October Paper Pumpkin

When you picture a peaceful Christmas, what comes to mind? Do you see snow outside your window, softly swirling through the sky? A tree trimmed with tinsel, a fire crackling nearby? Maybe you’re dreaming of decorating a holly jolly gingerbread house. Can you catch a whiff of Christmas cookies wafting through the air?

Whatever it is you think about when Christmas comes to town, picture a peaceful Christmas with the Peaceful Christmas Paper Pumpkin Kit! This glimmering and gleaming kit is your creative kickstart to Christmas cardmaking. With sprinkles of snow, shimmering silver skies, and heartwarming holiday wishes, you’ll have enough elements and embellishments to create 10 Christmas cards and coordinating envelopes.

Speaking of coordination, make even more Christmas magic with Peaceful Place products! Our stunning Peaceful Place Suite Collection (item 156277) pairs perfectly with the kit’s components. Brew a cup of cocoa, snuggle up with a soft blanket, and prepare for a cozy craft night in!

Melissa's back ~ more PP news...

Once gain I am reminded why I LOVE Paper Pumpkin!  Melissa's September 5 post.

I received the Box of Sunshine LAST summer, and apparently put it away for future enjoyment.

I have been on a kick this year to challenge myself to USE UP my most treasured Designer Series Papers and embellishments.  Because, of course, every year Stampin’ Up comes out with NEW DSP that I fall in love with all over again.

So when I found this old Paper Pumpkin kit, all ready to be assembled, I jumped it.  LO AND BEHOLD….the kit came with SO MANY EXTRA embellishments that I was able to dig into my DSP stash and my ribbon/sequin drawer and VOILA….I made 14 EXTRA cards (pic 2) on top of the 8 from the original kit (pic 1).

If you have not experienced the sheer delight of Paper Pumpkin, please give it a try.  You will be delighted!  I am delighted every single month!

Here’s to your Health,

 Melissa

From Melissa ~ Over the past few weekends, I have taken advantage of the rainy afternoons to catch up on my Paper Pumpkin boxes.  With each monthly box I am reminded by ALL NEW reasons why I LOVE Paper Pumpkin!  I did the Hope Box last weekend, and filled the BOX with a variety of cards I have made over the past few months.  I then used the BOX as the mailing container to send these magical pieces of card stock, ribbon, sequins and ink converted magically to tokens of Hope and Love.   A friend had a friend in need, and this Hope Box of cards answered the call.  SO Pretty, SO cheerful, SO fun to make and more fun to give away.  If you have thought about joining Paper Pumpkin, take the leap; you will enjoy every moment of it.  MLB

The Adventure Begins

That's the title of the JUNE PAPER PUMPKIN that I took with me when we left for a weekend at our cottage in Shipman, VA.  Shipman is off of Rt. 29 half way between Charlottesville and Lynchburg in the Blue Ridge Mountains.  I grabbed my latest, June, Paper Pumpkin box as I walked out the door and sat down later that day to assemble.  As I hadn't looked in the box at home I was pleasantly surprised to see the three designs (four cards of each design) and even more surprised to recognize that the surrounding scenery looked very much like the cards that I was creating.    What a treat!!!!
