Sorry I missed posting the last coupled of days, but hey! It's Pumpkin Festival time in Morton. Time to paint our bodies orange, dye our hair green and dance around a bonfire! Not really - it's food tent, vendor tent, carnival time! And time to get your fill of everything pumpkin - pumpkin chili, pumpkin butter, pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin donuts, pumpkin coffee and even pumpkin pie blizzards.
As I told you a couple of days ago, we Central Illinois Stampin'Up Demonstrators had a meeting and we shared cards. We are known as the Stray Ducklings...mainly because most of us have lost our uplines and we needed to band together to share business tips and information. Plus we just have fun talking stamping!
Our challenge was to make something either fall/halloween or Christmas out of the Holiday Catty or the annual catalog: Here is the first card:(speaking of Pumpkins!)
This card was created by my good friend Mary B. Isn't it cute? Very creative with the circle framelits. She used Pumpkin Pie card stock and Basic Black. Not quite sure what the DSP is though. The fork is from a retired thinlits set - tea time. I just think this is such a special card!
The next card is from my good buddy Debbie K:
Love the skinny layers! So simple yet so elegant. The DSP is from the annual catalog (pg 172) and is called "This Christmas". The stamp set is also in the annual catalog, pg 35, and called Joyful Nativity. The banner is actually a hostess set in the annual catalog called Time of Year and cut out with Bunches of Banners thinlits. (pg. 201).
The last card for today is this one:
Such a pretty and yet elegant card! The background was embossed with the "Holly" embossing folder (pg 195 AC)/ The paper is once again the DSP "This Christmas" in the annual catalog. The sentiment is from the beautiful "Peace this Christmas" stamp set, pg 27 of the AC. the pretty flower and leaf was cut out using the Flourish Thinlits (Pg 194 AC).
That's it for today. I'm very fortunate to belong to a wonderful group of very talented ladies! Tomorrow; 3 more cards.
Don't forget to check out this week's specials! Just a note: the card kit O Happy Day, is on special, but only in French. Check out the list here: Weekly Special - Sept 15th - Sept 21st
Until then, keep stamping!
