Hi this is Maria. Today we’re making an easy fall card using scraps to make a mat. The One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper and Seasonal Branches Stamp Set are so versatile. The DSP can be fall or Christmas, and the Stamp Set can be spring or fall. I love them!

Instructions:
- Cut your paper to size.

- Use Stampin’ Seal to adhere the 3 x 5 ½ in DSP onto the center of the card front.
- Use a 2 ⅜ in paper punch to get a circle of Basic White.
