My first thought was Halloween but I went in a Fall direction instead as I already had my Halloween cards done. I had new dies from PB called abstract pumpkins and they were my starting point. Take a look...
For my background I used Gina K's Thick Brush stencil and lightly blended purple ink to tie in a little more color to the card. The die cut flowers and leaves are from Honey Bee's Lovely Layers: Autumn Bouquet and I finished with my die cut sentiment from MB's Just a Note Posh Script. Simple but I really like the Autumn vibes this card gives off!
The DT and our Special GD Bobby have lots of awesome and fun inspiration to get you started and you can check it all out right HERE. This challenge is open till Wednesday, Oct. 29th @ 9:00AM.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!

A beautiful pumpkins and watering can floral arrangement, Marcia. I want a real life version for my front door; pretty, eye-catching and definitely a creative, wonderfully inspired way to showcase the challenge colours.

This is just perfect for those colors. It's nice to see these colors being used in a non-halloween way. The scale of both work perfectly together.
What lovely die cuts of pumpkins and pitcher Marcia - So pretty with the lightly inked stanciling and fall stems! Julia xx
Why does it seem like I've seen this beauty before? OH!! Because I did - IRL no less!! Such a wonderful way to bring those colors to life, Marcia!

Marcia, this is so pretty. Love the pitcher full of purple and gold flowers and the fun pumpkins. Beautiful card.
There's my favorite pumpkins again! I love them with the pitcher of flowers alongside, and I'm a big fan of sandable cardstock, too. You leafy background is perfect. You used these colors beautifully, Marcia!
Marcia, I'm so glad you made a card to show other uses of this color combination and what a stunning card it is! The soft stenciling in the background is so eye catching, as is the beautiful vase of autumn florals. I remember sandable paper by Bazille from years ago; is that the brand you're using? Anyway, all in all, simply a gorgeous card!
Wonderful card, Marcia! I love your use of the colors and the elements are perfect. I would love to have this arrangement on my front porch, Friend
