The April kit, the Lakeside Retreat Paper Pumpkin Kit, has masculine card designs inspired by calm waters and easy days. It’s perfect for crafters who want to make something thoughtful for the men who matter most to them.

The Paper Pumpkin Kit includes an exclusive stamp set tailored to male recipients, a Peaceful Pine (a new In Color) Stampin’ Spot, card bases, precut paper pieces, enamel pebble embellishments, and coordinating envelopes.  You’ll be able to make 9 cards, 3 each of 3 designs.  The coordinating colors are: Balmy Blue, Misty Moonlight, Old Olive, Peaceful Pine, Pecan Pie, and Pool Party.

The Lakeside Retreat Kit also coordinates with the new Waterside Retreat Suite Collection coming in May in the new catalog!

In addition, Stampin’ Up!™ is offering an exclusive dies add-on set that coordinates with the April, May, and June Paper Pumpkin Kits!  The Wonderful Scenes Dies Add-On is only available while supplies last to Paper Pumpkin subscribers.  It is item 168665 and costs $13.00.

Paper Pumpkin Kits are great for kids and beginning crafters as they provide everything you need, but they are perfect for long time crafters too so you can complete a quick and easy project as shown or add some of your own supplies to jazz things up or make cards or scrapbook pages if you prefer.
