Kindred Greetings August 2026 PPP Blog Hop

 

Welcome to our Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop where our creative designers share our alternative design ideas each month for the current Paper Pumpkin kit. 

The card designs are stunning and soothing, I love this kit!

I decided to use the stamps in the kit with a few products that I feel compliment these sentiments.  Peaceful Pine is a soothing color and looks amazing as greenery stamped or embossed!  So here are my Very Vanilla and Peaceful Pine cards.

The embossing folder is exquisite for the featured layer on my card.   

My supplies are listed at the end of my post.

I stamped a patterned background with the greenery stamp image.  There is a layer of the Violet Dreams Specialty Designer Series Paper with loops of ribbon.

Such a lovely sentiment!  You only get these stamps as a Paper Pumpkin subscriber.

I hope you will use the stamp set to make all sorts of wonderful cards when you are done creating with your kit components.

Sparkling Celebrations May 2026 PPP Blog Hop

 

Welcome to our May 2026 Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop!  We are sharing alternative designs from the Sparkling Celebrations kit.  This kit concept has 3 card designs with 3 of each design and stunning printed envelopes.

The lantern print reminded me of the lantern festival in town that is at a local pond.  So I pulled out the sunburst die from the Sunset Coast dies to add a Pumpkin Pie cardstock layer of dimension to the sunset colors. 

The layers of Misty Moonlight and Pool Party cardstock with torn edges created the water for my "pond."  There is a layer of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and then the card base is Pool Party cardstock.

I have so enjoyed the new In Color Shimmer Pens, so I added layers of shimmer to the sunset colors.

Lakeside Retreat April 2026 PPP Blog Hop

Welcome to our Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop to feature alternative designs for the April 2026 Lakeside Retreat kit.

The Lakeside Retreat kit was designed for 3 designs and 3 cards for each design.  These are really lovely designs, I am smitten with these cards.

I took an envelope and cut it down for 2 card fronts.   Here is the larger layer with an embossed layer.

The Stone & Vine 3D embossing folder adds a nice texture on the middle layer. 

I love the colors of Pool Party and Misty Moonlight together.

I loved using the stamps to create the backgrounds.

Celebrate Spring February 2026 PPP Blog Hop

 

Welcome to our February 2026 Paper Pumpkin Possibilities blog hop to share many different possibilities for alternative designs with your kit.  We are creating with the Celebrate Spring February 2026 kit tonight and it arrives from Stampin' Up! with the design ideas below:

This is a truly adorable kit and anyone would be tickled pink to receive these cards, don't you think?!?

I had so much fun using the add-on Beautiful Bloom dies that coordinate with this kit.  I also grabbed some of my Easter Joy Speciality Designer Series Paper that coordinates with the kit.

I focused on Shy Shamrock for this card and the Pretty in Pink tulip is a pop of color like an exclamation point!

My next card I layered two of the post stamp dies together to create a longer rectangle for my card front. 

The Designer Series Paper layer was a scrap that just needed a little trim and made a lovely layer!

I love how the interior of my card turned out!
