May 2024 Paper Pumpkin Alternative: The Best There Is
Welcome to our monthly “A Paper Pumpkin Thing” blog hop! Check out this month's Paper Pumpkin alternatives that we created and scroll down to join us on a blog hop to see what our creative friends have made with the contents of the May 2024 The Best There Is Paper Pumpkin kit. Registration for the next Paper Pumpkin is closing on the tenth of March so make sure you sign up so you don't miss out on the creativity that is literally delivered to your front door.
For this kit, we created a "dad" picture frame and a coordinating card! We really embraced the wood effect with the provided patterned paper while also adding some cardstock from the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. On both the card and picture frame, we used the Alphabet à la Mode Dies with Basic White Cardstock and Pool Party Cardstock.
Looking at the frame, we used the So Swirly Embossing Folder to add texture to the Night of Navy Cardstock for the base. Then we cut the provided patterned paper from the kit down for the next layer. The circles on the far right were cut using the Stylish Shapes Dies and the Spotlight in Nature Dies.
To decorate both the frame and card, we used the Opal Rounds Assortment embellishments.
The Life Is Sweet Paper Pumpkin kit can be described in three words: fresh, fruity, and FUN! 🍋🍋 Jump into this card making experience and create some sweet fruit-themed cards. You don’t want to miss out on the glimmery precut sentiments, iridescent pearls, and a few juicy In Colors! 😘

What's Paper Pumpkin?
Paper Pumpkin is the perfect way to jump into the world of paper crafting and get your creative “me-time” every month. Each month, we deliver all the stamps, ink, and paper you need to create a fun project, without any stress. Everything is precut and ready to go so you can skip to the fun part of crafting! Our subscribers always have cards and cute gifts on hand for every occasion. Your first kit includes a free gift from us—a clear stamping block. You’ll also build a collection of stamps and ink to use on other projects. There’s no pressure—you can cancel or suspend at any time.
Every kit includes an exclusive stamp set, ink spot, and embellishments to create a predesigned project. At least six times a year, we send an all card kit with eight or more cards. Sometimes the kit includes cards plus gift bags, banners, treat bags, or boxes. Other times, it’s home décor, giftables, or just treat packaging. No matter what it is—we promise you’ll love it, or we’ll make it right!
