IT’LL BE A BLUE PUNKIN WITHOUT YOU……….
OKAY, I know pumpkins aren’t blue. But I saw some really cool ones at Christmas Tree Shops last week, and they were these colors. Something may have gotten slightly lost in the translation. It’ll be a blue pumpkin without you……or let’s see, It’s my pumpkin and it’ll be blue if I want to, blue if I want to, blue if I want to, you would be blue if it happened to you…..okay, I digress. It was the old two for one, I had to make a Thankful card for the SUO challenge, and I had to use these colors for the color challenge on SCS, and why I turned to BLUE PUMPKINS I could not tell you – but what’s done is done and here you have it, and this is all she wrote, so blue pumpkins it is!! Since I am dozing as I type I think I will just call it a pumpkin, er I mean call it a night, and head to bed and have Sweet Pumpkin Dreams, but in my dreams, they will be orange. Kind of boring, don’t you think? Orange pumpkins? Everyone has orange pumpkins but it takes someone special to make BLUE pumpkins, right? Off to bed with me. I am only making things worse. 🙂 Happy Tuesday everyone!! Until next time, Karen

November 1, 2015I just ran across your blog & love your work! I just subscribed so I can see more! I love the blue pumpkins – I'm always looking for pumpkin cards because my niece has a pumpkin patch every year & I like to send her a pumpkin birthday card for her October birthday. I'll have to do her a blue one!

November 1, 2015Karen, you're right on trend! Here's what a blue (or teal) pumpkin means: "The Teal Pumpkin Project encourages people to paint a pumpkin teal, the color of food allergy awareness, to indicate that their home is safe for trick-or-treaters with food allergies and offering non-food treats such as small toys." Love your card! It's definitely one to CASE. TFS

November 1, 2015Very lovely! Can't ever go wrong with blues and browns.
There's actually a teal pumpkin program for food allergy awareness, so your card is an inspiration to those of us who are affected by food allergy. So thank you!
