Falling leaves

Fall cards are my favorite because I love all the browns and oranges. The paper I used is from the Basic Grey "Max & Whiskers" pet collection. I used the maple leaf from Cuttlebug, but the bad news is that I have very few of them left in stock! They were discontinued a while ago and don't think I can find anymore of them. I did order in some Spellbinders Nestabilities leaves which should be a close look a-like.
The word Thankful is from my favorite clear SRM stickers. They have a set of greetings just for fall!

This Halloween and last...

This is a copy of a card I made last year. This folder comes from a new Cuttlebug 4 pack called "Little Monsters". The other 3 folders in the pack are Halloween related too.

On a close up of the tag, I folded it to look like a flag.

Here is the card from last year (...or maybe the year before). I was able to dig up just a few of this folder because it was discontinued.

Halloween Treats

I am reposting this pail I made last year because it is such a cute and easy gift idea. I used BoBunny Halloween rub-ons to decorate the outside of the pail. I filled the inside with an apple, carmel candy, and an individual sized carmel apple dip.

You could also use Halloween candy or candy corn for the inside. This pail makes a nice teacher or co-worker gift!

Autumn Type

I was able to dig up just a few more of this discontinued Cuttlebug background folder called "Autumn Type". I really love how it adds a subtle hint of fall it to the card.

Pumpkin Spice is back!

The Cuttlebug pumpkin is one of my all time favorite cutting/embossing folders. They were discontinued last year but I was able to locate a few more of them!

SRM Stickers has a new "fall" set of their clear sentiment stickers that would go perfectly with the autumn Cuttlebug folders.

Thanksgiving stamps are starting to arrive too. More Halloween and Fall papers, stickers, and stamps are on their way. I used a folder from the "Cindy Loo" Cuttlebug set for the background on this one.

New MFT stamps (My Favorite Things)

I have some new "Pure Innocence" stamps coming in this week but I really love this one called "My Umbrella". This little set is perfect for Get Well cards!

I also used one of my favorite techniques called "masking" to do the umbrella. You stamp your image on white cardstock and then restamp the umbrella on colored paper. Cut it out very close to the black line and adhere it with pop dots to give it dimension.

I used Copic colors: Duck Blue, Aqua, and Cool Shadow for her jacket.

12x12 Summer Page Class

Get some of those summertime photos scrapbooked in this next class.

We will be making (2) 2 page layouts. One with a Zoo theme...

This set of pages has a lot of detail. The monkeys even have eyeballs!

The second set is a water theme layout...

The bright sunny colors are perfect for pics at the pool, the sprinkler, the beach, Waterworld, or even Splash Lagoon!

You will need to bring:

adhesive, pop dots, and scissors.

Brand New SRM Clear Stickers!

The new SRM clear stickers have arrived! I made this card for the upcoming school year and also added a Cuttlebug border.

The new stickers have black, brown, and white lettering so you can use them with dark colored cardstock too.

Many new "quick card" stickers! These are great for whipping up a card with very little time involved. Stop by and see what's new!

Daisy Fields & Die-Namics

There have been new Penny Black stamps arriving and I specifically thought this "Daisy Fields" stamp was very pretty. I just stamped it in Palette "new canvas" white ink on dark cardstock so it would show up. The decorative paper is Basic Grey, their distressed papers work nicely with this kind of stamp.
The metal template is a new style of die cut that works in your Cuttlebug or Sizzix machine. Its from My Favorite Things and they are called Die-Namics. I have 3 different templates in the store that are perfect for card making. Be sure to check them out!

Birthday Hoot 12x12 kits

Now in stock are 2 page layouts with a birthday theme. There all packaged and ready to be assembled, all you need is adhesive and pop dots. There is a photo packaged with the kit so you can see how it should be put together.

These layouts are super cute with a lot of detail... created by Leanne!

There is both a girl or a boy version of these Birthday Hoot pages!

The color theme is either pink & brown or blue & brown.

Cost is only $10

and the kits are limited so dont miss out!
Samples are available at the shop so you can see the details up close.

New Cuttlebug sets

There are quite a few brand-new Cuttlebug sets that have just arrived!
Almost all of the sets coordinate with a matching Cricut cartridge too. I used a clear SRM sticker for the greeting... brand new SRM stickers are on their way too!

Cuttlebug Butterfly

Many of you have seen the 12 inch Cuttlebug borders and thought they were for 12" pages only. You can use them for cards just as easily! This one is called "butterfly" and its a newer folder from Cuttlebug.

I used my Scor-Pal to make the score marks above the butterfly, works great for nice straight lines. Added some pink pearls, pink sheer ribbon, and topped it off with my favorite SRM clear stickers!

"Toadily"

I took a class last month in Ohio with Tammy Hershberger and was very happy with how my Copic marker coloring trned out... not to mention that I love this frog stamp!

I am almost out of this clear set, but I have more coming next week in clear and a couple wood mounted stamps.

On this one we used the Cuttlebug folder called tiny bubbles to give it the "frog-spot" look.

"Pure Innocence" stamps

Lots of new stamps have arrived from My Favorite Things. This line is so sweet, it's called "Pure Innocence".

I made this card at a Copic Marker class given by Tammy Hershberger in Ohio, I fell in love with this Fred the Bear stamp!

Here is another card colored with Copic Markers.
These stamps are already selling quickly, they are just too sweet!

My Favorite Things also has some really cool scallop dies called "Die-Namics", they are similar to Nestabilities... be sure to check them out! Samples will be posted soon...

Simple Note Card Set

I used the SRM clear stickers to make up these really simple thank you notes.

With a little ribbon and some flowers you can whip up quite a few in one sitting! The sticker sheets have enough to make 18-20 cards.

These flowers come with a sparkly gem already placed for a center. Very easy to match with the ribbon and some black and white paper.

Garage Sale Sign-Ups!

We will be having the 3rd annual parking lot garage sale this year on Sunday, July 11th with a rain date of July 18th.
Sale will run from 9:00 - 1:00

If you have any craft items that are unwanted, unused, or just have way too much...
You will want to round them up and make some money at the garage sale!

If you are interested in selling you will need to bring:
Your own tables, a chair, and money to cash out your sales.
Make sure all your items are priced, and it doesnt hurt to put your initials on them too.

Cost will be $3.00 per person to help pay for the advertising costs.
You will need to contact me to make sure you are on the list.

If you dont want to sell this year, be sure to stop by to pick up some great bargains!

Bicycle built for two!

I used the Kaleidacolor ink pad on this bicycle card, I love the rainbow effect you can get from these pads!

My friends at "Cherished Thoughts" made this card for me! This is one of my all-time favorite Cuttlebug folders and of coarse they used the Dew Drops for accents... another favorite embellishment of mine!
