FWF: Autumn Blessings

Happy Friday everyone! Are you ready for the weekend? I am! We are going to the pumpkin patch tomorrow to pick out our pumpkins for Halloween. :)

In honor of the pumpkin patch and all things fall, this is the card I have to share with you today. I actually made it for WCMD, the challenge was to use the colors pumpkin, chocolate, and vanilla. YUM! I wanna eat those colors/flavors! This card uses the pumpkin from Sept 09 KOTM, Go Ahead Wish... The words are from the old Birds of a Feather set. I de-stressed the Cuttlebug background with some brown ink to give it a more earthy look. I have NO idea what the DP is, but I LOVE it so I'm guessing it's Basic Grey. :) Then I just finished with a couple brads.

But WAIT! There's more!!

Unity Flair!
Leave me a comment and I'll draw a winner for the AWESOME grab bag of 25 random Unity stamps. Woot! Woot! I will post the winner right here on my blog AND on the Unity FWF Sign Up thread Saturday morning! Good luck!
