WHAT IS PAPER PUMPKIN?
It's fabulous, fun paper crafting product in "kit form" (pre-cut, pre-scored, ready to assemble) wrapped up in pretty, soft blue tissue paper in a bright, red box that gets delivered right to your mailbox each month. And each kit includes a stamp set and ink that you can use again and again even after you've created everything within the kit!
HOW DO I ORDER THESE KITS?
