Happy Tuesday, peeps! I spent a wee bit of time in my craft room this morning and decided to make a fall-themed card for two challenges: As You See It has a nice sketch, and Hand-Stamped Sentiments has a lovely fall mood board:
I have been saving this pumpkin paper (well, hoarding it, really) for a long time, so I decided to finally break it out:
This is a larger card, 7.25" x 4.25", because I wanted to make sure I got all those pumpkins on it! The papers are all from Recollections, called Thankful Heart. I stamped the "thankful" in Mossy Meadow on some of the striped paper and matted it with a scalloped mat:
The floral image is from the same papers, diecut and matted with a Pistachio Pudding scalloped mat:
And although it's hard to see, I did add some speckled stamping around the pumpkins in Basic Beige, and added some Mossy Meadow twine and a few neutral sequins. The inside is a sentiment from Simply Stamped, and I fussy-cut another pumpkin to add to the bottom. The vine stamp is from Close to My Heart:
I think this will make a nice Thanksgiving card!
It's Solanco Fair week, so I am off to put in a blanket that Dana crocheted as well as a small cross stitch project that I did. I did several projects this past year....getting them framed was another story! Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy your day and be blessed!
