Krafty Girl Danielle is hosting the mid-inspiration post today!
Can you guess what my favorite thing about fall is
from my card today? I have a love of all things
pumpkin! Each and every one of them is unique
(just like snowflakes in winter). We love to
decorate with them, carve them up on Halloween
and of course have all kinds of pumpkin baked
treats and special drinks! YUM - so YUM!
Keeping in line with the challenge themes
I used the Autumn Pumpkins stamp set
and the gorgeous Pumpkin Patch layering stencil!
To create this background, I first sprayed the stencil
with some Goblin Green ink re-inker (mixed with a little water)
and turned it over onto a piece of white cardstock.
Once that panel dried, I laid the first piece of the stencil
on that panel and then used it as an embossing
piece to get the raised pumpkins on the cardstock.
After embossing, I then used the stencil again to
ink the pumpkins with Pumpkin Patch ink.
This technique gives it such a great texture and
detail with the raised and colored parts.
Lastly I used the second piece of the stencil
to ink the peduncles (stems) and leaves.
I really love how it turned out!
To finish the card I added a couple layered
oval die cuts and the row of pumpkins that
I colored with my copic markers and then
fussy-cut to put on the panel.
