Freshly Made Sketches #749

 
This week our teammie Jen B brings us Freshly Made Sketches #749.
 
 
Here's my take on her sketch.
 

I know exactly what you're screaming....."PINK PUMPKINS??"
This is when I tell you that these are the fifth batch of pumpkins I colored 
today and I don't know why I threw in a pink one. For shock value?
 
After coloring each of the pumpkins I ran them through embossing folders
because I thought they looked a little flat. And now they look like pin cushions.
 

For the diagonal element I ran a strip of white card stock through an embossing
folder with sentiments. I was going to leave the card without a sentiment but decided 
at the last minute to run a strip of gray card stock through the same sentiment folder 
and trimmed one out. 
 
Now it's your turn. Play along if you can and stop by the Freshly Made Sketches 
blog to see how the rest of the team interpreted Jen's sketch. You have until Monday,
August 17th to link up your card. Hope to see you in the gallery!

  1. Pumpkins seem to come in a lot more colors these days and pink is one of them. This pink pumpkin totally fits in and I love the embossing! I also love this reminder that fall isn't too far off. I'm so ready for fall!

  2. Haha! Your observations on your card cracked me up! I LOVE your design interpretation - whether the pumpkins are pink or purple or pin cushion-y! The texture on them is what made me click on them to see what you had on your blog and take a closer look. Gorgeous!!
