I love fall with the beautiful change of color in the leaves and all the variations of colors in the pumpkins and gourds available at the Farm Stands here in New England. Today I got out a new purchase, the fun Pumpkin Duo Colorize dies from Tim Holtz/Sizzix to create this card.
A few weeks ago I made a stack of the pumpkins using the dies and got them out to make this card today
I had made panels of orange and green colors by smooshing a piece of water color paper into a mix of oranges and browns Distress Ink on my craft mat spritzed with water and then doing the same using greens and browns. (sorry I didn't write down the colors I had used) Then I die cut the pieces for each pumpkin and assembled them.
I love buying the blue, grey and bumpy pumpkins for my steps every fall!
