I have finally found my mojo and done a little bit of creating!
That...or I was feeling pressured to get these cards made so I could send them out on time!! =D
I'm playing along with One Layer Wednesday, but as usual, my cards aren't one layer, so I'm only playing along in my head! ;-)
Super simple cards today. I made several versions of the same layout. I used a Martha Stewart apple punch to create the pumpkin shapes. I cut off the apple leaf and rounded the bottom to get more of a pumpkin look.
I colored the stem with Distress Markers and then drew pumpkin lines with a Distress Marker too. I LOVE the "thin" side of the Markers!!
I cut various mismatched shapes for pumpkin eyes and mouths from black cardstock. I like them looking all uneven! Makes them look hand-carved, right?? I adhered two pumpkins to the card blank, then popped up the third in the middle for some dimension.
Finally, I stamped the sentiment to the side in black ink.
Seriously, so easy. And they can be made assembly-line style too! =D
Supplies:
Paper: The Paper Studio (kraft card blanks); Bazzill (orange and black cardstock)
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Black Soot); Distress Markers (Forest Moss, Rusty Hinge)
Stamp: Stampabilities (Happy Halloween)
ETC: Martha Stewart (apple punch); Zig Two-way Glue Pen; EK Sucess (3D Dots)
And that's it for me today! Thanks so much for stopping by!!

These are so so so cute! Such an sophisticated look to them with the kraft paper background and the cute cluster of pumpkins!
I love the way you turned these apples into pumpkins and the way you layered them! These are really cute, Cynthia!
