Sunny Thanks

I needed a quick party favor so I pulled out my Paper Pumpkin bits box. Can you tell which parts are leftover bits?

The sunflower (edited from the original snowflower typing error, must have snow on my mind!) tags are leftovers from the Something Good to Eat kit available at my online store here. The stamp is from the Layered Leaves kit which is sold out. I have an extra Layered Leaves stamp set if you would like one.

The 2×6 cello bags are currently sold in the annual catalog. I cut them down to fit 2 colored coordinated tootsie rolls. Gotta have candy that matches the packaging! 🙂

Paper Pumpkin kits are a monthly program that delivers paper crafting kits to your snail mailbox with almost everything you need to create the projects inside (you may have to add your own scissors). FAQs and sign up is through this link.

Kits are affordably giftable at $20 plus tax per month. Order subscriptions to bring the price down $1 or $2 per month based on the number of months you order. Subscription orders are placed through my online store here. Scroll down to Paper Pumpkin on the left side after reaching my online store to find subscription pricing. After purchasing subscriptions, Paper Pumpkin will email you with the promo code so you can add it to your Paper Pumpkin account.

I hope you like Paper Pumpkin as much as I do!

Toil and Trouble, Boil and Bubble

Jim’s sister Sue created this pin worthy tablescape. It screams Something Wicked This Way Comes. Notice the test tubes? These are left overs from her Something Good to Eat Paper Pumpkin kit from last year. Full kits, refill kits and test tubes are available through my online store here.

She created her own labels that say spider venom, unicorn fur, toad pee, raven’s blood and zombie blood. Fun!

The wide angle shot…Scary!

I’ll be handing out candy tonight. I plan to create some owloween treat bags like I shared in this post for my stamping neighbors. So unmask yourself so I can give you the chocolate!

Happy Halloween!

Fun Fridays, Share the Fun!

I have been sharing the designs from fellow demonstrators this week and have more designs to share next week. For today, I thought I would share photos of the prep work and also demonstrators that attended the Fall Fling.

I provided 8 make-n-takes and used my tubbing system to make sure all the supplies used for one project could be contained in a tub. Starting from the top left are 2 cards, the holiday catalog dsp share, scrapbook layout (blogged about here), an acetate gift box, a pizza gift box, a sheet of thick whisper white that could be stamped with images from The Little Things stamp set and a Halloween treat bag.

I use rolling suitcases to transport the tubs to the stamping location. Four tubs fit in one suitcase. The Big Shot is strapped to the extended handle. My CentreStage bag is strapped on too. I use the suitcase pockets for grid sheets, catalogs, additional Big Shot platforms, stamp-n-scrubs and mist cleaning bottles. My method of transport is slick!

Some action shots during the gathering. I’ll have to put group photo on the agenda next time!

Hope you enjoyed seeing behind the scenes. If you want to attend our next gathering, contact me to discuss options. Have a nice weekend!

Bridal Brunch Thank You Cards

So what to do with your bridal brunch paper decor after the party is over? How about transforming the supplies into the guest thank you cards. This is what I did with the patterned paper, flirty flamingo cardstock and vase wraps that were part of the table centerpieces from the bridal brunch this past Saturday.

original decor:

transformed with a little cutting, punching and stamping…

Watch my Facebook Live video to see how the decorative label punch is used for the thanks tag and to see the assembly line! Search for Super Awesome Stamper Shirley Merker in Facebook to find my business page.

I’ll make delivery to Melody on Wednesday. Hope they like the re-design!

SU announced the retiring list of products from the annual and Spring occasions catalog. I just cruised the online store and found these essential Big Shot paper transformers!

The real zingers are these though:

I reach for these to add the perfect last detail to many projects including these sour cream party favors shared at our annual paper crafting retreat:

Ready to place an order for those embossing folders, super awesome fringe scissors and other fine products? My online store is open! Click on this link to shop now.

Please use hostess code E6NBEWZZ if your order is less than $150. If your order is more than $150, you should consider being a demonstrator (under me!) so you can buy your products at a discount! If you still want to order more than $150 and be my customer, that is fine too. Just don’t use the hostess code because you get to keep all the host rewards.

Happy Stampin!
