Today is Pumpkin Toss Day so over at The Outlawz Friday Alcohol Markers challenge Carla has asked for a card with pumpkins.
I also heard a couple of weeks ago that there is really a blue gourd so I went with it. The pumpkin is by Gina K Design's set titled Autumn Splender and I stamped it three times using a masking method. The blue pumpkin is popped up for some dimension. The sentiment is by Ann-ticipations and I've had it about 5 years now and only used it a couple of time. It seemed appropriate for the coloring. I colored the edges of a piece of white card stock with a Copic to match the coloring of the orange pumpkins. That will do it for me today. It's rainy, raw and very windy here so I think we'll start a fire and play some cards this afternoon. I do hope you are all having a better day weather wise than we are. Have a wonderful day. Thanks for taking a peek here today.
Ooh, I love this, Donna! I fell in love with the blue pumpkins this year. The sentiment is just perfect with the way you colored those images.
ReplyDeleteYour afternoon sounds super. Mine not so good/. Hubby is off work today but we are washing and getting in all the outside flower pots, umbrella, etc. No fun there. It all needs washing and stored for the winter. Yuck! I'm rather be by your fire playing cards. Of course, you can eat some of that Halloween candy, too, as you play. LOL
Fun card. Love the blue gourd.
ReplyDeletePerfection Plus!!!! I LOVE this one Donna! How cute and love that blue pumpkin too! A perfect sentiment to go with a wonderful card!
ReplyDeleteStay dry and have fun playing cards! Sounds good. Jim and I will be mowing the lawn today. Very pretty and not too hot here.

ReplyDeleteBummer, I shoulda checked Outlawz! I could have entered this one! Ah, story of my life! Love your pumpkins & I didn't know until I saw a punkin card at Benzi's, that blue pumpkins existed. Your coloring is exquisite and loved your idea to color your mat paper to match your pumpkin. This is just lovely Donna. We had rain early in the day, then off & on during early afternoon. Finally cleared up, but it was a gloomy day. I napped instead of making a card I should have worked on! Have a great wkend. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteHi Donna! And so Old Man Winter begins, eh? Stay warm. I love pumpkins and your card is fantastic! Perfect coloring with the sentiment. Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome card, and I just love that blue pumpkin!! The sentiment couldn't be more perfect for this! I love it! Stay warm too! It's getting really chilly here by Sunday! I'll bring my can of pennies and come play poker with ya some weekend :)
ReplyDeleteDonna, It is cold here in Wisconsin also at least it did not rain today. Not sure where you live. You did a wonderful job coloring your pumpkins and the blue one is fantastic. Thanks for stopping by and loved your comment, you are so sweet. I see your blog babies they are adorable. I like that you made the blue pumpkin 3D it helps it to stand out more. The sentiment is perfect.
