Pumpkins everywhere!

I don't know if you've seen the video for Hero Arts a couple of weeks ago. Or if you saw the Card of the Week posted on Monday. If you did, these are going to look familiar.

I colored these babies in the car on the way to and from Charlotte a couple of weekends ago. As I prepared for the trip, I separated the shades of orange that I use to color the pumpkins into another container so it would be more convenient to access them in the car. And in a typical 'Jacki' move, I left that container at home. My very patient husband stopped at a Hobby Lobby

so that I could at least get a pumpkin orange. They didn't have it, and in a sad but desperate move, I had to use some of the brighter oranges that I did have to color these. LOL. OK it really wasn't a tragedy.

* Edited to add. I don't know that a day goes by that I'm not loving my iPhone, but this day I was particularly excited about it. Every time we were near a town, I'd type in Hobby Lobby and/or Michaels into the Maps feature and it would tell me how far we were from it. When I found one that was only a mile or so off the highway, we went looking for it. It was exciting! Oh, I already said exciting. So... ecstatic. I was ecstatic.

I did a whole lot of masking to create this pumpkin patch. It was one of the rejects for COW. I usually create cards as I'm designing cards. Most of the time I make at least two or three cards and then I choose one to submit to them.
