2019 card challenge - October prompt

Hello all!

Well, can you believe it? We're on the final stretch of 2019.

For this month's prompt we're looking to the outdoors and harvest (perhaps even a little spookiness):

So here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Foliage, trees, woodland
• Autumnal scenes
• Give thanks
• Little houses - think winter village scenes, new home cards, a haunted house
• Pumpkins - even a little pumpkin spice seems to be making the rounds in crafting so you could even go with coffee
• Circle patterns - dots, stacked circles (like the pumpkin tower) remind me of pompom trim
• Wreaths for all season - great if you have wreath-style stamps, but you can also build your own wreaths with boughs and seasonal elements
• Wildflower silhouettes - try stamping grass or meadow flowers in black on a blended background
• A greeting with "Happy" in the phrase
• Floral background paper
• Garden, kitchen or farm themes (Farmer's Market from Carta Bella comes to mind and I think there's an autumnal version of this line too)
• A triangle - that slice of cake made me think triangles, which also makes me think of Christmas trees
• Buffalo plaid and checked patterns
• And last but not least, go all out for Halloween!

Hopefully there are a few grains of inspiration there that will tempt you to give this challenge a go! :)
