Welcome to you! Today I made my own pumpkin because that’s what you have to do when you don’t have a pumpkin stamp, lol!
There it is in all of its shiny metallic glory! I’m pretty proud of it actually and thankful that I purchased the beautiful Brushed Metallic Cardstock(153524) to use. Then, all it took was the Layering Ovals dies(the smallest one) to cut out 5 ovals! Then, to add some texture, out came the Subtle embossing folder. I attached each oval using our Mini Glue Dots to form the pumpkin shape. The leaves are courtesy of the Forever Blossoms stamp set and matching Cherry Blossom Dies.
I really liked the card layout challenge posted by The Paper Players and it fit well with my autumn-themed card.
Here’s the list of products used.

That’s the sign of a talented crafter Cynthia – one who can improvise when they don’t have what they really want to hand! And a great shiny pumpkin to boot. Thanks for making a great card with my Paper Players challenge sketch this week!

Thanks so much Joanne. A stamper’s gotta do what a stamper can do!
