Painted Pumpkins - Hello Gourdgeous

Hello Stampers,

This week's featured product will be the Painted Patch Suite Collection. I especially love the soft pastel palette—colors you might not typically associate with pumpkins, but they work beautifully together. I completely missed the sentiment I used on this card when I first purchased the set. It wasn’t until I saw another demonstrator use it, that it made me like it even more.

I started this card with a Very Vanilla Cardstock base, then also used another piece to die-cut the focal area with Everyday Arch Dies. I used the Exploring Nature Two-Tone Cardstock (Secret Sea) & embossed it using the Rustic Check 3D Embossing Folder, then used a Sanding Block to rough it up a bit more. For the focal image, I stamped a sentiment from Painted Pumpkins Stamp Set using Secret Sea Ink. Next, I die-cut the fence & pumpkins using Crumb Cake, Timid Tiger, Pool Party, Flirty Flamingo & Crushed Curry Cardstocks & added them to the focal image. Lastly, I added a few Radiant Gems (Secret Sea) to finish the card.

~Thanks for stopping by!
All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted.
