All About Autumn Specialty Paper
Coppers, textures, jewel tones, oh my! The All About Autumn Specialty Paper by Stampin’ Up! brings in the best elements of fall. The double-sided paper features detailed photographs of crisp golden leaves, weathered antique books, bright orange pumpkins, and organic earthy textures. The alternate sides show exquisite patterns interwoven with distressed copper foil.
Use this paper to create stunning greeting cards or gift tags that evoke the coziness of autumn. In this card, I used small pieces of the different papers, paired up with the So Sincere Stamp set, for an easy all-occasion card that would be easy to duplicate many times over!
I also pulled the colors for this card straight from this gorgeous paper. Super easy to coordinate the cardstock, ink, and embellishments! You can find other color palettes for your cardmaking in my Color Inspiration Library. Let me show you how easy it is to make this card!
