Happy Hawwwwmmppp Day! We’re still enjoying some early Spring weather here – dry and warm. Pretty much perfect!
I thought I’d share the latest Paper Pumpkin kit – called Wildflower Wishes – with you guys today. Y’all. Let me tell you what – this kit is awesome! Actually the last several kits from Paper Pumpkin have been really really nice! Hope you’re loving them if you’re getting them. And – if you’re not – then now would be a good time to get subscribed! And I’ll share the two reasons with you later – for now – take a look-see at the completed project!
It make 9 beautiful cards (or 8 if you get silly and make a mistake on one like your’s truly…) with matching DECORATED envelopes!Continue reading →
This is my second post for the day – if you’re looking for the card I shared this morning, check it out right here!
Now, y’all. I know there are people among us that get their shopping for Christmas done in…September. Like me. I totally do that.
Uhm….
Anywho….if you happen to not be one of those hyper-organized folks (yep – this sounds way more like me!) and have one or two on your list for whom you’ve not shopped, let me give you some perfect last minute ideas. 🙂
You could get in your car, brave the Friday-before-Christmas traffic and go to the mall. That’s an excellent idea.
Or not.
You could…pay like triple-quadruple shipping to perhaps have something show up sometime on Monday from an online store.
Risky. And expensive.
ORRRRR – you could give the gift of creativity right from the comfort of your barcalounger and pajamas!
And I’ve got two options for your consideration:
Give the gift of a Paper Pumpkin Subscription!
A Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription makes for a wonderful and thoughtful gift for the holidays for the crafter (or budding crafter!) on your list! Here’s how to do it!
You place an order in my online store and checkout. You will earn your very own Host Rewards for purchases over $150 (even when combined with other items you want to have shipped to you). Bonus – if all you order is Prepaid Paper Pumpkin subscriptions – you won’t pay a dime in shipping!
You receive an email with a Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription Code.
Give that code to a friend, family member or keep it for yourself (I won’t tell!). If you’d like something “official” – you can click on that picture up above and print out a fun Gift Certificate!
Stick your “official” gift certificate in a beautiful, handmade Christmas card you made with your own two hands or write the code on a wonderful gift tag….whatever works best for you…and present it with a flourish to the lucky recipient! Brace yourself for the excitement!
If the recipient doesn’t already have a Paper Pumpkin account, they should set one up here.
On the main screen of their account, they add the Subscription Code.
Starting the following month, they’ll find a Paper Pumpkin box in their mailbox for every month of the subscription. If they want to continue past that time, they can simply add their credit card information to continue.
Option 2 – How about a Gift Certificate from me – for anything the recipient wants in the Online Store?
I can provide a lovely Christmas-y Gift Certificate (in digits for you to print out whilst still in your pajamas!) for any amount you’d like!
Once you’ve printed the certificate – use any creative gifting methodology you like! “But Mary…what if I live in North Dakota and it’s going to my bestest friend in south Florida?!” Well…send the digits of the certificate in an e-mail! Add a selfie of yourself holding the Gift Certificate! (consider getting dressed before snapping the shot…) to the email!
To redeem their gift, your lucky recipient will send me an e-mail or give me a call and I’ll place her order for her!
Bonus – your gift-ee will receive Peppermint Points for the amount of the gift certificate and will begin her journey of creativity! But – as a reward for your generosity….I’ll also give YOU the same number of Peppermint Points!! Win-win-WIN!!
So – two ideas – all doable today! Or even tomorrow!
Get after it, y’all. And then settle back, sip some peppermint hot chocolate and binge watch Christmas movies the rest of the day! 🙂

