Hello my Saturday friends!

Time for a blog hop!

Our theme today is anything we are working on.

Well, I’ve been working on putting out fall stuff around the house. It is my favorite time of the year!

I thought about playing around with some home decor – Stampin’ Up style.

What do you think –

I made, or redid, a wooden pumpkin from a cheapo store!

I added the so loved buffalo check pattern from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack. This is a can be your hostess gift with a qualifying party.

Next, I added two die cut leaves from the Intricate Leaves Dies –

Next came the tag from the Tailor Made Tags stamped with Thankful from the Time Of Giving stamp set –

So simply sweet!

The addition of the ribbons just made it! I tied two different ones together. So fall-ish!

Here is what the cheapo pumpkin looked like before –

Pretty sad!

I’d say, this was an excellent makeover, wouldn’t you?

Happy Wednesday my friends!

It’s Wednesday! On Wednesdays we have a new challenge from Make the Cards Challenge –

These are soo much fun! I love all the choices!

I am continuing my week of using the Pretty Pumpkins bundle –

I love this Cajun Craze color –

So I managed to use from the list : ribbon, embossing folder, stitching, card stock layers. Whew!

You can see the faint stitching around the top of the pumpkins. I used the Stitched With Whimsy Dies for this –

Yes, these are a favorite of mine!

The background paper that everything sits on is from the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper. I bet you’d never guess that!

I might feature this card on my upcoming Card Buffet. It is so pretty! And, just screams FALL!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

Pretty color combination! I went with a modern twist –

I used the Art in Bloom stamp set –

I also used the Stamparatus along with Bumblebee and Flirty Flamingo ink pads creating a nice background.

The sentiment was also stamped with the Stamparatus in Night of Navy.

Lastly, I added the Bumblebee 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon and tied it into a sweet bow secured with glue dots. Such a sweet card, perfect for any friend!
