Give Thanks

Hello friends!  It's Vicki here!  Autumn has officially started and I love thinking about those fun Fall memories that I've had with my kids growing up.  We used to go to a local orchid and pick out the pumpkins that we would carve out for Halloween.  They had such fond memories of the place that they enjoy going back there as adults!  This image really reminded me of those special memories:

This is the very sweet digital image called "A Girl and Her Pumpkin" released for this month by Crissy Armstrong.  I've got her colored in with Copic markers and stenciled some clouds in the background.  I cut her out with the "Hand-Stitched Nested Rectangle dies" and mounted her over some fun Fall glittery leaves and a strip of burlap ribbon.  I've taken the "Painted Sayings clear stamp set" and stamped some of the images with white ink in the background and then I took the words and gold heat embossed them over the vellum and cut it out for a banner in the bottom right portion of my card.  Lastly, I've added some gold sequins and filled the centers with a gold Stickles glitter.

Hope you are enjoying all things Autumn!  Thanks for stopping in!

Here are the Whimsy Stamps products that I've used on my card today:
