Hello, hello, and happy Monday Night Stamping! In this replay I’m playing with the November Paper Pumpkin kit – Wrapped in Cheer and then taking some of those cute pieces straight onto a 12" x 12" Christmas scrapbook layout using the Traditions of Christmas Designer Series Paper.

First, I walk you through what comes in the Paper Pumpkin kit, how to stamp and assemble two different gift tags, and how to put together the food-safe gift boxes (perfect for cookies, candy, or small gifts). I share tips for:

Making the most of your Paper Pumpkin stamp sets
Reinking dry ink pads
Using mini dimensionals and glue dots on delicate die-cuts
Simple gift ideas to tuck inside the boxes

Then we switch gears into scrapbooking! I show you how I build a two-page Christmas layout with:

Patterned paper backgrounds instead of plain cardstock
Easy border placement using a ruler and washi tape
DIY fishtail banner template you can reuse
Gold photo mats that coordinate with the foiling in the Traditions of Christmas paper
A big bold “MERRY” title with die-cut letters
Clusters of wreaths, holly, mistletoe, and bows (including colored Paper Pumpkin bows)

You’ll also get a quick peek at my kittens’ first Christmas scrapbook page that coordinates with this layout, plus a look at my grandchildren opening presents—because what’s Christmas scrapbooking without adorable family photos?

If you love Paper Pumpkin alternatives, Christmas gift packaging, and easy scrapbook page ideas, this one’s for you. 💚❤️
