Great New Deal for those wanting to try Paper Pumpkin!

My Paper Pumpkin is a great little crafty getaway and for a limited time they are making the deal even sweeter.  

Each month you receive in the mail a gorgeous little orange box filled with everything you need to make that months project. Projects vary from cards, to brag books, and gift type items so far. It is a great little surprise each month and perfect for those that have little time to work on a project and do not want to purchase tons of supplies. It also makes a nice gift for kids, and retirees. If you do not want it for yourself, I am sure you can think of someone, a grandchild, niece, or someone in a retirement/nursing home that would LOVE to get this surprise mailed directly to them each month! 

And now through Feb 10th you can get a free set of In Color Markers FREE when you sign up for a new membership!

Quick Christmas Card

My next round of christmas card classes is coming up and here is one of the cards we will be making. 

 

This picture did not look so blurry when I looked at it before uploading?? Sorry about that

 This card uses the Delightful Dozen stamp set, silver glimmer paper, season of style dsp stack, and some cherry cobbler cardstock for the base. THAT'S IT! Simple as can be and all the credit goes to Valerie Moody.   I think the only thing I changed was my base color because I was out of gumball green and my glimmer paper because I liked it with the silver. 

Photopolymer Thank you Set

Not sure how I missed doing a blog post about this. I really like the new photopoly stamps but I have yet to buy any of them myself. (though I have borrowed the bombs away one, love it!) When I saw this one I knew I HAD to have it. I make thank you cards quite often. I like to send them to customers when they place an order or just to friends and things for things they do. It seems like I am using the same sentiments over and over on my thank you cards and I needed some different ones, so when I saw this I think my order went in the same hour!

I will be sure to make some cards using this set as soon as I get it.

This set is only $13.95 and you get all the included images. These would be great for other direct sales consultants to stamp on your order forms, postcards and more. 

August "Best of" set is here!!!

Best of Halloween!!! I am really excited for this set because I really didn't like the sets in the new catalog. They are nice, but just not what I was looking for (except the tag set!) love it! I missed out on buying the haunted house set last time, and was glad to see one in this set!

Best of halloween set item #134381 $14.95 

and remember to save your proof of purchase sticker to earn a free stamp set!!

You can order this product and more at my online store

Digital Download day!

I do not buy many of the digital downloads that get put out, but on occasion one comes out that I think I will use or that I have not bought the stamp yet for and decide to go ahead and get the digital version. There are actually a couple in this weeks set that I will use. I love the gingham paper and the digital version will be so handy to have and goes great with the Kind & Cozy brush set. (can't believe I have not bought the actual stamp yet)

Well enough of my talking, you want to see the downloads.


First is this About Blossoms digital Kit. These kits are FABULOUS!! Even if you are not into digital scrapbooking (and if you aren't why not? Have you tried it? You can make gorgeous pages and not make any mess at all! Plus MDS+ is so cheap now, that you should at least give it a shot once) Anyway, as I was saying before I sidetracked myself, these kits can also be used to make wonderful quick cards. You can design them, print them or have them printed. Really great for if you have multiples you want to do like at Christmas, or for weddings.

I LOVE this stamp set. Especially paired with the gingham papers. I would have loved to use both on homemade jam this year but unfortunately we didn't end up with enough berries to make any. I think the kids ate more then they put in the bowl.

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. 

July Photopolymer Set

The newest photopolymer set "Sail away" is here! 

I can see so many cute possibilities with this stamp set!
