If you want a bargain on the Last-Chance Retiring List, check out this Darling Label Punch Box Bargain! If it is still available when you read this, you can get this $45.00 product for only $6.75!! That makes it worthwhile just to get the pretty tin it all comes in!

The Darling Label Punch Box is on page 94 in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. It comes with a stamp set to make labels to add to cards or gifts and comes with the punch to punch them out! You also get a clear block for the stamps and two ink spots. If you wanted a gift for a crafter or potential crafter, you could even add some cardstock or notecards, maybe some adhesive, and you’ll have a great gift that the recipient can really get some good use out of!

The tin itself is 8″ x 8″ x 3″ and the colors are Gold, Grapefruit Grove, and Night of Navy. Tie a ribbon around it for a gift and it will be perfect! Or just treat yourself! At that price, you can get several if they are still available.

Look What’s Coming in May With Paper Pumpkin!

Paper Pumpkin May 2020 White ad Info

Look What’s Coming in May With Paper Pumpkin! I don’t really know exactly what hints this photo provides for the May Paper Pumpkin Kit except for revealing the new In Colors, coming in the next Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog, but it sure has my attention! I can’t wait to see the kit!

JOIN PAPER PUMPKIN!

If you are not familiar, Stampin’ Up! In Colors are the trendiest colors that Stampin’ Up! adds every year to its collection for two years. The oldest In Colors go out and the new ones come in! This ensures that we always have the most current, trending colors to use in our cards and projects. We are always up-to-date!

We don’t know yet what the new In Colors will be (except for a hint in the early released Ornate Garden Suite!) so the May Paper Pumpkin Kit will be the big reveal! Paper Pumpkin subscribers will be the first to get to PLAY with the new In Colors even before Demonstrators can begin preordering products from the new Annual Catalog in May!

About the May Kit

A Kit In Color

Kit contains supplies for 12 cards and envelopes
8 cards are traditional size
Card size: 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″
Envelope size: 4-1/2″ x 5-3/4″

4 cards are notecard size
Notecard size: 5″ x 3-1/2″
Envelope size: 5-1/8″ x 3-5/8″

Coordinating Colors: Four NEW In Colors plus Purple Posy from the 2019–2021 In Color collection. (The new In Colors will be introduced on April 24.)

I think this is one of those kits you don’t want to miss! Even for past subscribers, this might be the time to reactivate your subscription, at least to get this kit! If you are new, this will be an extra-special kit! And with your first kit, you will receive an acrylic Paper Pumpkin block on which to mount the stamps in your kit. Everything you need will be included in your kit, so if you have no craft supplies, no worries!

Although the deadline for subscribing to Paper Pumpkin is May 10, 2020, it would be a good idea to go ahead and subscribe NOW! There is always the possibility the kits could sell out closer to the date and always the possibility that if you don’t subscribe right now, you will forget! Also, once you are a subscriber, you can purchase any Past Kits or Refills that are available in the Stampin’ Up! Online Store. That inventory just depends on what is leftover and how quickly it gets purchased.

Instead of subscribing by the month, if you prefer and are putting in a Stampin’ Up! order, you can add a Prepaid Subscription to your Stampin’ Up! order for whatever time period you like. You will receive an email from Stampin’ Up! right after your order which will have a special code in it and will tell you how to set up your Paper Pumpkin account and how to add that code so you receive your kits. You must do that before the 10th of the month to get that month’s kit. So if you order a Prepaid Kit today, you must set up everything by May 10th to get that kit.

Experienced stampers enjoy getting a kit all ready to go and sometimes even like making alternative projects with some of their own stamping supplies. Whatever you like to do!

Last fall Stampin’ Up! even gave us ideas for turning the BOX into a haunted house! I look at Paper Pumpkin as a fun gift I give myself that I look forward to every month!

Paper Pumpkin January 2020 Valentine Treat Envelopes

Paper Pumpkin January 2020 Valentine Treat Holders
Images © Stampin’ Up! 2020

Yesterday when I unexpectedly got an appointment I wanted for that very afternoon, I remembered I hadn’t made the Valentine treat packages in my January 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit. Since this office group enjoys my occasional holiday treats, I hurried and made up the kit! With 20 treat bags and even 10 mini cards and envelopes, I had plenty for everyone.

