Pumpkins!!!!!

So I noticed some questions on the CTMH bulletin board about the paper pumpkins in the catalog,before I saw this I had already made my own rendition.So I thought I would show them off.

 I used Sorbet paper ,The New Ruby marker set dark to put in the veining.Then over top I used the lighter Ruby marker to blend and add depth . Then I put both bronze and red glitter gel in small amounts and spread on with my finger. Let everything dry . Then did the other side of each. I used the leaf from the box topper from the cartridge so I had a hole in the midde. I cut this 3 times using ,sorbet ,topiary and kraft cardstock . I cut the green and sorbet cardstock in peices and glued them together . I then went back with the markers and glitter and did the same as with the pumpkins . Then I looked in the catalog and made the ones they had there. I didn't follow there recipe I just made it up . I did use the Harvest Happiness stamp set . I use the same colors of cardstock because I have extras and they are my favorite. I used the new pigment inks in the same colors as the papers and here you go.

 I do think I like the ones with the extra parts added to add extra dimension. I put my first together with liquid glass and that took a long time in between to dry. The ones in the catalog that I copied I used glue dots then I didn't have to wait. Very impatient to see how they would look.

So I thought I would share and start the new part of my blog: My Gratitude Corner : Today I am truly Grateful for my friend Sarita for listening for the hundreth time to me gripe about life. I will add each day something I am grateful for so we'll see how this impacts my life and maybe even yours.
