My Paper Pumpkin Pinwheels

Today over at SSINKspiration we are showing you how to create a pinwheel!  You won't want to miss it!

BUT...if you received the June 2014 My Paper Pumpkin Kit you already know how easy it is to make a pinwheel!  The June Kit came with supplies enough to make 24 pinwheels!!!

I created 12 of them in just about 15 minutes!  I plan on taking them to our 4th of July celebration this Friday.  We can use than as decoration and then let the kids play with them.  They don't spin, but I still think the kids will have fun with them!

Here is a close up!  This week I will be showing you a few other things that you can do with the June Kit!

My Paper Pumpkin: July Kit

While I still wait for my August Paper Pumpkin Kit to arrive, I can't help but wonder if it got sent to 2 incorrect locations because I still hadn't played with my July kit and posted my projects or WHAT?!

 

So here is what we got in the July Kit...

 

Supplies enough to make 2 cute banners!  3 mini background pattern stamps and Pool Party and Summer Starfruit ink spots!

 

When I got the kit in the mail, I knew that I wasn't going to create the banners themselves.  But I wanted to see what I could use the kit contents to make!

 

 

 

My first project was a scrapbook page of my last birthday.  So I guess I did use a banner...but I used it on a layout instead of a cake!

 

The base of my layout is Tangerine Tango.  I added in a strip of Pacific Point DSP on each side of the layout.  The half circles were create with my 3 patterned stamps, the ink spots from the kit and Whisper White cardstock.  I used the 1-1/4" Circle Punch to punch them out and then cut them in half before gluing them down.

 

  

My second project was a cute card!  I wanted to use the other skewers that came with the kit and make a banner but a typical card isn't large enough to spell out "PARTY" or "HOORAY".  So I laid out all of the letters to see what else I could spell.

 

I stamped the patterned stamps on the white banners to give them a little design.  Then I added in Pacific Point Baker's Twine too!

 

The "Happy Birthday" sentiment comes from the Remembering Your Birthday stamp set.

 

  

For my last project, I wanted to see what else I could spell using these cute circles.  "ROAR" jumped out at me and I thought it would be really cute paired with a little Tangerine Tango image of the lion from the Zoo Babies stamp set!  Am I right?
