ARE THE PUMPKINS READY YET?

The question for this month of September is are the pumpkins ready?  I’m asking because I’ve been working with paper pumpkins, ink and cardstock over the weekend!

This card was so much fun and I got a little “inky” too.  The Artistic Mix decorative masks(159178) were calling so I pulled out a pattern, Blending Brush and Mango Melody ink and got to blending.  It’s a pretty cool pattern to layer those pumpkins on don’t you think?

I used the “Direct to Stamp” technique to add colour with the  Mango Melody and Soft Succulent Stampin’ Write Markers and stamped them onto Shimmery White cardstock.  I felt that it would add a softer colour that Basic White.  These pumpkins needed some fall leaves scattered around, so more stamping and die-cutting ensued!

Here’s the list of products used.
