It's Marvelous Monday, again, at Images. This week, we are featuring Pumpkins as the featured image. Perfect for fall and harvest time. There are so many possibilities with this image. It would also make a nice Thanksgiving card. This image is available for a special price, today only, in the Shelly's Images store. While you are there getting this one, pick up some of the other wonderful images Shelly has to offer.
Also, check out the Shelly's Images blog for some wonderful eye candy by the DT, using the Pumpkins image. You may want to stop back there, too, on Tuesdays for the wonderful tutorials and on Thursdays for the new challenges!
My card featuring the pumpkins image is simple, but I love the way it turned out. I love this image and thought it would be a fantastic to use as a big focal point for a card. I colored the image with Promarkers and framed it with a chipboard frame. (New purchase I made this week, at Michael's) Once I attached it to the card, I felt it was perfect and didn't want to add anything, for fear of taking away from the image. I rarely make a card that doesnt use patterned paper, and I generally don't like chipboard, but I'm glad I did, with this image. I think it is perfect just the way it is.
