My Paper Pumpkin

Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Pop-Up Blog Hop where we ‘ll be showcasing My Paper Pumpkin January Kit & showing you alternative ideas for using the kit.

My favorite Paper Pumpkin kit is usually the January kit, where the theme is Valentine’s Day. This year was no different and I just LOVE the kit!! Stampin’ Up! created this kit so that it pairs with Animal Expedition!

January Kit

Here’s what you get when you open your kit!

And here’s what you can make with the kit! All supplies included to make 24 adorable pillow boxes! I’m looking forward to handing these out with a little candy tucked inside!

Gate Fold Card

I used Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper for the background and the rest is pretty much My Paper Pumpkin. This is my favorite Fun Fold Card… a Gate Fold.

This month’s kit came with lots of shapes to punch out. Here’s a fun idea for using the heart shape that was left over:

I used Light Pool Party Stampin’ Blends to trace inside the heart.

Check out this video about the January Kit!

I love your gatefold card! How fun to use the kangaroo and the scalloped circle. It makes a beautiful embellishment for this card style. TFS!
