Stampin’ Up! March 2023 Ten Years of Growth Paper Pumpkin and a Peek at the April Kit!

Good morning, y’all!  So – if you follow me on FB – then you probably know that yesterday was not a good day for us.  It was a long, long not good day.  So – to say I was not feeling a lot of creative mojo last night is an understatement!

But – I DID want (and NEED!) to do something enjoyable – and relaxing – and creative.  We all know that it’s good for our psyche to create.  So…I turned to my March 2023 Paper Pumpkin Kit which had come the previous day.  It’s the beautiful Ten Years of Growth kit – and it was just the thing I needed!

When I opened the box, I found everything I needed to put together nine pretty cards…

…including the exclusive stamp set and a Polished Pink Ink Spot! You guys know that Polished Pink is just about my favorite color – and it’s perfect with the other colors in this kit: Shaded Spruce, Garden Green, Coastal Cabana, Orchid Oasis, Fresh Freesia, and Crumb Cake!

But – there was ALSO a free BONUS!  A fun second stamp set – with an instruction sheet to make another pretty card over and above the kit cards!

That looks like my kind of card and I plan to give it a go soon!

But – for last night – I simply put the kit cards together and enjoyed a few minutes of chill!

Each card sports pretty planted foliage – this one includes a large gold sentiment.  I did decorate the front of the envelope with the sprig image from the stamp set – stamping it in Shaded Spruce (from my stash).

The second design started with a fun printed bookcase!

And the final design has a beautiful window in gold foil to build upon!  This pic shows the decorated flaps on the envelopes.  Pretty, huh?

This kit was super quick and easy to put together – I think it took me about 30 minutes in all.  And the cards are gorgeous!

If you’d like to see how to put this kit together – here’s a quick video!

And – if you’d like to buy one of these kits – I have a couple extra full kits – they’re in my Shop – check it out right here!!  Pssst – while you’re there, be sure to look at all the Retired products that I’ve uploaded.  A LOT has gone out the door, but…there’s a lot left for you to choose from! 🙂

Okay – now that you’ve seen how pretty March was…let’s take a look-see at the April  kit!

Good things take time, but you can start creating them now with the All the Little Things Paper Pumpkin kit! This kit includes nine cards, three each of three designs, with elegant designs and bright colors. The iridescent foil is the shining detail to bring your crafts together. You can make a card for anyone and for any occasion!

And don’t wait, because anyone who subscribes to this month’s kit will get a FREE box organizer! This organizer fits perfectly inside your Paper Pumpkin box and is great for keeping your supplies from past kits organized, so you know right where everything is!

Here’s the deets:

This kit includes:

– 9 cards, 3 each of 3 designs, and 9 coordinating envelopes.
– 1 photopolymer stamp set with celebratory sentiments.
– 1 Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Spot.
– Precut cherry blossom paper pieces with iridescent foil.
– Unique embellishments and twine.
– Adhesives to complete the projects.

And you’ll get a FREE box organizer!

Final card size: 5-1/2” x 4-1/4”

Coordinating Stampin’ Up! colors: Balmy Blue, Basic Black, Calypso Coral, Granny Apple Green, Petal Pink, Poppy Parade, Shaded Spruce.

Just note – you have to be signed up for Paper Pumpkin by 10 April in order to get THIS kit!  Sign up on the 11th ….and you’ll get the May kit.  Which is probably awesome – but…it’s not THIS one!

NOTE!  Supplies may be limited toward the end of the subscription period.

Happy Last-Tuesday-in-January, y’all!  Did you know that the last Tuesday in January is…National Plan For Vacation Day??  Well – it IS!  So…I figured all of you who were on my YouTube videos last week – who recommended that we NEED to go to the Blarney Castle when we go to Ireland in May – would be thrilled beyond words (wink) to know that we’re going to do it!  We’ll head from Killarney back to Dublin and swing a little south to hit County Cork and the castle.  Our family was from County Cork so…it’s two ticks on the bucket list for me!  We will – for various reasons!! – NOT be kissing the Blarney Stone! Don’t ask the reasons – if you know, you know! 😉

Finn Fan Fix 

 

After dinner yesterday, we all took a puppy or two and headed outside for the doing of “the business”.  😉

They ran – they played – they chewed leaves (and each other).  They….you know.

Jan is doing an amazing job getting these little messes ready for their new homes!  She calls them all to her and has them sit, then gives them all a little treat!  They are smart smart kids!

All that playing and learning resulted in….thirsty puppies!

And soon after, it all crashed.  The whole shootin’ match!

Right into a pile of puppies!

 

It was a good day, indeed!
