Hello! Since Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I have a lot to be thankful for, I thought I'd throw in this quick card made with an old Stampin Up set, Little Layers II. I've been fretting over the composition of a Christmas card for over a week now so this was a nice break - a clean and simple card. The background is stamped with Apricot Appeal and Pumpkin Pie on a peach colored cardstock and mounted on Early Espresso. The pumpkin is colored with "mixed media" - Copics, Prismacolor markers, and colored pencils. I didn't seem to have the right shades in any one category. I'm not sure if you can see it in the picture, but the pumpkin is covered with Glossy Accents. A nice chocolate ribbon from JoAnn's and a corner punch on the inside cardstock and it's done! And the bonus was, I got an order for eight of them. Who would have thought?
