As soon as I started assembling my Pumpkin Patch set from the Holiday Mini catalog I thought of these cute little pumpkin heads. This set is more versatile than you might think. You could use the pumpkin shapes (ovals and a circle) to make balloons, Easter eggs, eyes on a face, flower petals, Christmas ornaments and I'm sure you can think of more. You could stamp sentiments on them, punch them out, and layer them too. So, when you look at this stamp set don't just think of Halloween, there are many uses for these stamps! Just a note...see that black circle in the middle of the striped ribbon? That's one of our large chocolate brown brads! Yep, I just dabbed the brad into my Basic Black Craft pad and used my heat tool to dry it. Pretty cool huh?? So, think of our large brads and having them in any of our 48 beautiful Stampin' Up! colors!! One more thing...I created the jagged edge using our Straight Scallop punch. Just punch once then shift your cardstock and punch again over the already punched scallops!
Have a wonderful day!!

Very clever! And I LOVE your jagged punch edge - how many million years would I use that punch without thinking of that?
Thanks for sharing you ideas!
Card looks great! I love the pumpkins, how you did the edge, and colouring of the giant brad. You are just too clever! Way to Go!
This is absolutely adorable! Great job with the entire card!
They are sooooo funny and adorable. They put a big smile on my face. Thanks!
