I bought the "Harvest Hellos" set because I like the apple. I was also intrigued by the jack o lantern and just a plain pumpkin that you can make with the set. It's all about versatility for me.
The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Whisper White card stock. On top of that is a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Pumpkin Pie card stock that I stamped using the leaf from the "Harvest Hellos" set and Cajun Craze ink. I taped that to the front of the card.
I wanted something green but I didn't buy any fall papers this time around. Mostly because I hardly use any of them. I'm sure there were some, but they were not on my wish list. I ended up using some Mossy Meadow colored green and white striped Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Magnolia Lane" 12" x 12" pack. I cut that strip 1-1/2" x 5-1/4". I taped it directly to the Pumpkin Pie piece.
Then I stamped the pumpkin on a piece of the gingham Regals DSP using Cajun Craze ink. I love those 6" x 6" paper packs. They used to have the 12" x 12" ones and that was just way too much paper plus it was a kind of expensive. This was affordable enough that I could get all 4 packs and not break the bank. I took the matching punch and punched out the pumpkin. I stamped a leaf on a scrap piece of Mossy Meadow. Then I lost the leaf and had to stamp and punch another one. Oh, I stamped the leaf on Mossy Meadow card stock using Mossy Meadow ink. I stamped the stem on a scrap piece of Soft Suede using Early Espresso ink. I punched those out also. I set the pumpkin in place using Dimensionals and I glued the one end of the stem and leaf to the pumpkin.

The words are from the same "Harvest Hellos" set. I stamped them on a scrap of Whisper White using Mossy Meadow ink. I punched them out using a 1-1/4" punch and I die cut a circle just a little bit larger. It was die cut from a piece of Cajun Craze card stock. I taped those two circles together and I taped the circles to the DSP strip. I found the other leaf and I added Dimensionals to the back and set it in place on the word piece. It must have been meant to be! I like it there.
This was a fun and easy card to make.
Thank you SO much for stopping by today,
