THIS -OR- THAT Which One Is Your Favorite? Two Alternate Card Ideas February 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit

Welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Today I continue sharing fun Alternate Card Ideas you can make with supplies from the February 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Hello Spring.

The cards this month are perfect for Spring, with images of Herbs and soft blues, greens & pinks.  


This is the second set of alternative card ideas I will be sharing with you this week. These two cards use the same size pieces to create different backgrounds. I would love to know which one is your favorite – This or That?


If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and make the original cards visit this playlist -  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL40dV1oxpkNn3uZadkWjCmO0DXa_N2BHf


Each month I take the contents from the paper pumpkin kits and make alternative projects. My cards are easy to follow and can be made by both experienced or new paper crafter. You may need just a couple other products to complete them. You can follow along with me using supplies you already have or purchase any products you see me use from my online store. A full supply list is below or on my blog – www.creativechelsey.com

I also want to mention the amazing perks you can receive when you subscribe to Paper Pumpkin with me as your demonstrator. With every Paper Pumpkin Stamp Set & Ink Spot sent, I design a card and mail out my very own card kit to my subscribers so they can make two of my exclusive card design. These cards so fun and show new ways to use stamps & ink. We also meet once each month to make the card together, chat & have fun. *PLUS I have joined with other Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators to design 8-10 more alternative ideas in a PDF Tutorial (includes photos & instructions). My subscribers receive this PDF Tutorial along with an Exclusively Designed Card Kit, all for FREE! If you would also like to receive this extra perk, sign up for paper pumpkin using the link below and make sure to select me as your demonstrator.

Card #1

Basic Beige Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Crumb Cake Cardstock – 1” x 4”

Basic Beige Cardbase – Kit

Envelope Front – Kit

Basil Label & Die Cut – Kit

Die Cut Leftover Scraps - Kit


1- Cut the Basic Beige Cardbase and the Envelope Front from the kit to 4” x 5 ¼”. Place them together and cut the 5 ¼” edge at 2 ¾”. So you have two pieces that are 2 ¾” x 4” and two pieces that are 2 ½” x 4”.

2- Add the Envelope 2 ¾” x 4” piece to the bottom half of the Cardbase. Tear the Crumb Cake strip down one side and attach to the 4” side of the Basic Beige 2 ½” x 4” piece. Add this to the top half of the Cardbase so the Crumb Cake torn edge is between the two pattern pieces.


3- Add the Basil Die Cut over the printed Basil Label with a dimensional. Add the Label with dimensionals to left of center on the Cardbase.


4- Stamp the For You Greeting in Crumb Cake in a large area from the leftover die cut scraps in the kit. Fussy cut or punch out with ¾” Circle. Add near the Basil Die Cut with a dimensional.

5- Add 3-5 Neutral Embellishments.

All Done!


Card #2

Crumb Cake Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Basic Beige Cardbase – Kit

Envelope Front – Kit

Chives Label – Kit

Pink Angled Label - Kit

Die Cut Leftover Scraps - Kit

Linen Thread – 12”


1- Layer the 2 ½” x 4” Envelope Piece behind the 2 ¾” x 4” Basic Beige Piece so about ¼” to ½” of border is showing from the top & right sides.


2- Stamp the Chives Flower in Petunia Pop on the Die Cut Scrap piece, without reinking stamp again on the Chives Label. This is called 2nd Generation Stamping and it will give you a lighter color. Repeat two more times.


3- With the Coordinating Chives Flower Die cut out 2 from the Scrap piece. You can fussy cut them or use the coordinating Spring Is In The Air Dies. Add them to the Chives Label with a rolled-up piece of Tear & Tape to give a little dimension.





4- Add the Chives Label with dimensionals to the left of center on the two pattern pieces.

5- Use tear & tape to add a faux bow with 12” of Linen Thread in the bottom right area of the Chives Label.


6- Stamp your greeting on the Pink Angled Label in Petunia Pop. Add a Dimensional to the right side and place over the faux bow on the right side.

7- Adhere everything to the center of the cardbase.

All Done!




I have also created a video walking you through each step.
