I FINALLY got around to playing with last month's Paper Pumpkin offerings--JUST as this month's package is getting ready to be delivered. I just LOVE that with Paper Pumpkin, you pay a fee each month, but you have NO idea what will be arriving in your mailbox for you to create--sometimes it's a decor piece, other times it's cards, or a scraping/brag book, or even something else!! Admittedly, I tend to enjoy the cards the most, BUT, February's offering made me pretty excited when I opened up the package--it contained enough supplies to create FIVE ADORABLE gift bags!!!

Another cool thing to note--the stamps themselves are now coming as photopolymers, so they're completely clear to see thru and be able to see where you're stamping!! You get two cool circle images in this kit--one is a small polka dot (the green starbursts on 'hello' bag) and the other is a small stripe (green starbursts on the 'howdy' bag) along with a Pistachio Pudding ink spot. The teal circles, white starburts & the pre-printed letters are ready to be popped out of their sheets and assembled together (after stamping the starbursts, of course!!). The white ribbon is SUPER easy to thread into the jumbo brad holes and tie a small knot in each, and the mini clothespins hold the circles on to the baker's twine!!
I've only put together two of the five bags so far (I want to keep the others for when I need something for a specific occasion!), but there are SOOOO many great options. You could even spell out someone's name on the 'banner' if you wanted!! Oh!! And don't forget, you can use the blue tissue paper that is in your Paper Pumpkin box to wrap around the gift that goes in the bag! Reduce, reuse, recycle!! :)
You can sign up for Paper Pumpkin today by visiting their web site. Remember it's just $19.95 a month, and you can always choose to 'opt out' if the budget is tight that month!!
Happy Stamping!!