Use this host code when you order and receive a free gift from me! But, if your order is over $150, please don’t use this code (you’ll miss out on your own Stampin’ Rewards if you use it) but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any item valued up to $10.00 from the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog or the 2017 Holiday Catalog! And – you can even select one of the Host-exclusive sets! See my Rewards page for more details.
My Next Online Host Club is About to Kick Off
If You Want in – Now’s the Time!
Sale-A-Bration is Coming and that’s a GREAT time to get Host Benefits!
Would you like to receive host benefits ? Would you like to build up your Stampin’ Up! tool chest a little at a time? Well then – an Online Host Club might be the perfect solution for you!
My next club will start up on 3 Jan (coincidently with the arrival of the 2018 Occasions Catalog and the start of Sale-A-Bration!) and I have a few openings available. How does it work? Well – at a glance…
You sign up for a 6 month term and agree to:
Place a $25.00 minimum order each month
Place your order by the 20th of each month
Use the Host code I’ll provide in an email sent out at the beginning of each month
And what do you get in return?
Based on a random draw, you’ll be the “host” for one of the six months
In your month, you’ll be guaranteed a workshop total of $150 – meaning no less than $15 in Stampin’ Rewards for you to spend!
In your Host month, your order ships FREE!
When you place a host club order – which you’ll do each month – you’ll get DOUBLE peppermints for that order! So – if all you did was place your $25 order for the six months, you’d end up with 12 Peppermints. Most folks end up with all 16 (and then some) – and earn a free $40 gift!
At the end of the club, you’ll get to choose a free stamp set up to $20!
And – you get first dibs on the next Online Club!
FREE monthly tutorial with 4-5 projects – and access to all the past tutorials on my website!
FREE catalogs during your membership term
Sound like something you’d be interested in? Let me know quick – spots are filling up fast!
2018 Occasions Catalog Shares are Now Open!
What are catalog shares, you ask? They’re your chance to try a little bit of everything and see what you like the best from a new Stampin’ Up! catalog!
I’ll place our Shares order first jump out of the box on 3 Jan 18 and use expedited shipping so I get it back fast! Then I’ll get it all cut up, packaged and out the door quick as I can – hopefully during the week of 8 Jan!
We’ve got new Designer Series Papers, new ribbons and trims and all sorts of fun embellishments!
Shares are open to anyone – including demonstrators, so…check it…
I’ve got a few options for you to pick from: a New Designer Series Paper Share, a New Ribbons/Embellishments Share, and an I Want It All Share (this one gets a free extra bonus!!).

Happy HAWWWWMP Day, y’all! Hope your last week (only 5 shopping days remain!) before Christmas is going well! I just have a few odds and ends to tidy up and I’ll be ready to roll! We’ll pick up the Prime Rib on Saturday – yummmmmmm!! I have the world’s best – and most fool-proof! – way to cook the rib….I got hungry just typing this!
For today, I wanted to give you a look at the December Paper Pumpkin kit. Now – I don’t love every kit that comes to the door.
Shocked that I’d say so?
Think it thru – what are the odds that every single person who subscribes to Paper Pumpkin would LOVE every single kit they receive? We’re talking millions of folks, here…folks! In the immortal words of Sara Lee – you can’t please all of the people all of the time! So – we’re bound to occasionally get one we’re not head over heels for.
But. THIS one! This one is really cool!! Take a look-see at the Flora and Flutter kit:
I sat down to make my kit today and was done in just about an hour – with 8 cards and matching (and decorated!) envelopes!
Probably hard to see – but that’s Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper behind the lovely flowers and leaves.
The color scheme for this one is Crumb Cake, Lemon Lime Twist, Berry Burst, Peekaboo Peach and Calypso Coral!
The kit is totally inclusive (except for the acrylic block – you’ll get that with your first month’s kit!) and this one even has pre-cut strips of tear-and-tape adhesive!
I did go a little beyond the basic card – stamping the inside of the card – with Crumb Cake leaves, Calypso Coral flowers and Berry Burst butterflies – all from the included stamp set…
And – you know me – no nekkid envelopes…
This is a really fun kit – and it has an awesome stamp set with it!!
Terrible picture. Sorry. You have Happy Birthday, Congratulations, Thank You, Hello and Have a Great Day. On top of the wonderful butterfly stamp and the leaves and flowers!
Paper Pumpkin is a great gift idea, y’all – and since we’re getting down to the last minute – let me give you a gifting idea!
A Prepaid Paper Pumpkin Subscription makes for a wonderful and thoughtful gift for the holidays for the crafter (or budding crafter!) on your list! If you’ve got any questions about giving Paper Pumpkin I’d be happy to answer them…and I can even send you a printable gift certificate that you can fill out and wrap up for the recipient! Check out the different Prepaid options right here in my Online Store!
So – if you’re a subscriber – have a great time assembling your Flora and Flutter kit! If you need a gift…let me know!
Speaking of gifts – ask me about Gift Certificates! I’ll be happy to hook you up!
Have a great day, y’all!

