Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop - February 2026

Wednesday, 25 February 2026

Welcome to our February 2026 Paper Pumpkin Possibilities blog hop featuring the Spring Celebration Kit. I love this kit and to make it even better, it coordinates with the Easter Joy Suite from the Stampin' Up!® Jan to Apr Mini Catalogue.

Check out the kit!

Craft whimsical handmade cards that celebrate Easter and sweet spring days.

Makes 9 cards: 3 each of 3 designs with 9 coordinating envelopes
Precut paper pieces and pink baker’s twine
Iridescent pink and yellow sequins
Coordinating colors: Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Lemon Lolly, Peach Pie, Pretty in Pink, Shy Shamrock (Classic Stampin' Spot)

Here are the 3 cards you can make from the kit. Aren't they pretty! I can't decide which is my favourite!

Here's my alternative card. I made a Joy Fold Card. If you decide to make this card, you will use 1 1/2" of the Lemon Lolly card bases.

Instructions

Cut a Lemon Lolly card base in half measurement 2 3/4" x 8 1/2". Fold in half on the scoreline and cut to measure 2 3/4" x 3".
Cut full size Lemon Lolly card base to measure 6 3/8" x 5 1/2"
Fold and burnish Lemon Lolly card base on scoreline using Bone Folder.
Cut Easter Joy Designer Series Paper and adhere to the inside of the card.
Adhere small card base to the middle of the inside of the card with the scoreline facing towards the right hand side.
Stamp eggs randomly on front flap of main card base using Lemon Lolly ink stamped off.
Adhere eggs to inside of basket
Adhere bunny with ears poking out of the basket to the back of the basket.
Stamp "hello friend" sentiment on tag label using Shy Shamrock ink.
Adhere to the basket
Cut 2 pieces of twine about 6" long each and tie a bow with both strands.
Adhere to the basket using Dimensionals.
Adhere the bottom of the basket to the small card base.
Adhere embellishments.
Stamp "Happy Easter" on the inside of the small card base using Shy Shamrock ink.
