Love your cute button pumpkins! My heart goes out to you girl. I remember when my hubby was activated for Desert Storm. Now he's old and retired. lol! Keep yourself busy. I found that was the best medicine. Craft away, all day! Not really, that's a bit too much. But you get the idea. Visiting a pumpkin patch always gets me so ready for Fall. Hopped over from Fall Craft Challenge. Now a new follower.
ReplyDeleteI love button crafts. That turned out great. I love the variegated look of the pumpkin. Super festive.
