Check out the ghostly treat box in the photo above.  It's so simple to make with the Pretty Pillow box dies!

The stitched tag is also in the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Look how it latches – the scalloped front slips in behind the tag in front.  I love that I don't need a special way to keep it closed; the tag does it for me!

Check out the other version I made with the fun skeletons on the right?  I fussy cut them from the Cute Halloween paper.

I haven't shared this for awhile so here it is; my favorite cutting template especially for inside a card.  Get 5 pieces from one 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock. If you're making multiples this can save you a lot!

• Happy Valentine’s Day! Do you have a favorite??

  Happy Valentine's Day!  

  I shared this on FB last night and hoped you would to pick a favorite too!  I'm curious what the top pink Stampin' Up! color is….

  Save

  I have a ton of Valentine's swaps I want to share with you too.  Most of these are made by my stamping friends. I cannot give credit to all of them as their post-it or business card was lost as my local customers browsed through them.  

  My friend Susie Wood made this adorable Hello Ladybug card.  She used the Checks & Dots embossing folder on the Red layer. 

  Save

  This next one features the Nuts & Bolts stamp set & is made by Julie Davison.  

  Save

  This cute card lost it's post-it so I cannot give credit.  I love how the panels are cut apart but the Sweet Talk designer paper still shows it's pattern.  

  Save

  This next card was made by Jodi Reinert and features the Love & Happiness bundle seen here.  Love the textures! 

  Save

  This next card is so cute!!  It was also made by my friend Susie Wood. I love the chalkboard effect of stamping on Black with White Craft ink.  Nuts & Bolts is the stamp set & the Gingham embossing folder was used on the background. 

  Save

  Lastly is a sweet card made by Jennifer Cotton.  She used the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Sweet Conversations stamp set.

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

  February 12, 2022

  ---

  Save

  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:

  Save

  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:

  Top reasons to get our Paper Pumpkin kits:

  1. You are in full control over which kits you receive. You can skip a month at any time! 
  2. There are videos for each month's kit!  See them all here. 
  3. You'll get over 10 bonus/alternative projects from me each month!
  4. Each kit comes with an ink spot & a stamp set. 
  5. The kits are all inclusive; nothing else is needed to create the projects but a scissors. 
  6. There are FB groups where people share alternative projects each month. 
  7. The kits are perfect for quick projects with no prep or extra work. 
  8. It's a fun surprise each month!  But they share hints before the kit mails too!

  Here's the bonus project I created with the Hugs & Kisses February kit.  It's so fun to use the elements in the kit to create something fun & different!
