The Great Pumpkin Blaze Take Two - FMS607

 



Before Covid shut down the world we took Emma to the Great Pumpkin Blaze down along the lower Hudson River in the Catskill Mountains not far from West Point.  And last weekend we got to do it again with both grandkids this time.  It was as spectacular as we remembered and the kids were mesmerized by thousands of lit up pumpkins that created everything from villages to amusement park rides to undersea creatures and of course ghosts.









It was great fun on a perfect fall night! So I think I know where the inspiration for my card today came from!




Amy's sweet sketch was perfect for a pile of pumpkins!  Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches!



Stamp Sets: Pick of the Patch, Harvest Hello

Your little pumpkins and crow are CAW-sing a smile!

Oh my gosh! I love this plaid paper. I've been looking high and low for a pretty Fall plaid. May I ask where you got this?

Hi Sharon ….the paper is from Stampin’ Up! It is in a designer series paper assortment called Them Bones…..
