![]() So, a real irony around here for me is that with all the shadow boxes my ladies and I do throughout the year, I tend to not have a Christmas one. I have SO much Christmas decor already - and my hall table moves out for the tree every year, so my usual suite doesn't have a Christmas incarnation, lol. I decided to get back on that wagon this year with My Pumpkin Challenge #1213 - Celebrate the Holidays! Maybe I can stash it in the downstairs powder room, giggle! I've never had such a wide-open sparkly field - love how it sets off the Noel Pumpkin Kit - very sophisticated!

![]() Oh goodie - time for another Holiday Pumpkin at My Pumpkin Challenge! For this one, I decided to whip up a snazzy tag for a bottle of bubbly - an always welcome party gift when one is making the rounds! I started by cutting down the pennant shape of the pre-printed Noel sentiment, and then just decided to see how many layers I could build up that coordinated! Turns out, quite a few! If you count my sparkly red star on top (and I DO, of course!) I can fit on SEVEN layers! The sweet little punched star garland makes for a perfect hanging sash, ready for any kind of bottled goodness to share! So, what's in your Pumpkin Stocking this week? Paper Pumpkin-Noel; plus, Real Red & Very Vanilla CS; Silver & Red Glimmer Specialty DSP; Merry Mini Punch Set; Basic Jewels Jumbo Rhinestone. Dates: The Clearance Rack Blitz begins December 10 and ends when items are sold out. The fine print: There are no limits, but are only available while supplies last!

Welcome to the December edition of My Pumpkin Challenge - Celebrate the Holidays! Do you totally LOVE the Noel Pumpkin kit as much as I do?? Cute, cute, cute! I have been totally addicted to the stripey paper in this year's Season of Style DSP, so I was thrilled to see the "smaller" version in The Pumpkin! For this first offering, I was just TOO tempted by how totally cool the basic card idea is. So I decided to run with it, but dress it up just a tiny sparkly bit, lol. By die-cutting matching letters, I was able to get a "shadow" effect on the large sentiment, and adding a layer of Glimmer Specialty provided just the right finishing touch! So, let's have a look at your Holiday Pumpkins! Can't wait to see! Paper Pumpkin-Noel; plus, Silver & Red Glimmer Specialty DSP; Real Red CS; Timeless Type Junior Alphabet dies (retired); Real Red & Encore Silver inks (on envelopes.) November 20-December 2, 2013

This week, I finally played with one of my first ideas when I saw the Memo Medley Pumpkin Kit - making that weird orange band into a bracelet! My original idea was to try to stamp it with Staz-On, and add some bling somehow, that I could also make some stretch with. So, that was not a successful experiment, let's just say. I'm sure all the Staz-On under my nails will come out eventually, lol! Next up, some kind of ribbon wrap, with buttons and embellies - success! I used a black gingham ribbon I found, to help set off the metal accents of the Ribbon Slides, and stuck mainly to the Regals Button collection for my color choices - I like it! I went back around a second time to go criss-cross through the slides only, for added stability in taking the bracelet on and off. It's actually quite comfie - though my daughter just ran off with it, so I guess I won't be seeing much of it!

Spreading cheer never looked so good! ![]() For this week's Pumpkin Gift at My Pumpkin Challenge #1113, I decided to give MYSELF a present, lol! One of the MANY cool things about Paper Pumpkin is that it comes with everything you need to create the featured project. Now, I know I haven't done a "featured" project yet (ahem), but, well, I'm starting to accumulated some pumpkin stuff. Paper stuff and scraps go in their own baggy, stamps are going in some Pumpkin stamp cases I started, but so far, all the Stampin' Spots have been taking up real estate in one of my project baskets. And at Christmas-time, that is some primo real estate! I have NO project baskets to spare! Thus, my Spot Storage Box was born! This gives me somewhere tidy to keep all these little suckers, til I can move them along to another home - I never open them since I have full-size version of all the colors anyway! Had a fun afternoon making my Pumpkin Mosaic for the storage box insert! Want to make your own? Dimensions are 11 1/4" x 7", scored on the long edge at 5" and 6 1/4". Make a nice second life for those scraps (and put a contents list on the inside, hee hee!) Paper Pumpkin Kits - Memo Medley, Wahoo, Good Life, and Pedal Praise; Wood-Mount Case, Full (p. 197!)

How cool is that?! What a perfect choice for this kit - and so timely with the "gifting" time of year so soon upon us, lol... So this first one from me is one I've been plotting in my head ever since my kit arrived. I've been needing something for my teenage daughter's door, as a little clearinghouse for messages, reminders, bribes, etc - you get the idea! And thus, my little note-holder board is born! I LOVE the woodgrain extra-heavy tag board that came in this month's kit - it can really stand up to some use! I had to use my Big Bite to punch the holes for some of the old retired hardware I dug out for finishing touches, but still, fairly quick, simply put together with hot glue - and in use already! Yay!

I wanted him to be snazzily dressed, too - so out came the embossing folders! I really like the encouragement of the Wahoo sentiments - so fun! I think we could all use a little extra Wahoo in our lives! Make sure to get your pumpkin on - I can't wait to see your ideas!

Throw in some texture and dimension for My Pumpkin Challenge's #1013, and we are on fire! I'm sure it's the little chevron shapes that are doing it, but this sketch really could have been specifically FOR Paper Pumpkin, it's actually not that different from the suggested project, lol! And yes, I handcut the Cajun Craze layer behind the file folder layer to follow the curves - held my breath the whole time! So, what's in YOUR pumpkin today?? Paper Pumpkin Kit - Wahoo; plus, Old Olive, Whisper White & Cajun Craze CS; Chevron embossing folder. ![]() Stampin' Up! is celebrating its 25th anniversary all year long, but during the week of the actual date (October 25th to be exact) they thought they should pump up the party even more.
