Helloooo my crafting friends!

Today we are sharing Halloween/Autumnal cards over at Stamping Bella using a photo inspiration. I decided to use Oddball Pumpkin Pile...

I created the background to match the photo inspiration using Distress Oxides and a stencil. I then added a strip of stripy DT and the bottom and adhered the pumpkins on top using 3d foam pads.

Stamping Bella- Bellarific Friday with Pumpkin Spice Curvy Girl!

 Hello my crafting friends!

Well it certainly feels like autumn now here in the UK. The mornings are darker and the rain has set in! But there are, of course, lots of things I love about autumn and one of them is Stamping Bella's Pumpkin Spice Curvy Girl!

I coloured Curvy with copics and paper pieced her dress and then fussy cut out. As we were following a DT member's style or particular card, I followed Michele's card and so arranged my papers to follow her sketch. I cut out some leaves from the paper pad which I thought looked pretty and finally added a stamped sentiment from the Autumn Sentiment Set.

Happy Friday! x
