Paper Sweeties Inspiration Challenge - October 2016


Welcome to the October Inspiration Challenge over at Paper Sweeties!  Here is what I've created for you:


I must admit... that all this time I've looked at these colors as orange, tan, and green... and now that I'm looking at it in a different light, I'm seeing what I thought as orange might just be brown... but I think it's an orangey brown so ....  anyway, the colors did inspire me, although the ones I used are a little brighter.  I was also inspired by the baked goods and the pumpkins.

And what do you do if you want to make a Halloween card, but you don't have any Halloween stamps?  You take the little cupcake from the I Love Summer stamp set and make little monsters out of them... and then through the use of color, give it a Halloween party theme!


Pretty happy with my little monster cupcakes I must admit!  And I used the Eat Cake stamp set for the cake stand and just cut out the piece of pie that was on the image.


And then you take the cute little kitty from the Sweeties Pets set and the pumpkin from the Thankful set.  And her cute little Halloween party hat is from the Birthday Banners stamp set.

Be sure to head on out to all of the Design Team blogs and see what they've created for you!  Don't forget to come back on the 14th for the new release!
