In{k}spired Birthday Pumpkin

I had so much fun combining the Pumpkin with a sketch last time, I'm doing it again!  This month's My Pumpkin Challenge #0115 - Get Ready is getting some help from In{k}spire Me #180!
In an effort to break out of my Best Day Ever color-scheme rut, I decided to go BOLD!  It helps that I also decided to only use colors actually in the ink caddy right now, a lot of stuff is stashed in project boxes for class, lol...
Anyway, Blackberry Bliss and Tangelo Twist it is!  I made the happy discovery that the word blocks in this month's pumpkin fit PERFECTLY inside the second smallest Squares Collection framelit - yes!  That made putting together my "grid" a snap.  A curvy balloon from the Bash, and we're all set!
So, let's see YOUR pumpkin basics, gang!  Pop on over to the challenge to share!
All Shook Up Paper Pumpkin Stamp Set; plus, Birthday Bash Stamp Set; Blackberry Bliss, Tangelo Twist & Whisper White CS; Blackberry Bliss & Tangelo Twist Inks; Blackberry Bliss Striped Satin Ribbon; Tangelo Twist Sequin Trim (from Boo-tiful Bags Paper Pumpkin); Squares Collection Framelits; Decorative Label Punch.
