Fall Fun Blog Hop



Welcome to the Fall Fun Blog Hop! A group of online buddies decided the holiday weekend in the US would be a GREAT time to get inky together, and so we've put together a fall themed blog hop to inspire you as Autumn approaches. As you meet our stampy bloggers today, you may discover that some have goodies for you, so be sure and visit everyone on the list. We have hoppers from all over the globe today, and they are amazing artists.

Thanks for visiting us - grab yourself a nice fall beverage and enjoy!

Here is the full list of our blog hoppers today:
I know I'm waaaaaay down on the list, so thanks for hanging in there! :)

I'm sure you've seen a fair amount of Fall- and Autumn-themed cards and projects by now. You know: Halloween, Thanksgiving, pretty leaves. Well ... not me. Nope. When I thought "Fall" the following little ditty popped into my grey matter:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
All the king's horses and all the king's men,
Couldn't put Humpty together again.

Oh, wrong "fall"? Kinda like the guys I went to college with who wore Hawaiian shirts to a Western party, and when queried replied, "Oh, too far West?" Yeah, that fall.

So here you go: my "fall" card:


(hee hee) The image is from Mo Manning (who rocks these sorts of things, dontcha think?) and I made up the sentiment. Most everything else is from my MASSIVE shipment of Webster's Pages goodies I got with a Groupon. The green pieces are all my doing.

Ready for the next stop? Head on over to Sue's blog and see what she's got cooked up for us!

Thanks for stopping by!
