March 2025 Paper Pumpkin Alternative Card Ideas - Use Complimentary Color to Create Beautiful Cards

Welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Today I am sharing more Alternate Card Ideas you can make with supplies from the March 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Daisy Daydream.

The cards this month are so cute with images of Daisy’s and Cute little Bee’s. I also love the soft blue & yellows together.  


This is the second set of alternative card ideas I will be sharing with you this week. These two cards use the Blue Envelope as accents to the bright yellow pieces from the kit to create stunning cards. I love the little details on these cards and can’t wait to share how I made them with you.

If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and make the original cards visit this playlist -  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL40dV1oxpkNm1Myq6BdMg8plSrhWR7G27



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!

3- From the Front of the Blue Envelope remove the flap at the score line. Then cut 2” to separate the flower from the rest of the paper. Trim the height to 3”.

4- Wrap 16” of Linen Thread around the top of the Blue Flower Envelope piece and tie a bow on the right side. Add to the Cardbase in the center with dimensionals.


5- Add the Gold Honeycomb to the right of the flowers on the Blue Flower Envelope Piece with dimensionals. Place the dimensionals where you will add the Small Flower & Bee.


6- Add the Small Flower & Bee to the Blue Flower Envelope piece over the dimensionals you already placed.


7- From the White Leftover Label Scraps cut a ½” x 1” piece and stamp “Hello” in Lost Lagoon. Flag the left side to create a fishtail banner shape and add to the bottom right corner of the Blue Flower Envelope piece.

All Done!

March 2025 Daisy Daydream Paper Pumpkin Kit - Alternative Card Ideas use the Same Layout, but get a Different Look

Welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Today I begin sharing fun Alternate Card Ideas you can make with supplies from the March 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Daisy Daydream.

The cards this month are so cute with images of Daisy’s and Cute little Bee’s. I also love the soft blue & yellows together.  


I am starting this week with two alternate card ideas made from the front of one cardbase in the kit. Both have similar layouts, but with a couple small changes you get two different cards. I am excited to share the little tips I used on these cards with you today.

Card #1

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

Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 3 ½” x 4”

Linen Thread – 5” & 10”

Cream Cardbase – Kit

Flower Cardbase – Kit

Flower Die Cut - Kit


1- Cut the Cream Cardbase to 4” x 5 ¼”. Splatter Crushed Curry ink using a Stampin’ Write Marker on the front. Add to the Thick Basic White Cardbase.


2- Cut the Flower Side of the Cardbase at 4”. Cut down the middle so you have four flowers on one side and two on the other. The four flower side should be cut at 3” leaving the two flower side at 2 ½”. Add the four flower side to the Mossy Meadow piece with about 1/16” at the top.


3- Heat emboss your greeting in the Mossy Meadow space along the bottom on the left side. Use an Embossing Buddy and VersaMark Ink. Add White Embossing Powder and heat until shiny.


4- Wrap 5” of Linen Thread between the two pieces just above the greeting. Adhere the ends to the back with Tear & Tape. Add this to the cardbase about ½” from the top.


5- Create a faux bow with 10” of Linen Thread and place under a Die Cut Flower. Add to the card with a dimensional on the right side near the greeting. I used the same Die Cut Flower that matches the one on the cardbase.


All Done!


Card #2

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

Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 1” x 4 ¼”

Linen Thread – 10”

Cream Cardbase – Kit

Flower Cardbase – Kit

Flower Die Cut - Kit


1- Cut the other half of the Cream Cardbase to 4” x 5 ¼”. Splatter Crushed Curry ink using a Stampin’ Write Marker on the front. Stamp the small Honeycomb image in Crushed Curry ink randomly all over. Add to the Thick Basic White Cardbase.


2- Adhere the second Flower Cardbase piece (2 ½” x 4”) about 1” from the top of the cardbase.


3- Heat emboss your greeting in the Mossy Meadow strip on the right side. Use an Embossing Buddy and VersaMark Ink. Add White Embossing Powder and heat until shiny. Cut a small Fishtail Banner on the right and add the Strip to the cardbase below the flowers with dimensionals.


4- Create a faux bow with 10” of Linen Thread and place under a Die Cut Flower. Add to the card with a dimensional on the left side near the greeting. I used a medium size Die Cut Flower.

All Done!
