Paper Pumpkin Alternate Ideas…Sweeter With You Twisted Easel Fun Fold & Gift Box

Are you playing along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’ this week? Yesterday I shared two cool fun fold cards you can create simply by following the “clues”. Today I am sharing another twisted easel bookbinding fun fold I created using the July 2025 Paper Pumpkin Sweeter With You Kit.
I love this Paper Pumpkin kit and this double fun fold design!

Everything to create this card came from my kit (except the Pool Party cardstock for my card base and the red ribbon). I love to create alternate projects using the contents from the kit and this one was quick & easy! The card folds flat for mailing and twists and pops for display.

I love to create gifts to go with some of the cards I create. This card needed a simple box for the adorable strawberry candles that coordinate with the strawberries in the kit!

This little thank you gift and card is perfect for a friend who went strawberry picking and shared some of her delicious berries!

  1. WOW! Great easel card & I love the strawberry box!! Those candles are adorable!
    Where did you find them? The box of strawberry candles make such a lovely gift.
    Thanks for sharing!

  2. Berry sweet! What a great card and gift of strawberry candles. I love PP alternatives and this is really out of the box. So fun.

    1. Thanks Chris! Stampin’ UP! has really knocked it out of the park with the Paper Pumpkin kits of late! I often love the kits so much I don’t feel the need to create alternates! This kit was just sitting on my desk as I was creating the cards for my Mystery Stampin’ Challenge and decided to challenge myself to create the card using the kit. It was so much fun and I love how it turned out!
