Happy Saturday! I hope all of you are enjoying your weekend. The family is watching Hawaii football against Washington State. I love football season; it's the most relaxing time in the year for me. For some reason the sound of football playing in the background pacifies my overworked soul. I believe this all stems form my childhood. I remember waking up on Saturday and Sunday mornings to eggs and bacon and my daddy watching the crushing sounds of football. Those mornings were some of the best memories that I have to hold onto with my dad.
So here is the cutie from All That Scraps. CC Designs SugarPlums Pumpkin Emma rubber stamp is my focal point. The extra pumpkins I added on her wagon and at the side holding the sentiment is from the CC Designs SugarPlums Pumpkins rubber stamps.
I had this card ready to go and colored on my desk for a week now. I had a problem with how I was going to put together in a card. The focal point is a bit large and took up lots of space and...there was the problem of that big white space above the wagon and behind her head. I try and stay away from too much white "dead" space."
Copics used... (Sorry there are many pens that I used for this stamp, but I want to try and add more color to my drawings in the coming months. I think adding more colors adds a touch of realsim to the figures that might else not be there. )
Supplies: White CS, Really Rust CS, Basic Grey Mellow, Chocolate Chip CS, Old Olive Ribbon, Oval Punch, Linen Thread, Buttons, Prima Flower,
Wow! You are the Copics Queen... Love your creation! Thanks for sharing!
Go Warriors!!

I would have to say this card was so worth the wait. It is AWESOME! I love the deep rich colors that you used. I have this set of stamps and I just purchased some fall leaves and ribbon from our dollar tree. This is what I have been working on tonight to post on my new blog this week. I know it won't be half as good as your.... Thanks for sharing it is just great, Lisa G
