Hi there! It's Andrea with you, and today I'm sharing a colorful card featuring some new products from Picket Fence Studios' July release. I am loving the fall vibe of this release!

The inspiration for these cards came directly from the stencils I used, which were Make the World Shimmer A2 Stencil and Rainbow Dreams 6"x8" Stencil.

I don't think I have ever stenciled over patterned paper before, but I love how this card turned out! That beautiful background is from...
