I hope it's possible that, before I die, I'll have eaten at least 500 pieces of pumpkin pie, or slices of pumpkin bread, or pumpkin muffins, or anything pumpkin. But I can leave pumpkin spice products alone, except for a very few.
Self explanatory for the F4A (pumpkin spice), except for one thing: after I stamped the circle stamp on that pumpkin in bronze, I sprinkled a little pumpkin pie spice on that wet paint. Lovely smell.
For today's MIX (painty die cuts), the pumpkins are from Joggles, they're pre-cut watercolor paper and fun to work with. Three sizes, all of which I used. I sprayed them with the bronze spray, mixed the chalk paste and Sparks paint on a kraft surface, using a brayer, but didn't over mix. I wanted the matte of the chalk with the 'spark' of the paint to be there. I used two stencils for the outer two pumpkins. Background is stamped with the circle stamp and the bronze paint. I brushed the edges with the three Distress paints. I may tie a sentiment around the middle pumpkin when I come up with one I like. I have very few Halloween/Fall sentiments.

I can't help but notice the Memory Box DP FIRST thing! Makes a great base for those organic pumpkins. Fun idea to use the spice for an additional dimension. With all that fun Joggles bits and pieces, I think I need to have a look there. I don't believe I've ever seen their website.
The patterns on those pumpkins are fab.

I've never even heard of half your supplies! I like the muted colour palette, much more like an Irish autumn than the vivid reds and oranges. All that texture and patterning gives your pumpkins the look of decorative gourds.
