10. Using a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock add more washi tape to get a few images to die cut and embellish your card. I used a large blue flower, lemonade, and a small flower.

11. Lastly, add a few Garden Epoxy Dots to the card to finish. (There is one by the lemonade and one inside the large blue flower.)

Paper Pumpkin Possibilities - June 2026 - Bikes & Blooms

Welcome to our Paper Pumpkin Possibilities blog hop!!!  I am so excited to be a part of this team of hoppers sharing alternative designs for each month's Paper Pumpkin kit.  This month's kit is all about the June 2026 "Bikes & Blooms" kit!!  Hopefully what we show will inspire you.  Be sure to hop all the way through to see what this amazing team has come up with!

~*~*~*~*~

~*~*~*~*~

Another super fun kit - certainly elicites feelings of bike riding all day long in the summer months growing up in WI.  Love the kit (as usual) just the way it comes; I decided to change up the blue bike on yellow to make it into a fun gatefold card by trimming it down 1/8" each way and then cutting in half to put 1/2 on each side -

Made a few additional changes - I added the color Lost Lagoon by stamping the Happy Birthday, and the flowers twice, fussy cutting and adding to the basket; plus one on the sentiment. I flagged the end of the green layer and extended it under the sentiment; moved the linen thread bow to the basket, and used the butterfly dies from the die set below.  Then when you open it - 

My base is Lost Lagoon 4 1/4" x 11 scored at 2 3/4" in from each end to create the gatefold.  Inside I used a piece of the yellow based cut to 4" x 5 1/4" and stamped with Lost Lagoon and added a Calypso Coral fussy cut  flower.  Then I finished my envelope to coordinate - 

I hope you've enjoyed this alternative idea.  Don't forget about the Add-On dies for this quarter's kits as they are wonderful -
