Pumpkin Girl (TSC1014, SUO29)

Our Twisted Sistahs Challenge for this week was presented by Sillyfilly. Sylvia asked us to make a fall card with something metallic on it. I used retired Pumpkin Pie brads on mine. The image is from "Greeting Card Kids" and the leaves are from "Lovely as a Tree". I used Water Color Crayons and an Aqua Painter to water color the main image. The base is Pumpkin Pie, the main image was stamped on Naturals Ivory with Black Stazon, and the leaves were stamped on More Mustard with Early Espresso ink. The mat behind the main image is also Early Espresso. The DSP is retired and so is the Felt Ribbon. I used the Pinked Hearts Border Punch on one side of the main image panel. This is also for the SU Only Challenge #29. Everything used to make this card is from Stampin' Up! Thanks for stopping by!

I know I haven't been posting a lot lately, but I'm care giver for my 96 year old mother with Alzheimer's. She was in the hospital last week and is not doing so well. She requires much more attention than she used to, so I've been very busy tending to her needs. I'm sure I'll be back on a more regular basis eventually. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

The leaves are the perfect complement to the other elements in this card. Love the little girl on the pumpkin and how you tied everything together. Thanks for joining with the SUO Challenge Team this time around.
