THIS WILL STAY AT THE TOP UNTIL OCTOBER 1st. LEAVE A COMMENT FOR A CHANCE TO WIN A TOILET PAPER PUMPKIN This weekend's Clear Dollar Stamps color challenge is hosted by my friend Lisa. We are to use the colors Chocolate Chip, Pumpkin Pie, Green, Turquoise. I think I got all my colors in here for my Charlie Tag. Sorry for the poor pictures. It is definitely not fall like today..I thought I would give my blog buddies a chance to win a pumpkin. I also used the Limited Supply Challenge for this tag. To use Halloweenish colors and limit your embellisments.
I created a tutorial for you to see how I made my pumpkin. I have given these out as gifts and everyone loves them.. I made several of these and would love to send one your way. Just leave a comment on my blog and I will pick a random winner on October 1st.

I colored my image and made it into a tag for my pumpkin. I used Charlie Harvest Time (sentiment), Charlie Tweens (horse) and the Everyday Jar-Gon (candy corn).
Next I took a roll of toilet paper..
I cut a large circle of fabric approximately 20 inches wide and set the toilet paper on top. I then brought all the edges up and tucked it into the middle of the toilet paper.
I then added a 8 x 4in piece of accordian folded brown paper bag and a 9.5 x 4 in piece of fabric that I frayed a bit. I also added a cinnamon stick and raffia.
SO leave me a comment and I will add you into the drawing. I will leave this up until October 1st..(my daughter's 21st birthday) Thanks so much for coming to take a peek at my blog.
Dawn this pumpkin is adorable. That doesn't even due it justice. Its amazing. Your Charlie tag is so cute and colored fabulously. I need coloring tips from you. Wow. Thank you for playing in this weekend's challenge and bringing some spice. hee.

I've never been first in anything! Hope it brings me luck. When I saw toilet paper on SCS I had visions of wet sluggy messes of thin paper and glue but what a surprise. So easy and quick. I will definitely be borrowing this wonderful idea. You did a great job. I'll be following your blog too.
