Embossed Pumpkins
Yesterday I made the embossed pumpkins by applying Tim Holtz’s spiced marmalade distress ink to the front of the Cuttlebug folder. But I did not end up using it and it was too cute not to use. It turned out to be a nice “tone-on-tone” effect with the peach colored card stock.
This card was going to have some Spellbinder Shapeabilities metallic embossed leaves on top of the “stripes.” But it looked too cute just like it is. So, now I have five beautiful leaves to use in yet another fall card!

Wow! I love the way you made panels and inserted the ribbon as a weave at the bottom.

I think this usage of the cuttlebug folder is my all time favorite. It looks so wonderful and textural.
