October Guild Kit Whispers of Autumn

Here in the United States the weather is beginning to turn. Days are getting shorter and evening strolls require sweaters to ward off the crisp, cool night air. The leaves have begun to turn and will build in a few weeks time to become a crescendo of color. It is this rich wealth of color that the October Guild kit celebrates. Filled with warm reds, browns, yellows and blues this beautiful kit will set off the autumn light of your fall photos perfectly. The kit includes a paper pack with 14 richly textured 12x12 .jpeg backgrounds. The element set has over 35 coordinating elements including inked frames, acrylic elements, gold filigree lace, floral sprays, ribbons, journaling mats, stamps, stickers and more. The coordinating alpha is a textured metal that captures the light and color of autumn. As a bonus the kit also includes a layered template and a Ready Made layout ™.

The Guild kit is an exclusive benefit of Guild Membership. If you are not yet a member, we invite you to join today! Membership information can be found HERE.
