Hello and welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations Blog Hop where we are working with a Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge. I have chosen a diagonal line featuring ‘orange, layers and torn’. Now orange is a colour I rarely use so this challenge was way out of my comfort zone. I made my card using the adorable Tractor & Co bundle to make my card.
Colours used to make this card are:
To recreate the abundance of pumpkins card, you will need:
Cajun Craze card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Timid Tiger card – 5⅞” by 2¼”
Basic White card – 5⅞” by 1¼”
Pumpkin Pie Card – 4½” by 2¾”
Basic White card – 4⅜” by 2⅝”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card
I tore the long edges of the 5⅞” by 2¼” piece of Timid Tiger and the 5⅞” by 1¼” piece of Basic White card. Using a Sponge Dauber I added Cajun Craze ink to the torn edge of the Timid Tiger piece and then adhered the two pieces together. The whole piece was trimmed down to 5¾” before it was glued to the Cajun Craze card base.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped two trailers using Cajun Craze ink. Four small wheels were then stamped in Secret Sea ink, and everything was then die cut using the Tractor & Co Dies. The wheels were glued to the trailers.

The pumpkin image was inked up with Pumpkin Pie ink and Cajun Craze ink added to the bottom with a Sponge Dauber before the image was stamped on scrap Basic White card, this step was repeated. The pumpkins were then die cut and added behind the trailers.

Using Blending Brushes I added Smoky Slate ink to the small panel of Basic White card to give the illusion of ground. Blueberry Bushel ink was added to the sky with a Blending Brush.

The trailers full of pumpkins were the mounted onto the inked panel on Dimensionals. The whole panel was the glued to the Pumpkin Pie layer and the whole panel was then added to the card front with liquid glue on the bottom and Dimensionals on the top.

I stamped the sentiment, from the Spring Corners stamp set, was stamped in Secret Sea ink on scrap Basic White card. I trimmed the sentiment down and added it to the card front.
Sparkle Gems were added to each wheel to finish the card.
