Paper Pumpkin November Kit

  • Paper Pumpkin subscriptions make great holiday gifts
  • Order your new Stamparatus Bag December 5

Paper Pumpkin November Kit 


I wanted to show you the wonderful November Paper Pumpkin kit that arrived in my mailbox yesterday.  I'm packing it to take along to work on over Thanksgiving.  The special plaid box is going to make a great gift package and I love the cards included in this month's kit.  There are 2 card designs with this kit.  

Each month, in addition to the kit arriving with printed instructions, Stampin' Up! creates a video that helps you quickly assemble your kit.  All items are prepped and ready to be stamped and assembled.  Your kit includes a stamp set and ink pad along with your materials.  This kit included 10 cards you can put together in no time.         

  




These plaid cards as so on-trend!  What a great way to relax over the holidays and have a start on your holiday greeting cards.


Paper Pumpkin is a perfect gift   


Paper Pumpkin subscription kits are designed for anyone who want to quickly and easily achieve beautiful handcrafted projects.  You'll get a new project every month.  If you've been struggling with what to get your friend who has everything, Paper Pumpkin is a great gift idea.  Get one for yourself.  And get another subscription for your friend.  Then make a date to put your kits together each month.  Its a great way to stay connected without a lot of prep time.  Take your kits to a local coffee shop.  Or make them right in your dining room.  And enjoy a relaxing time together assembling your kits.

Each kit is pre-designed, pre-cut paper crafting projects.  Everything is ready to stamp, assemble, and give.  Stampin' Up! offers 3 month, 6 month and 12 month prepaid subscriptions.  You can order a prepaid subscription from my online store.  You'll receive a code via e-mail to redeem your subscription at PaperPumpkin.com.

   

Occasions & Sale-A-Bration Catalogs   


If you've purchased from me in the past 6 months, you'll receive copies of the Stampin' Up! Occasions catalog and the Sale-A-Bration catalogs in late December.  If you need a copy of these catalogs, contact me by November 28th so I have time to add you to my catalog mailing list.

Two looks using the Stampin' Up! Peaceful Place Stamp Set

  • Stampin' Up Peaceful Place
  • Which stamp sets will carry over from the Holiday catalog?
  • Join us for this weekend's Holiday card class

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Place Scenes 


Today I'm feeling lazy.  So instead of creating a couple of cards with the new stamp sets from the Occasions Catalog  I received last week at Stampin' Up!'s On Stage event, I decided to show you a couple more of the beautiful swap cards I received.        

  



Both cards use the Peaceful Place stamp set.  I love how the two cards show how differently this set can look depending on the treatment used.  

   
Peaceful Place Stamp Set creates a Fall theme
 with a sponged background and Gold Foil Leaf


This card has a beautifully sponged background in fall colors.  Then the image is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black.  The water is highlighted with Wink of Stella to provide a shimmer to the scene.  To the side of the sentiment is a die cut gold foil leaf, adding to the over all fall look of this card.  Its a beautiful card to use for a fall holiday or to stay in touch with loved ones over Thanksgiving. 
   


Monochromatic Card idea
Peaceful Place stamp set embossed in Black on Smoky Slate Cardstock


This same Peaceful Place stamp set, embossed in Black on Smoky Slate,  and accented with 1/2" Black Satin Ribbon and Black Sequins from the Metallic Sequins Assortment takes on a very classy look.  Perfect for a male relative, or a friend who has suffered a setback of some sort.  This monochromatic card uses Smoky Slate, Basic Black and Basic Gray Cardstock

Both cards are stunning in their own way.  I wish I could give attribution to the lovely designers of these cards, but neither included contact information about themselves. 

    
Take a look at other sets and dies available in the Stampin' Up! Main Catalog and the Holiday Catalog,  Then, order your holiday stamp sets and dies soon.  Several Fall and Christmas sets and accessories have already sold out,  so you'll want to place your order while your favorites are still available.

Also, during On Stage last week, we learn which items from the Holiday catalogs will carry over, which means your investment in these sets will extend beyond the holidays.  There may be more carry overs, but we know about these for certain.

Seats remain for Holiday Cards Class Nov 18   


Join us for a crafty afternoon of making holiday cards this Sunday afternoon, November 18.  You'll leave with these 6 cards to use as samples to create more cards for your ever-growing list of friends and family.  As a crafter you know they won't settle for a Facebook Messenger Wave, a few holiday emojis at the end of a text, or a store bought card.  They know you're a crafter and they are looking for a card from you they'll be proud to display this holiday season.

Do it the easy way.  Come make cards where all the cutting is done for you.  Class is Sunday afternoon, November 18.  You'll leave with these lovely samples to use to create more cards on your own.

   





We're using a variety of Fall and Holiday stamp sets, including the Snowfall dies from the limited-time Snowflake Showcase sets available to customers November 1- 30th.   

You'll get a chance to try several different products, punches, dies and techniques to add to your crafting skills.    

You'll love creating these cards and then sharing your creativity with others when you mail these wonderful Fall and Holiday cards.

For a closer look at each project, take a look  at the Meetup Photo album for this class, and register for the class while you're visiting my Meetup registration site.  The photo album includes individual photos of each project we'll make.
