From the North Pole bonus card; so cute! Refills are available!

December 2, 2022

I had time to play with the latest Paper Pumpkin kit this weekend – From the North Pole. From the hint they gave us beforehand I knew the tags would be cute!

If you don't like or need tags, they can easily be changed into Christmas cards. This kit is available in a refill for just $11 while supplies last. The refill kit does not include the stamp set or ink spot and is only available to current Paper Pumpkin subscribers. Here's a link to it.

Each month I send my subscribers AND my Team alternate projects using elements in the latest Paper Pumpkin kit. I share lots of ideas for bonus cards or scrapbook ideas.

Here's one of my projects using the 'From the North Pole' kit:

I always enjoy stamping my own background; the candy cane & dot are stamps from the kit. I used Sweet Sorbet and White Craft ink. I added the card base and the two card stock strips – the Mint layer is textured with the Gingham embossing folder. Everything else is from the kit.

Another bonus product available to current PP subscribers are these awesome Good Things cards and envelopes seen here:

It includes 20 cards, 5 each of 4 designs &20 matching envelopes – all for just $10! You must be a current subscriber to get these. There are perks to subscribing! These coordinate with the upcoming Good Things come in Small Packages kit – it's filled with gift card boxes. Cut off date to receive this kit is December 10th.

Quick Notecard idea with the Banner Sayings bundle

January 20, 2026

I needed to send a few special cards to my Team members this weekend and so I created these cute notecards:

The large piece of designer paper is 4″ X 3″ and the bottom strip is 4″ X 1″. I added a 1/4″ strip of textured Coastal Cabana between them (I found it in my scraps).

I chose to make notecards because the package I was sending their prizes in was narrow and these fit perfectly.
Did you know we carry pre-scored notecards with envelopes? The package includes 20 cards and 20 envelopes for just $10. You can see them here.

I chose the Hobby Haven designer paper because of it’s colors and ‘hobby’ themed prints. See it here. It’s part of our Online product selection.

I decided to feature the Banner Sayings bundle for a few reasons. It’s quick with the coordinating punch and the greeting I chose fit my needs perfectly. Click here to see it. The new Triple Banner punch was out of stock for weeks! But now it’s back.

A neat Diamond Pop-up Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet

January 19, 2026

I shared this pretty fun fold card on last week’s Live video. If you missed it you can watch it here on YouTube or here on Facebook.

Isn’t it a neat card fold? And it’s super easy to make. I also love that it shows off our coordinating designer series paper so well. Here I used the Lovely & Beautiful Specialty DSP seen here. It’s gorgeous prints include gold foil accents.

I made two different versions because I needed multiples of them for our January Team swap with my Flowerbug’s.

The center greeting layer is added with two folded strips of paper positioned next to the center score line. This allows the greeting to pivot and pop-up when you flex the card. These are about 1 1/2″ X 1/2″ and I simply fold them in half and placed with the score lines next to each other.

You can see how the center panel ‘pops’ up when it’s opened. I really love this fold!

I used the Greenery Lane bundle for the greeting and the White leaf die-cut. You can see this bundle here.

The other two dies are from the Perennial Postage dies seen here.

I created a free project sheet for this fun fold card. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card.

Cute as a Bug fun fold kit to go or PDF tutorial

January 16, 2026

Here’s the second kit to go I’m offering in January; the Cute as a Bug fun fold card kit:

Stampin’ Up! knocked it out of the park with this CUTE designer series paper! *see it online here It’s unique color combinations and whimsical critters make creating with it so enjoyable.

I created 5 different fun fold layouts and doubled them for a total of 10 unique cards.

The PDF tutorial includes step by step directions, photos, measurements and a supplies list. I also recorded a video tutorial exclusively to those who purchase it or the kit to go. This tutorial is just $16 and can be seen here.

The pre-cut kit to go can be seen here. Reserve it now and it will be mailed out later this month (likely around the 22nd of January).

The kit includes the following: 1/2 pkg of the Cute as a Bug DSP, a share of the Ladybug Garden epoxy gems, the Old Olive rick-rack ribbon and exclusive video link. It also includes 10 pre-cut cards! Everything is cut for you except your new designer paper. You’ll use the measurements in the PDF tutorial to do that; it’s easy! Then just assemble and add your stamped images to the greeting pieces provided. (Any greetings will work; feel free to use what you have).

My kits are super easy to complete. I get tons of compliments and repeat customers each month.
