I don’t know what Paper Pumpkin Kit this is, but when I had to move a stack (or two) of Paper Pumpkin boxes out of the way recently I decided maybe it was time to catch up on some old kits I hadn’t made yet! It’s quite the challenge! Lots of them I had made some of the cards, or actually one of each of the designs, but didn’t finish the rest of the cards. I made it my project on a rainy day to do one kit after the other and see how many I could get finished. The fun thing about Paper Pumpkin is you just open the box and everything is right there ready to go! You don’t have to think about what to make, unless you want to change it up. The directions are right there, the materials including stamps, ink, and adhesive are right there, and there’s always a video you can watch. You just subscribe to Paper Pumpkin and your kit shows up in your mailbox every month! I say it’s a gift you give yourself!
Everyone seems to like a “messy desk” photo so here is mine while trying to catch up on some older Paper Pumpkin Kits!
Paper Pumpkin Kits are always easy enough for anyone to make, even beginning or Non-crafters! There are usually some pieces you just punch out and adhere to the card or project. An exclusive stamp set comes in every kit, usually with extra stamps you can use or keep for another time. The ink spot (1″ x 1″ square ink pad) can be saved and reinked so you can use it any time. Often there are embellishments like gems or dots or ribbon, whatever goes with the project. Envelopes are included so you can send your cards off right away! Even the boxes are great for storage if you want to keep some. Certain boxes even have a special design which really makes you want to keep them!
Here are the cards I made from several different kits. It was really fun to just sit down to stamp and create without having to think up my own designs and projects. Pure relaxation!
