Hand painted Pumpkin


I got some inspiration from my Thanksgiving card. I decided to paint my design on this pumpkin. Instead of going the traditional route this year I decided to change it up a bit. I also was thinking of adding dimensional paint to accent the lines. What do you think? I also admire Alisa Burke's creative fall pumpkins here.

Looks beautiful Mechelle! Our pumpkin rotted. =( We normally just get the seeds out to toast and then bake it.

Love your pumpkin card too!
