I should be cleaning my house right now... I am expecting quite a few people over tonight to carve pumpkins and I can't believe I HAVEN'T started to CLEAN! I guess this was my calm before the storm. I'm going to have to go at it like I never have before! :o/
About my card:
I had pumpkins in mind...with a fence and a house. Umm...I don't have pumpkins stamps, nor do I have a house stamp! I had to come up with something else. So I chose this poinsettia stamp that was hiding behind a bunch of stamps on one of my shelves! I took my FAVORITE gingham bg paper and sponged red on top and then stamped my poinsettia. I then sponged that same bg paper with garden green and stamped down again for the leaves. I'm not 100% sure I did this paper piecing thing right...one can only hope!
Hope you like my card!

Wish me luck! I just don't think I am going to get my house as clean as I'd like! :'o( (sniff, sniff)

I made it a point to stop everything and visit the SCS website this afternoon to peak at all your beautiful creations! My oh my one is more spectacular than the other. You have become quite the artist! I know how much of yourself goes into each and every card. All of the creations you have given me I treasure. Can't wait until you're home for Thanksgiving so we can sit down together to make Hoiday cards. Proud of you, miss you, love you. Ma XOXO

Gorgeous card, Jenna! As for the house, if you invite people over after dark and light a few candles I find that covers up quite a few things. Hope you had fun with your company.
