Thinking of you

It's Saturday!!  That means it's time for another challenge from Di's Digi Designs.

The challenge this time is: Include a Pumpkin
And here is my card for your inspiration:

 I used an image that has a pumpkin, patterned paper with lots of pumpkins and die cut pumpkin vines and leaves; got those pumpkins covered!!  Last month at the Stamp & Scrapbook Expo, I purchased some copper gilding paste from Stamplistic.  I thought copper would be a perfect accent to my Fall image and papers, so I used the gilding paste to cover my card base, the scalloped circle die cut and the leaf/vine dies cuts.  I'm hooked and in love!!  Now I can have copper card stock just by using this with white paper (even scraps for the leaves/vines!)  Now I'm trying to figure out how to get me some gold and silver and then I'd never have to buy metallic paper again!!  This next photo shows a bit more of the copper shine:

The tag was in my bits and pieces stash, I think I stamped it for a project for our kids Sunday School class last year.  The ribbon was just a small scrap that I was able to stretch  to fit what I needed.  Now it's all gone.  The papers were all scraps, too, so it's a scrappy card!

I hope you will get a chance to play along with us this challenge; it's perfect for this time of year and I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Stamps: Di's Digi Stamps "Pumpkin Wendy" digi; Verve sentiment
