Todays card is a traditional pumpkin card......and don't these pumpkins look so real! They are from the stamp set- 'Gourd Goodness'. I think this card would make a great Thanksgiving card too! Especially with the words I added to the front of it. The words in this stamp set- 'Paisleys & Posies' are just some of my favorite words ever!
This is an easy 2 step stamp for these pumpkins! I stamped the more solid image pumpkins in Crushed Curry first. And then I stamped over them with the more detailed stamp, using Pumpkin Pie.
I used the Light Crumb Cake NEW Stampin' Blend underneath the pumpkins! And the dots are from the stamp set- 'Timeless Textures'.
Look closely at the background, as it is embossed with the Pinewood Embossing Folder.
For the bow I used the Jute Twine. It has 3 strands wrapped together, so I pulled them apart- which made the kind of crinkled. I liked the different texture look of it this way. And it is also less bulky when you go to mail it too! Plus it goes alot farther!

Yesterday was a busy day with the 3 litter kids. The 3 big boys were here just a little bit right after school. Mondays are always days of catching up from the weekend of being gone to stamp classes & getting the kids back into my routine here. As of the moment, everyone is healthy! I pray it stays that way! I have my fingers crossed forsure!
Last night I worked on farm bookwork, did some stamping stuff & worked on our pile of laundry!
This morning I'm off to pick up kids & spend the day with the little ones. Tonight I'll be cutting card stock!! I have 3 of my 5 Christmas Stamp-a-Stack classes this coming weekend, so I have lots of cutting to do! You can see those cards BY CLICKING HERE!
Gotta run.....
I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!!
Happy Stamping!
