Thankful You Are My Friend

Welcome back!  I've got some autumn inspiration for you today!

I cut the pumpkin from a blue-ish gray gel print and decided to add some gold embossing powder to it.  My attempt to sprinkle just a bit on went awry and it ended up looking dirty... so I dabbed on some white pigment ink over the gold and I love the look of it!  It's a little silvery looking and I think it's perfect with this woodgrain paper.

I cut the leaves from another gel print as well as the pumpkin stem.  Then I cut the Thankful word die from the blue-gray gel print since I had some scrap and dabbed on some white pigment ink and then added gold embossing powder and heat set it.  I love the look of it back on some dark brown.

I stamped the sentiment onto the edge of a sentiment strip and popped it onto the card front.  Finally a few sequins and done!
