The 50% off special on Paper Pumpkin is ending on the 10th.  If you would like to try Paper Pumpkin (and the kits have been really fantastic lately!), you need to subscribe by the end of day on Thursday, May 10.  

Subscribe here and you will save 50% on your May and June kits.  Use the Promo Code (SAVEFIFTY0418) to get the reduced rate.  After you've received your two kits, you can then cancel if you don't like them.  Now, that's a great deal!  You'll get exclusive stamp sets, ink spots, a clear block in your first kit, and all you need to put your kit together.   They are designed to be put together in about 30 minutes or so and take up very little space.  There are always extra pieces in your kits, so you can make alternatives using some of your own craft supplies if you'd like.  They even list on the directions what color cardstock coordinates with the kit!

I have a Pinterest board with alternatives, Paper Pumpkin has a Pinterest Board, and there is a fabulous Facebook group (Paper Pumpkin Fan Club) where people share what they've made with their kits and loads of alternative ideas.

I am going to the beach for the month of June and I have a few kits I haven't made yet, so I am taking them with me to work on them.  They will be quick and easy things I can do so I don't have to totally give up crafting while I am away.
