I have been hoarding this paper for so long, I don't remember who made it. I just loved the texture and color of it. It was the perfect background for my pumpkin. When I saw the little circle in the sketch I was thinking pumpkin. Monday's challenge was to add dimension. I didn't get to play then, so I decided to do that today. My pumpkin is 3-d using paper tole technique. I added some little rhinestones from Want 2 Scrap and I curled the leaves to increase the dimension. I was following the sketch until it came time for a sentiment. I really like the paper I chose, but I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to see the sentiment on it, so I had to add a little sentiment panel. But since the original sketch is there on my card maybe the challenge police will go easy on me. The sentiment is from My Daydream Designs - Harvest of Gratitude. The pumpkin is from Mark's Finest Papers - Autumn Splendor .

What fantastic stitching on this card. Love the blue and orange color combination. Lots of work put into this card and it shows. A really beautiful card.

Wow, I can see why you've been hoarding this paper - it's gorgeous!! And that little sentiment piece looks exactly like leather because of the straight stitching. Amazing. Love the 3-D pumpkin, too!
