PAPER PUMPKIN PARTY:

Hello there! I held my Paper Pumpkin Party on Thursday night and wanted to share some of the fun with you:) I was planning on posting this yesterday, but my little buddy had the flu and wanted to keep grandma close by. No way was I gonna pass up the snuggling:) With the help of my sweet daughter & hubby, we made a pumpkin cake roll, oatmeal sandwich cookies with pumpkin filling and pumpkin cupcakes with salted caramel filling.

They were quite yummy, but I gotta get the leftovers out of here!

I had a few surprises waiting for them. First, they each received a Stamp Case that they can use to store their stamps and Spots. I made them each a fun little pumpkin favor, filled with chocolate of course:)

I recycled the tissue and stickers from previous kits of mine.

Inside the case, each got a SNAIL and an upgraded clear block...and more chocolate. One can never have enough chocolate!

Next, I had a Christmas in July project for them to make. They each received the past Paper Pumpkin kit Noel to stamp and take home with them.

Finally, I let them each pick out a door prize, as my stash has grown quite large!

There was lots to choose from...kits, stamp sets, DSP, embossing folders, cardstock...

stamp pads, fabric, ribbon, buttons.markers, twine and more:)

I also had alot of the available past kits on display with lots of alternate project ideas.

One of the perks of being a Paper Pumpkin subscriber is that you can order past kits, as quantities last.

I had a few other kits that featured treat holders, but I had made them all up and gave them away for Valentine's Day, Halloween & Thanksgiving. It was awesome to have everything thought up, prepped for me and delivered right to my door:)

It was a fun kick-off and it was great seeing friends I hadn't seen in awhile, and we all had a really good time together.
