Hope you can cling to {day 31}

For Dina's final challenge ( seen here) there is an inspiration photo to look at. and I remembered I had this PTI die set and I don't think I have ever played with it, so the panel under the pumpkin sections was the scrap of the background I made for Angie's challenge and I found that, once I placed the sections on it, you really cannot see that layer, so I did distress and ink the section sides trying to let the background peek through a little. this Sentiment is the reason I own this verve set ( Words of wisdom) I had to get it after a few HYCCT's ago because, ( we can credit Sabrina with that one) hahaha. seriously though, pumpkins can turn into coaches on Halloween right? 

For Lori Craigs final challenge it is to use roses on the project (somehow anyway you want) So, I am not so sure it shows up very well but, I have an wild orchard 3-d rose in the lower left corner of the printed paper roses in the center square on this.
that sentiment is from Impression Obsession.
(and this card is the second one that needed to be boxed)

For Lydia's final challenge (seen here) the idea was to hand draw a finish line for your image to cross. And I used a wordy sentiment. that I like and have had forever. This particular quote my grandpa has framed in his home office so, its something I have seen for nearly all my life and it was one of the first Penny Black stamps I ever bought. I thought it would go well with a map so, the printed paper was torn and distressed to add to the aged look.
