Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Wednesday! I hope your week is moving along smoothly and you've found some crafty time. I managed to get an afternoon of coloring yesterday and decided I needed to color this larger than life Pumpkin from the Halloween Pumpkin Stamp set by Memory Box.
I recently purchased this set off eBay, it's an older set so not sure if it can be found anywhere else.
My card measures 5.5" square, so you can see how large this stamped image is. I've colored using Copic Markers and the patterned papers are from a Harvest paper pad from Scrapbook.com. The darker background appealed to me and thought it would compliment the bright orange of the pumpkin.
After coloring the image, I fussy cut and popped on foam pads. I've used a sketch from the Queen & Co. free sketch site. The sentiment is from a now retired set from Cardz TV, the sentiment was cut using a banner die from My Favorite Things.
No bells or whistles added, except for Wink of Stella added to the acorns and leaves. WOS never shows on camera and that's a shame because it gives this card the perfect amount of Autumn sparkle.
That's all for today. Have a fantastic day and until next time, Happy Crafting!

ReplyDeleteYour pumpkin card is absolutely radiant with autumn charm, Donna! The bold orange against the darker background is such a striking contrast—it really makes the image pop. I love how you used the foam pads to give the pumpkin dimension, and the subtle shimmer from the Wink of Stella must be even more magical in person. The patterned papers and sketch choice add a lovely balance of whimsy and structure, and the sentiment banner is the perfect finishing touch. A beautifully composed celebration of fall!
