THIS WEEK’S THEME AT THE

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

THANKS/THANKSGIVING

Featuring products by

HERO ARTS

You do not have to use the featured company to join in.

But… If you have some of their product in your stash

We would LOVE to see them used.

Here is my take on this challenge.

For this card I used the following product

GRATEFUL PUMPKIN

Hello everybody!

Coming to you today with a fun card featuring Hero Arts.

To start this card, I started with a card base made from

 my favorite Cardstock Neenah Desert Strom.

Next, I die cut out an Oval from white cardstock to fit on the front.

I did thing a bit differently, and stamped on the sentiment first, because

 all the elements of the card are evolving around this oval.

I placed the oval on the front of the card a drew a light pencil line around the oval.

I will use this pencil line as a guide to stamp my leaves behind the oval using Distress Ink.

Next, I stamped my pumpkin and leaves onto white cardstock.

I colored these items in using Distress Watercolor Pencils.

While I was waiting for the watercolor to dry, I glued my oval piece to the front of the card.

I also added a little bit of orange to the vines on the front.

My watercolor pumpkin is now dry, I fussy cut the pumpkin and the leaves.

I added those to the oval on the front of the card with foam tape.

I also added on my favorite gems.

My card is ready and….
