Pumpkin Spice Makes Everything Nice…
I’m not sure about you, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Fall season! So the thought of Pumpkin anything will always bring a smile to my face. This is the inspiration for my “Fall Gnomes” Stamp Sets.
Pumpkin Spice Gnome…
For this simple but very colorful A2 Fall card, I used Ink n’ Splatter’s “Pumpkin Spice” Stamp Set and coordinating Die Set (sold separately)
and the “Autumn Cozies” Pattern Paper Collection
Card Base…
For my card base, I cut, scored, and folded a piece of Kraft Card Stock to an A2 size A Frame Card
I cut a panel from white card stock approximately 4′ x 5.25″ and another panel approximately 3.75″ x 5″ from “Autumn Cozies” Pattern Paper Collection and attached it with foam adhesive
To add a little contrast, I cut a strip of pattern paper approximately 1.75″ x 4.75″ and attached it on the left side of my card with foam adhesive.
COLORING…
I stamped all my image from the “Pumpkin Spice Gnome” Stamp Set on marker paper with black hybrid ink. I colored my Gnome using Copic markers.
I die cut a stitched circle from white card stock and added some texture with watercolors. Then I attached my Gnome to the stitched circle.
But before I placed my image only card, I cut a strip of Kraft Card Stock, approximately 1″ x 4″ and another piece of white card stock .5″ x 4″ to place in the center. I wrapped the strips with cord, tied a cute bow on the side edge of the strips, and placed it toward the bottom of my card. Then I attached my Gnome and stitched circle with foam adhesive.

“Pumpkin Spice Makes Everything Nice” Lastly, my sentiment was stamped, from the same stamp set, on white card stock, and cut with a stitched banner die.
Finally, I attached the banner to the mid-top of my card with foam adhesive and added a few coordinating enamel dots. My adorable Pumpkin Spice Gnome Card was finished.
I hope I have inspired you today to create something Fabulously Fun & Heart-Warming. Your creations will bring you, or someone else, a little bit of joy for the moment.
