I finally had a chance to play with my September kit this week. Above is a photo showing the projects you are supposed to make with the kit if you follow the kit directions.
But I like to think "outside the box" and create other projects. Each month I come up with greeting cards, scrapbook pages, and 3-D items. And I share how to make these projects in a video that I post to my YouTube channel. If you are getting the Paper Pumpkin kits, be sure to subscribe to either this blog or my YouTube channel so you don't miss out on what I share each month.

Thank goodness this PP didn’t stump you like it did me. I’ve subscribed for a couple years and have never been stumped for an out of the box idea until this kit!! Whew!
Rachel, I am a fellow demonstrator, and my subscribers and I look forward each month to your fantastic “outside the box” creations and super videos. I know you spend a lot of time on the videos and in thinking up the ideas. I hope you continue for a long time. You are amazing! Thank you. An additional note…. I, too, thought this month was a hard one for extra ideas. However, you knocked it out of the ballpark!
LOL! I can see why. I know it challenged a few others that I’ve chatted with, too. So you weren’t alone.
Thanks so much, Sandy! I’m blushing.
Ahhh….. Rachel! You never disappoint. I don’t celebrate Halloween, so I was wondering what in the world I was going to use this kit for. Well!!! you didn’t let me down! All of the projects made me think of things I could do. But the BEST thing of all was cutting those straws! My heart beat faster when I saw what you were doing! and then the grass from the fringe. Well. Thank you for a great video.
Very nice spread of projects and inspiration! Thanks for sharing!
You made me tear up with your sweet words. Thanks Sharon! Hugs to you.
Awww…You are welcome. And thank YOU for leaving me such a kind comment, Libby.
I can’t believe you came up with so many great ideas!
Thank you, Mary. 🙂
