PPP Blog Hop - March 2026 - Fluttering Garden

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 February Paper Pumpkin kit "Fluttering Garden".

These are the original projects:

This kit has supplies to make 9 cards with matching envelopes (Coastal Cabana with a white floral pattern on the bottom). The coordinating colours are Balmy Blue, Coastal Cabana, Early Espresso, Gorgeous Grape, Old Olive, Peach Pie, Petal Pink, Pretty Peacock, and Smokey Slate. The Stampin Spot is Basic Gray. Also included are precut hummingbird pieces and greetings. The embellishments are dots with gold accents. The bonus stamp set called "Fluttering Hummingbird"

Quick and easy cards to send for Mother's Day or any other occasion.

Alternate Card Design

For my alternate card, I used the "Fluttering Hummingbird" stamp set and other stamps from the "Fluttering Garden" stamp set to make a Birthday card. I also used the Add-On dies and an embossing folder to frame my beautiful hummingbird.

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, "Fluttering Garden".
