Since it’s a Sunday, I checked a couple of challenge sites who post new challenges on Sundays, before sitting down to craft and found that The Paper Players want a taste of fall. Even better, Laurie wants a clean and simple card. This challenge fits perfectly with my goal to create another paper pumpkin alternate with the Something Good To Eat kit.

Here’s the banner which inspired my card:

I used very vanilla card stock for my top layer and first stamped the pumpkin in, obviously, pumpkin pie. What else could I use?! The details on the pumpkins are in tangerine tango. The faces and stalk as well as the sentiment (all from the Something Good To Eat kit) are in old olive.

To pull out the old olive more, I trimmed 1/8 inch off two sides of my very vanilla (to 5 1/8 by 3 7/8) so that I could have an old olive mat. It’s 5 1/4 by 4 leaving a wider pumpkin pie border.

As I mentioned yesterday, the labels in the paper pumpkin kit are going to be useful for a bake sale. I’m tempted to go and create a bag to hold cookies for it now.

See you tomorrow,

Liz
