back to the drawing board

a simple patchwork pillow i was able to finish up just before thanksgiving. i think it's my favorite quilting project so far - although there aren't really that many to choose from yet.

today i have a simple canvas that went up on the jane's doodles blog. the pumpkin is a free digital image - which you can download here - that i resized to about 4-inches wide and printed onto a page torn from an old book. then i used spray ink to paint it - like i did on this card a few days ago. before cutting out the pumpkin i glued the paper to a thin sheet of cardboard to make it a bit more sturdy - this step probably wouldn't be necessary if you are just making a card.

also - jane's doodles is having a sale. all clear stamp sets are 20% off through nov 30th.

here's another card i made with one of the new stamp sets from purple onion designs. the pumpkins were stamped on a page from an old book then i used spray inks and a paint brush add some to color. and that frame was stamped onto a piece of denim from some old jeans.
