Bordering a Pumpkin


Borders along the top, sides, bottom??? Just Rite challenge 015 is to incorporate Beautiful Borders.  I decided it was time to visit te Pumpkin Patch to create this shaped card.  The largest  Spellbinders pumpkin die was used to create the card base. (I traced around it and cut it out to make it 1/4" larger than the largest die).  The first layer was the largest die used on vellum.  An outlines border vine stamp was used to stamp around the "border" of the pumpkin, then colored with Copics and enhanced with Stickles.  The next largest pumpkin die cut a piece of orange cardstock with was then "bordered"/distressed.  with Stampin Up Sage ink.  The final step was to use Outlines Jewel It Pumpkin 3 times, cut layers, coat with Crystal Effects, apply Swarovski crystals and color the stem with Copic markers.  Does this pumpkin card border on pretty?
