It’s hard to believe Halloween will be here soon. Wasn’t it just Christmas? :). Today I have a cute rather than creepy Halloween card that’s clean and simple with lots of bright, happy color. I started off with a comic strip background die I cut from Pop Tone Orange Fizz cardstock and adhered it to the front…
I woke up this morning with the idea for this card stuck in my head. I don’t usually use Perfect Pearls because I have an aversion to fine dusts and loose glitters (my desk is right under an A/C vent). But, there was a sheet of Pop-Tone Hot Fudge on my desk that I wanted…
Living in Houston, TX, I don’t really get four seasons anymore, but I like to pretend it’s fall and ignore the fact that it’s still 90 degrees outside. To help support my delusion I wanted to create some fall decor. I went with a wreath to hang on the inside of our front door and…
Happy Wednesday my crafty friends! It’s Lia at the blog today. Hope you are enjoying the colorful Autumn. Today I’m gonna show you two cards using the cut and emboss folders. Since some of the background color will be shown through the cut regions, I picked a bright orange cardstock (Curious Metallic Mandarin 111 lb)…
Sometimes a simple thanks is just that… not complicated or crowded out with detail. That’s exactly what I’m sharing with you today. I started with some basic supplies to create a fall look to my card. Savoy Cotton, Dark Orange and Brown Bag cardstocks. I knew that because I was using the cotton cardstock, Distress…
Fall is by far my favorite time of the year. I love when the weather cools down; the colors for fall are just gorgeous. I think I might actually like decorating for fall just as much as Christmas. Today I have some paper pumpkins to share. I have all of my fall decorations out but…
It’s hard to believe it’s September already. I know the leaves will be changing colors soon here in Michigan. Those thoughts inspired my card for today. I like to send cards on holidays when someone isn’t expecting one. Thanksgiving is one of those holidays when I do that. I created these cards with that occasion…
I love that just by seeing Fall colors, you get a feeling for what the season is all about. A calm warmth, getting settled in for the colder weather, leaves changing, hot drinks :)…..For today’s project, I wanted to capture that feeling on a card with some ink blending and simple stamping. I started off…
Happy Monday! Do you have a bunch of seasonal decorations that you swap out through the year? Our house didn’t really have a place for me to set up a pretty display until this past weekend. I finally got the shelf I wanted for the corner of the kitchen, so now I have a place…
Fall is here and it’s time for all fun things fall…including pretty fall cards. This month everything gold, brown and orange is on sale at CutCardStock.com-YAY! Exactly what I needed for this quick card. I actually pulled out Perfect Pearls to create a background quick, and I think it really packs a punch…LOVE! Thanks for…
Hello my dear crafty friends! It’s Lia here at the blog today. I’d like to show you a cool technique called “ink smooshing” to make an autumn leaf. First put some distress ink on to a plastic board. You may use acetate paper as well. The colors I picked were festive berry, twisted citron and…
The season of baking is upon us! Looking for a quick and pretty way to package some little treats this fall? These autumn cookie pouches are a great small gift for friends and neighbors or would make a cute party or wedding favor too! Start by trimming a piece of Kraft Wood Grain Cardstock to…
