I knew right from the start that I loved everything about the Beautiful Pumpkins Bundle! Yes, the stamped images are gorgeous! However, I like to take things a little out of the box when using products. With the use of my Take Your Pick Tool and a piece of chipboard punched into a circle, I did just that!
For the first card of the evening, I scored in some lines to create a more realistic look. Then I used a sponging technique to add depth and interest to a plain old pumpkin. It truly made for a great card!
