I got in contact with a gal here in town that is opening up a bakery. YUM! She was looking for someone who makes hand made cards to put in her bakery. Uh, yes please. Right up my alley. So I have been working on some mini cards that will work great. For my first one I combined with this weeks Mojo Monday sketch and used the Best of Birthday set.
I also CASEd this little card out of the new catalog and just changed up things a little. I wanted to use up some of the retired DSP. Stamps set Chalk Talk with matching framelits. Bundle it for a 15% discount.
Petite Pairs stamp set is a great set with lots of options for sentiments.

My Paper Pumpkin
I did it! I have been debating wether or not to order the My Paper Pumpkin. I just decided to go for it. You can cancel at any time so why not try it out? I am so glad I did.
Here are my cards. I stuck with the one the instructions showed and a adorable one I found on Pinterest.
My 12 year old daughter, Kinsley put this kit together with me. She is super creative. I didn't even take a single picture of that night though. I feel so bad. And I would totally have snapped one this morning except my little girl is gone to her first year at girls camp. She was so super excited and scared at the same time. (I was feeling a bit of the same for her.) I hope she is having fun. Her daddy gets to join her tomorrow. Lucky him.
Here are the cards Kinsley came up with and she didn't copy any.
She did such a cute job.
This is the starter kit so everyone receives this one first. Check it out at www.mypaperpumpkin.com and don't forget to choose me as your demonstrator or just click the link on the right. Order your creative escape today! You will be glad you did.
Happy stampin'!
Seriously who doesn't want craft supplies beckoning them to run away?
I didn't think to take a picture until I had already torn into it but here is the cute little sticker and welcome card.
Here is what came in the kit minus what we used up making the cards.

For You Crazy Talk
I think that the first week of summer is always the crazy one. I always takes me a bit to adjust to having all 5 of my kids home all day and it takes them a bit to adjust to being home. But we are trying to work out the kinks in hopes that our summer will be everything we all expect summer to be. FUN!
I finally got a minute today to do a little stampin'. YIPPY! So I joined in on Mojo Monday and Hand Stamped Sentiments blog challenges for this week.
