With the turn of the calendar to September, many cities, towns, and states can expect a shift to lower temperatures. The foliage begins to turn colors. Fall is on the way. My card sample today reflects those changes. Stampin’ Up!’s Gathering Together 12 x 12 Specialty Designer Series Paper definitely captures the beauty of fall. The colors include: Basic Beige, Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, champagne, and Old Olive.
