Surprise! There’s an extra FREE stamp set in March’s ‘Beyond the Horizon’ kit!


The Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit for March includes watercolor prints and designs inspired by the beautiful nature around us to create nine cards and coordinating envelopes. And paper pieces that perfectly coordinate with the amazing New Horizons Suite Collection seen here in the January–June 2022 Mini Catalog.

Don’t forget the extra FREE stamp set in March (yes—that’s two stamp sets in one kit!) as our way of saying THANK YOU to all of our wonderful Paper Pumpkin subscribers.

Details on this kit: 

  • This month’s kit contains enough elements to create 9 cards—3 each of 3 designs—and 9 coordinating envelopes. This all-inclusive kit includes printed card bases, die-cut paper pieces, embellishments, adhesive, and more!
  • The Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit includes a Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin’ Spot!
  • This kit’s stamp set is perfect for any occasion. With sentiments that say “thanks”, “hello”, “thinking of you,” and so many more, you’ll be able to use this stamp set year round.
  • And don't forget; this month’s kit comes with a BONUS stamp set for FREE! *value of $18

There will be a change in Paper Pumpkin pricing going forward.  Here's what Stampin' Up! has recently stated:

Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit. On 1 March 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price. 

But, there is a way to get the current prices for Paper Pumpkin and save money going forward.  Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required.

So here's my suggestion for you:

Purchase a pre-paid subscription in February for 3 month, 6 months, or 12 months and get it at the current lower price for that entire time period! Go here to order yours.

Here's the pricing through February:

Plus with a pre-paid subscription you can earn free Sale-a-Bration choices at the same time.  It's a WIN WIN choice! 

And besides the free Sale-a-Bration choice you'll also receive free gifts (Gingham embossing folder & a calendar kit!) from me with your online order in February. See details below. 

Watch this short video to see what is included in each kit:

  • Update on our move to Bismarck, ND


    If you haven’t watched my recent videos you may not know that we have moved from Minot, ND to Bismarck, ND this month. It’s been a super busy time of downsizing, selling excess, packing and moving.

    Why did we move? Well, there are many reasons but mostly my husband retired and we moved to be closer to our son and other family. It was very difficult to leave our beautiful home but we will love our new home too. Here’s a picture of my office/craft room before I was able to unpack. I’ll share new photos once I’m settled.

    In that back doorway is a walk in closet; that will help with storage! I did find a nice L shaped desk and hope to get that set up today; then I can really set up my room.

    This is why I’ve been missing in action lately; it’s hard to do both stamping/business and moving/getting settled. So I’m taking a bit of a break in August. Have patience with me; I’ll be back to blogging and videos soon!

  • Stunning Crossover Fun-fold card with Lily of the Valley


    This pretty card was made at my July card clubs. It has an elegant feel to it with the mostly white color combo.

    My colors here are White with Hydrangea Hue and Granny Apple Green. I colored the Lily of the Valley die-cuts with both Blends markers and tried the new Shimmer Brushes too. The gorgeous textured layers are made with the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder; it’s back in stock now! See it here.

    Look closely at the layers in my photo above and note how the upper left piece tucks under the right lower piece. That’s why it’s called a crossover fold; it actually locks together to lay mostly flat. You can see how it’s made in the video below.

    I gave my club gals a choice of using the Barely Blush or the Hydrangea hue colors. Which would you choose?

    Besides the video I also made a free project sheet for you with measurements and step by step directions. Click here to print or download it.

    The Lily of the Valley bundle is so pretty; I’m sure you’ve been seeing samples with it everywhere. See it here online.

    One piece of White 8 1/2″ X 11″ card stock is needed for the card base and the other layers needed for this card but it’s well worth it!

    Below is the video for this fun fold card and one more too. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel when you’re there.
