The pumpkins in the garden are getting bigger, fatter, and more orange each day. The rest of the crops are pretty much done for the year even though my tomato plants are still looking healthy and are massive in size. I was inspired to dig out this delightful image from Sandi Huggett which I used nearly every fall; sometimes for Halloween, sometimes for Thanksgiving. This year it's just for a celebration of the harvest season.
I started with water colors on the sky and ground, then colored the rest of wagons and pumpkins with ProMarkers. I cut the image with an Unbranded, Cross Stitch Rectangle die. I wanted dp which had fall colors but also had blue. I found two scraps of dp in my basket, neither of which was large enough to cover the entire card front so I combined them.
The brown strip is the back side of one of those papers. The sentiment was printed and cut with another die from that same Cross Stitch set. I inked the edges before adhering it to the top corner. I added the three metal brads and the wrapped-string bow and called it finished before it got away from me. :-D
