Another fun stamp set for fall cards is Autumn Harvest. One of the stamps is a Jack-o-lantern face so its great for Halloween, too. I used the masking technique on this card to stamp the images on Very Vanilla card stock, layered it on Old Olive, and glued it to the Really Rust card base. I love background stamps and the one here is the retired Canvas. I stamped my greeting with another retired set, Small Script, on Really Rust card stock punched with the small oval. I used watercolor pencils to color the images and finished up with the Ticket Corner punch and natural hemp.

Got your turkey in the oven? Mine's embossed on this free standing pop up card. I'm not sure if you can see it (if not, click on the photo to enlarge it) but I also used an embossing folder to emboss the front panel of the card base. Next I punched 3 ovals from Only Orange card stock, sponged the edges with Pumpkin Pie ink and layered them to make the pumpkin. The stem and leaves were cut with the Little Leaves Sizzlit die. The turkey is embossed with Soft Suede and VersaMark ink and clear embossing powder on Very Vanilla card stock. The VV card stock is layered on Kraft to create a tag. The greeting was also stamped on Very Vanilla and layered on Dusty Durango. I punched 2 circles out of Dusty Durango and Crushed Curry, folded them in half over the top of the tag and set a jumbo eyelet to run the Dusty Durango ribbon through. This is such a fun card to make and it folds flat for mailing! Happy Thanksgiving to all my stamping friends!!
