I've had the main image for this for a couple weeks and just hadn't made it into a card but I was on a roll with the sketch last night. Not a real "creative" roll since I did the same thing in different colors on three cards, but hey, they're DONE and I need a bunch of October birthday cards.
I got the idea for this from Pinefeather's card here: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I stamped Linen in Certainly Celery, then Happy Happy Birthday in Always Artichoke. Then I stamped the pumpkin and stem with VersaMark, embossed with clear powder, and sponged over. I like the look and I'll be making several more this weekend I think. I was originally going to do something with more Certainly Celery on the card but I liked the Vintage Violet with the Pumpkin and Artichoke instead. And now I *have* to buy more Pumpkin Pie cardstock because I'm out. :p The cardfront is sponged with Pumpkin Pie ink around the edges.

Very cute! I will definitely have to CASE this one...maybe even twice! My 2 older children are celebrating their birthdays in October. They would love this card.
Thanks for sharing!
