Going to the pumpkin patch is a one of the most Awesome Autumn activities of this season! And Mimi‘s super clever scene captures the fun so well! She stamped the pumpkin from Happy Harvest, masked it then stamped over with the Little Snow Globe: Bear to create the bear holding a pumpkin. And she also featured Simply Celebrate Fall, Pick of the Patch, Pick of the Patch Add-On and Hay There Hayrides!


Mimi created the pumpkin patch on a Stitched Wavy Backdrop: Landscape making it easy to tuck the images in the rows. She also used the bears from Den Sweet Den and Snow Much Fun to round out the fun Awesome Autumn scene.

Thank you for sharing your creativity with us, Mimi! I love this so much!

Christy’s Pumpkin Patch Card

- Nancy Krueger 3 Comments

We invite you to share your Awesome Autumn projects by linking up your photos HERE! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies, stencils and papers and show us what you love about Autumn.  This challenge will be open until Sunday, October 2 at 11:59PM ET.

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Awesome Autumn Challenge! For this one I decided to make a fun pumpkin patch card, complete with black cats, and a full moon. I combined images from Purrfectly Wicked, Simply Celebrate Fall, Happy Harvest, and Jump for Joy. I stamped all the images in Jet Black ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

Then I created a background by blending Distress Oxide Inks onto Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock that I’d die cut with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I used Spun Sugar, Saltwater Taffy, and Carved Pumpkin for the sky, and Bundled Sage for the Grass. Then I cut down a second piece with the Full Moon die and blended on Pumice Stone. Then I splattered both with some Liquid Stardust for a bit of shine.

I glued the background to the Fake Tan card base and added the moon with liquid glue, then popped the rest of the images up with foam tape, adding three leaves in the sky to give it some movement. Then I stamped a wind trail from Butterfly Kisses in Narwhal Ink behind the leaves in the sky. I stamped a sentiment from Simply Celebrate Fall in Jet Black Ink and trimmed it out with an Everyday Sentiment Banner. I also stamped on the inside of the card using Simply Fall Sentiments in Pumpkin Spice ink and finished with a bit of Platinum Stickles on the leaves.

If you’d like to watch how this card design comes together, you can check out the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty! Thanks so much for stopping by!
