Autumn Card

I love the colours of autumn so decided to make a card using that colour scheme.  I have used three different gorgeous papers from K&Co which were certainly made for autumn.  The image is from CraftsUPrint.  The flowers and leaves I have made myself.  The card is finished off with some buttons and card candy.
