Cute as a Pumpkin

Hi there. Welcome. I'm posting a little late today and no post yesterday, as I had my Grandkids overnight. Even though we spent some time in the stamp room, I didn't get a lot accomplished until after they left. We had movie night and popcorn, of course last night after a dinner of Taco's with all the trimmings. Today when they were leaving they wanted to take some Chestnuts home. We have two giant trees in our front yard and they are falling like crazy now that it's cold. There Mom, my daughter, said "you're not taking them in the house, they stay in the garage". I asked her what's the matter Heidi, don't you want to find them in their closets in the Spring, all yucky like we did when you were little?

Today's card is for the Penny Black Challenge, which was a sketch challenge. I have used this brand new to me Penny Black hedgie with a pumpkin balloon, isn't he cute? Papers are by K & Company and the word stamp is from the dollar bin at Michaels. The beautiful polka dot ribbon was a gift from my blogging bud, Stephanie, thanks so much friend. Hope you had a great Saturday and were able to do something you love. Thanks for stopping by. Until tomorrow........
