The Four Seasons November Challenge

Hello everyone, today is the start of a new Four Seasons challenge and it's our last Fall challenge of the year. Time flies too fast!!! As always, we have a fun moodboard to inspire you, totally optional to use as Anything Fall Goes. 

And here is what I made using stamps by Tracy Evans.

The pumpkin is from the set Myriad of Designs (I masked off the very top of the pumpkin) and I used Crackling Campfire, Carved Pumpkin and Mustard Seed Distress inks/oxides. Next I stamped the flowers from the set Flower Power also by Tracy Evans with a mask over the pumpkin. I stamped the large flower again on scrap paper and fussy cut. Coloring was done with Stormy Sky and Faded Jeans Distress inks. 

 The text at the bottom is an old favorite stamp from Whimsy Stamps from a set called background basics (no longer available). The dove comes from Tracy Evans set Good Things Take Time along with the sentiment I used. A few flicks of a black Posca pen and staples finish off the card. 

If you're in the US then you can find Tracy Evan's stamps at Simon Says Stamp and overseas of course directly from Tracys Boutique. I'm not affiliated with either, Tracys stamps just happen to be one of my favorites to work with. Tracy also shares some wonderful videos on her youtube channel, this video was my inspiration, although I used different stamps and colors besides the pumpkin. 

This is our optional mood board for the month. My inspiration came from the bottom left image.
