Thankful for Watercolored Pumpkins!

Welcome class!
I'm here with more inspiration from this month's Simon Says Stamp Stamptember release, this time using the Pumpkin to Talk About stamp set.  I LOVE the huge size of this set, allowing for both vertical and horizontal cards, and the outlines give so many possibilities for creativity.  On this card, I decided to try my hand at watercoloring with a set of Karin markers!


So here's the lesson plan:
1.  Pick your colors. I wanted to go earthy on this one, and I made sure to toss a few green-grey pumpkins in there for fun!
2.  Stamp the things!  I used Versafine Nocturne ink with clear embossing powder on Tim Holtz watercolor paper. Color the things!  I was happy that I gave things a try with Karin markers!  I lightly dampened the paper and applied the ink.  I'm still working on my technique with these markers, but I'm excited to play with them more.  Die cut the things!  I used a Thankful die from last year's Stamptember release. 
3.  Assemble!  I added some May Arts twine and gold sequins for some flash and it's a card!
