Time to Flourish Mums and Pumpkins Card: Cheery Lynn Guest DT
Hello, Friends! There’s nothing prettier than a whole bunch of pumpkins paired up with pretty fall mums. They are on display together everywhere at this time of year and they inspired the theme for today’s post. This Mums and Pumpkins Card is made with Cheery Lynn dies and Graphic 45 Time to Flourish paper.
You wouldn’t think that purple and orange would be such good pals, but they look smashing on this mums and pumpkins card! My designer pumpkins were die cut from patterned paper using the Fall Pumpkin Patch Die. I actually cut three sets of pumpkins: one from kraft paper to use as a base, then I paper pieced the patterned papers on top.
But we said MUMS and pumpkins, didn’t we? The Chrysanthemum Strip Die cuts 6 flower layers with one pass through the machine. Again, I cut my flowers from patterned papers and then added a little flower soft to the centers.
The bright orange doily was cut with the Ornament 1 die. This is really heavy cardstock from Stampin Up, and the die is quite intricate, but it cut through the paper like buttah!
Gatefold cards are so much fun to open!
And here’s the inside in all it’s fall glory! More pumpkins and flourishes on the inside, just for fun!
I’m curious…what’s your favorite color mum? I do love the purple ones, but I’m also very fond of the rust/yellow combination. They all look great with pumpkins, though!
Thanks for stopping by!
Cheerio,

A beautiful fall card Kathy. Your designs are always so gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful card, Kathy, and I love the die cuts. Just one comment: when I clicked to see the Fall Pumpkin Patch Die it takes me to RRR and not Cheery Lynn. The Chrysanthemum Strip Die doesnt have a link. BUT the Ornament 1 Die is Spot On! This isnt a criticism, it’s just an FYI. I love checking out all the details you put into your creations. Thanks!
Hi Kathy,

A great cute and spooky theme, and all the wonderful elements are super.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
