Inkspirational Thanks!

Hello and Welcome to the Inkspirational Green and Orange challenge!
I was thrilled and honoured when asked to be the guest designer for this wonderful challenge and here is the card that I came up with!
I thought I had better do some inking...
Some water colouring, some smooshing and some leaf splattering and staggering were my technique.  My "pumpkins" are actually hot air balloon dies that I turned upside down and added some linen twine around the "stems"!  I hope that you will be able to join in at the gallery this time around!  Challenges run for two weeks!

    I just love the organic feel of this card - so many fabulous techniques and yet it looks so natural. Clustering the leaves and pumpkins on one side gives great impact, as does the addition of black. What a beautiful card! Thank you so much for being GD at Inkspirational.

    Super thrilled that you're joining us at Ink, and with a card that is smooshing spectacular and fall-fabulous! How innovative to use the hot air balloons as pumpkins! Your autumn card is awesome - as is the comment you left on my googly-eyed goofy card!

    What a gorgeous card. I love your inking and color choices. It's so hot here, and just looking at your beautiful fall colors is cooling me off.
