Someone needed a bit of a lift and they're a huge fan of pumpkins so I thought this might just do the trick. The pumpkin and facial expressions are from G-Rated Rubberstamps. There are several expressions in the set, I used 2. The images were stamped in Jet Black Archival Ink onto watercolor paper and colored with distress inks (yellows, oranges, browns, and greens) and a waterbrush. Around the edge I drew a line with a water-soluble graphite pencil and wiped over the line with a damp fingertip.
The conversation bubble was drawn onto another piece of scrap card stock and edged with an orange distress pad. I hand wrote the message. There's an orange layer (Sizzix Texture Stack) and a black card stock layer before all was adhered to a white card (approx. 3.5"x6.5") and will fit in a No. 6 3/4 envelope.
Perhaps I gave you a lift today...I hope so!
