Welcome to the monthly Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrator Fun Folds Blog Hop, September 2026 edition. Autumn has arrived, the weather is  transitioning and pumpkins are everywhere. Even right here.

Question, are you a carver or a painter?  Do you carve or paint pumpkins for October decor? Historically, I’ve carved. However, the colors in today’s featured project may change that.

I received this sweet thank you card from my friend Peggy Toldy of Stamp Sisters Ink. I love the colors of these “Painted Pumpkins” featured in the Painted Patch Suite Collection from Stampin’ Up! Her card has it all, texture, stenciling, die-cuts and more. All these elements come together for this beautiful Easel card.
