Hi! I’m Vy with Crafting Daily Dose. Welcome to this month’s A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop, featuring alternatives for the November 2023 Warm Wishes kit.
This kit included supplies for 8 treat packages, 4 each of 2 designs. Kits always come with an exclusive stamp set, a mini ink cube, embellishments, and adhesives. As of today, refills are still available for this kit, as well as the coordinating kit from October.
Today's project is a pop-up alternative that is simple to make!
To start, I cut apart the treat packages so that there is a little tab under each of the house pieces. The tab for the back (with the extra roof piece) should be 1/2" high, and the one for the front (with the door) should be just slightly shorter, at 3/8" high.
Next, I attached the house pieces to the inside of the card, next to--but not covering--the center crease. I put a little bit of glue on the extra roof piece and then carefully folded it over to meet with the house front, closing the card as I did so, making sure that everything inside closed down flat. Using glue here allows for a little bit of wiggle room before it sets up, so that the pieces have a chance to align themselves.
The cardbase is from the October kit because I love how they coordinate together, but the pop-up can be added inside any card. To finish, I added the wreath embellishments and sentiments.
Thank you so much for visiting! Don’t forget to follow the hop to see other creative projects from our team!
