Paper Pumpkin Fun

Hey all. I just wanted to jump on and share what I got to play with yesterday. I haven't had much time or motivation to play with my crafty stuff lately. Do you sometimes get in a funk like that? I watch lots of videos on YouTube of others playing, but I'm just not motivated. It's a cycle for me I think.

Anyhow, this month's Paper Pumpkin was quite motivating! OMG. So much good stuff. This kit was designed to go with three suites in the new catalog (Garden Lane, Come Sail Away and Woven Threads) none of which I really wanted. But now I think I'm in love with Come Sail Away and need it lol. The sailing stuff in this kit really blew me away. And the paper that went with Woven Threads had me swooning too.

Y'all know I did not design these cards. I CASE almost everything I do. It's just easier and funner when I don't have to think about things :) I cased these cards from several people on the Paper Pumpkin Fan Page on Facebook (Molly Partin, Debbie Henderson, Carrie Ricksecker, and Dana Mclelland).
Aren't those sailboat images stunning? And the map paper, which is actually cut from the envelope liners, just really goes so well. I'm also loving the little anchors.
I love the Bird Ballad suite. I can't help it. And the birds in that paper went lovely with the papers provided in the Paper Pumpkin kit this month. 
I find the color combination and patterns in this paper so beautiful. Makes me kind of want to buy the Woven Threads paper now. And, I'll let you know a little secret. That cardstock is not the new Pretty Peacock that is in the papers. That is a retired color-- Dapper Denim (I think). I loved that paper and couldn't let it go. And it is so close that you really can't tell. 

Well, that's all I have for today. I hope you enjoyed it and find some inspiration to get you crafting a bit as well!

As always, thank you so much for stopping by.
