The stamp set that I used for this card came from the October 2022 Paper Pumpkin kit.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again!

 

I'm a BIG FAN of Paper Pumpkin!

I LOVE getting an exclusive stamp set every month.

You can see why Paper Pumpkin is such a great value!

Not only do you get the awesome project that is included in the kit, but you can use the stamp set to create your own projects after.
