Paper Pumpkin Alternate Handmade Gift Set
Spring is in the air, and I have a beautiful new handmade card tutorial to share with you! Today, we’re creating a Double Z Fold Card with a matching Pizza Box Style Treat Box—the perfect set for gift-giving. What makes this project even more special? I’ve repurposed pieces from the February 2025 Hello Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit to bring it all together!

Blog Hop Fun
I’m joining some friends today to bring you more inspiration with the Hello Spring Paper Pumpkin kit. So be sure to check out the BLOG HOPPERS links below for more inspiration.

If you love fun folds, coordinated gift sets, and repurposing your craft kits, you’re going to love this tutorial.

About This Handmade Card & Treat Box Set
I used the printed cards from the kit as the background for the Double Z Fold Card. Instead of starting from scratch, I let the beautiful pre-printed designs do the work! The words and flowers come from the Hello Spring Stamp Set included in the kit, making it easy to create a cohesive look.

To add even more detail, I incorporated two die sets that perfectly match this kit: Spring is in the Air Dies
Grow with Love Dies

These dies allowed me to cut out the flowers and create the elegant gold shadow on the card without any fussy cutting—such a time saver!

What About the Envelope?
The best part about this Double Z Fold Card is that it folds flat to fit a standard-sized envelope. That includes the coordinating envelopes from the Hello Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit—so everything matches beautifully! Whether you’re mailing this card or gifting it in person, it’s as practical as it is stunning.
