My last card for this release showcases the new Dual Stitched Pumpkin & Grateful Word Die Set and Pumpkin and Flower Greetings Stamp Set.
For this card, I die cut the pumpkin shape from metallic copper cardstock and a white piece of cardstock using the Dual Stitched Pumpkin & Grateful Word Die Set and created a border with the Stitched Mats: Rectangles Die Set. I stamped one of the many detailed pumpkin images from Pumpkin and Flower Greetings Stamp Set right onto a kraft card base, being careful to line up the white and copper cardstock where the pumpkin was die cut. I mounted the copper panel with dimensional adhesive and stamped a sentiment from Reap a Harvest Stamp Set onto a banner which was mounted with dimensional adhesive over the stamped pumpkin image.
Here's a look at the new release products showcased in my card today:

I love both of your cards; they are very elegant! The first one I love with the almost tone-on-tone background, beige stamped with light brown. Then the POP of orange with the addition of the orange 3D sentiment highlighted by the white line/area below it. I love the layering of the second card and that you used a dark ink on the "inside" of the pumpkin flowers. It really shows well. I also like the sentiment banner going all the way across the card. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. I have some new ideas to try. I really love your work!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous fall inspired cards!!! I love the tone on tone background stamping you did on your first card. Your second card really captures the richness and warmth that fall brings to mind with the coppery hues and pumpkins.
