OCTOBER KIT ALTERNATE PROJECTS
It’s time for our APPT – “A Paper Pumpkin Thing” blog hop and it is full of inspiration. This month we’re sharing alternate ideas featuring the October 2023 “Home for the Holidays” Paper Pumpkin kit. Take the blog hop below for more inspiration.
I’ve crafted not one, but TWO unique fun fold cards from the die cut houses of the kit. Like architectural masterpieces in miniature, each one a story of its own! See what I did there? Houses? Architure?
One of the fun folds, ready to pack a punch, had an unexpected visitor. The fun giraffe from the Festive & Fun stamp set! Because, why not? We’re all about fun here, aren’t we?
The gift bag created right out of the card base, armed with the Tricks & Treats Dies. Talk about repurposing!
Below are the detailed instructions for you to create these. Remember, refills are available while they last, so stock up!
What comes up in November? It’s a coordinating “Warm Wishes” kit that you wouldn’t want to miss! So, don’t forget to subscribe to Paper Pumpkin and let your creative spirit soar!

Have you tried these designs? I love to see your creations! Be sure to share them on #shareyourcrafts post every Saturday on my Facebook Page.
These are all of the cards I created from just 1 box. Not including the PPX project which I’ve sent to my Paper Pumpkin customers.
The giraffe is just too dang cute. He’s from the Festive & Fun stamp set. This is the first fun fold card.
This is my 2nd fun fold card and it has a duel flap opening and a different scene with each unfold.
On the instructions I shared how I created this fold with a template.
Check out my Tricks and Treats video class to see how to assemble the box and for more ideas.
