Instructions:

Score and burnish card base.

Emboss the Pumpkin Pie layer using the Cane Weave embossing folder.

Color both pieces of ribbon with light Old Olive Blends. Wrap one piece around the embossed piece of Pumpkin Pie and adhere the ends to the back of the layer. Adhere the layer to the card base.

On the 4” x 3” piece of Basic White, stamp two sets of the 5-pumpkin clusters, one full set, and one partial set.

Stamp the same images twice on Masking Paper and cut them out, making sure to cut just to the edge of the images, do not leave any white space. Peel the backing off the masking paper and apply them over the stamped images (you will cut off the excess on the 2nd set of pumpkins.

Stamp several layers of the grass image using Old Olive, stamping off each time for a less intense color. You’ll want to place the grass image slightly above the bottom of the pumpkins. This is to make it appear that the pumpkins are sitting on the grass once you remove the masking paper.

Stamp the fence image using Crumb Cake ink, positioning it so that the bottom posts of the image meet the top of the grass image. This will make it appear that the pumpkins are sitting in front of the fence once you remove the masking paper.

Gently remove the masking paper. Stamp the pumpkin stems using Old Olive ink.

Using Memento Ink, stamp the image of the girl carrying pumpkins on the 4” x 3” piece of Basic White card stock. Color the image using the watercolor pencils of your choice. Blend the colors using a water painter. Fussy cut the image. Apply Wink of Stella to the pumpkins.

Adhere the fussy cut image to the right side of the Basic White panel using mini dimensional.

Stamp the sentiment using Old Olive ink. Adhere the finished panel to the card front using dimensional.

Take the 2nd piece of ribbon and tie it into a small bow. Attach the bow to the left-hand side of the card using a glue dot.

• Stamp the pumpkins on the 5 ¼” x 4” piece of Basic White using Pumpkin Pie ink. Stamp the pumpkin stems and sentiment using Old Olive ink. Adhere the layer to the inside of the card.

Stamp the pumpkins and stems on the left- bottom side of the envelope.

You are finished!
