This works for THREE Autumn challenges!

This card was made for 3 challenges - CR85FN #39, to use orange, yellow, and brown, the Ribbon Reel challenge #12, to use orange, neutrals, and flowers and using the photo inspiration below (and coincidentally one of the same ones used by CR94FN), and The Shabby Tea Room #82, whose inspiration is also shown below.


supplies: white, kraft and brown card stock, an old scrap of a DCWV autumn pad (tablecloth) and various other scraps for pumpkins, Hero Arts H3129 Flower Cluster Sketch, Prismacolor pencils in yellows and oranges, F5270 Traditional Pumpkin, CL361 A Season of Giving (little punkins), CL119 Happy Thanksgiving, Memento Cocoa and Tuxedo Black inks, Hero Arts designer twine, tea dye distress ink

Here are the inspiration pictures:
