Quick Faux Window Card with Sparkling Celebrations

One of the best things about the Paper Pumpkin kits is the large community of crafters who share alternative ideas for using the kits in thousands of creative ways. I shared several ideas with the May 2026 Sparkling Celebrations kit in this blog post, and today I’m sharing one more, this time with a faux window effect.

First, I used the blue card base with the string of party lights. I kept this card clean and simple, using the card base and the Celebrate stamp right from the Sparkling Celebrations Paper Pumpkin kit.

The card base has silver foil right in the print, so I didn’t add any other embellishments other than the light bulb die cut.

Next, I made a version with the paper lantern card base. I love these colors together.
