Hello Pumpkin!

Happy Monday Friends! Hope that you are all well. It was a beautiful day here in New England...sunny, cool...my favorite time of the year!

Autumn is definitely my favorite season. My card for today has some of the wonderful colors of fall and of course, a big ole pumpkin. My inspiration came from Tuesday's Challenge from The Cat's Pajamas. You can find the inspiration photograph here. I knew that I wanted to use the Hello Pumpkin set from TCP, but I wasn't quite sure how the whole thing was going to come together until I came home from school today and saw the sketch from the Mojo Monday Challenge blog. You can find the sketch here. My main image is paper pieced with some My Mind's Eye paper and colored up with Copic Markers (C9, R29, R29, YG95, YR16, and YR18.) I used a wide assortment of papers...Recollections, My Minds Eye, Memory Box, and Papertrey Ink card stock. The ribbon is from May Arts and the button is from PTI.

That's about it for this creation. Thanks so much for visiting with me this evening...Toodles! :D
