This is for LSC131 and I tried to do a triple challenge on one card.
Challenge 1 to use three Halloween or autumn fall stamps on one card.
Challenge 2 To use a non traditional animal for a Halloween or fall card
Challenge 3 To make a Halloween or fall Tent Topper Card.
I think I accomplished all three challenges on this one card. I have never made a tent topper before and for some reason couldn't find instructions in my search. I'm sure because I was too inpatient. I think I did it right???????
I stamped my main image which is a House Mouse Happy Hopper image that I think is darling. I could just see a pile of pumpkins laying on that big, fat rabbit in the wheelbarrow and that poor little bunny pulling the big load down the path. I masked the main image and stamped pumpkins from the Loads of Love Accessories to create the little field of pumpkins to be harvested. I stamped the pumpkins images from Thoroughly Thankful to cut out and to pop up on the big rabbit and the tnet topper.
All images are colored with brushes and reinkers. The ground area is sponged with caramel and the grass area was brushed stipple style with a dry brush in brushed across artichoke pad. I filled in texture with my mini fern and ibb. I sponged the complete scene with mustard ink.
Don't you think that big bunny has a Jack Benny kind of look on his face. He just needs his hand up to his chin. For those of you who are too young to remember Jack Benny.....well...you know!!! I am old.

Yes, I see that Jack Benny expression too! LOL, isn't it funny and amazing that someone can draw that into an animal stamp?!
Love this sweet scene, and appreciate so much all of the work that goes into making it! Amazing Kittie! (p.s.--can't wait to see you again at regionals!)

Okay, you. I'm cruising through your gallery trying to catch up, and I just don't think I can take much more! I'm running out of adjectives to describe your awesome work, Kittie. I love everything you do and you continually amaze me with your scenery work. This is so ADORABLE! Love the pumpkin patch. Marvelous, absolutely marvelous!

This is so sweet, I don't know whether to feel sorry for the bunny or not. Maybe he's going to be making some pumpkin pie for later! Very very nice card!
