Paper Pumpkin.

So, I'm on the card kits kick again. I know, I know. Get over it Karen. I can't, just can't. Paper Pumpkin is so much fun!! You don't even have to decide how to coordinate colors, patterns, and inks. You don't have to have all the tools like blocks, dimensionals, and inks. No, you don't sweat over it all. Plus, every month is a surprise. You don't know what you're going to get. Like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates...you never know. You just start a month to month subscription or a prepaid subscription, wait for the 15th of each month (when they mail them out) and create.



Maybe you think to yourself "Oh geez, I'm not a creative person at all." Well don't fret over that little issue. The Paper Pumpkin has instructions that comes in the kit. It explains step by step (with pictures) how to make the kit's cards. Perfect for those self proclaimed non-creative people. NO excuse there.

Then you might tell me I'm not a card maker. I have an answer for that as well. Use them to make layouts. It comes with some pretty pattern paper, die cut elements, 3D embellishments, glue dots and ribbon or string. Use that in a page layout. The beauty of this kit is you make it what you want it to be.

Build up your crafting stash and fun elements to add to cards or pages. It comes with a stamp set to coordinate with the materials. These stamps aren't offered in the catalog so you get exclusive products just from Paper Pumpkin. However, they will coordinate with products in the catalog. Cool right.

I can't afford it. Really?!? 20.00 a month gets you papers, die cuts, embellishments, dimensional (pop dots), glue dots, an acrylic block, stamp set, coordinating ribbon or twine and ink. You can't afford NOT to do it. Plus if you start a month to month subscription right now for 2 months you get 50% off the kits. That is an amazing deal!! Each kit will be 9.98 and that does include the shipping. WOW!!! Then, if you just totally hate, which you won't, you can cancel after the 2 months. No problem! No contract and no obligation to keep it if you do month to month. If you do a prepaid for 3,6 or 12 months you have to pay up front and that will be a little harder to get out of.



This was such an awesome deal that the March box was SOLD OUT! So, if you would like to try it on for size sign up at paperpumpkin.com, new month to month subscription, fill in your info, and the use the code SAVEFIFTY0418. Easy Peasy. When they ask for a demonstrator use Karen Gilson in Scottsville Ky. If I get a group, we can do a paper pumpkin monthly group.

Check it out and sign up. It's an awesome deal right now.

Happy Crafting

Interactive Christmas Card

Image
It's almost that time of year to start getting Christmas cards made and in the mail. I love making a card people will remember. I usually try to keep it simple since I usually have to make 15 cards. Every once in a while I get a wild hair and have to make a doozie just to send out to a certain person that really appreciates the effort I put into it. I decided I wanted to make at least one interactive Christmas card that can hold a gift card. It's like a surprise within a surprise.  It was a challenging card that was inspired by my card making hero Jennifer Mcguire. She is just amazing at techniques and thinking outside of the box. I love her style and creativity.  This is my version. It has a slide out sentiment and it opens like a regular card. The person receiving it would pull on the ribbon and the white card will slide out with a gift card attached to the back.  I made this card using Real Red card stock for the main s...

Hold on to Hope Card

I designed the Hold on to Hope card to show a fun technique using the positive and negative cut outs of dies. This is an inlaid technique and it's simple to do and results in a very impressive look. The stamp set I used was Stampin' Up! Hold on to Hope. It's a new set that will be available in January for purchase. This set has a coordinating die set called Cross of Hope Framelits. The materials: White thick cardstock -cut at 3 1/4' x 4 1/4", a scrap piece of white cardstock to glue on die cut, and a 1/2" strip Black cardstock -cut at 3 1/2" x 4 1/2", a piece cut at 3"x 3" for die cutting, and a 3/4" strip  Emerald Envy cardstock cut at 4 1/4" x 11", Then folded at 5 1/2" to make the card base Yellow cardstock cut at 3"x 3" for die cutting Stampin' Up! stamp set Hold on to Hope Stampin' Up! die set Big Shot die cutter Emerald Envy ink pad Memento Black Tuxedo ink pad Versa Ma...

Kit Snob!!

Image
I've really gotten into one of the all inclusive kits that is featured in the Annual Catalog . This box is amazing for all that comes in it. Have you considered getting one of these kits?  I didn't.  Nope. I have been stamping, doing scrapbook pages, and cards since high school, so I thought I didn't need to get  cards or pre-punched designs. I mean, come on, I could make that with all the paper, stamps and dies that I already have. I was being a total kit snob. I just didn't want to do it. Then, the other day I was trying to come up with a class. I realized, holy cow, I would have to buy paper, stamps, glue, embellishment and the list was getting longer and longer. This also meant the price of the class was getting bigger and bigger $$. What is a new demonstrator to do?  I was starting to stress, and then I saw it.👀 The "Oh Happy Day" all inclusive kit . It had everything (and I do mean everything) plus I would only have to charge my students for the price...
