Dynamic Duo's #71 and Retro Sketches #82


Happy Sunday...hope everyone had a fabulous weekend, mine was pretty quiet which is just the way I like to spend my time off.  Friday started the weekend off at a very swanky 50th surprise birthday party for a dear friend and I spent Saturday making sure all my dolly domestic chores were done so I would have some crafting time on Sunday.  I had plenty of crafting time but only made one card and make my first pumpkin treat of the season, Pumpkin Streusel Bread from Lil Luna . My card is for this week's Dynamic Duo's #71 challenge and Retro Sketches #82 challenge. I love it when I can make one card for more than one challenge.  I pulled out a stamp set from Hero Arts that has never seen ink and I love the way it turned out. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by to peek at my card....have a fabulous week!

  6. Gorgeous card. Perfectly stamped images, and the center of your flower is very eye catching. Here in WI there's a place called the Elegant Farmer and they make a pumpkin apple bread every fall. I'm wishing I had some to go with my coffee! Totally love your card, and have a great week! Bev
