Happy Harvest?

***If you're here for Kitchen Sink Stamps Monday, scroll down to the post below.***

I’m still trying out my newest Papertrey Ink stamp sets. Here, I used the pumpkin image from the new Boo to You set along with some older sets along with the colors in Dawn’s latest color challenge--Melon Berry, Hibiscus Burst, Spring Moss, and Vintage Cream.

I love the new formula Spring Moss ink! It gives a beautiful, rich image. Here, I used it to repeatedly stamp the leafy border from Beyond Basic Borders on a matching Spring Moss panel. I flipped the image over each time I stamped it for a nice pattern.

The pumpkin image is stamped in Melon Berry ink with a Spring Moss stem. I added a simple bright pink flower at the base of the pumpkin, then layered the matted image on the leaf-stamped panel. I stamped the “happy harvest” sentiment from Vintage Picnic on a strip of Melon Berry cardstock and rounded the edges before attaching it to the card. I’m not exactly sure what event I’d give a card with this sentiment for, but it seemed to fit the card’s theme . . . Anyway, I added a knotted piece of Spring Moss ribbon to finish off the card.