The envelopes came already printed with a design in the bottom corner, front and back, so that was done. I just had to make the tags to tie on to the envelope flap and stamp and decorate the front of the mini cards. The greetings were easy to stamp, and the hearts, bees and tags were all die cuts in the kit. It was fun putting on the sequins. Everything is included in these Paper Pumpkin kits!

We are past the time for ordering this kit. However, if you are or become a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, you could order the Refill for this kit in the Stampin’ Up! Online Store. You wouldn’t get the stamp set or ink spot, but you would get all the materials and you would have to substitute some other stamps for the greetings.

Better yet, sign up for the March 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit by at least March 10th, if not sooner. It’s going to be a cute one! I can tell from the ad and the box! Yes, that is the actual box on the right side of this ad! I just love the colors!

If you are putting in a Stampin’ Up! order, you can add a Prepaid Subscription and possibly earn a FREE Sale-A-Bration product. Otherwise, you can just sign up for the monthly subscription. If you are already a subscriber and want to get the benefits of a Prepaid subscription, just purchase the Prepaid and add the code that they send you to your account. Paper Pumpkin will keep track of things and send out the kits you prepaid for and then resume your monthly subscription. It really does work out fine! I’ve done it!

Give yourself the gift of Paper Pumpkin! Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, so there’s your reason!! Not that you need a reason, but I believe in “self-care” (and self-presents on holidays! LOL!).

No risk, no obligation! Get one kit and stop….pause your subscription for a month or two if life gets too busy…or cancel at any time. Just make changes before the 10th of any month in your account. Try Paper Pumpkin!

Making Paper Pumpkin Christmas Tags After Christmas!

Leave a reply
Paper Pumpkin November 2019 Christmas Tags

It’s okay to make Paper Pumpkin Christmas Tags AFTER Christmas! These are from the November 2019 Paper Pumpkin Kit and I just didn’t get to them before Christmas.

These are cute Christmas tags, which I could have used during gift-wrapping time! At least I’ll have a head start for next Christmas! These turned out so cute when I got them all put together. There were six of each of four designs of tags in the kit. Some people made cards out of the elements in the kit. Once you get the kit, you can do whatever you like with the supplies!

There are always projects I didn’t get to do before Christmas and when things calm down after Christmas it seems like a good time to go ahead and work on them! In some cases, I might even have “late” Christmas gifts that I put off because I won’t see the people until after the holidays anyway! Yes, I have two friends who usually don’t have time for our gift exchange until after the holidays (or even WAY after the holidays!) but we don’t care. It’s all about the getting together, not the timing! So whatever the reason, perhaps you also do Christmas projects after the holidays!

If you would like to get a head-start on a Paper Pumpkin subscription, today is the first day to subscribe for the February 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit! The first hints are that it is about birthday cards! And we all like to stock up on birthday cards at the beginning of the year! You can even purchase a Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription in the Online Store along with your regular order, perhaps boosting your order to get more FREE Sale-A-Bration items or bump you up to Hostess Rewards. Or just join by the month.

Are you still playing with Christmas projects you didn’t have time to do earlier? Or even getting a head start on Christmas cards for next year? It’s okay and from experience, I can tell you it’s a good idea to make Christmas tags any time of year!

One of the products that I think will be the most popular is the Painted Poppies Stamp Set. I made this easy card with just some basic stamping and coloring by stamping the group of poppies twice and then quickly coloring in the flowers and grass with the Stampin’ Blends markers. I didn’t color “carefully”, I just dabbed some Light Poppy Parade marker on all the flowers and then went back and dabbed on a little bit of Dark Poppy Parade. I used Granny Apple Green Blends on the stems and drew in some grass.

Easy Painted Poppies Birthday Card

The greeting on this card is from the Sending Thoughts Stamp Set, FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration! You will find it under the Sale-A-Bration category in the Online Store and in the SAB brochure. I simply stamped it in Memento Black Ink right on the card front to keep things simple! Sometimes we forget “simple”! The card base is Poppy Parade with a bit of Granny Apple Green Cardstock showing under the stamped image.
