Sprinkles of Love with Paper Pumpkin

May's Paper Pumpkin is adorable! The kit is called Sprinkles of Love and contains supplies to create 9 circular cards - 6 doughnuts and 3 floral cards.

Craft with Beth: May 2017 Paper Pumpkin Kit Stampin Up Sprinkled with Love

This month's kit reminds me of our local doughnut shop. They create more than 20 different and creative flavors every day. My husband and I sometimes go on the weekend to samples some of the more interesting flavors such as brownie blast and banana's foster. They are delectable!

The stamp set has heart-warming and dear sentiments! The play on words is fun too!

I especially love the "envelopes" this month. The cards are packaged in Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla striped paper bags with gold and Very Vanilla twine, giving a fresh from the bakery feel!

One Happy Little Piggy

I cannot wait for the This Little Piggy stamp set to debut! Talk about a darling stamp set! Out of all of the new stamps in the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog, this little piggy is my favorite! He/She is just so happy and cheerful that I can't help smiling too!

Craft with Beth: This Little Piggy Stampin' Up! Hardwood Background Stamp Watercolor Aquapainter Sneak Peek 2017-2018 Annual Catalog

We made this sweet card, created by Lenore Whitehead, at my upline's monthly demonstrator meeting. We stamped the pig sitting down onto watercolor paper and used the aquapainters to color him in using Soft Sky, Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, and Powder Pink ink.

The Hardwood background stamp really enhances the farm theme too!

The leaf patterned paper comes from the Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper stack. This is my favorite Designer Series Paper stack from the 2017-2018 Annual Catalog! Every double-sized sheet is just gorgeous! I ordered three packs during my demonstrator pre-order, and I know I will be ordering more come June!
