hello Fall - Always Fun Challenge #183

October 5, 2020

Hello .. Wow October already. Are you thinking of what you're going to do this year for the holidays? I know we had plans to go to Vegas to visit family but that is not happening. Too risky. It's going to be a weird holiday season and winter..

Well we have a new challenge over at 

Our theme is PUMPKINS


So for my card I used the Newton Nooks little boo animals. I used Gerda Steiner pumpkins and Sugar Pea pumpkins and sentiment.. I colored them all with copics. I used my cloud and ground template and Ranger ink to create the background. I stamped the sentiment on some orange paper and cut it out like a post. I colored the post with copics and went around the sign with Quick Quote chalk ink. I then added the images to create this fun scene.
