A Quick & Simple Card Idea using the Farmhouse Florals August 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit - Stampin' Up!

Welcome to Paper Pumpkin Week here on Creative Chelsey. Over the last week I have shared some great card ideas you can make with from the August 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit called Farmhouse Florals.

The cards in this kit have beautiful floral mixed with farmhouse images like a window pane, basket & typewriter. I love the simplicity of these cards and wanted to carry it into my alternatives as well.  The kit makes a total of 9 cards 3 of three different designs with coordinating envelopes.

Today I am sharing my sixth alternative card idea. This is a quick and simple card that uses the front of the typewriter cardbase. I love the little details I added to step it up.

If you would like to watch me unbox the kit and make the original cards visit this playlist -  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL40dV1oxpkNlmD-ZYmLZXnqpRLnwKNAyi

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.

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.

Cloud Cover Cardbase – 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”

Darling Duckling Cardstock – scrap for accent piece

Typewriter Cardbase (kit) – 3-5/8” x 4”

¼” Strip from any Cardbase (kit)

Single Yellow Flower Die Cuts (kit)

 

1- Make sure to use the Cutting Guide (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w8SVMCWiI6t93VmcuvO6yF5Ua8c34ucH/view?usp=sharing) to cut your pattern paper to the right size from the cardbases in the kit.

2- Splatter with a Blue Ink over the Cloud Cover Cardbase. I used a Dark Misty Moonlight Blend Marker.

3- If you want, round the corners of the Typewriter Cardbase piece. I used a retired punch. Add this to the middle of the cardbase with a little extra space on the bottom.

4- Add a greeting inside the Paper in the Typewriter. I used the ¼” strip from leftover scraps when I was cutting up my cardbases from the kit. Stamp any greeting you want in Secret Sea ink and then cut up the words to fit.

I used the “Good Friends….” Greeting and cut it up to say “I’m so glad we are friends”.

5- Add a little detail with Darling Ducking Cardstock to the top left corner. I used a retired Banner Punch. You could do the same with a 5/8” strip. Tie a bow with 8” of Linen Thread and add with a small glue dot inside the Banner.

6- Add the last Single Yellow Flower to the right side of the Typewriter. You can make it look like it is behind the Typewriter by cutting a straight edge from one of the petals.

All Done!

 

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