A Pumpkin Birthday Card

Still on a watercolor kick! This time I needed to combine my need for a birthday card with the already stamped out image of Unity’s Pumpkin Patch border background stamp! And being inspired by a blue pumpkin ATC creatively developed by Jeanie Marie Hays, I changed up the normal colors for this stamp!

To begin, I had already stamped out this image with Dried Marigold distress ink. I selected Daniel Smith watercolors for this card. I watercolored each pumpkin several times, leaving time to dry adjacent areas and layers. When done, I used several colored brown pens to delineate lines. I added white, orange, and blue spatters when I was done, and added more pops of dots in gold and white using Posca pens to finish the card off.

I embossed a sentiment from the Margaret Girl Kit and added coordinating pearl dots. I die cut and backed the paper with Kraft paper and a coordinating patterned paper.

Hopefully, the recipient will enjoy this seasonal birthday card as we celebrate her birthday this week! Thanks for stopping by!
