The Card Concept - Pumpkin Party


It's time for another challenge at The Card Concept.
Today's challenge is: Pumpkin Party
Everyone is welcome to play along using the colors, the theme, 
textures, items, or just anything from the picture as your starting point.

I was inspired by the theme to create this fun mixed media card. 
 
I was lucky enough to win this big pumpkin stamp from the Colorado Craft Company last month and had fun combining it with an Anita Jeram set I won earlier this year. 
I stamped the pumpkin in waterproof ink on watercolor paper and mask it off. I mask off the moon using a die cut circle, and inked up the sky and grass with distress inks.
I added white paint splatters to the sky for stars and then removed the mask and colored my pumpkin with Arteza Real Brush Pens. To complete my card, I stamped the grass along the bottom, added a strip of lace, the sentiment, and those adorable kitties.

Absolutely beautiful, Ester! Of course I am in love with the cute kittens, but also loving these fabulous colors and the fall scene around the cats with the stunning night sky and giant pumpkin.
Thank you so much for joining us at Four Seasons challenge!
