I've been playing with a stencil by Funky Fossil Designs called "Autumn Glory" to create this card.
I've had this stencil a while and just hadn't got round to using it. I wish I had, I think it has William Morris vibes!
I lay the stencil over the top of a piece of card, securing with low tack masking tape. I created a mask of the central pumpkin and covered the area. I then used three shades of Archival Ink (Prickly Pear, Leaf Green and Fern Green), with a blending brush to fill in the foliage area.
I removed the stencil and the mask and then coloured the pumpkin, using Derwent Inktense water colour pencils applied with a brush. I also used a white and black Van Goch pastel pencils. I coloured the dots with a copper glitter pen.
Finally, I filled in the edges of the card. First I used "Wild Honey" and the "Rusty Hinge" Distress Oxide Inks.
