HSS Theme Challenge #139- Pumpkins

As I was surfing the net I came upon a really cute Halloween card I just had to CAS.  You can find this pretty card over here,
along with her blog here.

Today's card came from the pumpkin theme over at Hand Stamped Sentiments.


I used Elegant Eggplant for my base and top mat.  I ran the mat through my big shot using the wood grain embossing folder.  The flower vine was cut using my cricket and is adhered to some Lime Green cardstock.  The Pumpkin is embellished with purple ribbon, twine, White button and leaf stick pins.
Thank you for stopping by!

This is my entry for the Mojo Monday challlenge.  This has been a very busy week, with working 2 jobs, weight training, and writing a final exam, I have had very little time to relax and craft.  I was unable to come up with my own idea and cased this card from Teresa Kline/Paperie Blooms .  Now that I am done my course I have a little more free time. Until next time.

Summer Smooches

Today I am entering my card in two different challenges.  I always like to pick a color challenge with a sketch challenge. I chose the color combo from  Colour Q #130 and the sketch from  Just-Add-Ink . I love this new stamp set Summer Smooches, that will be available April 01-30.  It's super cute a quite versatile. I began my creation a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Tempting Turquoise cardstock.  The first layer is Certainly Celery and measures 4" x 5 1/4".  The second layer is an embossed piece of Whisper White cardstock and measures 3 3/4" x 5".  I stamped the tulips using Melon Mambo, and the other image using Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Daffodil delight. Here are the sketch and colors:
