Paper Pumpkin Kit Hearts For You January 2025

Paper Pumpkin Kit January 2025 Contents

It was a rainy Sunday afternoon yesterday so the perfect time to get out my January 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit, Hearts For You. If you aren’t already a Paper Pumpkin subscriber and you didn’t get this kit in the mail maybe a week ago and you’ve GOT to have it, I can help you out a little bit on that! Stay tuned!

The weekend always seems like a good time to work on a Paper Pumpkin Kit. It certainly was a good time to work on this kit and get a bunch of Valentines made instead of at the last minute! If you aren’t familiar with Paper Pumpkin, it is a monthly subscription program for creative success! Paper Pumpkin subscription kits are designed for anyone who wants to quickly and easily achieve beautiful, handcrafted projects—anytime and anywhere! You’ll get a new project every month—one that’s great for all types of crafters.  Inside the box and the pretty tissue paper, you’ll find a pre-designed, pre-cut paper crafting project. Everything is ready to stamp and assemble. The only thing you might need is a scissors. The kit even comes with adhesives! And anyone can make these projects, whatever they are!

In the photo above, you see I have opened up my box and the packages inside with all the supplies, have the directions out, and the exclusive stamp set. Your first kit will come with an acrylic block for mounting the stamps. Every kit also comes with one ink spot. I usually hoard mine and use my regular ink pad but the 1″ ink spots don’t take up hardly any space! There is always a video of the assembly of the project that you can watch, and I do like to watch it, but the pictorial directions in the box are easy to follow. It tells you exactly where to put the adhesive and how long the string or ribbon should be, etc.

Of course, you can always “go rogue” and make your own creations with the supplies you are given in the kit. There are always alternate designs you can find online using the kit.

Here are the three designs of the finished cards! You also get matching envelopes and in this kit, foil hearts to seal the envelope flap!

Paper Pumpkin Kit Hearts For You January 2025

It was funny, when I made my first card (which is the second card in the top row), I stamped the hearts and greeting, tied on the twine, glued that piece to the marbled card base and I thought “Well, this card is okay but it lacks some pizzazz!” Then I realized I hadn’t added all the “things” yet!! There was the champagne foil outline of a heart, a smaller champagne foil heart, and the large Flirty Flamingo diecut heart with the foil accents. I added those things and then discovered there were also tiny little heart gem embellishments!! Once I actually completed the card with all the intended supplies, I thought it was beautiful for a valentine!

The second card I made was the bottom one in the photo. That card had a really creative background – lines of attached small white hearts! All I had to do, thought, was put the dimensionals on the back of each row, punch them out and adhere to the very faint guidelines shown on each card base. It went perfectly smoothly adhering all those rows of hearts! Then it was just a matter of adhering the two diecut hearts one layered on another, adding the foil word “Love” and stamping the little banner to put below the word Love. To complete it, I just added a twine bow.

The very first card in the photo was probably the easiest except for adding the dimensionals to the back of the foil heart so they wouldn’t show! But the directions showed how to cut one of the dimensionals in half to make them smaller. It worked fine.

All three cards for Valentine’s Day are very pretty and were fun to make! If you would like to get this kit, this is how you can do it. First of all, you must subscribe to Paper Pumpkin to purchase any extra full kits that are available or the refill kits. In this case, it looks like there is a Hearts For You Paper Pumpkin Refill that is available. With the refill kit, you will not get the ink spot and you will not get the exclusive stamp set. But if you have any stamps in your stash, you probably have an assortment of heart stamps and greetings that you could use on these cards, and if not, you can draw your own hearts with a red marker or red pencil or cut some out of red paper. You can write your own Valentine message on the banners with a marker or pen if you don’t have appropriate stamps. Just be creative! Actually, the only stamping you would need to do would be the card with all the hearts and on the greetings. And even if you omitted the greeting, the cards would still look pretty on their own!

If you are interested, subscribe to Paper Pumpkin and then order the Refill right away so it doesn’t sell out. It will count toward your Sale-A-Bration total as well! Once you subscribe, if Paper Pumpkin is not for you, then simply go into your account and cancel, or skip a month. It’s easy and no risk or obligation.

If you are already a subscriber and you’d like another kit or two to make more valentines, just order this Hearts For You Refill Kit right away!

Marbled Elegance Trio of Valentines

Marbled Elegance Trio of Valentines

If you want to make some easy Valentines, here is a design for you!! I think I could have made 100 of these! Well, maybe not, but I did make these Marbled Elegance Trio of Valentines! They were easy and fun and came to me right away! All you really have to do is get out the beautiful Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper and start cutting!

The card bases are just Basic White cardstock. If you have the Thick White cardstock it might be a good idea to use that or you could use Melon Mambo for a card base, then Basic White for a layer and the center design would just be a little bit smaller than these measurements.

The side of the designer paper could vary a little bit, but I cut mine at 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″. Obviously I used one of the marbled patterns with the gold foil accent marbling. It doesn’t matter which one! I layered the designer paper on a piece of Melon Mambo cut at 3 3/4″ x 3 3/4″.

Since there is plenty of space at the bottom of the card I simply stamped the greeting in that space right on the card. Now, it might be a good idea not to glue anything on the card until after you stamp the greeting in case it doesn’t come out well! But if you have everything glued down and the stamping isn’t perfect, just cut a label or banner or shape, stamp on that, then adhere over the boo-boo. On these cards I used Melon Mambo ink. All of these greetings are in the Hearts of Elegance Stamp Set.

I made each card a little bit different. On the first card, all I added was one gold foil die cut heart with one of the hearts in the Hearts of Elegance Dies. You can purchase the stamp set and dies together in the Hearts of Elegance Bundle and save 10%!

On the second card, I liked that middle heart cut out of the designer paper but it still needed something. I added two diecut Melon Mambo hearts on each side of the DSP heart. For a touch of embellishment, I simply tied a bow with the Gold Twisted Thread and adhered it to the center heart with a Mini Glue Dot just rolled up into a teeny tiny ball. This Gold Twisted Thread is part of the Marbled Elegance Suite or you can purchase it separately. The middle heart is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

For the third card, I diecut the fancy heart with the pierced design in Gold Foil. I popped it up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. And for a little more pizzazz, I added three Gold Dots in the Low Profile Dots package.

With only the Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper, some diecut hearts, and a greeting you can make a very pretty card….or even three!
