Let me show you the card I created :)
I am always drawn towards the white color of the pumpkins, so I thought I would make one on my card :) To make it I heat embossed the image on watercolor cardstock and diecut it with the coordinating die. Then I watercolored it. Next I diecut a frame and layered it all on a patterned paper with frames :) Here are a few more shots...
 I have used the following products Oh, So Grateful Bundle, Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies and Gansai Tambi Watercolors

I hope you enjoyed the creation, there are a lot of stops in the hop. Please find the links below or go to the STAMP blog HERE.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving me a comment :)
