Glazed Pumpkin

Tired of my Halloween cards yet? I'm still pumping out Halloween cards because I am a member of a Hero Arts yahoo group, where we RAK two members each month. The green cardstock on the tag was stamped with swirls. A circle punch was used to make the moon and then the witch was stamped. On the card front several layers of paper hold the pumpkin. Can you see the shine on the pumpkin? I used Ultra Thick embossing powder on the pumpkin to give it the shine that real pumpkins have. I'm not pleased with this card, but that's all I could come up quickly as I'm on my way to the YMCA water aerobics class.
My girlfriend, Kathy, made this card for me. Isn't it lovely? I like the crackled wood stamp that was used in the background, that fabulous fibre, and colourful maple leaf. True sign that fall is here.
