Passion for promarkers - Autumn/Fall...

Good morning, dear Blogging buddies!  Another Tuesday has rolled around, so it's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers...this week it's the lovely Julie in the hostess chair and she has chosen a seasonal theme of 'Autumn/Fall' so whether it be Autumnal colours or something that reminds you of Autumn, we'd like to see what your creativity comes up with...
We're being sponsored by Sassy Studios who are offering one lucky winner 4 digital images from their store...But don't forget....to be in with a chance of winning the prize, you MUST use your Letraset mediums!...Good luck!...
For my card I was inspired by Taylored Expressions Share Joy Challenge #7 with it's fun sketch and tic-tac-toe board (unfortunately the challenge ended before this post, so I couldn't enter but maybe next time!?!)  I also took inspiration from the fabulous squashes that I saw in Lidl whilst out with my Mum and sister...

...The image is the pumpkin digi from A Year in Cards which I pasted into PS and manipulated to create the different shape squashes.  They were coloured with my Pro/Flexmarkers and here's the colour list for all you Letrasetters :
Left pumkpin - Ivory, Vanilla, Mustard, Moss, Forest Green, Sea Green
Centre pumkpin - Gold, Honeycomb, Pumpkin, Bright Orange, Spice
Right Pumpkin - Sunflower, Gold, Honeycomb, Nutmeg
Stalk - Pastel Beige, Khaki
I decoupaged the two outer pumkins using 3D glue gel and added some die cut Cottage Cutz oak leaves inked with Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge and Mustard Seed.  The paper is from the House set of Another Play on Words and the sentiment was made using individual letter stamps. To embellish I added some orange polka dot ribbon, wire twirls, a printed insert and my obligatory pearls!
So there you go!   I hope you can join in with our seasonal challenge this week and look forward to seeing all your Autumnal makes.  Don't forget to hop on over to the Passion for Promarkers blog to see what my talented teamies have created for your inspiration!
Crafty hugs,
Lisa x

A beautiful Autumnal card Lisa. Those pumpkins look wonderful and the oak leaves work perfectly with them.
Hope the marathon stock making is coming along nicely, it definitely takes up quite a lot of my time. You look at the days work and feel pleased with how much you have made but it only takes up a small space on the table :/ I am constantly making things all through the month for my stall so I understand the task you have to start from scratch to fill a table. It will all be worth it though when the day arrives - good luck and have fun.
