My First Paper Pumpkin!

If you haven't heard I recently signed up as an Independent Demonstrator with Stampin' Up. As part of the starter kit you get a Paper Pumpkin kit to try from a previous month. I received February 2014 - In the Bag to try out. I'd already signed up to receive Paper Pumpkin monthly since they are running a special right now, but it was nice to get to play with a previous month kit before my first one arrives.


Now through September 10th if you sign up for Paper Pumpkin with the code HALFOFF2 you get your first two months half off! That's basically getting a month free! Go to the Paper Pumpkin website and sign up, and choose me as your Demonstrator if not already selected!

I wasn't planning to blog about this so sorry for the poor picture quality!

Here are the supplies I received in the Paper Pumpkin box:


It included enough materials to make 5 of the bags seen. I only made one as shown then did a second with my own spin on it. I'm saving the others for any special gifts.

Here is the one shown in the Instructions:


I have a baby shower later this month so I decided to decorate one bag for baby gifts and I made a card with a matching envelope. I used Whisper White Card Stock for the card and a matching envelope. The orange color is Pumpkin Pie and the blue twine is miscellaneous leftovers. The orange really made the Teal circles POP!


I am looking forward to getting these surprises each month! The kit comes with everything you need to make the craft in the instructions, which is great if you are just starting out! If you are like me you want to do more than just what the directions tell you and use the supplies in different ways! You can visit Paper Pumpkin on Pinterest to see other people's designs each month!

To sign up: Visit Paper Pumpkin and make sure I'm selected as your demonstrator. If you sign up by Sept 10th make sure you use the code HALFOFF2 for half off 2 your first two months for new subscribers!

Also make sure you visit my Stampin' Up website for any other crafting goodies you are in need of. If you'd like to have me and some friends over to craft together just let me know!
