Harvest of Pumpkins

Welcome to my studio!  I was inspired to create this card by the Photo Challenge Week #459 at Just Us Girls I loved the fall trees, colors and the old truck in the photo.  I knew I had an old truck stamp but it took me a while to find it.  I had created the fall scene before I remembered where it was so I had to invent a way of including the truck.  But back to the beginning, I stamped a Repeat Impression stamp Covered Bridge with Memento Rich Cocoa ink on heavyweight white card stock and colored with an number of Distress Oxide Inks....actually used a dozen of them but too lazy to list.  Also used some pencils in some areas.  I might should have used watercolor paper but I was happy with the results on this paper. By the time I finished this scene, I found the old truck stamp in  my Mark's Finest Paper stamps.  I stamped it in the same ink and colored with Distress Oxide Inks and some pencils.  I drew some pumpkins in the back of the red truck and added a driver into the cab. I fussy cut the truck and attached it with foam tape as if he is driving down the dirt road and off the edge of the scene.  To finish, I added an orange mat and a textured rust color card base.  Stamped a Power Poppy sentiment Happy Harvest since there was an abundant harvest of pumpkins in the truck.
Had fun combing the stamps to create this scene.
