This all-inclusive kit was originally designed to create eight festive goody boxes (four each of two designs), complete with coordinating tags, greenery elements, linen thread, and classic red embellishments. The traditional holiday color palette of Basic Beige, Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow, and Old Olive gives it that timeless Christmas feel we all adore. 🎄❤️

First, I assembled the boxes exactly as instructed. They are perfect for gift cards, small treats, table favors, or thoughtful holiday surprises.

Then I asked myself . . . how far can I stretch this kit?

Using the leftover tags, decorative greenery, and embellishments . . . along with Designer Series Paper and cardstock scraps from my Keeping Traditions Scrapbooking Workshop Kit . . . I transformed the remaining pieces into two double-page scrapbook layouts. 📸✨

The layered tags make beautiful focal points, the greenery adds natural movement across the pages, and the rich red accents pull everything together for a cohesive holiday layout. It’s a wonderful reminder that Paper Pumpkin is not just for card makers . . . it’s an incredible resource for scrapbookers and memory keepers, too.

If you’ve ever wondered whether Paper Pumpkin can work for scrapbooking, the answer is absolutely YES. 🙌

I absolutely love how these pages came together . . . the rich neutrals, pops of Cherry Cobbler ❤️, layers of greenery 🌿, and that touch of gold foil ✨ give them such a warm, elegant Christmas feel. And those tag elements? They make PERFECT focal points for layouts.

This is a great example of how Paper Pumpkin isn’t just cards or boxes . . . it’s a full creative experience that works beautifully for memory keeping too. 💛

One kit . . . multiple projects . . . and plenty of room for holiday photos and journaling. 🎁📖

These double-page layouts make my crafty heart so happy. 🥰✂️

I created these pages using the leftover DSP and cardstock scraps from the Keeping Traditions Scrapbooking Workshop Kit . . . and honestly, this is one of my favorite ways to create. ❤️ Nothing fancy, nothing extra . . . just smart layering, intentional placement, and letting the scraps shine. ✨

I love how the traditional Christmas colors, cozy patterns, and sweet tag details came together to create layouts that feel warm, classic, and full of holiday joy. 🎄📸 It’s proof that you don’t need brand-new supplies every time . . . sometimes the magic is already sitting on your desk. 😉

These pages have plenty of space for photos, journaling, and those meaningful holiday memories we never want to forget. 💭💚

If you’re a scrapbooker who saves all the scraps (🙋‍♀️ guilty!), let this be your sign to pull them out and create something beautiful with what you already have. ✂️✨

Paper Pumpkin continues to be one of my favorite ways to craft because it combines convenience, coordination, and creativity all in one beautiful orange box. 💛 Whether you are a beginner looking for a simple, all-inclusive project or an experienced crafter who loves finding alternative ways to stretch your supplies, these kits truly offer something for everyone.

I Made This Myself Monday is all about showing you how to think beyond the instructions, use what you already have, and create meaningful projects that preserve your memories in a way that feels achievable . . . not overwhelming.
