Make It Monday #262 - Pumpkin Stamps 3 Ways

Hello friends.  Ashley is up this week for the Make It Monday challenge, and she is showing 3 different ways to use pumpkin stamps...traditional, unique, & trendy.  I thought I was going for trendy, but the more I look at it, I think I went more traditional.  What do you think??


I chose my colors (Orange Zest, Simply Chartreuse, & Lemon Tart) by looking at the color chart on the package of PTI's Perfect Match Color Collection, thinking they looked nice and bright and trendy??  Maybe not, but it is what it is and I like it!  :0)  I used both of Kay Miller's new sets, Spooky Smiles (pumpkins, single leaves & curly cue's) and Stylized Autumn (leaf swag and flowers).  The sentiment is also from Stylized Autumn.  Some splattering, twine, and a few sequins finished up my card.

Finally got a chance to make my Tiny Town: Spookville Manor that I didn't have time to get made for last month (HERE) and thought you might like to see!





I know it looks a little top heavy on the Mason jar, but I still love how it turned out!  Betsy has such a knack for adding all the perfect little additions to add onto these houses, and believe me, I added them all!!  Fun, fun project, and so glad I took the time to make one!  :0)

Make sure you take time to stop over at NICHOLE HEADY'S site and check out Ashley's video and lovely cards, and then play along.  :0)

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!

Traditional, trendy and unique, all rolled into one super sweet card! And your spookville manor is wonderful! You've given me so much inspiration. Love the grays all working together. Sure makes the orange pumpkins, ghosts and bats lively!
