Halloween Wreath

Happy Halloween!
 
Last year I found a couple foam wreaths in the $1 section of Target and used one of them to create this really quick wreath inspired by Kirsteen Gill.  It is wrapped with some of our 1 1/4" burlap ribbon and some leftover ribbon from last year's Sale-a-bration.


 
Supplies:
Halloween Banner Simply Created accessory kit
1 1/4" Burlap
retired ribbon

Fall into Fall

We have a new challenge starting today at Late Night Stampers - fall themed projects.  You can see the rest of the design team's samples and play along with us right here.

 
I made and envelope from the napkin holders in the Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit and used a few other pieces from that set on the card as well.

 
There must have been too many things going on on this card for the camera to focus on it, LOL!  I used the painter's tape technique on the background as well as behind the sentiment and behind the leaves I stamped and cut out.
 
Supplies:
Loving Thoughts, Magnificent Maple
Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake, Baked Brown Sugar card stock
Cajun Craze, Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, Baked Brown Sugar, Crumb Cake ink
Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit

Baby Feet


As I prepare for a craft show coming up, I discovered I didn't have too many baby cards in my stash so I put together these simple ones.  The sentiment is from God's Blessings which is retired, but I love the sayings in it so plan to keep it around.

 
I used a strip of Quatrefancy specialty paper for the baby girl card and Winter Frost specialty paper for the baby boy one.
 
Supplies:
Cherished Moments, God's Blessings
Quatrefancy specialty paper
Winter Frost specialty paper
Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Pink Pirouette card stock
