Welcome to our unofficial Paper Pumpkin Insta Hop!

Welcome to our unofficial Paper Pumpkin Insta Hop!

Each month, participating members of the 2026 Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team come together to share alternate projects inspired by last month’s Paper Pumpkin kit. This community-led hop celebrates fresh ideas, creative techniques, and new ways to get even more from every kit.

This Month’s Featured Kit: September 2026 Paper Pumpkin | Aspens of Gratitude

About My Project:
I’m sharing a sneak peek of my card holder for different projects I design with this kit!

Want to make even more?

🍂 I had the pleasure of designing this card for @stampinupofficial Paper Pumpkin Idea Share, featuring alternate projects with the Aspens of Gratitude kit!

I absolutely love how the kit pairs with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and the Neutral Noel collection. Mixing and matching products from different collections is so much fun, and sometimes the results are simply stunning! 🤎🍁

And guess what? I used the envelopes from the kit to create even more cards! Of course, I loved it so much that I had to order more! 😂🍂 check out @paperpumpkin for more inspiration.

❄️Artisan Design Team Inspiration is here! ❄️

Today we’re sharing projects featuring @stampinupofficial ‘s Cutest Crew Collection, and I have to say… I LOVE this bundle!

I had so much fun pairing the adorable Cutest Crew with Ephemeras. The ephemera is fabulous because you can mix and match and add to the little characters and build them exactly how you want! ☃️

For my projects, I created two cards, including a fun technique for creating a wintery sky using ink and a blending brush. I also created snowy banks using cardstock to add dimension to the scenes. And, of course, I had to make a baby card because these little characters are just too cute! ❄️

I hope these projects inspire you to get creative with the Cutest Crew Bundle and create your own little winter scenes!

➡️ Next on our hop is Sara @kisskreative — be sure to hop over and see what she’s created!
