Whatever Wednesday - Buttoned Up Pumpkin


Thanksgiving is here at least - here's a pumpkin card to help you celebrate.

My favorite part of this card is the grouping of embellishments on the leaves.  I grouped a brad, two buttons, and a hemp twine bow, each one matching a color on the card.

Paper piercing down the side with the help of a mat pack and adorned edges on a Night of Navy cs mat make it even prettier!   The Night of Navy edges are punched with the Scallop Trim Border Punch and the Scallop Trim Corner Punch.  If you need a refresher in how to align these punches to create a professional looking piece of scalloped cs, just let me know!

The stamping of the pumpkin and leaves is done with a Stazon Jet Black inkpad on watercolor paper.  The watercolor paper resists buckling when wet, so it is the best paper choice when watercoloring with an Aqua Painter and Watercolor Wonder Crayons!  And, those are the products that I used to color here.  The new Watercolor Wonder Crayons will be available for purchase within the next few weeks!  Stampin' Up is changing suppliers and has been awaiting the return to inventory of this awesome product, so let me know in the near future if you want to add them to your Christmas wish list.

Here's another card that would look nice colored with Watercolor Wonder Crayons!
