Peggy's combo for us this week is Honey, Blackberry and Vanilla with a dessert option to use splatters. I have a FEW splatters on the pumpkin and just above it.
My bg base was sponged with honey and blackberry inks and then overstamped with ledger and flourish in honey ink. The leaves and acorns were die cut and sponged. The pumpkin I drew with a Copic Multiliner and then sponged with the same inks again. The Quinn Flourish was cut in half and placed along the bottom edge. Layered the tag, branch and leaves in the upper right. The stripe borders were stamped and tucked along either side.
The colors gave me fits to start with but once I got it going it all came together. Thanks for taking a look and I hope you play along with the color challenge this week.

I'm not sure why it took me so long to wander into your gallery - but I just favorited this. There are so many fine details here, it's all fantastic but I think those half flowers at the bottom are wonderful - and so is that leaf cluster.
