FOSTV CHALLENGE #40

If I'm posting a new challenge for FOSTV, it must be Monday! And just what do you think we are up to this week? Well, we're using CHIPBOARD.

Now, I thought about this one a lot before I set about getting it done. Flowers? NO. Words? NO. A flourish or 2? NO. Nothing was really smacking me in the face until my other half pulled into the driveway with the trailer loaded with hay bales & corn stalks. Then it hit me & I made a mad dash to my embellishment boxes. I knew what I wanted was there, but exactly where... hmmmmm.....yeah, almost 1 hour later I found it. Perfect! Especially considering the fact that I had already hit the pumpkin stand on the corner & hauled home 27 pumpkins. (I know, I know! But I never do anything in a small way) So, here is my card using CHIPBOARD.


 
 
What I've used:

AUTUMN SPLENDOR stamp set for the pumpkin (a GREAT new fall release)

AGED CRANBERRY card stock
AGED SUNFLOWER card stock
scrap of cream card stock
Memento Rich Cocoa ink
COPIC MARKERS
CB embossing folder
Bo Bunny chipboard
TH distress ink in Tea Dye

I hope that you have a chance to play along with us this week.

  2. 27 pumpkins - that is a lot of pumpkin pie (which incidentally I can't stand - give me apple any day!) I assume you are actually going to decorate for fall and your card fits right in there!
