I stamped the tree image in Espresso and used an aqua painter to blend in the trunk and create a shadow on the ground. Next, I sponged on Palette Orangerie fore the leaves. The background paper was off-stamped with the tree image. The pumpkins are from a MS border punch.

Absolutely gorgeous and I love the punched pumpkins. I used that punch, also on my StampinB card. Looks as if you added a good touch by painting the stems of yours. Good idea! The tree is an Autumn beauty.

Just bought that punch and love that you used it to give me inspiration! Your use of the main image on the background mat is also a reminder that I can make my own bg paper. TFS!

8 little pumpkins all in a row, off to market they will go.....
I think that your card is terrific. I love the tree image, the stamped bg and the ribbon/buckle treatment. WOW!!

There's that gorgeous tree again! Great card. Love the ribbon through the hardware and your nestie shapes to frame the main image.
