October 2024 Paper Pumpkin Alternative: Nests of Christmas

For this kit, we created a fun fold easel card and a matching tag! For the card, we used Real Red Cardstock for the card base and followed the measurements below. We decorated the card with pattern cardstock from the Paper Pumpkin kit. Then we embossed the Basic White Cardstock with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder. For the card stop, we used stamped the sentiment in Real Red ink, die cut it out with the Unbounded Love Dies, and and adhered it to the card with dimensionals.


For the tag, we made it out of Thick Basic White Cardstock and the Greetings of Season Dies. Then we decorated it with everything from the Paper Pumpkin kit! We stamped the sentiments in Real Red and colored the pearls with Dark Real Red Stampin' Blends. The ribbon on the tag is a combo of the White 3/8" Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon and the red ribbon in the kit.

What's Paper Pumpkin?

Pile of paper pumpkin kits

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!
