It doesn't feel like Fall in my household until we've made it to the
pumpkin patch to find that perfect carving pumpkin. It's hard to see in
the photos, but our pumpkin patch is directly across from the ocean and
it makes for a breathtaking family adventure.~Lori Gentile

Leaf paper to the Black Square paper. Outline the Kraft Leaf paper with

Cat's Creations in Mineral Wells, Texas recently brought in the Wham-it for their "Crop for the Cure". Their weekend event was held in honor of their
dear customer and friend, Patrice, who was diagnosed with fallopian tube
cancer. The color for that cancer is teal, not pink, and her nickname is Tink
so they called it "Teal for Tink". Their customers used the Wham-It as their theme to Wham the cancer away while raising money for a cure!!! A huge thank you to Cat's Creations and their customers for sharing your Wham-It story and video while raising money for a cure!
These photos of my nephew, Nicholas put a huge smile on my face. For the past two years he has worn the same costume - a Vampire! He has perfected the "vampire act" and spends his time hiding behind his cape or trying to "bite" his sisters! This year it took alot of coaxing to convince him to pick something different! ~ Cheryl Mezzetti
