Cooking With Cricut Challenge #2~~~Pumpkin Patch-Pumpkin Carving

Good morning!!! So it's week 2 of Cooking With Cricut challenges!!! and this week we had to create something with Pumpkin Patch or Pumpkin Carving... I created this 2 page LO to put pictures of our outing to a pumpkin patch NEXT week! 

I was brought up not going to pumpkin festivals, come to think of it, we did not do anything special for Thanksgiving either... it was till I was, maybe 15, that I started to love cooking and I started the Thanksgiving dinners at home... well, I have to confess that I have taken my kids to a Pumpking festival/patch maybe once! I know what you are thinking. LOL

I promised my BFF (my daughter's madrina "godmother") that I would take Abbita this year and take tons of pictures!!! So, with all that!! haha I created this LO... but, my true inspiration for this LO was Melin's adorable Scarecrow girl sitting on the pumpkin!!! If you have never tried one of her cuts... YOU HAVE TO!!! Her files are not expensive at all!! Go visit her shop!!!
