Hi friends!

We are half way through September ~ can you believe it!

It feels like we are time warping through this year!

Today I am sharing another card for

the Newton's Nook Designs IPC Design Team

with a FUN inspiration photo for the month of September.

Create however it inspires you -

from the fall vibes to the darling black cat, the color palette, etc.

You can see a funny spoof here!

For this week, I made a spooky cornfield!

I did a self challenge to take a spring-ish stamp set and turned it

into an autumn one & am smitten with how this turned out!

Here's what I did:

I started with a card base using the Frames & Flags die set

and added it to the card base - made with a corner rounder, trimmer cut

cardstock. Using the Cloud Stencil, I did a light ombre cloud

blend and colored, die cut and popped up the Spring Heights cats.

For added drama, I used fall colors and added flowers from Aloha

Newton and the pumpkins from Pumpkin Tails .

The sentiment is also from that set and die cut with Basic Frames.

Finally, I added the bats from Just Batty to complete the spooky

cornfield harvest look!
