Fall Frolic Day #2

Welcome to Day #2 of the Fall Frolic Event! Today I’m going to share with you an adorable little pumpkin card.

Both pumpkins and the leaf image come from an oldie but a goodie, the "Autumn Harvest" Stamp Set. These images just scream for Aqua Painters, so I decided to try something new. Watercoloring on Colored Cardstock is what makes these pumpkins so smashing!

ALY’S HELPFUL HINTS:

To spice up your pumpkins, just give an Aqua Painter/Classic Ink swipe where you want your shaded areas to be. With the colored cardstock underneath, watercoloring these pumpkins to perfection is very simple!
Hemp Twine tied in a bow around the stem is what adds the perfect extra touch to pumpkin number one.
For less rubbing stress, you’ll want to apply your RubOn before stamping the tone on tone background. Don’t worry, the ink will resist around the RubOn and you can still stamp wherever you desire — but if you apply the RubOn first, it’s going to be stubborn sticking over top of the Classic Ink.
6" x 3" Cards are the perfect size to hold money and checks! This particular card started with a 3" x 12" piece of cardstock before being folded in half – that way, you can tie your ribbon around the card without it’s fold getting in the way.
This snazzy way of tying a ribbon was done by threading through the Slot Punch!
