Woodland Embossing Folder
I made the pumpkins using two different circle punches, and the leaves using the Bird Builder punch.
How I did the background:
I inked the embossing folder using Pool Party Ink, so that only on the 'recessed' portion would be inked. after running a piece of Whisper White cardstock through, this is the final result you will get.
*A little tip... before you lift the paper from the folder, make
sure to kind of rub the back of the paper so that you will get a fairly
even inking.
The pumpkins were punched from Pumpkin Pie cardstock then layered to
look like pumpkins,also some Whisper White Craft Ink was sponged along
the tops to give them dimension.. The leaves are punched from Soft Suede
cardstock using the Bird Builder punch.
The sentiment was from the Sheltering Tree set, and the little 'brad' on
the side was made by punching out a small circle, gluing it down, then
covering it with Crystal Effects. This is howI make my own custom
'brads' or 'epoxy elements'.

A 2nd Method by Stampingnightowl:
I have received so many questions about how I made the card that I quick wanted to post some instructions. I used an Early Espresso marker to ink the dark areas on the embossing folder and ran it through the Bigshot. Then I took a sponge dauber to ink the raised tree trunks with Whisper White craft ink. For the snow in the trees I applied glue with the new fine tip glue pen and sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds over it. The little bird is from the Sprinkles of Life stamp set. I took my marker and added a little triangle on the head and some tail feathers and voila it looks like a Red Cardinal. Hope that helps.
