Lakeside Retreat Paper Pumpkin Alternative Fun Fold Cards

April 29, 2026 FranklyStamping Comments 0 Comment

Paper Pumpkin April 2026 Lakeside Retreat Alternative

April 2026 Paper Pumpkin Lakeside Retreat is a nature-inspired card-making kit designed primarily for masculine occasions like Father’s Day and birthdays. It features serene waterside imagery and an earthy color palette, allowing you to create nine handmade cards. When I started looking at this amazing kit, the ideas just kept coming, one right after another. I made the 3 original designed cards and then got started on making alternatives with all of the kit contents. I accidentally received 2 kits so I had plenty of ephemera and card bases and envelopes to play with. This masculine card kit had perfect card bases and ephemera that worked well with the fun fold templates.

I have listed all of the measurements to make the fun fold cards in the downloadable PDF below. If you want additional information, be sure to check out my youtube video below. Be sure to comment and let me know which card is your favorite.

I have included the basic supplies below that I used, however the new products coming in the May 5 Catalog are not able to be linked until the catalog goes live on May 5. The Waterside Retreat Suite Collection is a fantastic collection of products and coordinates well with this Lakeside Retreat kit. Be sure to check it out on May 5. Thanks for looking.
