Patchwork Pumpkin

Woo Hoo! I made another one! Two in one week is a roll for me.......and I have ideas for others. So maybe I'm out of that creative slump!

This card is made from 1 1/2" squares of cardstock, embossed, patched together, and connected with a black Sharpie. The pumkin, leaves, and acorns are from Create a Critter. Added some Creative Memories silk leaves and a jute bow. Details in marker....and a little bit of bling! A bit of a Fall patchwork jumble!

This card fits the Fantabulous Cricut challenge of leaves this week. I love Fantabulous Cricut and used to serve on their DT until my health caused me to quit. It also fits My Sheri Crafts Challenge of stitching, even if it is faux. If you've never been, hop on over to both places for great projects and tips.

Sunbonnet Sue

My grandmother's Valentine!!   My grandmother (who will be soon be 91) is an award-winning quilter so I took one of her old quilt patterns and made a card with it.  The Sunbonnet Sue is cut by hand, trimmed with lace, and the bonnet is popped.  Framed her in a Nestie, embossed with Swiss dots and ink.  The background is George Hearts...for the patchwork one, I cut 1 1/4" squares, cut on the diagonal, made a block and cut the heart out of it.  Sentiment is a sticker from Target.
