The Giant Pumpkin and Stamp Sets Go Single!


You've seen the wooden pumpkins they are selling everywhere this fall - well, that was my inspiration for this card. (Still don't have the wooden one!) Don't miss the mini tutorial for this card at the end of this post.


Stamp Sets Go Single!
Isn't this a great swirly sentiment? Well, guess what? You can now purchase it separately! That's right, for a limited time Stampin' Up! is offering you the chance to buy single pieces from these three stamp sets: Seasonal Sayings, Word Play, and  Perfectly Penned.
Click on the stamp sets below for individual pricing (4.95 - 6.95) and details!



                                   Perfectly Penned


Directions:
  • Very Vanilla card stock - 4-1/4" x 11". Fold in half to create a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" card.
  • Tangerine Tango card stock (4) 1" x 4-1/2"
  • Lay next to each other on the Square Lattice Embossing Folder - emboss using the Big Shot!
  • Using the 3/16" Corner Punch round the top and bottom outside edges two of the strips (see pumpkin)
  • Sponge all edges of strips using Early Espresso ink and a Stampin' Sponge.
  • Adhere to card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.
  • Using Lucky Limeade card stock, die cut three leaves using the Autumn Accents Bigz Die.
  • Emboss one leaf using the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing folder.

    Lay them in embossing folder at an angle - creates the prettiest leaves!
