October Harvest Blog Waltz

Guess what time of the month it is? Yep, the Waltzingmouse Blog Waltz is back! This waltz's theme is Autumn/Harvest. Autumn always makes me think of apple cider, pies, quality time with my kitchen & oven, loads of squash and pumpkin carving! Unfortunately the last time I carved a pumpkin was two years ago. So hopefully this October will be different.

For this blog waltz, Bountiful Basket Additions will come out to play.

Let Us Give Thanks
Stamps: Bountiful Basket Addition (Waltzingmouse Stamps)
Paper: Paper Basics Card Stock - Kraft (Papertrey Ink)
Ink: Earth Elements - Chocolate Chip (Stamping Up!); Versamark (Tsukineko)
Embellishments: Embossing Powder - Antique Gold (Martha Stewart); Soft-core Color Pencils (Prismacolor)

The pumpkins were embossed in gold and then colored in with some color pencils. A relatively simple card, but I love how it came out.

Let Us Give Thanks

I will be donating this card to Vera's Caring Hearts Drive. For more details, please read her post - it is such a great cause and I really applaud her for doing so.

Thanks for stopping by - now I'm off to go see the other wonderful work of the other ladies!
