Fall birthday card

Hope everyone is having a good weekend! Mine has had it's ups and downs! One of the "ups" was creating this adorable fall-themed birthday card for Party Time Tuesdays.

I used Create a Critter for the pumpkin and leaves, Basic Grey Green at Heart 6x6 pad for the patterned paper, and my new Scrappy-Mom's stamp set "Everyday Greetings" :)

Papercraft Star Challenge #17!

This fun Halloween photograph from Martha Stewart Living is the inspiration for Challenge 17. Use it to inspire any papercraft project your heart desires and then be sure to enter your project here any time between now and 12 noon on Saturday October 16. Your entry makes you eligible to win the People's Choice Award Button and Challenge Sponsor Prize, as well as enters you to win the Grand Prize that we will select randomly at the end of the month.

I decided to make an elegant Halloween card, using Basic Grey's Eerie collection. I kept it simple using layers of patterned paper and coordinating cardstock. The sentiment is a Studio G stamp that I embossed in black. I don't normally stamp on patterned paper, but I love the result ;)

TGIF!

Rice Krispies!

I made these adorable treat bags using Create a Critter for the challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut :)

Are you digging the flowers? They were our wedding centerpieces. Decided to bring them back to life! :)

One Shoe Can Change Your Life.

Really! Inspired from the current challenge at My Favorite Things and my favorite fictional character -

I will spare you the mushy, gushy details about why I loved this movie growing up and still do today :) My hubby bought me a plaque for Christmas our second year together (and it hangs in my closet) that says "one shoe can change your life".

Which inspired this card -

I love it :) Simple and fun. I cut the shoe with my Sure Cuts a Lot program in grey cardstock and loaded it up with diamond stickles for a sparkly, glassy look :)

Thanks for stopping by!!

You make me...

I made a card today for one of my new favorite stamp companies, My Favorite Things!

I love this Emma & Wyatt stamp set and made this card for my hubby :)

So cute!
