Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #403
Hello!
Happy Wednesday! I trust you're having a great week so far! Some of you know I have a bit of an obsession with pumpkins! Like a total love for them! I could buy hundreds! I don't. I limit myself to one or two a year! I've already bought one this year and I just ordered a tiny little one from a friend who is going to knit it for me! Anyhow, my pumpkins made their annual appearance yesterday and I was so excited about it. However, when Jacob (our 11 year old) came home from school he promptly saw the pumpkins, rolled his eyes and told me I just ruined our house with pumpkins. That child. Needless to say I was slightly crushed!!!
Anyhow, being Wednesday, we have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! Our hostess this week is the creative Narelle Farrugia! Narella is our resident Aussie and fussy cutter! I am always amazed at the things she cuts out and she seriously must have the patience of a saint!
I kinda knew what I wanted to do for this card but it took me a few times to get it to work! I also had to reverse the sketch because the holly and berries didn't quite look right on the other side. They looked upside down or something. Regardless, I switched it up a little!
I threw some ribbon in there from the Come To Gather ribbon pack. I sure love kraft coloured ribbon and it seemed to work for this card!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler
Stamps: Christmas Gleaming
Ink: Basic Black, Memento Black
Other: Come to Gather Ribbon, Softly Falling Embossing Folder, Stampin' Blends, Dimensionals
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you'll head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the gorgeous cards the Design Team has created! They are definitely inspiring!
Have an amazing day!
