Sketch Challenge

I've been dreaming of this card for quite some time, and thought I would try it out with a sketch. I rarely do sketches, not that I don't like them, but usually don't have enough time to do "onsie" cards. This was so fun, and it really does help to have a sketch in front of you to get you going! This sketch was done by Karen Giron, whose blog can be found HERE.
Here is the sketch that she came up with for this week:




And here is what I came up with:

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Under the Stars, Teeny Tiny Wishes, Pumpkin Patch

Paper: Basic Black, Pumpkin Pie, Creamy Caramel, SU DP (Retired), Naturals Ivory (Pumpkin Stem)

Ink: Brown Stazon, Basic Black, Always Artichoke, Craft White

Accessories: Small Oval Punch, Scallop Edge Punch, Dimensionals

Card is 5"x5". Pumpkin on bear is made with 5 small oval punches taped together.
