Missing in Action!

My stamping business was temporarily interrupted by the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics!   The photo above shows that I WAS stamping - but I was mostly working on past Paper Pumpkin kits while watching the Olympics.  I have a Paper Pumpkin subscription - and I love the projects inside (especially the EXCLUSIVE stamp set and stamping spot.)  But I always wait to see what alternate projects other people come up with - and then I never seem to actually make the kit!  I am going to TRY to keep up with the kits this year, as well as complete past kits that have been piling up.

I started with making the Christmas Card kits - trying to build up my stash so I can be one of those people who send cards out right after Thanksgiving - instead of waiting until the last minute - like I usually do!  Below are some of the kits that I put together - sometimes making them following the directions and sometimes changing them up a bit.

 Below are some cards that I made with extra supplies I had lying around.

All together I have made over 50 Christmas cards!  And I still have 10 months until Christmas to make a bunch more! 

If you would like more information about the Paper Pumpkin subscription kits CLICK HERE.

If you would like to get started on making YOUR Christmas cards - I would be happy to cut all the card stock and designer paper pieces - all you would need to do is stamp and assemble.  Just EMAIL ME to set up an appointment for a free consultation.

There are only a few days left to earn SALE-A-BRATION items with a qualifying purchase.  Visit my ONLINE STORE to see the products you could earn for FREE.

It's Paper Pumpkin Time!

This week I was filming a video to post on Facebook for my virtual catalog launch.  I was showing December's Paper Pumpkin kit - and after I was finished showing everyone all the bits and pieces - I just had to put this kit together.  It was a super quick and easy kit - and I made the cards as they were designed - except I gave the Koala the heart to hold and the Red Panda is holding the flowers.

This kit contained 12 cards - great for birthdays, Thinking of You, and Get Well wishes.  I think the little critter holding a heart would be perfect for Valentine's Day, too.  Now I will be ready again - to start sending cards out to friends and family.  I got behind when I started sending out Christmas cards, and then I got further behind when I started making projects with new products from the Jan-June 2021 mini catalog and Sale-a-Bration brochure.

Below are close ups of each card.

Sign up by January 10th - that's Sunday - to receive the Januay kit, "Sending Hearts."  This kit contains supplies to create 8 cards - 4 each of 2 designs.  CLICK HERE to sign up for a month to month subscription.  Only $22 a month, SHIPPING INCLUDED.  You may cancel at any time.

This month also has an add on kit - in case you are looking for mini treat boxes for Valentine's Day.  The add on kit is called, Little Love Boxes and the price is $8.  CLICK HERE to see the add on kit - and other past kits and refills that are only availabe to current Paper Pumpkin subscribers.

You may want to consider purchasing a pre-paid subscription to Paper Pumpkin.  With a 3, 6, or 12 month subscription, you could earn Free Sale-a-Bration products.

These are the cards that I made using June's Paper Pumpkin kit.  I followed the directions that came in the kit and they went together really quickly and turned out super cute.  

When I was finished making the cards, I filled the Paper Pumpkin box with yellow goodies, wrote a note in one of the cards, and sent it off to a friend who is recovering from surgery.  She called to thank me - and said the package arrived on a day when she really needed it. That was the point of June's kit: to #sharesunshine.

Today is the last day to subscribe for July's kit - which includes enough supplies to create nine postcards and coordinating envelopes, as well as nine die-cut tealight bags.  You can also purchase an "add on" which contains 24 preprinted card bases and coordinating envelopes.  There will be plenty of leftover supplies in the kit to make cards using the "add on."  Click on either image to purchase.
