In this tutorial, I’ll be showing you how to make my Stampin’ Up! Caring Leaves card using the cutesy Sweet Days of Autumn 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper and the newly introduced Autumn to Remember 12″ x 12″ Two-Tone Cardstock. This card celebrates the rich, layered textures of fall, with autumn leaves perched on a circle of Two-Tone Cardstock revealing the white core. Keep watching because I’ll also share a second card using the same technique that is too cute for words!

There is the stunning Splendid Autumn 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper (DSP). So why would I prefer the Sweet Days of Autumn DSP? The Splendid Autumn is too elegant for the less formal leaf stamps from Caring Leaves. The two pair together so well. Like fonts, patterned papers have personalities, too.
