I’m finally back to crafting after spending several weeks off social distancing with family. I gathered several months of my Paper Pumpkin kits together to begin designing alternative cards from each of them. In the midst of doing that, I saw the FMS450 template and decided to make this alternative card using the May, 2020 […]

Celebrate our Heroes with Paper Pumpkin
This month’s Paper Pumpkin kit is designed to help you to celebrate and appreciate life’s champions and everyday heroes by providing all the supplies needed to make 9 cards! Another great thing about this month’s kit? It has a masculine feel to it, and we all know how hard it is to create cards for […]
No Matter the Weather, we’re “staying home”….
March’s Paper Pumpkin kit was one of my all time favorites! As soon as I got this kit I had to start making cards! I had so many wonderful card ideas to make (and starting my crochet projects – see my first project next week!), I forgot to take some time to post my cards […]
Something for everything – a little delayed
Yes, again, I’m working on past Paper Pumpkin kits trying to catch up! The December kit, “Something for Everything” is a great kit. Too bad there aren’t any refills left since this was a very versatile kit. Here’s the kit cards and what the kit included to make 12 cards; 4 of each of 3 […]
A batch of cards for FMS427
Practicing social isolation hasn’t been a problem for me up to now. Since I retired I spend most of my time in my craft room, alone – LOL. But my poor husband it going crazy not being able to go to his office. That said, he is retired and doesn’t have to go in, but […]

April’s […]
Thank you, my friend..more of the Wildflower Wishes
The size of the bold lettering on the greeting tags in the February 2018 Paper Pumpkin kit makes it easy to make them the focal point on a card. However, the Sahara Sand color on the card base, the overlays and the letters left a little something missing. COLOR! Yes, I love color and make […]
More Wildflower Wishes, this time with flowers.
The flower stickers in wildflower wishes February-2018 Paper Pumpkin kit were beautiful. So much so I felt they could be the center of a card with very little else on it. I created two flower bouquet versions with a little different accents. My first card used the kit’s Sahara Sand card base. I added a […]
Lovely Day for FMS423
I made two cards for last week’s FMS422 challenge, but forgot to link it to their website [see my Revisit of Sprinkled with Love]. So I was excited to see this week’s FMS423 challenge on Wednesday last week. I had lots of ideas for cards that I could create with this template. Then that afternoon […]
