July My Paper Pumpkin Kit

The My paper pumpkin kit for July arrived Tuesday! It is fun to get something in the mail each month and not know what it is! For the most part I never get anything that I do not already know is coming. Even for Christmas and my birthday do I rarely get a surprise so these are really nice. It's like a Christmas present every month! 

They arrive in pretty orange boxes and this beautiful pool party tissue paper. 

 This months kit is a banner kit! It is adorable! 

You get your picture with directions on how to assemble the kit, 

and all the contents! This one has 2 ink spots! Summer starfruit and pool party, tiny little clothespins, skewers, die cut banners, foam dimensionals, and 3 stamps! This has been the best kit yet I think! 

I really like these stamps. It is nice to have stamps to give a background to different things. 

Now to just figure out what I am going to do with this set. If I had not already had my catalog kick off party I would have used it on my table setting. No birthday's coming up in the family for the near future so I will just have to find something else to use it for. 

Another Sneak Peek item!

To say I am excited about these products is an understatement!  If you have been reading my blog, I have wanted to start a project life album this year. Part of my problems were I wanted to use only SU products so that I could show them on my blog and I am using the album and divided protectors but many other items are not SU. NOW I CAN USE STAMPIN' UP! ITEMS!!  I am super excited about the rotary date stamp and washi tapes. The fact that we can order these new catalog items early and at a bundled discount just makes it that much better!!

Card bouquet

Here is one of the items I used for auction at the quarter auction I participated in this past weekend. It was a card bouquet with 6 handmade cards, an aluminum garden stake made with the big shot and blossom punch, and a free card class for 5 people.  This item did pretty well at the auction and I am planning to make more :)

Altered New testament

I have been really busy this week and have not been great at updating my blog. Not only have I had two classes that I had to prepare for (cards from those will be on here this week!) I have been trying to get ready for a vendor fair/quarter auction this coming weekend.  I have really only done holiday craft shows before so they were mostly Christmas themed items and didn't really know what to make for a spring one. The first thing I had made was the altered jr legal pads , and then I made some of these covered new testament Bibles. I thought they would make cute Easter basket gifts. I used some new and some retired DSP on these, along with saying from the Trust God stamp set.
