All that aside, here's a very autumnal-looking card for you!! That little (breathtakingly CUTE) fairy by Crissy Armstrong is called Pum Kinnie Fairy and she is available from Whimsy Stamps. The sentiment is from Steampunk Travels set.
The image was coloured with Prismas on kraft card and I recorded two tutorials - how to colour a pumpkin and leaves. You can watch them if you scroll down.
The papers are from Prima Romantique pad (freakin' LUSH), all edged with different flourishes from Lavish Flourishes stamp set. I made the pins myself using various spacers and pearls. The bling fourishes I just eyeballed, only tools being a bottle of glue and pile of loose flat-back gems. The flowers were also stamped with flourishes, then layered and I created centers with some link charms, flat back gems, big flat back pearls and generous blobs of Viva Pearl pens used as an adhesive.
Now, and here's the promised videos:
How to colour a pumpkin with Prismacolor pencils on kraft card
How to colour leaves (especially the lighter veins, really easy trick)

Lovely Card and coloring!! I'm new to your blog Annika, and now following.. lots of talent and inspiration here..
LOL.. have to tell you that I came here because of your blog name! I'm a messy stamper too and freely acknowledge it! My room is almost always a mess.. I suspect there are more like us than will admit it! If you get a chance, stop by my blog and say hi! :)
