Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Pumpkins for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! Here is a simple Thanksgiving card made with the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Pumpkins bundle and the Gather Together specialty designer series paper. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a theme challenge this week:

Adhere a panel of Gather Together specialty designer series paper to the front of a Basic Beige card base with liquid glue.

Stamp the detailed large pumpkin from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Pumpkins stamp set using Basic Beige ink. Stamp the background image using stamped off ink on top of the detailed image. Cut out the pumpkin with the coordinating die. Cut a stem from Crumb Cake card stock using the large stem die and adhere it to the pumpkin. Adhere the pumpkin to the card with dimensionals.

Use the two vine and leaves dies from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Pumpkins dies to cut gold foil and adhere them to the card with glue dots and dimensionals. Stamp the first part of the sentiment using Versamark ink on Basic White. Sprinkle it with gold embossing powder and heat set. Cut out the label with the small banner from the Stylish Shapes dies. Adhere the label to the card with glue dots and dimensionals.

For the inside, stamp the small detailed pumpkin from the Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Pumpkins stamp set using Basic Beige ink in the corner of a Basic White panel. Stamp the background stamp using stamped off Basic Beige ink and the stem using Crumb Cake ink. Cut out a small leaf from gold foil and adhere it to the pumpkin and adhere the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The Stampin’ Up! Beautiful Pumpkins bundle is a simple Fall set with pretty two-step stamping pumpkins, sentiments and great dies. In keeping with the CAS theme challenge, I didn’t use any embellishments or ribbon, and it really lets the gold foil shine!
