PPP Blog Hop - January 2026 - Special Delivery

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 January Paper Pumpkin kit "Special Delivery".

These are the original projects:

Card 1

Card 2

Card 3

This kit has supplies to make 9 cards with matching envelopes (3 of each card design). The coordinating colours are Blueberry Bushel, Bubble Bath, Darling Duckling, Garden Green, Mossy Meadow, Poppy Parade and Gold. The Stampin Spot is Poppy Parade. Also included are precut pieces with gold accents.

A great way to send heartfelt valentines featuring sweet postage stamp designs and sentiments for love and friendship.

Alternate Card Design

My alternate card uses the negative piece from Card 3. I put it over a piece of Basic White making sure to have it anchored in a few places so that it would not move. Then I used Bubble Bath ink and a blending brush to add ink.

Using the stamp set from the kit, I stamped the flower 3 times on Basic White with Versamark and added Gold Embossing Powder, heated with heat tool and then coloured the images. Fussy cut them to add to my alternate card front.

The little greeting "Sending Love" is made using the Add On Die Set!

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, "Special Delivery".

If you love exclusive products, you’re going to love Product of the Month, a promotion centered around a special product release every month. The Product of the Month items are specially designed to be some of the best items Stampin’ Up! has to offer that aren’t available in any of our catalogues or our Online Exclusives.

Every month we’ll release a new item that is only available for purchase once per account. These items will be limited quantity and are likely to sell out quickly—once they’re sold out, they’re gone for good!

You will find a complete list of the products used for my project at the end of this post.
