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!

Halloween Oct. 31

Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

This is another simple Halloween card. Card is cut using the Cricut Simple Holiday Cards cartridge. Happy Halloween 31 Card is cut from green cardstock at 5.50" wide. Liner is cut from black cardstock. When you are trying to meet a deadline, these simple cards are quick and easy to do. It does require time to glue the liner on the card.
