I'm a big fan of the Paper Pumpkin kits! I have found that if I don't care for the planned project, I can easily use the "parts" to do something creative that I do like! August's kit was fine, but I wanted to add a little something to the cards that were part of the kit. I added some washi tape and a brad, and then cut the cards in half and mounted them on my own card stock, thus getting twice as many cards! Here are some samples!
Chalkboard art is all the rage and it's easy with stamping to get that look. I used black paper and a white craft ink. I even smeared it just a tad to make it look really chalky! Here's one more card, I think from the May or June kit where I adapted some of the parts and added some of my own.
If you are interested, Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription kit that is $19.95 and that includes shipping. There will be a project inside with all the supplies including unique stamps and ink. I've got quite a collection of stamps and ink that I have saved from my kits and find myself going back to them quite often! Check out this link if you are interested:

Well, I have more prep to do for my card buffet, coming up in just 3 more days! Hope you can come!
