Pretty Pumpkins - I'd Pick You!

Pretty Pumpkins - I'd Pick You!

Today I am sharing this fun pumpkin project featuring the Pretty Pumpkins Stamp Set and coordinating dies Detailed Pumpkins. 

At first I thought of doing a mono-chromatic card creation with just the Pale Papaya and Pumpkin Pie colored cardstock, but in the end I wanted the leaves too, so I added the Old Olive embellishments.

I just love how easily this card came together.  Simple Stamping of the sentiment followed by some selective die cutting for the label.  Then easy peasy die-cutting of the detailed pumpkins and wonderfully embossed leaves.  I added some dry embossing with the Ornate Floral embossing folder to soften the card front.  Layer it all together and you have this project.

Here's the tutorial and list of materials I used.   But remember, this layout could be CASED, just use your own dies and follow along.  Check out the quick video tutorial I post at the end here as well.

Happy Stamping,

Susan
