Fancy of Fall

 Hi! I'm finally posting again after the hard drive on my laptop

 crashed. What a mess, but thank goodness for son's who know how to retrieve files from a fried hard drive!

Today I am sharing three digital layouts using the new collection, Fancy of Fall by D's Designs. This mega collection contains loads of elements in gorgeous Autumn colors.

My layouts feature my beautiful granddaughters and use several of the elements from Fancy of Fall.

Here is a preview of all that's in this collection.

Fancy of Fall can be found here:

I absolutely love the colors and elements included in this collection!

It's Pumpkin Time

HI!

It's pumpkin time!

Today I am sharing a pair of pumpkin boxes made with the My Scrap Chick file Fall Pumpkin Box.

Materials

Fall Pumpkin Box file by My Scrap Chick

Patterned cardstock from "Old World Stack" by DCWV

brown cardstock by recollections

green lanyard

green and orange twine from Dollar Tree

dark orange leaf ribbon from Dollar Tree

Glue Dots and glue

The pumpkins go together quickly and easily.  I enlarged them to about 6 inches tall. I inked all the edges with orange ink. I added the dark orange leaf ribbon to the bottom edge of the top half of the pumpkin using a combination of glue and small glue dots.

For the top of the pumpkin, I first attached the stem using glue and a large glue dot. Then I inked and shaped the leaves, and glued them down around the stem. I tied a bow around the stem using about a foot each of orange and green twine. The last step was adding the vines.  These were made from green lanyard.

I wrapped the lanyard snugly around a pen and taped the end in place. I then left it in front of a heat source for a few minutes. (I put mine in front of a portable heater.) After it cooled, I unwrapped it and cut it into lengths about 4 to 5 inches long. Using small glue dots, I attached one end behind the stem.

And then this is the finished Fall Pumpkin Box! These will be used for Halloween treat boxes for my granddaughters.

These were so quick and easy to make! 

Thanks for stopping by! 

Happy crafting!

Autumn Fairy House

Today is New Release Day at Little Blue Button Stamps, and I used "Fairy House" for my Autumn themed card. You can find the new releases here:
http://lbbstamps.com/product-category/new-releases/

My card is 5 by 7 inches. I printed my image at 5 inches and colored it with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. I used light blue cardstock for the background and used a cloud embossing folder from Darice. This was mounted on a wine colored mat. The card base is bright green. I used a leaf patterned cardstock from my stash for the ground. I added four paper leaves, two daisy borders with yellow gems and a pre-made butterfly. The last addition was yellow twine across the top and an Autumn "metal word bit" by Miss Elizabeth's.

Be sure to check out all the great LBB Stamps New Releases.

Scarecrow Delight

I have a weakness for scarecrows, so I just had to make these adorable scarecrow cards from My Scrap Chick. I used Scarecrow Easel Card and Scarecrow Cocoa Pocket Card  for my cards.

MSC files used.

                                                                                                     

This pocket card is perfect for gift cards, cocoa packets or tea packets.

I used "Harvest House" and "Dots, Stripes and Plaids" from DCWV  for most of my cards. Other papers were from my scrap stash. The sentiment is from Digital Delights by Louby Loo.

If you are a scarecrow lover like me, give these cards a try. They are super fun and easy to do. 

Hope you enjoy this beautiful Fall day!

Owl and Kitty Belly Boxes

Hi, Today I am sharing two little belly boxes that I made for my granddaughters. One granddaughter is kitty crazy and the other has a thing for owls.

I used Files from My Scrap Chick.

For the Kitty Belly Box I used Black Cat Belly Box Trio    

This belly box is seven inches tall. I made the pumpkin pieces from glitter cardstock and attached the pieces with foam tape to add more dimension. I used one inch googly eyes on my kitty. 

For the owl, I used Owl Gradution Trio and Witch Hat Halloween Treat Box for the hat.

When making the owl, I left out the cap and diploma. The owl box is 5 1/2 inches tall and the hat is six inches tall. I used foam tape again in the construction of the owl,  and also again used googly eyes. The hat was made from glitter cardstock. 

I'm sure my granddaughters will love these belly boxes. They are so easy and fun to make. Thanks for stopping by!
