Welcome to another Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! This month’s kit contained supplies for making 8 small cards and 8 bags. I really love the colors in this one, and it includes Gold Foil leaves!
Alternate project
This month’s projects are great just how they come! But I wanted to show you an idea to step up the card a bit!
I saw the small giftcard size and decided to make this into a Fun Fold Card called an Accordion Fold. To make this card, you’ll need some Crumb Cake and Basic White cardstock. Everything else is in your kit!
So you’ll be folding your card back & forth, then gluing the small card down as shown. I thought the lost lagoon image was a flower until I added the center. Blue pumpkins! Love it!
For the front, I just copied the design in the kit. I liked it just the way it comes!

Now the bags… I love them except for one big problem. They won’t stay shut! I’ve come up with a couple of solutions for this- you’ll find towards the end of my video.
I can’t wait to see what the others have come up with! Keep hopping to get lots of ideas for this month’s Paper Pumpkin!
