🎃 Tractor & Co Insta Hop — Pumpkin Patch Party! 🚜

It’s the 14th, which means it’s Insta Hop day with my Coast to Coast crafty crew! This month’s challenge is all about a fall-tastic colour combo featuring:
Blackberry Bliss, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Berry Burst, and Azure Afternoon.
Talk about a colour party — it’s like Halloween met a cupcake shop, and I’m totally here for it! 😆

The Card Story

I went for a pumpkin patch on parade theme — because who wouldn’t want a tractor full of pumpkins rolling through a confetti sky? It’s festive, fun, and just a little bit silly (aka my favourite kind of project).

The background got a cheerful wash of Azure Afternoon for that bright autumn sky and shiny tractor, then I built my little pumpkin parade with layers of cardstock. The pumpkins? All decked out in Pumpkin Pie of course — the tastiest of colours!

Basic Instructions

1: Base & Background

Start with a white card base and layer it with black cardstock for a crisp frame.
Cut a DSP layer from Everyday skies DSP Which is on sale in the last chance section.

2: The Tractor Parade

Die-cut your tractor pieces from Azure Afternoon, Basic Black, cardstock.
Assemble your tractor, layering the pieces for a bit of dimension and whimsy.

3: Pumpkin Power!

Stamp and die-cut a pile of Pumpkin Pie pumpkins. (layer some behind the tractor and in it because You can never have too many pumpkins — that’s the rule of fall crafting! 🎃)
Stack them high in your tractor wagon, ready for the harvest parade!

4: Finishing Touches

Die cut some banners Berry Burst & Blackberry Bliss
Adhere your sentiment and banners — I used “This is a confetti, sparklers & streamers kind of celebration” because, well… it is!
Pop on a few embellishments or dots for sparkle, and you’re done!

💬 Final Thoughts

Fall crafting is all about colour, texture, and a sprinkle of silliness — and this card definitely delivers all three! Whether you’re celebrating the harvest, Halloween, or just another excuse to break out your craft supplies, this project is pure pumpkin-spiced joy. 🍂

Now if only my real tractor could deliver Tea and cardstock to my door… 😜
