I’m excited because today I have six more alternate projects to share with you…ones I’ve created with the October 2025 Cozy Christmas Paper Pumpkin: 3 boxes and 3 cards!
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.
*My video goes live at 7 PM Central Time. So if you click the link early, you’ll have to wait. But this gives you the chance to join me during the Live Stream if you are able.
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.) The products that I’ve shared or mentioned are shown/listed below and are currently linked to my online store.
A big thank you to those that shared other projects that influenced my creativity today: Vy Tran, Laura Seki, Lisa Marshall, Rose Kerry, and Sam Hammond.
I hope you had fun and gained some creative inspiration!
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 (typically available after the 20th but only available 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. I also sell my extra full kits HERE on my website after I’ve created all my projects.

Have you seen all the leaves that come with the Harvest Home Garland Kits Collection Kit?!
If I counted correctly, there are 224. 😳 Wow! And that garland strand is super full when finished (as you can see in this image above). So… if you want to make your kit go a little further, I suggest putting at least a few leaves aside to make some cards. In fact, if you really wanted to (and you followed the suggestions I’m sharing today), you could technically make 76 cards from just one kit. AND you’d still have the garland base wire and acorns left over to use in another way. So I’m excited to present my cards to you today along with a basic mini wreath idea too.
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.

Thank you for the excitement you shared when I showed all the Halloween treat packaging and goodies Rose Kerry gave me. Many of you requested instruction for her expanding paper pouches. So today I’ve created some to share! I gave similar instructions for a version of these pouches back in July of 2023. So if you enjoyed those, you’ll love what I am sharing today. I have Rose’s alteration (which she learned from Ronda Wade) AND another way to alter them to make them look more like a trapezoid when closed.

My October 2025 Cozy Christmas Paper Pumpkin kit arrived on Thursday, the 16th. This was super early for me! So you can imagine how excited I was.
This kit contains enough supplies to make 9 Christmas 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 enjoy thinking outside the box to see what else I can come up with, and then create alternate cards, scrapbook pages, and more. So today I have several different card ideas for you.
On Saturday I demonstrated these ideas during my Live Online Paper Crafting Class on YouTube. Maybe you tuned in? Watch my videohere 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.
All of these eight cards were made with the supplies of 1/3 of the kit (three envelopes and the three different kit cards). So technically you could more than double the number of cards from your whole kit (turn 9 cards into 24!) if you made these with ALL the supplies in the 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 (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.
Oh! I also shared two other card ideas in my video. These were made using last month’s Fall for Toile kit.
If you are not a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, I invite you to give it a try. CLICK HERE to learn more about Paper Pumpkin kits of creativity. CLICK HERE to sign up by November 10th for this next kit.
