Simon Says Stamp | Many Thanks Pumpkin

Hello there, today I have a card to share with you using the new Turkey Day stamp set from the Simon Says Stamp Cozy Hugs release which is out today. Being a vegetarian, the turkey images didn't really appeal to me that much, but I love the pumpkins in the set, so I thought I would do something a little different with it than as intended!

I started off by taking a panel of white cardstock and stamped the larger of the two pumpkins from the Simon Says Stamp Turkey Day Stamp Set in the centre using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. 

I then made a mask for it from masking paper and placed it over the top. I stamped the second pumpkin either side of the first one and made a masks for them also. Using an ink blending brush, I blended Tim Holtz Speckled Egg Distress Ink above the pumpkins. 

The masks were removed and the pumpkins coloured with Copic markers, as well as the ground. I also added some shadows with a black Polycromos Pencil. 

The panel was then adhered to a US A2 sized white card base with foam tape. 

I took the sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Tiny Words Stamp Set and stamped it on to black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied Ranger Super Fine White Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip and added to the card with thin foam tape. To finish off, I added white gel pen dots and sparkles.

I was tempted to colour the pumpkins orange and create more of a Halloween card, but I thought they would look nice in aqua/teals too, so that's what I went with! Thank you so much for stopping by today, I really do appreciate it. I hope you have a lovely day!
