October's Paper Pumpkin kit will help you get a start on your Holiday cards. This kit makes ten cards, five each of two different designs. I've already made up all the cards in the kit so I'm not going to be as far behind as usual. I usually don't save the Paper Pumpkin boxes, but I really like this one. I think it will be perfect for gift giving this season. I love to give away a stash of handmade cards to friends and family every … [Read more...] about October Paper Pumpkin-Nests of Christmas

New Kits Collection-Christmas Ornaments
One of the brand new kits this month is the Christmas Ornaments kit. I am so excited for this kit. These ornaments are going to look amazing tied to the top of Holiday gifts. The ornaments are bigger than I thought they would be. The larger ones are almost 4" across. I just received a bunch of these kits last week. And after opening the box, you can bet I set one aside for myself. I haven't had a chance to make the ornaments yet, but I did … [Read more...] about New Kits Collection-Christmas Ornaments
September Paper Pumpkin-Autumn Abundance
The first day of Fall was yesterday and September's kit is the perfect complement to the season. I just received this kit last week and could not wait to put it together. The Fall colors are stunning in this kit. The navy blue is an unusual choice for Fall, but it really adds a nice pop of color to this card. I love all the beautiful leaves in the cards and the envelopes. If you missed out subscribing in time to get the September kit, I have … [Read more...] about September Paper Pumpkin-Autumn Abundance
September Magnet Kit-Hocus Pocus
Summer hasn't even ended yet, and Halloween decor is up in all the stores and has been for a few weeks now. Since everyone else is already prepping for spooky season, I thought I'd get a jump on it too. This month's magnet kit is a witchy cauldron stirring up a bit of magic. This kit has a little bit of a surprise in it. The potion jars will vary from kit to kit. I picked a paper that has dozen different jars and items on it, which means most … [Read more...] about September Magnet Kit-Hocus Pocus

August Magnet Stand Kit-Fall
One of my favorite Fall activities is visiting an apple farm and stocking up on apples, cider, and apple pie. When we go, I always hope for a cool, crisp day but in SoCal, it's typically still around 90' in September. So we do our apple picking in shorts and t-shirts. It's been a few years since we've been, but it was always a lot of fun. To help you get ready for your Fall decorating, August's kit is dedicated to apple season! This is one … [Read more...] about August Magnet Stand Kit-Fall
August Sampler-Go Wild
When my kids were little, one of my favorite places to take them was the zoo. They absolutely loved seeing the wild animals in person. Even though they couldn't get close to them, they loved watching them. It's hard to say which animals were their favorites. The monkeys were always so entertaining. The size of the elephants and rhinos were always surprising when we got close to them. But if we saw the lion out of his hiding spot, that was … [Read more...] about August Sampler-Go Wild
