their three stops along the way before they get to their apartment. That gives us all peace of mind for sure. But we still welcome any well wishes for their safe travels.
Now I invite you to continue reading today’s post for this week’s creative ideas.

The 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar is a fun and unique product (available for the first time) through Stampin’ Up! I invite you to check out my Live video from October 4th. Shortly after the 44 minute mark is where I introduced and shared the products within each little door of the calendar. Then four days later during my October 8th Online Paper Crafting Class I shared projects that I created with some of these products along with measurements and instructions.
Be sure to watch my instructional video by clicking here* for measurements, tips and directions (or you can just click on this image below if you are already here in my blog post and 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 projects, and at the bottom of my post is a visual list of products (each linked to where you can find and purchase them in my online store).

Here are photos of what I made.
I didn’t even tap into half the products! There are so many creative possibilities with this collection of products.
🦋 Friday, October 10, 2025
On Friday evening I shared several more alternate project ideas that I created with the contents of the September 2025 Fall for Toile kit including boxes, a scrapbook page layout, and a variation on one of the cards I initially shared on September 20th,
Be sure to watch my video by clicking here* for measurements, tips and directions (or you can just click on this image below if you are already here in my blog post and 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 projects, and at the bottom of my post is a visual list of products (each linked to where you can find and purchase them in my online store).
I was asked the other day if I’m still making scrapbook pages with Paper Pumpkin kit. And I am! In fact I’ve made a layout (or at least one page) with 99% of all the Paper Pumpkin kits. Click here or here (my archive) to visit past kit creations I’ve shared.
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 (as of today it’s still available). 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.

🦋 Halloween Treat Container Inspiration
And for my last part of today’s post, I decided to photograph and share a bunch of Halloween treat packaging ideas! The first photo shows super simple ways to use the Spooky Sweet Suite of products (the stamps, dies, paper and bags) and the Fright Night Bundle to “fancy up” Reese’s treats and Hershey bars. I put these together in just a matter of minutes!
The topper for the bag is 2-3/4″ x 4-1/4″ scored at 1-3/8.” The wrap for the candy bar is 5-1/4″ x 6.” At the bottom of my post is a visual list of products (each linked to where you can find and purchase them in my online store).
The rest of these photos share the talents of fellow demonstrator, Rose Kerry. She gifted ALLLLLL these boxes, pouches and goodies to me! And I’m so excited to show them off to you in photos!! By the way I also shared these at the end of my October 4th video (fast forward to the 1:28:20 minute mark).
I don’t have measurements and a list of supplies for these. I’m simply sharing them to show off Rose’s talents and give you a bit more creative inspiration!
Thanks for checking out what I had to share from this week. I hope I inspired your creativity! 🦋

What a week! I’m starting to catch up again though. In today’s post you will see links to my two last Lives, photos of the cards I created and shared in my “Masking & Silhouette Stamping” Live, AND one more project that I created with the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit – a 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
For those of you who follow me on Facebook, in my newsletters, and/or on my YouTube Lives, you know that our youngest Luke just had hernia repair surgery on Thursday. He is doing great and taking it easy as he heals from this before his big move to Los Angeles next month.
I also had a minor medical procedure Wednesday afternoon. So both of us are on the mend. And my mother-in-law is on hospice care. So my husband was out of town Friday through Sunday. Hence the reasons I’ve been behind in my blog postings. Thank you for your patience.
Here is the link to my Live Online Paper Crafting Class from last Wednesday, September 3rd. In that Live I mentioned that fantastic cards can be made with just “stamps, inks and paper.” And I demonstrated silhouette stamping and masking along with ink blending and splattering techniques. (Click here or on the image below to watch that Online Paper Crafting Class from 9/3/25.)
These are photos of the cards I shared during that Live. And at the bottom of my post you will find links to the products I used to make these cards.
Branching Out Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Azure Afternoon, Blueberry Bushel, Gorgeous Grape, White Craft, and Wink of Stella inks
Prairie Grass Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Timid Tiger, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, and Wink of Stella inks
Happy Place Stamp Set…Tuxedo Black, Crushed Curry, Pretty In Pink, Coastal Cabana, and Wink of Stella inks
Here is the link to my Live Broadcast from last Friday, September 5th. In that Live I mentioned shared LOTS of gifted cards that I’ve received since my last show & share on 8/6/25. (Click here or on the image below to watch that Live from 9/5/25.)
If you were someone who sent me one of these lovely creations, thank you! It’s so fun to see all the creativity. And I get a lot of inspiration from all of you. If you’d like to send me cards to share in my livestreams, the address is: 14275 Raven Street NW, Andover, MN 55304
And now I present my full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout that I created with the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit. 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 it’s available. 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. And then…I encourage you to stay subscribed through September 10th so you can be in on the next kit (hints on the next kit can be found below).
The page bases are the light side (left) and dark (right) sides of the 12×12 Lost Lagoon Two-Toned Cardstock layered with 6×12 dark sides of Secret Sea Two-Toned Cardstock.
For the left page I layered sections of kit card bases together…upper right is 5-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, upper left is what was cut off 3″ x 5-1/2″, lower left is full card base, and lower right is 5-1/2″ x 5-1/2″.
After adding these to the base page with a 1/2″ border on the top and sides and overlapping the bottom right to cover up the bottom of the upper right, I used two envelope flaps, another kit card base (2-1/8″ x 5-1/2″) and some Mossy Meadow/Gold Ribbon for the title section.
I connected one envelope flap and the ribbon to the back side of the kit card layer. And then I attached this all with Dimensionals to conceal the bag and just show the flowers.
I cut out my letters from the second envelope flap and glued them (applying the glue with the Silicone Brush and/or the Precision Tip bottle) to the title area.
I stamped some extra flowers with Crushed Curry ink and dotted the centers with a dark brown Blends Marker. Then I embellished with extra kit flowers and some Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds.
For the right page I layered two envelopes and a couple sections of kit card bases together…a full 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card with a 3″ x 5-1/2″ piece from other cut base on the left page.
After overlapping and adding these to the base page with a 1/2″ border on the top and sides to form a 10-1/4″ x 11″ rectangle, I cut a half bag/flowers image and two circles from another kit card. Then I placed the half bag/flowers and my photo mats in this way.
I attached the die-cut circles with Dimensionals to conceal the bag and just show the flowers. I stamped some extra flowers with Crushed Curry ink and dotted the centers with a dark brown Blends Marker. Then I embellished with extra kit flowers and some Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies and Birds.
This would be a perfect layout to feature friendship or other close relationship (engagement, prom, wedding, anniversary) photos.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on August 20th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for all my alternate card ideas.

I have three more projects to share with you that I created with the Sweeter With You July 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit.
My full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout was SOOoo fun to make. I got the idea to distress/sand the light two-tone cardstock on the left page along the left side and bottom from a card I saw on Pinterest. And then the creative juices started flowing. I distressed the edges of the light Garden Green layers to expose the white core and inked the edges of the dark layers with Garden Green ink. Both techniques made the edges “pop” so much more.
For the right page, I added my outer four 3-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ photo mats 5/8″ from the outer edges, added the four others in-between, and then added the decorated pink square in the middle with Dimensionals.
To decorate that square, I sponged the edges with Strawberry Slush ink. Then I added the branch of berries and trimmed up the bottom of the stem. I added the flowers with the Flower Accents embellishments in the centers. And lastly I added a bow of Linen Thread that I had colored slightly with a bit of Garden Green ink.
You may notice too in this photo that I used a Bone Folder and Dimensionals to give lift and shadow to the strawberry, leaf and flower accents. I did this in fact for both pages. And then I splattered on Poppy Parade Blends ink and Wink of Stella for speckles, sparkle, and texture.
For the left page I added the distressed 11-3/4″ x 11-3/4″ light Garden Green page layer to the 12″ x 12″ dark Garden Green. I added my upper right 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ photo mat 5/8″ from the outer edges, added the three others nearby, and then added the YUM pink letters along the left side with Dimensionals (which I also sponged with Strawberry Slush ink along the edges).
I finished off by building a larger and a smaller cluster of berries and flowers in the two bottom corners making sure I trimmed anything that extended beyond the edges of the light Garden Green.
And of course I splattered on Poppy Parade Blends ink and Wink of Stella for speckles, sparkle, and texture.
Well, below is my completed card that I was working towards, and I’m quite happy with it. It’s sweet and simple. The “fabric” underneath is from a kit envelope flap. I added extra lines of marker (Granny Apple Green and Pool Party) to the lines in the plaid pattern to jazz it up a bit.
The bottom of the plaid “fabric” and the largest strawberry are attached with Dimensionals. The top of the plaid “fabric” and the smaller strawberries are just stuck down flat.
And the card base is the green kit card folded inside out. (There is a rectangular layer of white from the rest of the envelope on the inside for a place to write.)
I made and shared the blue version of this card a couple weeks back. This peach version includes “jazzed up” plaid background paper where I once again added extra lines of markers (Peach Pie and Poppy Parade).
You can watch my 7/23/25 video for the card assembly directions and tips. I had also promised to share this peach version, but I never got the demonstrating the plaid for both the above and below cards and had to wait to share them here.
OH! I also added in some Lemon Lolly ink with a Blending Brush in the background of both white layers.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on June 25th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for 14 card ideas.
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. 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.