Finn Fan Fix
The past couple of mornings have been cool and foggy.
My favorite kind of weather – it reminds me of growing up in Southern CA. I loved that coastal fog!
Of course – I was a kid, so had no appreciation for the hazards of driving in such soup – I simply loved it – the muted sounds – the blurred…everything. 🙂
Finn and I did our morning runs in the fog.
I love how our pastures look in the fog…
…and I love the surprise of white-tails flipped in disdain at my goofy little dog “hunter”…
See them?
…I think I see ’em, Mom….
…yep…I definitely see those boogers!!…
He fancies himself quite the fierce predator.
He’s my…wait for it…”sunshine….on a foooggggyyyy daaaaayyyyy….”!!

So – it’s Saturday. But…I’m working today, so…bleh! 🙂 And the way the week’s gone, my hind-end’s been dragging when I get back to the room in the evening and…tired Mary = No crafty Mojo! I sit down at my little crafting area and just…stare.
And stare.
And then I go to bed.
So…I might be a little behind!
To be clear – I don’t HAVE a little behind…I AM a little behind.
See the difference??
I did want to remind you about some things going on right now – both thru me and thru Stampin’ Up!

To receive November’s kit, customers must subscribe at paperpumpkin.com by 11:50 PM (MT) on 10 November 17.

Oh….how about new Alcohol Markers!?

Deal #2: Double Peppermints on orders over $50!
Peppermints are the reward “currency” in my Customer Rewards program (the Punkin’ Heads!). You gather up peppermints when you order thru me – usually you get one peppermint for every $25 in product (before shipping and tax) that you buy. Remember, when you collect 16 peppermints, you’ll get a free $40 gift from me! So – with this Double Peppermint special, you’ll earn four Peppermints for each $50 that you order!🙂
Remember – these are good for just one week!
When you place your order online, don’t forget to add the host code below (if your order is under $150) to get your free gift! If your order is over $150, please don’t use this code (you’ll miss out on your own Stampin’ Rewards if you use it) but you’ll still get the free gift. 🙂 Now – it turns out I’m not the only one offering some free goodies this month! Stampin’ Up! is, too! Read on!!
World Card Making Day Special Promotion!!
1 – 10 October 17
We didn’t come up with World Card Making Day, but we’re thrilled that it’s a thing! It’s a day dedicated to doing what you love most—making handmade cards! It celebrates the creativity and personal connection handmade cards create between loved ones, and it’s a great time to make their own cards to send to your family and friends.
This year the world celebrates the day on October 7, but one day wasn’t enough for us. For ten days (October 1–10), we can get 15% off Notecards & Envelopes and select stamp sets.
NOTE: We’d been offering two free Fast Fuse Refills when you purchased a Fast Fuse Adhesive, but y’all snapped those up so fast that they went on backorder and we had to discontinue that special! 🙁 To help make it up to us, SU! will bring back the same offer on Fast Fuse for five days within the next few months, after they’re confident they have sufficient Fast Fuse in stock (this five-day offer will be in North America only). In the meantime, we apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding!
So….let’s celebrate the best hobby of all—cardmaking!

Finn-Fan Fix (you’ll have to settle for re-runs until I get back home to take fresh photos!!)
But – I did take this picture driving back to the hotel yesterday. One advantage to working on a day when the whole rest of the base is off is…you can just stop in the middle of the road. One – to let the guy there at center photo meander across the road to rejoin his buddies and two…to take their picture! Genuine wild horses. Up close and personal.
You can see they were mighty impressed with my presence…

Happy Hawwmp Day, y’all! Before we get going – here’s some great news! Stampin’ Up! has the Copper Foil Sheets back in stock! Best getcha some while they last! Here’s a link right to them in my Online Store. 🙂
So, here we are on day 3 of the Aussie Occupation. Last week – Wednesday? – when I “met” Finn online – I started imagining life with my new dog. We would take long walks together – he’d ride everywhere with me – we’d be a Therapy Pet team – herd some sheep – run some Agility. I’d sit at my desk and make cards while Finn slept angelically under the table….
Whoa! I can hear you laughing, y’all! Was it that last thing? The sleeping Aussie puppy?
I think it might happen – but….maybe 6 years from now! Today? This year? Yea. Not so much! This little dude is either asleep or going 1000 miles an hour! And there’s frequently not much warning about when that status is going to change…
Don’t get me wrong. He’s a sweet love and I wouldn’t change getting him for anything. But…I feel like I just brought home quadruplets! And this morning they turned two! For all you moms out there who still somehow manage to have a job and do something besides chase the kids….I salute you!
Today was another big day…first we watched some squirrels while chewing on our collar….
Then to the doctor for shots….
and then home for the post-vet crash. Those shots wipe a little kid out! 🙂
So it was a busy day for both of us. Which is why I decided to put my October Paper Pumpkin kit together for y’all today! Paper Pumpkin is the perfect way to get a little creative break from your children – two legged with thumbs or four legged without (thank the good Lord that he doesn’t have thumbs!). It comes with everything you need to knock out some great projects – including ink!
The October kit is a particularly good one called Season of Gratitude! It’s got Fall leaves and wonderful sentiments. And it makes shaker cards!
Eight cards, to be exact – you can make them vertically or horizontally, and use any of the sentiments in the Season of Gratitude stamp set that comes in the kit.
So I put them together – with the easy to follow instructions. It’s got all the Foam Adhesive Strips and Fall-colored sequins to make lovely shaker cards.
You use the crackle image to stamp the pre-cut Cajun Craze, Delightful Dijon and Pumpkin Pie squares and they end up behind the – pre-punched- leaves in the embossed Very Vanilla panel.
And – the kit includes 8 lined envelopes – I added a Cajun Craze leaf to the front of each of them.
I ended up with 8 great thank you cards (okay, the one in the picture above will need a little remedial work!) – and I have some Baker’s Twine and sequins left over. I think I’ll make a Vintage Leaves shaker card soon!
Consider Paper Pumpkin – it’s a nice little orange box to have sitting on the shelf just waiting for a day when all the kids and the job and the grocery shopping gets in the way of a little “me” time! 🙂
If you’re interested in subscribing to Paper Pumpkin yourself, you can either sign up for a subscription where you are billed monthly for your kit or you can purchase a prepaid subscription in my online store.

So here we are on Friday (yea!) and I spent my day…not card making…no, I spent my day cleaning out closets. Most of my day. Two closets. And a couple of drawers.
Why, you may ask?
Well – cuz I have company coming. From Russia! 🙂 In less than a month. Like…in 28 days. He’s my Russian “son” – he lived with Wayne and me for a year as an Exchange Student back when we lived in Alabama. He was a senior in high school and he wanted to graduate and get an American diploma.
Have I mentioned we don’t have kids? So – there we were, with a teenage Russian kid, experiencing all the angst of his senior year in high school, with acceptable – but not sterling! – English. And we hadn’t had any of the lead up – we had no real experience with kids.
It was so much fun. We went to the lake with him and tried to explain away Speedo’s on an Alabama lake! We took him to Colorado to visit my mom at Christmas. I ate caviar (not good!). We rode horses together. He helped us do a haunted hay ride at Halloween. He was “our” kid for a year.
We were sad when he left us. But we stayed in touch…sort of…for many years.
And then came Facebook! And a message asking if I was “Mom?”
And now, he’s jumped thru all the hoops and will be coming to stay in…28 days.
So – now I need to do some serious….SERIOUS….cleaning!
Also – the image of packed closets and rooms I’m afraid to go into haunt my dreams and wake me up. I fear that I’m just a couple of McDonald’s wrappers from being classified a hoarder! 🙁
So that’s what I did today. Not card make. As happens to so many of us – “real” life frequently got between me and my hobby of making cards.
Enter…Paper Pumpkin – for when you need to create something pretty, but you don’t have the time to think it up!! 🙂
I pulled out my July kit…
…and discovered all the fixin’s to make 8 totally adorable little gift/treat boxes!
I only made two of them – for these little guys you’ll want to put your treats in before you close them up all the way – but I wanted you to see how cute they are!
Click this next picture to go right to a quick video that’ll show you how these little guys are made:
