Hi Stampers, today we have a sketch challenge and I wanted to use the new Beautiful Autumn stamp set and the coordinating Gilded Autumn DSP. I love fall and the warm colors that the season brings and this product suite just made me warm and longing for a fire and a cup of tea. The colors in the paper and the stamp set and punch made this so easy to put together. I can’t wait to use more from this suite on future cards.
The sketch:
