I incorporated November 22 from the Capture the Date stamp set to make one layer of my background paper. I used the Thanksgiving stamp from the So Grateful set for my additional layer. I fussy cut my pumpkin and layered onto my Perfect Fit Frame, which was cut with the Art Philosophy cartridge. I folded down the top edge of my burlap strip to give my card a cleaner finish. My card is based on the sketch challenge this week at The Paper Players-
I added an additional layer of pattern paper from the Florentine Paper pack to finish out the inside of my card. The colors are perfect for Fall.
