Hi Stamping Friends!
Fall is right around the corner and it's my favorite time of year! The Come To Gather suite in the Holiday Catalog features a fun and versatile stamp set that's perfect for the season…Harvest Hellos.
The interchangeable apple and pumpkin shapes allows you to create projects for fall, for teachers, for Halloween and Thanksgiving. Today, I'm sharing a couple of cool swap cards I received spotlighting the pumpkin images.

Harvest Hellos Hey There, Pumpkin Cards
Talk about simple and sweet! This swap card created by Tracy Jacobs is adorable!
Background Basics—Tracy begins this card by stamping the Harvest Hellos sentiment in Soft Suede ink onto the bottom right corner of a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. She created a foundation for the focal point by texture embossing a 2-1/2" x 4" piece of Crumb Cake cardstock with the 3D Corrugated Embossing Folder. It's all mounted onto a Mossy Meadow card base.
Pretty Pumpkin—Tracy stamped the Harvest Hellos pumpkin image in Soft Suede ink onto a Terracotta Tile gingham pattern from the 2019 In Color 6×6" Designer Series Paper. It's punched with the coordinating Apple Builder Punch. She stamped the curly vine images in Soft Suede onto a 2-1/2" diameter Very Vanilla circle die-cut with the Layering Circles dies, then adhered the pumpkin to it. She also punched out a stem from Early Espresso cardstock and adhered that onto the top of the pumpkin.

Finishing Touches—Tracy stamped the leaf from the stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink onto matching cardstock, hand-cut those and added them around the pumpkin. She finished by tying a bow with Linen Thread and attaching it with a Glue Dot. Super-quick, super-cute!

Swap card created by Monika Davis.
Two Cool—My second swap card, created by Monika Davis, may be even easier to make! Monika started by stamping a few Mossy Meadow Harvest Hellos vines onto a Crumb Cake card base. She also used her Mossy Meadow Stampin' Write Marker to flick some flecks of color onto the background. A skinny 4" x 1/8" strip of Monster Bash Designer Series Paper creates a little foundation for the pumpkins. She stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow just above that.
Pretty Pumpkins—Monika stamped the Harvest Hellos pumpkins in Mossy Meadow ink onto Whisper White cardstock, then colored them using Pumpkin Pie light and dark Stampin' Blends Markers. The stems were stamped in Mossy Meadow and colored with light Old Olive Blends. Both shapes were punched with the Apple Builder punch. The background pumpkin and both stems were adhered with SNAIL and the front pumpkin was popped up with Dimensionals.
Finishing Touches—She added some texture by punching out some Mossy Meadow leaves with the Sprig Punch and some Vellum cardstock leaves with the Leaf Punch. I love how those two leaves in the two styles of papers layer so beautifully together! Like the first card, Monika added a Linen Thread bow to finish.
