Tangled Pumpkins
Fall Card by Val

 Val is here to inspire you with a wonderful Fall themed card featuring the beautiful Tangled Pumpkins digi stamp today!
  
Tangled Pumpkins is a wonderful design perfect for all your Thanksgiving and Fall nature themed makes that suits any style and you can have such fun playing with any colour palette too.  Val's card has a wonderful rustic ambience and her Tangled Pumpkins colour palette evokes the beauty of Fall! 


 To make her card Val first printed the Tangled Pumpkins digi stamp out onto white cardstock and coloured them with Promarkers with white gel pen detailing and then she fussy cut them out.  She made her background with the Cracked Tim Holtz Texture Fade embossing folder and embossed kraft cardstock she'd pre-coloured with Craft Artist Magic Powders.  Next she mounted the embossed panel onto a mat layer cut from black cardstock and then adhered everything to a top fold card she from white cardstock.  To create some fun dimension she adhered the Tangled Pumpkins to her card with foam pads.
