Pumpkin Baby….

So adorable and fun to color!  CC Designs Sweet November Baby Trick or Treat Pumpkin is new for August and you can find it HERE!  I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers.  The orange in this Mine Minds Eye paper was a little different than what I think of as ordinary orange so I used  E95, 97 and YR18.  I love this rickety looking fence border punch from Martha Stewart HERE.  The pumpkin border is a new EK Success border punch.  The pumpkin charm is from Inky Impressions HERE.  I forgot to take a picture with the tag pulled out!  I stamped the sentiment on the tag.  The leaves border is a CC Designs stamp also HERE.   I stamped it in Antique Lined Distress ink.  All the papers are edged with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress ink HERE.

Here’s a close up of this little guy…

I used the Friday Sketchers Challenge Blog sketch…I had to consider the dividing line on the ledger paper as the separation in the sketch! I read someone describe that as creative license!  Is there a tax on that yet?! ugh!  sorry about that! lol

The challenge on the Critter Sketch Blog this week is Think Fall… cool… I’m ready for cooler weather and low humidity and low pollen… yep,  I’m picky! lol

Can you believe tomorrow is September 1!  eek!  Thanks for dropping in! See you tomorrow!
