This card started out as a challenge for CASology # 64  a Harvest card using the load of pumpkins from the retired SU Loads of Love stamp set.

But, when I went to pick up the sentiment “happy harvest,” my eye caught the “thought you could use a little pick up,” and I knew I wanted to send this to my sweet stamping friend, Mary, who fell at work and broke her nose this week. We missed her cantagioous laughter and fun spirit this week at class,  and everyone is praying for her quick recovery. This card went in the mail to her today:

I enjoyed a little therapeutic coloring time with this image using my Prismacolors and Gamsol. I just love this set…so glad a friend picked it up at a garage sale for $2- yeah, just $2 for the set and the accessories set, too!
