Hubby Takes Over the Craft Table: Stretching Paper Pumpkin Kits
Welcome back, crafty friends! ❤️
Today’s project is part of our Cocktails and Cards Facebook Live series—where hubby takes the lead at the craft table, mixes up a cocktail, and creates handmade cards using Paper Pumpkin kits. It’s the perfect blend of crafting, conversation, and a little something fun in a glass! One of the things we love most about Paper Pumpkin is how versatile these kits are. They’re not just for the month they arrive—you can mix, match, and stretch them long after their original release. This crafting session proves exactly that.
Want to join the fun in real time? ✨
You can craft along with us LIVE over on my Facebook page, Pink Barn Stamper with Dani Gurrola! Our live classes are full of inspiration, interaction, and plenty of laughs—just like our videos.
Cards, Cocktails, and Real-Life Crafting
What makes Cocktails and Cards so special is that it’s real-life crafting. There’s a cocktail being made, a card coming together step-by-step, and plenty of laughter along the way. No perfection—just creativity, conversation, and a slightly messy craft table.
The Paper Pumpkin Kits Used in This Class
For this episode, hubby created his cards using pieces from two older Paper Pumpkin kits:
Ho Ho Ho — October 2022
The Adventure Begins — July 2021
Mixing elements from different kits is a great way to stretch your supplies and come up with fresh designs. Even kits from completely different themes and seasons can work beautifully together with a little creativity!
Watching hubby create while sipping his cocktail shows that cardmaking can be relaxed and fun. You don’t need fancy techniques or brand-new supplies—just a willingness to play and enjoy the process. Crafting With What You Already Have
Why We Love Using Older Paper Pumpkin Kits
Paper Pumpkin kits are amazing on their own, but using them beyond the box opens up so many possibilities. Mixing pieces from different months, changing up layouts, or adding your own stamps and inks can breathe new life into kits you might have forgotten about.
This kind of crafting is:
Stress-free
Budget-friendly
Perfect for using up what’s already in your stash
And honestly? It’s just plain fun.
