Thank you so much.....

I made this from February's Paper Pumpkin kit (with a few extras). You could have had this kit delivered to your door for $19.95 (including shipping).
My thank you goes to my mother who allowed me to use my creative side. We both found out one day while I was making candles, that when you pour hot wax in a plastic container it melts the container. Hot wax - EVERYWHERE! How she kept her cool, is beyond me! I didn't get the patience gene from her, unfortunately.
THANK YOU MOM!
