Hello, I'm back

I've been missing in action with my Bloom quilt, which I have not finished. Yes, I got a little behind, so I was playing catch up with my applique blocks and pretty much did nothing else. They're done, but now I'm finishing up to quilt top. I haven't done machine quilting in a long time, and I have never done free motion quilting. So I have some practicing to do! I will post some pics soon of what I have competed.

Anyway, the new Stampin' UP! catalog is out, and I'm just waiting for my order. In the mean time, I'm playing around with My Paper Pumpkin kits. 



Here are a two cards I made with the May kit, Many Manly Occasions. Then I played around with the laser cut card bases and some of my stash of papers and stamps and I came up with these cards.




  • All About Everything stamp set (thank you gift from Paper Pumpkin)
  • Wildflower Fields DSP (retired)
  • Pop of Pink DSP
  • Inks - Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Calypso Coral, Mint Macaron, Melon Mambo
  • Petite Petals punch
  • Candy dots (retired)
  • Rhinestone Basic Jewels

Now I have some more cards to use for any occasion. I love these kits, sometimes it more fun to use alternate ideas. The June kit should be arriving any day, I can't wait. Here's the June kit video:



Take care and be crafty!
