The leaves are changing colors. There is a nip in the air. It’s time for apple cider! It’s time for pumpkin pie! It’s time to start making fall thankful for you cards to let your family and friends know how thankful you are for them! It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week the super talented Anne Marie is hosting our monthly color challenge. It’s a trio of colors just perfect for fall, with a fourth color of your choice. I picked Old Olive. I can’t wait to see what YOU pick!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
If today’s colors don’t scream “FALL” y’all, I’m not sure what does! I headed straight to the pumpkin patch, or rather the Pretty Pumpkins stamp set, for a trio of pumpkins and a beautiful sentiment. Isn’t this font lovely? I love the script. Paper piecing makes the pumpkins extra special, as do a couple of small leaf die cuts and a branch, courtesy of the Intricate Leaves die collection.
To download the free step-by-step tutorial for today’s Fall Thankful for You card, which includes all the paper measurements and all of the current products used, please click on the button below. For every card which has been posted on my blog this year, there is a free tutorial.

Such a perfectly pretty pumpkin card, Ann! Say that five times fast. Haha! I just love the fab mix of patterns and the green is such a beautiful addition to the challenge colors. Such a beautiful card!
Ann, this is so beautiful! I love the paper pieced pumpkins and the green plaid background! The EE background layer and the scalloped border is fabulous! Your card made me smile!
What could be better than one plaid? Well it has to be three, all beautifully co-ordinated and aligned. Impeccable paper-piecing Ann – a fabulous card!
Ann, I love your paper-pieced pumpkins – and how they echo the background DSP. Genius idea to do that to add additional texture and interest. I love the placement of your sentiment, too. Fabulous card, my friend

Ann, your pumpkins are beautiful. The simple branch and the fact that you stamped on DSP adds so much to this perfectly layered design. Hope you’re having a great week.
This came together perfectly, Ann! I love the pattern leaves and pumpkins and the added tree branch was the perfect touch! Awesome card! Have a great rest of the week!
LOVE these pumpkins…plaid, plain, whatever, I love me some punkins! The addition of the “stick” in the background really makes for a great layout, and the addition of Old Olive is perfect!
Love your trio of pumpkins! The plaid is awesome!
This is the sweetest pumpkin patch I’ve seen! I love all the plaid patterns and you were so diligent getting each layered lined up just so! I love the piecing and scripty sentiment font! Have an awesome week!
I love your card. I had been holding off and getting that stamp set but……..it suddenly appeared on my list! I used to do some paper piecing and love it but I haven’t done it for a long time. Great set to use that technique!
Awwww, Ann , what a beautiful card ,my friend, Tfs
Hugs Frenchie ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Hope all is well , ♥️
