You & Me, Pumpkin!

1/8/2014

Ahh, I love the sight of Pumpkin in the New Year! Jess is kicking us off with a faBOO theme challenge, too - My Pumpkin Challenge #114 - "You & Me," however you want to show it!
This is the perfect time for me to try my hand at some light scrap-booking, NOT something I'm famous for, for sure. However, it's pretty hard to resist with the seriously cute Real Life Journal that came for the December kit! With this You & Me theme, I figure I can use this month to make a sweet little book about us for hubby, just in time for Valentine's Day! Hope you'll follow along with me - I'm pretty nervous to try this!
I'm opening with the cover, of course - future entries will show a couple pages at a time!
So, what are you and YOUR Pumpkin up to this year??
Paper Pumpkin-Real Life Journal; plus, Perfect Pennants stamp set; Banners framelits; Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Strawberry Slush, Pumpkin Pie & Summer Starfruit CS; Coastal Cabana, Strawberry Slush & Versamark inks; Pool Party Embossing Powder; Summer Starfruit Satin Stitched Ribbon; Coastal Cabana & Strawberry Slush Stretch Ruffle Trim; Owl Builder Punch (for the tiny hearts!)

Hello Heather! I had a hard time finding your blog on Bloglovin. I finally got it to come up by getting on my desktop. I love your creations! Your journal is over the top! What did you use for the strip of polka dots going down the middle? I thought it might be washi tape, but I couldn't find it in the catalog. Please let me know. Thanks! I'm so glad I found your blog! I love your work:)

Thanks so much, Julie! My blog might be hard to find since it really lives under my basic general site, heatherspages.net. Glad you were able to make it happen, though, I have to go check out bloglovin now!
The strip of polka dots is stamp from the Perfect Pennants stamp set - I SAMJ'ed the strip all the way down, heat-embossing in Pool Party with each addition. I wanted the color to stand out on the chip board... Hope this helps!
