Aren’t eggplants a funny vegetable. They really seriously make me smile. That is what inspired this card today, well, that AND the Paper Smooches Color Story card challenge. The colors they chose are called “Fresh Fall:”
With those colors to work with, I immediately thought of my Paper Smooches “Vegtastic” eggplant stamp. It is a funny little stamp, but it always makes me smile. When I got this stamp set, I wondered what I would EVER use that eggplant for. This challenge was perfect! Here’s what I came up with:
I watercolored the eggplant and used some purple glitter glue on a few of them. (Don’t touch yet…wet glue!) For the sentiment I used the “YOU” stamp set from Simon Says Stamp. The cloud die cut is also from SSS.
Look at those cute little shadows the eggplant makes…I popped them out with pop dots. A little washi tape makes the fun pennant banner. Those eggplant veggies *might be having a little party.
Here’s a side view so you can see the dimension. I hope this card made YOU smile.
