Pumpkin Pie, Pear Pizzazz and Baked Brown Sugar! This yummy trio of colors is the foundation of this week’s Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge (PPA174). It’s oh so timely for fall and my Halloween card!
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- I combined the hexagon images from Six-Sided Sampler and Perfectly You (a Hostess Rewards Exclusive) stamp sets.
- Nothing could be simpler than cropping the images with the Stampin’ Up! Hexagon Punch. Love it! Buy the Six-Sided Sampler and Hexagon Punch as a bundle and SAVE 15%. Wood-Mount Bundle (132725) OR Clear-Mount Bundle (132724).
- Brights Designer Buttons dress up the hexagons and are just plain fun. I keep them in place with Glue Dots.
- A touch of Pumpkin Pie 1/8″ Taffeta Ribbon adds a little polish.
- When pulling a ribbon knot tight, hold one side firm and pull with the other (meaning, don’t pull both sides at once). You’ll get a much neater result.
