Ranger Distress Ink - Stormy Sky, sponge and acetate template were used to create the sky. Check in the in right side bar under the turtorial list here on my blog to find a pattern for making your own cloud template.
Memento - Tuxedo Black was used for stamping the image.
Paper: K&Company designer paper, The Paper Company - dark grey, Bazzill - light pumpkin, Beckett Expressions - Iceberg for image
What looks to be brads on the narrow panel going across the card are actually 1/8" circles that I cut with the Tiny Tags die from Cuttlebug; I like it because the edges become rounded as it cuts. I normally punch a 1/4" circle to place over the tag holes on the die rather than waste a larger piece of cardstock. They are glued to the card with Aleene's tacky glue and Aleene's Paper Glaze is applied to create a shiny finish. Here's a tip: this has never happened before but for some reason the right one didn't dry clear but it's an easy fix by coloring the laquer with a Copic marker.
A tip for lining up those three plaid designer paper panels: I used the Zero Hero ruler which has a 0 in the center the same numbers going out on each side. Place the center panel first and once you get one of the outside panels placed you just repeat on the other side. I found this brand name at Michaels for a little over $3.00 with tax but there are other brands on the market with this ruler design, my Tim Holtz ruler which I bought for the extra long straight edge piercing line also has this feature.

Nice image, like the way the pumpkins jump out at you. It is getting that time of year. I love autumn and all the splendid color. Your card reminds me autumn is just around the corner.
