Thankful Harvest Pumpkins


Greetings friends.  Today I’m popping in with a card that moves into Autumn so beautifully.  It’s a great stamp set from Power Poppy called Fortunes of Fall .  You can also get this design in digital version here as Pumpkins and Pears.   In Canada Thanksgiving comes in October, so this is perfect for the upcoming holiday.  And this would be a beautiful centerpiece for a Thanksgiving table wouldn’t it?  


I brought it to life using Copics, finishing off the design with Prismacolour Pencils to give that purple background glow, and give the shadows in the pumpkins a little more depth.  


It’s paired with some fall themed colours in the patterned paper, and accented with this pretty ric rack paper die (MFT) and a few die cut leaves and enamel dots.  A pretty curve along the top of the patterned paper adds interest and mimics the curve of the pumpkins.  


Gratitude is such a gift.  It blesses the recipient, and I think it equally blesses the giver too!
