Victorine Originals Round and Round Challenge

Our challenge this week at Victorine Originals is Round and Round.

Make a circle card. I decided to try my hand at an easel card. Below it is popped open, but it does lie flat for mailing.

I inked the Jack O Lantern stamp(74272-I) with orange ink for the pumpkin, the I used Ranger Distress markers to color in the leaves and stem.

I used a circle die to cut out my focal image and layered it onto some halloween dp.

I added a button and twine to prop the easel card up!
