We will be mixing and matching the past Paper Pumpkin kit (currently on sale) from January 2022 with the Ready to Ride suite. I did put one pink heart in there for good measure!
There are 5 cards as part of this tutorial and a cute coordinating tag idea. I will also be sneaking in a few stamps from the January 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit.

Here is the card tutorial:
CARD 1 of 5
MEASUREMENTS:
- CARD BASE: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" score: 4-1/4" (Soft Suede Cardstock)
- FINE SHIMMER GOLD Layer: 4-3/16 x 5-7/16"
- 1 XOXO Heart from Paper Pumpkin Card Base (Very Vanilla/Gold)
- Piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock to stamp motorcycle 2 x 4"
- Insert: 4 x 5/14" (Very Vanilla)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Emboss Fine Shimmer piece with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder in the (full size) Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine.
Stamp motorcycle (Legendary Ride stamp set) in VersaMark ink on the Very Vanilla piece. Sprinkle gold heat emboss powder. Heat set with heat tool. I recommend using the anti static tool before stamping so the powder only sticks to the ink for a clean emboss.
Die cut the motorcycle with the die from Legendary Ride bundle.
Glue the embossing shimmer paper to card base. Place heart on dimensionals and add to card. Place motorcycle on dimensionals under the XOXO.
Glue your insert inside the card.
CARD 2 of 5
MEASUREMENTS:
- CARD BASE: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" score: 4-1/4" (Soft Suede Cardstock)
- FINE SHIMMER GOLD Layer: 3-5/ x 5-1/2"
- 1 XOXO Heart from Paper Pumpkin Card Base (Flirty Flamingo/Gold)
- 1 White Die Cut Heart from Paper Pumpkin Kit
- Insert: 4 x 5/14" (Very Vanilla)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Use the anti static tool from Embossing Additions Tool Kit on the white die cut heart prior to stamping to keep the powder from sticking to anything except the ink.
Stamp small motorcycle from Legendary Ride stamp set center on the heart and stamp love you just beneath it in VersaMark ink. The Love You stamp is from the past Paper Pumpkin kit. Sprinkle with gold heat emboss powder. Heat set with heat tool.
Emboss Fine Shimmer Gold Paper with Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder with the full size Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine.
Adhere the shimmer paper first. Pop the pink heart up on dimensionals and add to card. Place white die cut heart on dimensionals and add to center of the big heart. (Both hearts from the past Paper Pumpkin kit).
Glue insert inside of the card.
CARD 3 of 5
MEASUREMENTS:
- CARD BASE: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" score: 4-1/4" (Basic Black Cardstock)
- 4 Pumpkin Pie Squares: 1-7/8"
- 2 DSP Squares (Soft Suede clothes/ boot pattern): 1-3/4"
- 2 XOXO Squares (from the Kisses & Hugs Treat Box deconstructed): 1-3/4"
- 2 Gold Hearts (use scrap Very Vanilla pieces for this and fussy cut) 1" squares or so
- 1 strip of Very Vanilla Cardstock: 1-3/8 x 4-1/8"
- 1 strip of Pumpkin Pie Pattern DSP: 1 x 4"
- Piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock to stamp motorcycle 2 x 4"
- Insert: 4 x 5/14" (Very Vanilla)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Use the anti static tool from Embossing Additions Kit on scrap pieces of Very Vanilla cardstock to heat emboss two solid heart stamps (from the kit) and then stamp the large motorcycle as well and heat emboss in gold. Die cut the motorcycle. Fussy cut the hearts when they cool down. NOTE: If you don't want to fussy cut anything you can stamp hearts directly onto the DSP and heat set that way.
Assemble your squares. The DSP and XOXO each get glued to a Pumpkin Pie piece. Once your squares are all glued together then place them in the four corners of the card. Take the Very Vanilla strip and Pumpkin Pie pattern DSP and glue those layers together. This will get placed in the center between the 4 squares. Glue all of these layers to the card base.
Stamp "I love you" from the January 2023 Paper Pumpkin kit stamp set in black ink onto the DSP in the center of card just below center.
Place motorcycle on dimensionals and place center on card just above stamped sentiment. Place gold hearts above and below the motorcycle on the center strip.
Glue inside panel.
CARD 4 of 5
MEASUREMENTS:
- CARD BASE: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" score: 4-1/4" (Basic Gray Cardstock)
- BASIC WHITE LAYER: 3-3/4 x 5-1/2"
- READY TO RIDE DSP LAYER: (Black and Gray Floral Pattern) 2-1/2 x 5-1/2"
- 1 White Heart Die Cut (from PAST Paper Pumpkin Kit)
- White Twine (About 20")
- 3 Brushed Metallic Dots in Gold
INSTRUCTIONS:
Like our previous card, do each of the heat embossing steps with the small motorcycle on the white die cut heart with two changes: switch to black heat embossing powder and change the sentiment stamp to "friend." Heat set with heat tool. Set aside.
Stamp "You are Legendary" from the Legendary Ride stamp set on the bottom center of the Basic White panel in VersaMark and also heat emboss that in black.
Glue white panel to card base centered. Wrap the twine 3 times around the DSP layer and glue to card.
Pop up the die cut heart on dimensionals and add over the twine and DSP center of the card.
Add 3 gold embellishments above the heart.
Glue inside panel.
CARD 5 of 5
MEASUREMENTS:
- CARD BASE: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" score: 4-1/4" (Basic Gray Cardstock)
- 4 Basic Black Squares: 1-7/8"
- 4 DSP Squares (Bolt pattern black/gray): 1-1/2"
- 1 strip of READY TO RIDE DSP (Tire Pattern black/gray): 1-1/2 x 4-1/4"
- 1 DSP Square of the Motorcycle Rider
- 1 Basic White Piece for the Motorcycle Rider Image: 3 x 3-1/4"
- 1 Basic White Rectangle (for sentiment): 7/8 x 3-1/4"
- 4 Die Cut Wrenches
- Insert: 4 x 5/14" (Basic White)
INSTRUCTIONS:
If you would like to add shine to your Basic Black squares then add VersaMark ink around the edges of all 4 squares and coat with CLEAR heat emboss powder. Heat set all the way around each square.
Assemble your squares with the DSP squares once the heat embossing is cool.
This layout is very similar to the card above. Place the squares in the 4 corners and the tire tracks DSP strip down the center of the card.
Mount the motorcycle DSP image to the white layer. Glue to card.
Stamp "You are Legendary" in VersaMark on the sentiment piece. Stamp 4 wrenches in VersaMark. Sprinkle all with SILVER heat emboss powder and heat set.
Die cut the wrenches when they are cool.
Add the sentiment above the image, centered.
Place two wrenches top left and two wrenches bottom right of the motorcycle rider with glue dots. I crossed them slightly.
Glue inside panel.
MAKING A TAG FOR THE KISSES & HUGS TREAT BOXES
Simply cut out a tag using the Tailored Tags (I used the smallest of the tags dies) and cut with Ready to Ride DSP. Stamp small motorcycle in VersaMark and heat set in the gold powder. Die cut with coordinating die from the Legendary Ride bundle.
Stamp "To My Valentine" from this year's Paper Pumpkin Stamp Set (January 2023 kit) in Black ink on the top right of the tag. Add the motorcycle on dimensionals to the bottom left of tag. Use the Pumpkin Pie twine from the trio of twin pack with one the Kisses & Hugs Treat Boxes. Tie Closed! Now you have a treat box to match your card for your valentine or galentine!
