Happy Harvest 35

Mona Pendleton | Friday, September 25, 2015 @ 7:35 PM | ,


Hi there! Tonight I'm joining along with the PTI Blog Hop
which is based on the photo inspiration shown below as well as creating a project using the chalkboard technique. 
Here's my interpretation:
I created a card featuring a combination of stamps from the Fall Elegance and Spooky Sweet 11 stamp sets:
 Even though the temps are in still in the 100's here in Arizona, I'm starting to decorate my home for Fall. Here is a my front door showing a couple of wreaths that my daughter and I made along with my sweet girl, Gretchen ;)
 For sketch inspiration, I joined along with the current Freshly Made Sketches sketch challenge:
Thanks so much for visiting. I hope you have a great weekend!
Be Sweet ;)

Mona,
Your card is lovely with wonderful Fall colors. And, wow, the wreaths on your beautiful doors are so lovely - and, your sweet and adorable Gretchen is posing perfectly!

What a clever idea to go red for the chalkboard. And your whole look with the fun pumpkin, is adorable! Great to put all over the banner. And now for the front door (doors)... Gorgeous! My husband does wrought iron as a hobby, and he's getting a hint for my Christmas present. And is that a Westie I see guarding those doors? Had one for years. Haven't been able to replace him. Beautiful fall wreaths, btw!

A fabulous card Mona!! You and Angie did a wonderful job on the wreaths. I love all things arched, so I'm swooning over your front doors! Is that Griffin peeking out from the inside!?!
