For this week’s template, we are creating a Simple Card Sketch with Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper. I love how this Simple Card Sketch with Autumn Opulence can be used to showcase the perfect Fall look. For my cards today, I’m featuring the gorgeous Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper from the September Online Exclusives.
I’m also featuring the Glow of Harvest Sentiment, the August Product of the Month, along with a sentiment from the Thanks and Giving Stamp Set, also part of the September Online Exclusives.

In yesterday’s YouTube LIVE I created this X-Fold Flash Card Fun Fold with you. I was inspired by Connie Stewart with this X-Fold Flash Card Fun Fold, and I immediately fell in love with it. For this project, I’m using the brand-new September Online Exclusive Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper. The gorgeous fall colors and patterns are perfect for showing off this unique X Fold design.
The Sentiment is from the Thanks & Giving stamp set, also from the September Online Exclusive Release.
What I love about this fold is that it stands beautifully for display but folds completely flat. This does fit in a standard medium envelope as well.
