I bought these adorable pumpkins at Stamp Salado yesterday, and I just had to play with them. I stamped onto some cheap watercolor paper that I found in the clearance section at Tuesday Morning several weeks ago. I then pulled out some watercolor paints and mixed some yellow and red together for a pumpkin-y color. I added some green and yellow paints to the ground and the leaf, and then I mixed some green and yellow and brown for the stems. The sky was a result of mixing some blue with a lot of water, and I accidentally had some yellow paint left on my brush, so some of that got into the sky. Makes it more autumn-y, right?? :-)
After I let it dry, I couldn't resist adding some stickles to the stems and the ground. I just had to add a little sparkle! Hee hee hee!!!
Here's to an Awesome Autumn!!

Love those pumpkins and the Stickles look great. They kind of look like pebbles on the ground.

What a gorgeous fall card you have created here! I love how you water colored this entire scene to perfection! I love the hint of stickles you added to the stems and the ground - so fun! ~Karen.

Nice pumpkins, and got a kick out of what you said about some leftover paint going into the sky!! Great Autumn saying, Holly.
