Fall/ Thanksgiving Pumpkin

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

I am still making Fall/Thanksgiving cards. Card is a cream card stock that measures 5" x 6 1/2". Patterened papers are Recollection Autumn. This is one of my favorite Fall paper pads that I have had for years. 

Cricut Cartridges:
Paper Doll Everyday - Boy with the pumpkin is cut 3" high. Large leaf is cut 1.25" wide and smaller leaf is 1" wide.
Holiday Cakes - Happy Thanksgiving is cut 4" wide.
Gypsy Wanderings - Pumpkin Border. I did not record actual size- just cut it a bit smaller that the 6 1/2" width of card. This is used inside the card.
Thanksgiving - Count Your Blessings is cut 5.50" wide - also used inside the card.

Cuttlebug: Diamonds in the rough used on the yellow mat.
A twine bow is added to the pumpkin.

Cricut Pumpkin Pie Box

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Inspired by a couple of challenges for a pumpkin project, I searched in Cricut Design Space for a pumpkin image that I had not cut previously. I chose to go with the pumpkin pie box. Rather than solid colors, I used some pretty patterned papers from K&Company. The pumpkin print is an embossed double-sided paper. The pumpkin is cut from the reverse side of the paper.

Cricut Cartridges:
Thanksgiving Table Decor - Pie box is cut 6" wide. The pumpkin image is included. The pumpkin image has no leaf or vine. I edited a couple of images from the following cartridges to make those cuts.
Doodlecharms - Curly vine on pumpkin is cut 1" wide.
Simply Charmed - Leaf is cut .75" wide. 
Holiday through the Years Iron On - In Everything Give Thanks is cut 4.25" wide. In Everything is used on one side of the box while Give Thanks is used on opposite side of box.

I added a little twine bow and some Gelly Roll pen doodling on the pumpkin. This makes a cute little treat box -- I will add some candy before giving to the recipient.

Opposite side of box!
