A handmade greeting card with a charming fall theme

By | September 27, 2024

Good Afternoon my Stampin’ Friends!

It’s surprising that I haven’t come across any autumn-themed cards featuring the Trucking Along Stamp Set combined with our two pumpkin stamp sets. This is the first one I’ve created – if you’ve spotted any others, please let me know.

Today’s card is a handmade greeting card with a charming fall theme. The main focus is a small white truck with “FARM Fresh” written on its side (from the Trucking Along Bundle). The truck is carrying a stack of orange pumpkins (from Warms My Heart Stamp Set) in its bed, creating a cute autumn scene.

The background of the card depicts a simple countryside setting. There’s a green field with a wooden fence (from the Scenic Pumpkin Patch Stamp Set) running across it, and a pale blue sky above (watercolor paper with Balmy Blue and Green Garden Inks and a Water Painter). This rustic backdrop complements the farm truck and pumpkins nicely, enhancing the overall fall atmosphere.

At the bottom of the card, there’s a small banner that reads “Thinking of You” in handwritten-style text (from the Go To Greetings Stamp Set). The card has a textured white border (Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder) and is layered on a Garden Green background, giving it depth and a finished look. The overall design is simple yet effective in conveying a warm, seasonal message.

The card’s inside features additional layering using Garden Green and Basic White cardstock. To create a cohesive look, the envelope flap was embossed using the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder, tying the entire presentation together.
