Thanksgiving Leaves Pumpkin Card

Created this Thanksgiving card using Sizzix Fall Set embossing folder. I got the idea for the card from seeing a similar one on the blog using the leaves on the same embossed image I used.

Used Glossy accents on the Leaves. Used Stamp & Plus chalk on the Pumpkins.

  1. Love your card! I have been trying to locate that embossing folder locally -I might have to order on line - I should have picked it up months ago when I first saw it - your card looks lovely - I saw someone put those leaves on a card as well -it make the card pop! Thanks for visiting my site and leaving your comments as well - I went to Kraft and uploaded my card today! Have a great week! Our week is loaded for some reason with lots of activities ~ Later - Gail
