Wickedly Sweet Treats

Hello stampers!

Another weekend gone too soon!  We sure got a lot done around here....not all good stuff, either.  We closed our pool for the season and that's always a little sad.  It had to be done, and it was time, but it's our "official" end of summer.  Poor DH had to jump in the pool one more time this morning to get the ladder out and when he got out of the pool, there was steam coming off his body!  Yep, it was time to close the pool!

Before I get to today's projects, I want to thank the crew at Can You Case It.  Teresa selected my card, Fall, as her Design Team Pick of the Week!  If you missed that post, click here to see that post.  So Teresa, thank you so much!

The mailman brought my orange box on Saturday!  Yes, this month's Paper Pumpkin!  I couldn't wait to tear into it to see this month's surprise.  The kit, Wickedly Sweet Treats, includes enough supplies to make 8 of the treat holders.  Here is one made up following the instructions:

Here is the video from Stampin' Up! showing how the kit is made up.


And here is a card that I made up with some of the supplies from the kit.

If you are not currently a Paper Pumpkin subscriber, now is a great time to sign up!

To show our support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we're going PINK . . . or at least our October boxes are! And because we know our subscribers want to share the love too, we will be making a donation on their behalf to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF).

Stampin' Up! will donate

• $1 for every active Paper Pumpkin subscriber.
• Plus, an additional $1 for every new subscriber.

Together, we will make a difference!

Here's how you can help: 

1. Subscribe! If you're new to Paper Pumpkin, click here to get started. Your first kit will arrive in a limited-edition pink box that you'll want to hold onto forever-and we'll donate $2 becauseyou're new!
2. Stay active if you're a subscriber so we can donate $1 for you. Only those who receive the October shipment will be counted for the donation.

Remember, those who get the October kit will not only be donating to a good cause, but they will also get a one-time only, pretty pink Paper Pumpkin box! No one will want to miss it. Promise.

• Mini spoiler alert! The October project inside the pink box is just as awesome as always, but we should probably let you know that it is not a pink project. That's all we're saying. ;)
