This is for Lee's fun CAS challenge - Punkin' Time.
Here we have Macca and his tweetheart, Marcie. Macca thinks it is time to eat something else other than pumpkin seeds, before they start to look like pumpkins!!!
Macca and Marcie were coloured with distress inks then popped up on 3D tape, in and outside the diecut birdcage. The copper panels on either side are die cuts from a tube of tomato paste sent all the way from Ireland by Sabrina. Our tomato paste only comes in plastic pots/sachets and glass jars.
Thank you for looking. I hope everyone has a lovely week.

Oh dear - these are the cutest pumpkins I have ever seen. Good enough to eat! I have just been racking my limited brain power at the moment as I don't have any pumpkin stamps and there was your card - what an inspiration. I prefer my pumpkins roasted.

Awww! Macca and Marcie should both be able to fit in the cage if they just exert a little willpower and exercise, exercise, exercise. Maybe a few laps around the cage each day. Although, pumpkin-like can be appealing too. They are such a cute couple. Love the die cut panels. The metal tomato paste tubes are really Impressive! Great card!!

Love this card & the tomato paste tube cut outs are brilliant, what a great way to use them. I like this card so much, I'm putting it in my favourites.

Susie, you make amazing creations with the birds! I have them and haven't even inked them up yet - so intimidated by all the really cool things everybody is doing with them! This is brilliant, my friend - I love it!

Leave it to you, Susie, to come up with the idea of using the Crazy Birds as 'pumpkins'! Love how you used the copper packaging for those copper panels in the background. As for me, I think I will stay away from the pumpkin seeds, and just go for the pie - my mouth is already watering with anticipation!! Inspired use of those Crazy Birds - AGAIN!!!
