SOS: Pink is the new orange!

This week, I am your hostess at Shopping Our Stash.  Originally,  we were going to go with an idea Deena had for "Orange is the new black"-- but then decided to combine it with PINK for breast cancer awareness month.  Perfect, right?

Supplies:

• The pumpkin was cut from Dina Wakley's cotton waterclor paper, first inked with Dylusions in Funky Fuchsia and Pure Sunshine, plus a little Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.
• I sealed the paper with some Krylon archival UV spray and then backed it with some Sizzix adhesive paper (So stashworthy because I have had this since this summer and ave not used it-- so then for this project I accidentally used two pieces!  ARGH!)
• For the pumpkin, I drew it on the reverse of the inked paper first, then numbered the pieces from left to right so I could reassemble the pieces once cut.  I added Nuvo drops once adhered to the background.
• I scribbled some Peeled Paint Distress Crayon on the stem
• A friend gave me some tint punches a few weeks ago, and so I punched the stars with one of those.
• The hearts were just cut free-hand.
• The leafy backgrond was inked many months ago with Lindy's Stamp Gang Magicals.
• The leaves at the bottom were pre-cut from dies from Autumn (thanks!).  I inked them with DOx in Lucky Clover and Peacock Feathers, the spritzed with water and added some Nuvo drops. The Nuvo drops are kind of new, but I am not a huge "drop" user, so I was definitely trying to use my stash.  So glad!  I think they look cool!
• The copper-y background was some Metallic Kraft-core by Tim + Core'dinations, and to further use my stash, I ran it through the Sidekick with and EF by Anna Griffin.  
• I added the quotation by Tim Holtz, and this will be perfect to send to my sister.

I hope you have a chance to join us!  For more inspiration, please visit my teammates at Shopping Our Stash.

Also, just a friendly reminder to do your self-examinations!  Early detection is so important with breast cancer!
