If you are starting here or joining me from the talented Debbie Henderson - I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!!! Welcome to A PAPER PUMPKIN THING BLOG HOP. I think you love what we've created with the April Paper Pumpkin Kit – YOU ARE MY ANCHOR – it's soooo cute!
I love laying my kit contents out so I can see exactly what I have to play with.
This is the stamp set that's included with this kit:
How cute are these??? I made them according to the directions that come with the kit.
And then I made this adorable treat box:
You'll find a quick video tutorial here showing how to make this little peekaboo window box and some tips about the other alternate cards I made with this kit:
If the video doesn't play – click HERE to watch it on my blog.
The card below uses a Calypso Coral base (11" x 4-1/4") and the Whisper White layer is 2-1/2" x 5-1/2". The orange strips are from the little patterned note card:
This card uses a Pool Party card base with Pool Party ink stamped boats on the card front. I added the starfish with Crumb Cake ink on the white note card front and the little THANKS.

And then I made this cute gift card holder with one of the note card envelopes. Again I stamped Crumb Cake starfish on the card front.
Here's a photo of all the cards I made and remember – I only made one of each of the cards in the directions – I have so much left to make more cards!

Thanks for stopping by…





















These projects are all so FUN! I love the little crumb cake accents you used…even though that’s a neutral color, it sure makes the other colors pop. Thanks for sharing 😀
Love what you’ve done Kelly! AWESOME IDEAS!
Wow, lots of great projects with this kit!
Cute! I love how you used that striped card base!
Fun cards. I did the same – made one set like intended and then had the rest left for other creations.
Love these cards! Great idea to use the mini envelope to hold the gift card!
I do love the SU Paper Pumpkin and I get very, very jealous that we cannot get these in the UK. But at least I can watch you use yours Kelly. :O)
