Join Melissa Phillips today as she shares some tips and tricks for incorporating patterns and textures into your fall projects:
“One of my most favorite things about Autumn crafting is mixing different patterns and textures. And, if you’re anything like me, you have a pretty hefty stash of paper scraps lurking around. My DT Tips today is all about using up those scraps that come in a variety of textures and patterns, and putting them to work in our Autumn crafting. Think plaids, stripes, gingham, fall florals, corrugated and glitter cardstock, felt, trim, fabric, etc.”Supplies:

Love this, Melissa! Better yet, I recently ordered this pumpkin die. It had been on my wishlist forever but now I have it and you’ve given me a great idea for putting it to use. Thanks!
