Create With Connie & Mary Saturday Blog Hop

Fall Leaves Theme!

Welcome to my blog today, I’m so glad you are visiting. Our Create with Connie & Mary team is celebrating with Fall Leaves today. Stampin’ Up! always has the most beautiful leaf sets. My two loves are butterflies and leaves so when new sets arrive, they are always first on my list.

I am featuring the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set paired with the Peaceful Cabin stamp set for the sentiment.

I let the designer paper sway my color choices for this card.
