Kitchen Sink Monday: Easy as 1, 2, 3

It's time for another Kitchen Sink Stamps Crew Challenge. This month's hostess is Angela. She's challenged us to a 3 step challenge she calls "Easy as 1, 2, 3": use 1 pop dot, 2 embellishments, and 3 different stamped images.

Here's what I came up with for the challenge. I used the new Multistep Pumpkins stamp set for my main image. I stamped two of the pumpkins in shades of orange ink. The smaller pumpkin is cut out and attached to the panel with a pop dot.

I used the "boo!" sentiment from the Ready 4 Any Holiday set for as my third stamped image. I stamped it repeatedly on an olive panel in coordinating ink. This may be stretching the "3" just a bit, but I still only used 3 different images--LOL!

The stamped panels are layered on a piece of designer paper from Basic Grey's new Eerie collection. I kept the embellishments pretty simple. A celery twill tape tab is on the left side of the image panel. I added a trio of brads along the right side of the sentiment panel.

Be sure to check out what the rest of the Kitchen Sink Crew has done with the Easy as 1, 2, 3 challenge. Here's where you can find them:
