I always love the Paper Pumpkin holiday kits and this Paper Pumpkin Home For the Holidays Kit is no exception! It all starts with the beautiful box that you can save and use for packing away some Christmas items after the holidays and know that it will be easily recognizable! The contents of the box were all wrapped up in red tissue paper. I like to say that getting a Paper Pumpkin Kit in the mail is a gift you give yourself and each kit is certainly made to look like a gift that you will enjoy opening!
This kit made eight Christmas cards, four of each of two designs. The only stamping was for the greeting which was popped up over a piece of glitter paper. There were extra cutouts of houses to layer on the card front, plus some evergreen trees. For a special bonus, there was a bottle of glitter glue to apply along the roof lines of the houses and on the windows. The scenes are really beautiful and easy to put together. If you hate using dimensionals and peeling off those little backing papers, this kit might not be for you! There are a lot of “popped up” things on these cards! There is also a nice sentiment to stamp inside the cards.
Here is one card design. The houses are the layer that you add with dimensionals, which are provided in the kit. Then you add the trees popped up as well, plus the greeting at the top.
Here is the second card design. This one has two separate pieces to adhere with dimensional to create layers of the decorated houses. The greeting is placed at the bottom of the card. And then the extra-fun part of outlining the houses wit the glitter glue.
Possibly Stampin’ Up! will find they have extra Paper Pumpkin Kits and will add them to the Online Store. If you would like one, just sign up for a Paper Pumpkin subscription first and then purchase your kit plus maybe the add-on Cards & Envelopes.

The week after the 20th of the month, after they try to process any credit cards that didn’t go through the first time around the 10th of the month if they have any extra kits or refills, they will post them in the Online Store. So if you have to have this easy Christmas card kit, sign up for Paper Pumpkin to get the November Kit (by November 10th), and then you can purchase any of the available Kits or Refills. Refills typically only contain the package of materials, not the stamp set or ink spot.
