Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop - October 2026 - Noel Greetings

                             

 Welcome to the Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop! 

 The beauty of the Paper Pumpkin kit is that you can follow the direction provided in the kit to make the projects as they were designed, or use the supplies as a starting point and let your creativity run wild!  On this hop we will share lots of ideas with you on how to use the October Paper Pumpkin kit "Noel Greetings".

These are the original projects:




This kit contains supplies for 10 cards & envelopes (5 of each design).  The coordinating colours are Basic Beige, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Mossy Meadow.  The Stampin' Spot included is the new version in Mossy Meadow.
This kit lets you craft elegant, layered Christmas cards in a sophisticated neutral palette. There are precut paper pieces and gold foil accents.  
The cards coordinate with the Neutral Noel Suite Collection (item 168469)

For my alternate card I used the patterned card base and added elements from the supplies. I used the card base in landscape position to create my alternate card. Some of my other elements come from the Welcome Noel bundle.  
I separated the threads from 2 different colours of Jute and then tied my bow with the 2 colours together.
A supply list can be found at the end of my post.


Thank you for joining us as we share the possibilities of this great Paper Pumpkin kit
"Noel Greetings". 

 Now hop through all the alternate projects using the list below:

ICS Blog Hop - October 2026 - Fall Fun Folds

                                          

For the month of October we are sharing Fall themed Fun Folds.

I have made a fun fold using the Sunflower Fields Designer Series Paper as my card base.

It is wonderful to be able to show both sides of this piece of Designer Series Paper!  I love the small sunflower die cuts for the front and inside the card.
