Pumpkins Galore! * HSC38 * LSC189

HS Riley Pumpkins HSC38 412×510In this area, it’s easy to find pumpkin patches, ready to provide a hayride, wagons, or even a small train ride through the prepared fields of pumpkins, cornstalks and scarecrows.  It looks like Riley moose has found his own pumpkin patch, just in time for the Hanna’s Friday challenge, “Happy Fall, Y’all”, HSC38!   We’re challenged to create a project using fall colors & a fall theme.   Additionally, the SCS Limited Supplies challenge, LSC189,  also intrigued me, since it limited us to “Rock, Paper, Scissors”.  The limits meant that only paper, scissors, and ‘rock’ embellishments were allowed, including rhinestones, or brads.  Yikes!  No punches, Nesties, scallops, etc.!  Suddenly I realized how much I enjoy using those additional tools.   Therefore, it HS Riley Pumkins HSC38 closeLeft 300×227definitely seemed like a good challenge for me. 

The ‘rock’ element of my card became the rhinestones.   Rhinestones and pumpkins?  I considered brads of course, but opted to go for the ‘unexpected’ element.  Tex’s Tip:  When attaching small elements such as rhinestones or dew drops, tweezers are a handy and efficient way to place the stones precisely on the spot.  A tiny drop of Diamond Glaze will hold them tightly.

 A few more leaves were stamped on the background from Hanna’s ‘Jump for Joy’ set.  Then additional scissors work brought in a few more HS Riley Pumpkins HSC38 closeRt 300×244pumpkins from Hanna’s Thanksgiving set.  So now, Riley has plenty of pumpkins for his fall celebrations.  Here’s hoping you have a fabulous Fall week ahead, wherever you may be! 

Happy Fall, Y’all!
