Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!
Welcome October! Officially Autumn when the leaves are falling, the garden is dug up and done, the heat is on more than just taking the chill out, and pumpkins are in the grocery stores. Thanksgiving is coming up this weekend in Canada. We are having the kids over and all the grand kids too. I'll have a Halloween craft to keep them busy and hoping for nice weather to kick them outside when it gets loud. Of course, I'll follow them out there, so it'll still be loud but they will burn some of their energy. Wish I could bottle some of that up!
Onto my card for this week's Krafty Chicks Challenge : Stamp Act. As long as something is stamped, be it an image or a sentiment, it qualifies for the Stamp Act challenge.
I did a Two-For-One this week because I couldn't decide on a boy gnome or a girl one, so I made one of each. I didn't even stamp these gnomes, they are die cut from the Designer Series Paper. Now this paper has a Christmas/winter feel to it so I changes it into fall by colouring them with Stampin' Blends.
On the left we have the Before (DSP colours) and on the right the After (altered fall/Halloween version). Who said one couldn't colour on DSP??

I kept the inside of the card and the envelope real simple with the last piece of plaid DSP and a strip of card stock. Don't need to complicate it, just need to embellish.
