Fall’s fun …. A Riley Blog Hop!

Riley-Pumpkin-Duo-wm

Hi everyone!

Welcome to Riley and Company’s blog hop! Come join us as the Riley and Company Design Team take you on a journey discovering all sorts of fall fun! If you didn’t start at the beginning of this hop, you might want to head on over to the Riley and Company blog so that you don’t miss out on anything.

Be sure to leave a comment on everyone’s blog as you travel from blog to blog as each of the Riley and Company Design Team members will be given away one new Riley stamp to a random person who leaves a comment on their blog!

8 new Riley stamps are NOW available from the Riley and Company Store.

Riley-Pumpkin-Card-wm

I love creating shaped cards so when I saw this cute Pumpkin Riley I knew I had to make a pumpkin shaped card. Earlier in the year I purchased the Spellbinders Pumpkin nestabilities which I finally got to play with to create today’s projects.

Riley-Pumpkin-Box-wm

I also decided to create a pumpkin shape box to go with my pumpkin shaped card, and to use for some Halloween treats.

Riley-Pumpkin-Box2-wm

Here is another view of my pumpkin box…. this time round you can see all the goodies inside it.

Riley-Raking-wm

For my second card today I decided to use Riley Raking Leaves … one of the prettiest things about fall is all the different colored leaves which unfortunately we don’t get where I live. I added sewing to all the layers using my sewing machine and also added some leaf buttons to the corners of the image layer.

Well that is about it from me for today, now it is time to hop on over to the sensational Cathy Edgar and see what stunning creations she has install for you today.

Enjoy the rest of the hop and thanks for dropping by! Don't forget to leave comments on all the blogs, so that you have a chance to win some blog candy.
