The new Impression Obsession Challenge is using the theme Harvest Treats. So I used some IO dies and stamps and created this card for my entry.
I used the wheelbarrow die cut and placed some stamped pumpkins in it. I also added another pumpkin laying on the ground too. And, I tried to use the leaves as those hanging from a tree but I am not sure they were a good addition but none the less this is the way it ended up. I had blended a light blue background for the sky and a brown background for the ground using the Life Changing Blending Brushes. The pumpkins were colored with Bic Marking alcohol markers and hand cut out. The leaves were stamped with a variation of ink colors and then some were enhanced with the Bic markers. I used a Crafter's Companion glue runner to add the dies and cut out stamps. All the card stock was from Gina K. Designs and also the inks used for the blending.
Impression Obsession Products Used:

Sentiment from Mini Messages 3 stamp set CL653
Pumpkin from Holiday Icons stamp set CL980
Well I was once again busy with freezing carrots and catching up on laundry after all the company I had on the weekend. Mainly a lot of bath towels as everyone had to shower. And, then to top it off I contracted a light case of flu with stomach issues first and then it developed into a head cold. So I sort of took another break from card making. But today I felt a bit better so decided to work up at least one card. I hope all of you are having a good week. Thanks for visiting too!
God bless,
Verna
