Happy Afternoon! I'm getting a late start with my post -- my son took a little nasty spill at school yesterday and came home with a knee the size of cantelope and it was turning all shades of blue. The pediatrician confirmed nothing broken or sprained ... just bruised and painful and he limped off to school today like a trooper. And right thereafter I was "volunteered" to help with the AR testings and book selections for the 1st graders. Fun stuff!
But I'm finally up and posting - and using the most adorable Popping Pumpkin Riley - he's definitely among the top faves of all my Rileys! The bi-weekly challenge this week is brought to us by the warm and wonderful Laurie!
She asked us to create a card: As fall is in the air, Laurie has given us a leaf challenge, include a leaf or leaves on your card or project! I made a port-hole card using Fall colored papers - the Pink front one is actually filled with little pumpkins ... I added flowers at the last thought to fill in the white space as I didn't realize there was as much until the card was done! It looked like Riley was just floating in mid-air so I gave him so faux leaves :)
We'd love to see your Leaf cards and projects in our bi-weekly Riley and Company Challenge! You can link up your cards here. Once you have created your card/project come back here and place a comment with a link to your card/project to this post so that we can see what you created. If you upload your card/project to SCS don't forget to include the keyword RILEY2011. We can't wait to see what you create!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Big hugs,
Bigger Blessings!
