Just Us Girls Challenge #700 - Color Week - Orange, Light Blue, Tan - Hello Pumpkins (Concord and 9th)

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls where we're celebrating our 700th challenge; a milestone that's taken the course of 14 (yes, fourteen!) years to reach! 'Tis a momentous occasion indeed! Lisa K, who has been on the team since its launch, invites us to play with Orange, Light Blue and Tan this week. Beautiful combination! 


We're delighted to have Bonnie Klass as our October Guest Designer. 

My card features the oh-so-wonderful pumpkins collection from Concord & 9th. Turnabout stamps to create the background; dies for the rest. The pumpkins make me smile! 


NEWSFLASH: To celebrate the 700th challenge, some of the design team members have surprise prizes on their blogs.  To win any of these prizes, we ask that you do the following: 
  • play in this challenge, 
  • leave a comment on the main Just Us Girls blog and
  • leave a comment the blog of the design team member who is giving a prize.  
You may comment on as many of the DT blogs as you'd like.

Looking forward to seeing how Orange, Light Blue and Tan inspire you.

Thank you for dropping by!

Love your pumpkins. The teal one is so pretty. I also really like your background stamping. That Concord & 9th create such neat turnabout stamps! Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful card, Carol. I do not own a lot of pumpkin dies and I really like these, especially the tall one. I am going to pin this card for future inspiration. Great job with the colors! HUGS!

You used the colors perfectly with all of your cute pumpkins! Delightful card, Carol!

Carol said...

What a sweet pumpkin card! I like how the background is a softer version of those cute pumpkins up front. Reminds me of pictures taken with the background muted so that the focal point is up front and center. Great card!!

The pumpkins look so good in the challenge colors, Carol, and that turnabout made the perfect background for them.
