Paper Pumpkin is one of my favorite things about Stampin' Up!—it's like a surprise crafting party delivered right to your door every month. The "Sweeter With You" kit was packed with everything you need to create beautiful projects, and the colors and designs are just perfect for spreading a little joy.

Before we dive into the details, you can watch my full process for creating these two cards in the video below. I'll walk you through each step and share some tips and tricks along the way.
July 2025 Paper Pumpkin Alternative #1 & #2
Card #1: A Simple & Sweet Surprise
For my first alternate card, I wanted to create a design that was clean, simple, and still showcased the beautiful elements from the kit. I used one of the card bases in a new way and paired it with some of the die-cut pieces and a sentiment stamp.
This design is perfect for those times when you need a quick but thoughtful card for a friend or family member. It proves that you don't always need a lot of extra supplies to make a big impact!

This card is a great example of how you can transform a simple kit into a multi-layered masterpiece. The subtle dimension makes it feel extra special, and the sentiment is perfect for a variety of occasions.
