Shape Matching Technique - Great Alternative Card Idea using the June 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit

Welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Today I begin sharing beautiful Alternate Card Ideas you can make with supplies from the June 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Full of Charm.

The cards in this kit have beautiful floral images mixed with gold accents.  There are so many fun images to play around with and create a lot of alternative cards. The kit makes a total of 9 cards 3 of three different designs with coordinating envelopes.

Today I am sharing another beautiful card that uses the diamond shape as a focal point. I have a great tip for you on how to get a perfect shape that fits inside the negative space created by the gold stripes.

If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and make the original cards visit this playlist -  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL40dV1oxpkNkVAyXFAqFtnLYpeVtfUA6g

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 7-10 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.

Berry Burst Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Fresh Freesia Cardstock – scraps

Basic White Cardstock - scraps

Gold Foil Intersecting Stripes Cardbase – kit

Mossy Meadow Branch Die Cut – kit

Circle Label – kit

1- Trim 1/8” around all edges of the Gold Foil Intersecting Lines Cardbase. This will keep the diamond shape in the center.

2- Splatter Berry Burst ink. This will help hide the holes created in the next step.

3- Place some Fresh Freesia Cardstock behind the center diamond shape. I will hold it up to some light to make sure it is fully covering the center. Place it on something soft but firm, like the Pierce Mat and use the pointy end of your Take Your Pick Tool to punch a small hole at four corners of the center diamond shape.

4- On the Fresh Freesia piece, use these holes at each corner as guides to cut a diamond shape with your Paper Trimmer. Add it to the diamond space on the Gold Foil Piece. Then adhere to the center of the cardbase.

5- Stamp your greeting in Blackberry Bliss ink in the center of the Circle Label. Add to the center of the Diamond with dimensionals.

6- Stamp the Branch with Flowers image in Berry Burst ink, twice on Basic White Cardstock. Stamp the Large Leaf image in Mossy Meadow, four times. Fussy cut all out.

7- Adhere the Stamped images behind the Fresh Freesia Diamond.

8- Separate the Mossy Meadow Branch Die Cut into smaller sections and adhere them under the Fresh Freesia Diamond.

All Done!

 

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