Farewell, Pumpkin Dudes!

Wow!  We made it!  I think I've mentioned before that it's a little tough when we have 5-week months in our challenge - I always have to dig deep on that last one!  But still, have you had some fun celebrating the men in your life?  We sure have!  Can't stamp with 'em, can't live without 'em, lol.

We also wanted to let you know that the team has decided we need to take a break for the month of July - something we haven't done since this challenge started up!  Between moves, vacations and general Pumpkin mayhem, July is a good month for us to grab some down time!  Please do keep checking out our individual blogs, as you can be sure Pumpkins are sure to pop up here and there as time allows or inspiration strikes, but know that we will be back bright and shiny for August!  Enjoy your summer!

Don't forget, there's still time to scroll to the bottom of this post to add YOUR project to the link up!

More Manly Pumpkins

I hope everyone had a lovely day celebrating and remembering the important men in their lives!  Around here, that meant a nice grilled steak with a loaded baked potato, lol.  The way to the heart of every man is through his stomach, right?

Even though the main dude event has now taken place, there's still lots to celebrate for our guys!  Enjoy these projects, and share your own!  Scroll to the bottom of this post to add YOUR project to the link up!

Let's Hear It For the Boys!

Goodness - already week three of MPC0616-All About the Guys!  I know I was certainly reminded this week of how much I take for granted having my guy around the house - he went on his annual "man camping" trip!  Nothing like a missing hubby to bring on the household break-downs, lol.  Good thing I always make sure I know how to operate the water shut-off before he leaves!

This week is your chance to get in some last special treats and thoughts before Father's Day, too - do you have any plans?

Don't forget, scroll to the bottom of this post to add YOUR project to the link up!  We can't wait to see your creativity!

Pumpkin Dudes

Time sure is flying for our manly month of June - is it hot where you are?  Is it 116 out, like it is here in AZ?  I'm so grateful for the man in my life these days, because he's keeping the pool in tip top condition - while we fry our eggs on the pool deck, lol.  At least I'm getting LOTS of stampin' done - nice and cool in the craft room!

We can't wait to see YOUR manly projects this month - bring 'em on!  We love to see your projects!

MPC0616 - All About the Guys!

We're so excited to kick off a new challenge here at My Pumpkin Challenge!  And in honor of our latest kit, Many Manly Messages, we decided to go with a "dude" theme, lol.  That's right stampers, this month is all about the guys!  
Remember, you can use ANY kit to play at this challenge.  All you have to do is make that Pumpkin SHINE!  We will bring you a little dose of inspiration every week!  The challenge will stay open until June 30, giving you lots of time to share your manly projects!  We can't wait to see!

Think Outside the Box!

When you open your Paper Pumpkin kit are you mentally prepared to make the kit exactly as the directions show? Or is your mind already thinking of ways to change it up? Let's be honest, the kits are pretty wonderful as they are, but sometimes it is fun to think outside the box! That is why you are here right? This is the perfect place to get ideas and inspiration. Prepare to have your minds blown this week!

Catch a Falling Star...

...and put it in your pocket, save it for a rainy day!  For some reason, this song is running through my head today, lol, and so appropriate for our pocket challenge this month, too!  What fun it is to dig around for ways to add extra goodies to our cards!

Don't forget, you can still link your pocket project at the bottom here through April 30!

What's in YOUR (Pumpkin) Pocket??

You know, I just realized, that title might sound a little, hm, off-color, lol.  SO not meant that way, as you can see from our over-the-top-with-cuteness inspiration projects this week!  You really can't help but let the creativity shine with this one!
