Paper Pumpkin Samples - November 2017 - Back in Plaid

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  Just a quick share of all the projects I designed off this month's Paper Pumpkin.  My subscriber sheet with instructions for these projects went out today and I'm looking forward to finishing off my own stockings on Family Craft Day on Friday!


This it the project that came with the kit. You received enough product to make ten stockings and twenty additional tags.  The ink spot was Dapper Denim and the stamp set coordinated with the November kit but was more image themed than wording!  I loved it, especially the "Joy" saying and the tree!  These stockings fit gift cards and our 2 x 8 cello bags filled with treats.  We are using ours for teacher gifts, neighbor gifts, and for Bingo night at the VA in December with the Girl Scouts!

Here are the additional uses I came up with and the card ideas I had.  Some worked and some didn't.  I am often asked what happens to my "failures" and so I posted one of them here today because someone might actually have a good idea inspired by my attempt and I'd love to see something like this work!

What I think worked....







What I think will work for someone that isn't me....  I really wanted the brick look with the ink spots to work and mine didn't.  It just got busier and busier.  It definitely "snowed" though....


I hope you have a lovely holiday with your families and all those that you are grateful for.  Thank you all for putting art out into the world and practicing kindness during this season and all days of the year.  The impact of taking time to make something for another person has ripples and we cannot have enough positive ripples out there!  I look forward to kicking off my 25 Days of December starting December 1st. Until then, thank you for all that you are and all that you do!



Paper Pumpkin is creativity in a box.  It costs $19.95 plus tax and ships to your mailbox once a month.  It contains everything you need for your own creative escape.  Besides the instructions and pieces for the cards or project, it also contains ink and photopolymer stamps and usually the adhesive you need as well.  My subscribers will also get a project sheet with tips and additional ideas and instructions that they can make with the supplies in the kits and sometimes some supplemental supplies.  Plus I try to send one of the alternative ideas out to everyone in the mail so you get two fun surprises in the mail each month!  Sign up by the 10th of the month to get that month's kit! 

There are two ways to sign up.  
Subscribers can also have access to all my past project sheets!
