This week’s Global Design Project is all about pumpkins, so I grabbed the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle, and stamped two pumpkins. One pumpkin was stamped in Pool Party Ink and one in Cinnamon Cider Ink, then cut with their Detailed Pumpkin Die.
My pretty pumpkins are sitting on wood, from In Good Taste Designer Paper, cut with an Ornate Layers Die.

Thanksgiving Pumpkins
The background is Whimsy & Wonder Designer Paper, 4 1/2″ X 2 1/2″, glued to Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4 “, embossed with the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder. This was glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4”.
“Thanksgiving” was created with a Word Wishes Die, cut from Cork Specialty Paper. I can’t get enough of this cork! Not only does it look great, but it feels soft!

To play with more cork, I cut leaves, using a Giving Gifts Die. Remember? This is the one that cuts five different leaves at the same time. Additional leaves were cut, using Subtles 6X6″ Designer Paper in Pool Party and Mint Macaron plaid. I attached the leaves with Dimensionals, and my Thanksgiving card was complete.

I was also inspired by Fusion.
