In EVERYTHING Give Thanks - Pumpkin

Good Morning!

I have two projects to share with you.

I have a NEW Word Art Wednesday challenge project and

a matching card for a NEW Freshly Brewed Designs challenge. 

This weeks WAW Anything Goes Challenge scripture is FREE for you!

*it always is*

You do not have to use it to create your project. 

The challenges are always anything goes using family friendly 

and uses an encouraging or uplifting sentiment. 

This weeks WAW Sponsors: Daydream Designs  and Heart & Soul Rubber Stamp Co.

We also have a new Freshly Brewed Challenge!

This challenge is to create anything using COLORS OF FALL.

Simple enough right?

Here are my projects:

This was such a fun project to make. I actually cleaned out my craft room. We moved furniture around and I HAD to go through EVERYTHING!!! So I totally did SHOP MY STASH this week. I cut my scrap pile in half by setting a box aside for some friends to go through. The rest will go to a few little girls at dance. I taught a few girls how to make cards and they are hooked.

I cut out several circles using the plantin schoolbook cricut cartridge then cut out a large scalloped circle, leaves, and flourishes using the accent essentials cartridge. The image was paper pieced by printing the image onto patterned cardstock. 

The image was cut out using a lacy circles spellbinder die. 

I love the glitter!!! It is called  green agate by Martha Stewart. It is a very light, silvery green. 

So pretty. I outlined the pumpkin using a glue pen an sprinkled glitter over it. 

I used an old watercolor brush from the kids craft supplies to brush away the access glitter. 

For the paper pumpkin, I traced the edges with aleens tacky glue and sprinkled the glitter over it. 

I tried to get a photo of the crystal fine glitter on the edges of the pumpkins leaves and stem, 

but it didn't work out too well for me ;)

Just know its there, lol!

Here is a photo of the top of the pumpkin