If you are into preserving memories, scrapbooking photos and memorabilia, journaling and documenting life’s events OR if you want to begin doing so, I invite you to check out Stampin’ Up!’s® line of scrapbooking kits (scrapbooking workshops).

Then whatever I had left over would be great for either more pages or some cards.
Today I’m going to share this kit and walk you through the directions – maybe do a bit of assembly if I have time. Then at a later date I’ll come back with all my finished pages and projects. I’m also going to share the new Virtual Album Retreat 2025 kit. Purchasing this product will give you access to an event that will be taking place in just a couple weeks.

I have one more project to share with you that I created with the Full of Charm June 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit. Here is my full two-page 12×12 scrapbook page layout.
The page bases are the light side of the Old Olive Two-Toned Cardstock. The added top and bottom strips feature the dark side of the Old Olive Two-Toned Cardstock. To make the top strips start with two 1-1/2″ x 12″ pieces of the Old Olive. Then tear the bottom edges to expose the white core. Add the torn edges of the strips to Gold Foil and then cut the foil about 1/16″ out to match the pattern of the torn edges. Do the same thing to make the bottom strips, but start with two pieces of 2″ x 12″ Old Olive. Adhere these to the pages, but leave the outer four ends detached (so you can lift them later and stamp the outer leaves).
I used 2-1/2 of the white kit card bases with the dense gold foiling for the bottom layers through the middle areas and for the journaling strip. On the right page I placed one of the full card bases down 1/4″ from the left edge and 3-1/4″ from both the top and bottom edges. On the left page I placed one of the full card bases down 1/4″ from the right edge and 3-1/4″ from both the top and bottom edges. But I also adhered another 2″ wide section (from the extra card half) to make that white layer 10-1/2″ wide and then positioned the floral piece about one inch further towards the left edge of the page. On the right the floral piece overlaps the kit card base about 3/4″. Both floral pieces are added with Dimensionals. Be smart with where you place those Dimensionals though as you’ll want to slip photos under the right portions of the left one.
The right one has a few stamped leaves underneath. So you’ll want to stamp first before sticking the right one down completely.
For the letters in the title, stamp with the floral image from the kit stamp set with Petunia Pop ink all over scraps of Petunia Pop Cardstock. Then die-cut one set of the letters from these pink scraps and one set from Basic White Cardstock.
Add Early Espresso photo mats… three 2-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ mats across the top, three 3-1/2″ x 5″ mats and one 5-1/2″ x 5″ mat (tucked under the floral piece) through the middle, and two 2-3/4″ x 3-1/2″ mats and one 2-3/4″ x 5-1/2″ mat across the bottom.
Cut a 1″ x 5-1/2″ strip from the remaining extra half card base. Flip it over and cut the right end into a banner. Then add to the bottom right of the right page for a journaling space.
Glue on the title letters across the tops of the pages.
Lift the torn corners to add stamped leaves, glue down the torn corners, and finish the pages off with a few gold sequins from the kit.
I hope you gained some creative inspiration today. Thanks for visiting! By the way, I shared my first set of alternate project ideas on June 25th. Be sure to visit that page to see my how-to video, photos, and more for 14 card ideas.
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. 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.

It’s been busy here. Our youngest son Luke is a senior in high school and graduates this weekend. And then we have his graduation party next weekend. So I apologize for the delay. I finally had time to create with my May 2025 Paper Pumpkin kit yesterday. And I have a TON of alternate project ideas to share with you! Yay!!
This May 2025 Mountain Majesties 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 breaking down and turning the supplies for the three different kit cards into 9 cards (well more than nine because I share variations), I’m sharing a few fun fold card ideas, and I’m walking you through a two-page scrapbook page layout I designed. Lots right?!
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 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.
“Nine” Cards from Three Kit Cards (and MANY variations)
The first 6…
Two variations of those above…
And the three others. 🤣 I got carried away and shared lots of ideas using the extra layers. So here are EIGHT more ideas.
After the video ended and I finished up these cards, I used an embossing folder on one of these below…couldn’t help myself.
Fun Fold Cards
