Pretty Pumpkins & Autumn Greetings Layered Pumpkin Card with Eloise

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have another card using the Pretty Pumpkins and Autumn Greetings stamp set for you all. These two work so well together and I'm loving these layering pumpkins so much!

To begin I stamped out my pumpkins. Today I'm using Distress Inks to stamp. I used Fossilized Amber, Wild Honey Spiced Marmalade and Ripe Persimmon for my layering today. I first inked up my first layering of my image with the lightest colour of ink, spritzed it with water a couple times and stamped down. 

I just repeated this step going up in darkness and making sure I dried each layer in between layers to make them more defined. I repeated this step for all pumpkins and other images also. Like the leaves and vines. I then die cut all my images out using the coordinating dies, and once they were cut I proceeded to stamp the stems on the pumpkins, as it's easier to line then up.

Next up I ink blended some Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks onto my background. I then took my Rays stencil from Tim Holtz, layered it over top and spritzed it with water, then picking up the excess with a cloth and drying it off with a heat tool. Looks so cool and you get a subtle bleached effect on your background. Once everything was dry I adhered down my pumpkins and accents. I then used the 'Much Gratitude' sentiment from Autumn Greetings and stamped it down the bottom of my panel with black ink. I adhered my panel onto some orange cardstock and then onto a white card base to finish up my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed and I'll catch you next time!
