This is such a fun card to make...the technique is called tool stamping. If you would like directions please email me. They are a little too long to write out here.

I'm going to try to explain it for anyone that wants to know how to do this technique. I used the pumpkin and leaf from All About Autumn set, but any bold stamp image works well for this.
Take any bold pumpkin stamp image and ink it up with only orange, place it face up on your work surface.
Take any small stamp,This Is Your Tool Stamp, I used one from Frames & Flourishes, ink it up with Really Rust and stamp onto the bold stamp and give it a twist, lift it up and stamp it again and twist it once more. You can clean off the tool stamp and ink in another color I used More Mustard and then cleaned it and applied Chocolate Chip and repeated the twisting process, you can do this twisting process as many times as you like. I start with a light color on ink on my bold stamp and a darker color ink on my tool stamp. There's no mistakes with this technique and it opens the possiblities for stamping in a whole new way. If anyone needs a bit more help with this or would like to share their ideas, email me personally [email protected]
I love to share with others.
