The flourish and the tiny die cut pumpkin next to it were colored using a technique called Drunken Scotch that I found on KAT's blog. Check out the link for her quick and easy tutorial. It makes a great grungy look. The young harvest boy is a stamp from Artistic Outpost, the vintage pumpkin label is from the Graphics Fairy and the cork letters were cut with the Oliva alphabet for the Cuttlebug.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today. I hope you will stop by Simon Says Stamp and Show to play with us this week. And I hope you will take time to visit the rest of the designers for this challenge. They all do such amazing work and I'm sure you will be delighted by what you see on their blogs.
