StampinB Challenge - One-Layer Card

I was the hostess for this week's StampinBs challenge, and I asked the team to make a one-layer card -- with one proviso: it could not be a white card. I chose Desert Sand for my card.



After embossing the pumpkins at the bottom, I scored the straight lines to make a "frame." I brushed on some pearlescent chalk for coloring and stamped the sentiment in brown.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today.

Stamps: Mark's Finest Papers - Country Thanksgiving
Paper: MFP Desert Sand
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa
Accessories: Sizzix Pumpkin Patch embossing folder, Pebbles pearlescent chalks, Scor-Pal

Lois, the chalking looks great, like the scoring, and it is a super Thanksgiving card.
