Cinnamon Pumpkin
September 3rd, 2007
Just a quick post to share a card I made while playing with Scratch’n’Sniff embossing for my class coming up this Friday. I was going to borrow Carved and Candlelit from a friend, but I have always liked it so I decided to just go ahead and order it. It’s such a cute set!
The base of this card is Really Rust and I wheeled it twice with the Spooky Skyline jumbo wheel – first in Rust and then in Chocolate. It has that scary double-vision effect. LOL. The jack-o-lantern was stamped in craft ink (pumpkin pie, close to cocoa and black) and heat embossed with a mixture of clear embossing powder and cinnamon – mmmmmm…smells yummy! I used orange eyelets (’cause I had my Crop-a-dile out and wanted to try setting eyelets with it) and then used some Only Orange cs for matting. The new wide satin chocolate ribbon is tied in a knot for the finishing touch. When I first saw this ribbon in the catalog I honestly couldn’t see myself using it on cards, but now that I have the chocolate I love it and I need to order the pomegranate too! Big surprise, huh?
I have a few spots left for my class this Friday night. If you’re in the area and want to come, let me know. Fee is $12 and we will make 3 projects (one of them using Scratch’n’Snif embossing). 🙂
Happy Labor Day and thanks for stopping by.

Mmmm, cinnamon. I love cinnamon! I’ll have to give this a try. I love Carved and Candlelit too. I have had mine for a couple of years now and I am not tired of it yet. Cute card! I like the look of the chocolate ribbon and the orange eyelets.

Hmmm…$12….does that include airfare? 😉
The card is so cute! I have wanted that wheel since I first saw it in the catty!

Oh, I love it! I haven’t tried the scratch ‘n sniff yet but I think I may want to do it for Thanksgiving cards with this set. Hmmmm…thanks for the idea! I like the Only Orange mat on the Pumpkin Pie background–nice contrast without losing the warm, Fall look. Great card, Jami!
