This is a double challenge card for the HYCCT challenge to punch it with dies or punches and for the Ways to Use It Challenge Autumn Textures. I had seen this beautiful bedroom on Pinterest earlier today. It made me think of the texture challenge and when I saw the pumpkin I decided I could make a punch art pumpkin to go with it. My textures are the distressed edges, inked woodgrain texture added to the bg, and the burlap. I also found the piece of weathered paper. My pumpkin has been sponged on the edges and has the Canvas bg partially stamped on it. I stamped my sentiment on the flipped designer label and it is sponged as well. I just couldn't leave well enough alone when I saw this square frame lying on my desk.

Gail, I'd say punches, dies and texture go together very well. I have seen a few of these today and I loved them all. I always love anything with burlap and woodgrain, so you know I love this creation of yours today. Thank you for playing in my Hope You Can Cling To challenge today.

Great card! I like the use of the swirl for the stem and vine, and the off-center frame is what caught my eye initially. I must remember to do that once in a while.

Fantastic, Gail! You rocked both challenges!
