September Challenge: What makes You Smile?

Welcome to a wonderful month full of beginnings and smiles. I am sure many of you have been snapping tons of pictures of the kids starting school and so many other events.
Enjoying life is one of the wonderful gifts we have indeed. 



This month's challenge is all about 'what makes YOU smile".
Share your creativity with any of the My Paper Pumpkin kits. All are welcome!
Feel free to change it a bit, to make something different if you wish, add a different color or bring it on just as is, simplicity is beautiful in itself. We want to see these super awesome kits shine! 
Will you make them shine?

What makes you smile? Share it here with us!


Today we are also full of joy welcoming our new MPC Designer
Lisa Harlow

Lisa has been participating on these challenges for a while and as a Stampin'Up! demonstrator she has also been loving tons these kits. She certainly makes them shine. Give her a warm welcome and read below to get to know her a bit better. So excited Lisa, to have you here with us! Many blessings from Cathy, Heather, Boni & me!

"I became an independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator in September 2013 after attending a workshop with my mother and having an amazing time. I immediately wanted to share my passion for all things crafty with others! I have been making crafts of all kinds, including sewing, for as long as I can remember.

After earning my Bachelor of Science degree in Retail Merchandising, I became an Army wife to my husband, James in 2006, and we have three sweet little girls: Sophia (6), Lily (5) and Ella (3). They love to craft almost as much as I do! We have lived in Georgia, Alabama, Germany and we are currently stationed in Texas.

When I'm not busy creating and blogging, I am a homemaker, homeschooler of our girls and board member for the women's Bible ministry here at Fort Bliss. I'm thrilled to be a member of the My Pumpkin Challenge Design Team and I can't wait to create with you!

For my awesome pick I pick Kandi at Kandi & Company
I am totally in love with stars and hearts on a regular day so when I saw the layout that Kandi made filled with stars, I started to drool... just a little.  It made me giddy!! I love it.  Fantastic!!"

Boni said:
My Awesome pick is Diane Vander at Diane's Blog
"I really like how she used the kit to make Christmas tags. That was such a great idea. That is a fun little gift set!"



Heather said
"I'm such a sucker for sweet tags - the one thing I always run out of at wrapping time!  These are just elegant and gorgeous!"

Jessica said
My Awesome Pick is Jessica's lunch box notes at Made to Create
"From the moment I saw Jessica's notes I loved this new kit and I loved how she made wishes with it mixing the stars too. Gotta love the overflow of creativity. Thanks Jess!
