Hey there, peeps! It's Thursday and time for a fun new Inspired By challenge! Here are our two prompts for this week:
Well, I just had to go with those cool little pumpkins!! I loved their little "orange-ish" stems, so I used mostly grays with a wee bit of peach thrown in....my two peaches don't really match, but I'm going with it:
I recently watched a video where the stamps were colored with watercolor markers, then filled in with a wet paintbrush. My markers didn't do quite as well a job as the ones on the video, but well enough that I could still use them! I used watercolor paper and my Arteza markers on some Close to My Heart pumpkins, then diecut them and mounted them on a scrap of Graphic 45 I had floating around on my desk!
I diecut a few layers of gray cardstock and papers, added a banner sentiment, some enamel dots and a little twine bow to complete it!
I loosely used the sketch for this week too:
How will you be inspired? Pumpkins? Rocks? Little Christmas images? Lots of fun stuff to get your creativity piqued! Share your creation with us at Inspired By and check out what the DT created as well! Thanks for popping by! Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Super duper cute, LeAnne! Love the sketch and how you colored the pumpkins! Love the scalloped diecut and the pretty paper! It all came together beautifully!
ReplyDeleteLove your card and Graphic 45 is one of my faves next to SU! TFS.
ReplyDeleteWhite pumpkins, and grey gingham? Oh I didn't even notice the peaches weren't a perfect match, they look great to me! This is an adorable card, LeAnne!
