March is a big month for Paper Pumpkin–it's our third birthday and the ONE MILLIONTH kit was just shipped! To celebrate, an exclusive stamp set will be included in ALL of the April Paper Pumpkin kits. Of course it's a surprise, but I'm sure we will all love EVERYTHING about it! Sign up by April 10 to get in on the fun. Follow THIS LINK to learn more or sign up! Here's the March kit reveal!
You can see more pictures and read more abut the Paper Pumpkin 3 year anniversary on the SU! Corporate blog. There are already refil kits available if you are a subscriber and would like extras. Here's the video:
You may have noticed the fun hashtag stamp she used at the end. This is a movement of crafters like myself wanting to bring birthdays back to snail mail. I mean, what could be better than finding a pretty little card in your mailbox to celebrate your big day!?
This kit sucked me right in! I opened the box, checked out the contents, and BAM, next thing I knew I had created 9 cards!!! I like the fact that Stampin' Up! always includes a few extra embellishments. After assembeling the cards you're left with extra sequins and twine as well as an extra of each die cut.
Here is a closer look at each card.
Then when I'd used up all the card bases and had a nice little pile of extras, I whipped up this one using a pice of Whisper White Thick card stock for my card base.

Are you excited about the Holiday Catalog!? ME TOO!!! I am trying to pace myself with orders, but it's so hard! lol Right now I'm expecting the Confetti Stars Punch, it's going to be such fun to play with!
As a demonstrator we are allowed to pre-order items about a month before the catalog launch. I have many favorites from that order that I've starting making samples from. Fall projects for my September workshops are coming soon! YIPPEE Here are just a few products to taunt you with...
So there are just 13 days left of the Paper Pumpkin promotion. This months kit included supplies to make 8 cards, 4 standard and 4 small notecard size. The banner pieces are blank and the stamp set includes 4 different sentiments and a little dot to stamp on the card fronts.
Each month a new video is available so you can see how to make the projects. Great if you need a little help, but also just fun to watch! ;)
To see the newest video, as well as all past videos, visit PumpkinHowTo.com. A little birdie told me the September kit is going to be soooooo cute. It has Halloween treat bags, and I can't wait to see them myself! =) There is still about 2 weeks left of the half price promotion. Sign up by 9/10/2014 and you can get your 1st two months for just 10 bucks each! Sign up at MyPaperPumpkin.com and use promo code HALFOFF2. When you get your first kit, you'll be so happy you signed up!
Paper Pumpkin is your go to creative moment each month. It's so easy to get a quick crafting fix since the projects are already thought out and instructions are provided. I think the July kit was my favorite to date. It came with supplies to make 6 cards and 6 boxes. The little boxes are so cute, and in Blackberry Bliss, one of my new favorite colors too!!
Wish Big refill kit - 136713 $7.95
Subscribers can purchase refills with the consumable supplies only, but there are also full kits available for select past Paper Pumpkin Kits. This kit comes with die cut adhesive backed paper letters spelling out
"WISH" and after you use the letters you still have the remaining card
stock piece. Look at this brilliant but simple idea using the negative
part of the letters.
Designed by fellow demonstrator Vinnie C
So even if following directions isn't your thing, you can always put
your own spin on the projects and make them original. Use a different
stamp set, incorporate extra layers, etc...these kits are very versatile
and since they are from Stampin' Up! you know you can match the colors
easily. =)

Hola! I'm posting today to let you know about a SWEET deal. If you haven't heard, Stampin' Up! has a monthly crafting kit by mail that is both easy to complete and inexpensive. It's the prefect way to get your feet wet if you are new to paper crafting or stamping. But even if you aren't, the projects are adorable and fun for everyone!!
I have a subscription for my 12 year-old daughter, and I'm thinking I might just need to add another subscription, because why should she have all the fun!? You can have multiple subscriptions, just increase the quantity to 2 or more and add the names and addresses of your lucky recipients.
Sydney loves getting a new kit every month!
A new promotion is going on you won't want to miss. If you sign up by February 10th you'll get a bonus gift. A set of 5 Stampin' Up! markers.
These markers are water based dye ink and acid free. They are designed with dual tips so you can write with them, color in line art images, and also use the brush tip to add color to your stamps in lieu of an ink pad or spot. It's a GREAT way to stamp an image with more than one color! Check out this quick video:
The color selection is the 2012-2014 In Color Markers. When SU! released these colors in the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog these were the HOT new trending colors...I still love them all!
This particular set of colors will only be available until the release of our new 2014-2015 Annual Idea Book and Catalog. When it's released this Summer, we'll have 5 new trending "In-Colors."
Anyway, back to PP. Just this month existing subscribers were treated to a little something extra....
Cute, no!? Everything is better with buttons. lol And even though one of the taglines above says, "No craft aftermath" you will have the stamps and ink spots to reuse and many times you'll be left with extra stickers and such!
Make sure you don't miss the bus on this offer. We never know what the future holds, but you can be sure your Paper Pumpkin kits will be creative and fun!

And if asked, make sure you name me (Sally Saenz) as your demonstrator! :)
Saturday concluded our journey of learning and growing with the SU! staff spoiling us at every opportunity. The General Session in the morning was a hoot! We enjoyed a game show called
Loosely based on Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me, the game had guest appearances where they each answered questions on random topics to help a demo (that shared an embarrassing story) win a $50 shopping spree. Later 3 "panelists" competed to earn points for the audience members with certain wristband colors.
It was a unique way to reward us with multiple prize patrols as well as share some stats about how SU! did in 2013. Being a part of this company is something I can be really proud of. I love being a demonstrator!!
The answer was B. Our host Brian said Festive Furry when he read these off and after that the jokes about it were endless! We were cracking up constantly, they picked the right staff members to play the game. It was awesome!
While at lunch we took a group photo. Someone took our picture with Barbara's camera, Laura's camera, Becky's phone, and my phone...well they tried to take a picture with my phone. lol
Also, guess what!? Today is the start of a wonderful promotion!!
...and look what I got to do. =) There were cute cute things behind that curtain!!
Closing session started at 1:30. We were given some taffy from Utah (where our home office is) and demonstrators that have earned a new title got to walk the stage. My sister and downline, Barbara earned Senior Manager this past year, and my friend Suzie earned Senior Executive. Way to go girls!!!
I would love to attend Convention in July this year, it's a really really BIG party!
After the recognitions Shelli really wowed us with some beautiful creations...
We had one last all attendee giveaway which means I'm bringing home 4 stamp sets, an individual stamp and the custom stamp I made yesterday. One of them is in the upcoming catalog that releases later this year. A pretty nice haul since I didn't win any prize patrols with my Wild Wasabi wristband.
What an awesome time I had at Leadership this year. It gets better and better every year! If you have ever considered ways to earn extra income, Stampin' Up! is such a great company to represent. They announced a new perk for Leadership attendees. Join my team and sign up by early April 2014 and you qualify for FREE Convention Registration!!!
Crafting is such a passion for me, earning a discount on my own purchases is a no brainer, and doing a few workshops help pay for what I buy and then some. The minimums are easily attainable, just $100 every month, or $300 by the end of the quarter. I would love to share this opportunity with you. Read more about being a demonstrator on my website.
Welcome to my craft blog!!! I'm always cooking up some sort of crafty creations; I sketch layouts and do scrapbook pages, I like to alter things, make cards and 3 dimensional items too. I hope you'll find ideas that motivate you to explore new things, and above all have FUN doing them! Let me know you were here, please sign my guest book at the bottom of this page.
