Hey Pumpkin - Just Add Ink Challenge #771

Howdy and welcome to the first challenge under our new format at Just Add Ink! We do hope you'll embrace the changes and have fun joining us in creating. For this fortnight's challenge we have upsized our classic Choose Two - now it's Choose Two or More and your options are:

I couldn't help noticing the alliteration going on in those choices, lol, and for my card I chose plaid, patterned paper and pets plus added a couple more 'p' words - purple and pumpkin. 

The pupkin is cut from watercolour card and coloured with distress inks. There are three layers to the frame and two for the sentiment.

Materials used:

• dies - Pupkin (Spellbinders), Nesting Piercing Ticket Frames and Hey Pumpkin (Waffle Flower)
• other - distress inks, blending brushes, Big Shot, black marker, Dimensionals, Hocus Pocus Worn patterned paper (Etsy)

Check out the rest of the design team's samples over on the Just Add Ink blog. I hope you'll choose two or more items from our list and have some creative fun of your own - and if you do, please share with us! Remember, you now have longer to create as the challenge doesn't close until Wednesday 22nd.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Something Wickedly Adorable This Way Comes

Two current challenges feature pumpkins on their mood boards.

  

For me at this time of year, as we're coming into spring and not autumn, pumpkins make me think Jack-o'-lanterns and Halloween. I love the fun, cutesy aspects of Halloween and that had a heavy influence on my card.

I combined some different die sets to dress up Mickey and Minnie and had such a blast putting them together. Apart from the black, everything else was cut from white card and coloured using Copics. I did have to really squeeze Mickey's head inside the opening of the pumpkin costume and Minnie's hat is not a perfect fit, lol, but they seem quite happy about it! 😉

Materials used:

• dies - Steamboat Willie, Bewitched, Pupkin, Woof-or-Treat (all Spellbinders)
• stamps - Ghostly Greetings Sentiments (Catherine Pooler)
• other - Copic markers, Sidekick, Dimensionals, MISTI

Hope you have some fun and cutesy in your day! Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
