Picking the Perfect Pumpkin

     I love fall, I love autumn colors, I love Halloween color combos, and mostly I love that purple has become one of the Halloween colors.  :-D   And today, I get to combine all those things into a card which I've done as the Guest Designer for the October challenge on the Ching Chou-Kuik blog.


There's also a huge Blog Birthday celebration and you don't want to miss out on the festivities.


     This image is called "Pick a Pumpkin" and it's one-half of a lovely Halloween set available in the Etsy store here.   Since October is underway, we have a theme of "Halloween."


     The image is colored with ProMarkers, then cut with a Stitched Rectangle die by Die-namics.  The embossed background was made using a Sizzix folder.  Doesn't it look like a slab of chocolate?  Mmmm.  Both ribbons were remnants in my stash.

     Challenges:
Colour Your World
Crafty Boots
Di's Digi Designs
Dream Valley

Lil Patch of Crafty Friends

     Come join us this month!  Halloween, birthday, and fun images -- how can you lose?  Happy Stamping.  NanaConnie
