Happy Friday! I have five minutes before it's time to get Ryan out the door for school, so I'll try to get this post written quickly : )
Hold onto your hats, folks, I actually busted open a Paper Pumpkin kit and--gasp!--used some of the pieces. (I have a very bad habit of buying the kits and then...never doing anything with them.) So here is today's card:
I used this week's sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday:
I have lots and lots of older stamps I could have used for this card and I was all set to do just that until I saw the challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments:
The colors and textures in the inspo photo are a pretty good match for the most recent Paper Pumpkin kit, which I just got in the mail this week. And this Paper Pumpkin kit includes literal paper pumpkins : ) The linen pattern in the background was part of a box I think; the leafy pattern was the liner in the envelopes that came in the kit, and the Lost Lagoon pattern was cut from a 3x3 card. A pre-printed paper pumpkin and leaf, a few speckled dots, and one stamped sentiment and there's my card. I think this took all of ten minutes to put together.
Okay, Ryan is putting on his shoes so we're out the door momentarily. Have a great day, y'all!
Supplies, all SU!
Stamps: My Paper Pumpkin September 2023 kit
Ink: Mossy Meadow
Paper: Crumb Cake, papers from the kit
