I could have went in a lot of different directions with the Fall Theme: Apples, Pumpkins, Sunflowers, but decided to use the beautiful Mums from Kitchen Sink Stamps Multi Step Harvest Set, aren't they pretty!
Pulling colors from the Cloud 9 Papers, I stamped the Bushel Basket and Mums on White card stock. For the background panel, I stamped the sentiment in Chocolate on Saffron card stock, then embossed using the Woodgrain Texture Fades Folder. Color was added using the Cuttlebug Highlights Technique.

Ink - SU Rose Red, Caramel, Artichoke, Green Galore, So Saffron, Summer Sun, Chocolate
Card Stock - White, So Saffron, Chocolate, Pumpkin
Other - Big Shot, Texture Fades Folder, 1/4" Circle Punch, Cloud 9 Paper
