Hello there! I know lots of you out there are sending your children off to school this week (and last), well in the south at least.  That means fall is right around the corner!  Living in Florida means summer kind of drags out to October, so fall here is just a few weeks.  But it truly is fantastic!  Warm days, cooler nights and no humidity. Anyhow, fall means fall projects.  Like Halloween, back to school, Thanksgiving, celebrating the harvest! Lawn Fawn is in the middle of August Inspiration Week, and everything has been fall themed.  Today is no different, as I am showcasing a stamp/die set called Happy Harvest.  Again don't hate me, I'm seriously addicted to this pillow box die, but I made a few pillow boxes using the Happy Harvest stamp set. Make sure you head on over to the Lawn Fawn Blog , to see some fabulous projects by the design team, and for a chance to win this set!! There are so many fun images in this set.  I couldn't d...

Okay people. I am literally obsessed with the die I get to showcase today from Lawn Fawn. Its a pillow box die. A PILLOW BOX DIE!!! Kinda died and went to heaven.  I am so, so, so excited about this product. Head on over to the Lawn Fawn Blog , to check out more great projects and for a chance to win these awesome products! I shared this project with you yesterday.  This is just the pillow box die used on its own. Here is what you get, when you diecut the pillow box with pattern paper, but you also use the Peek A Bat die with it! YOU GET A SUPER CUTE BAT! OMG! Please tell me I am not the only one going nuts lol.

Today, I am sharing a few projects using the new stamp & coordinating die set called Booyah.  The sentiments and images are really super cute, and there are so many fun accessories for the ghost/ghouls. First up is a pillow box that I created using the pillow box die (will show more tomorrow on that die).  Once I diecut the pillow box, I stamped the stars, and sentiment onto the pattern paper before I adhered it together.  I then stamped a ghost and witches hat onto solar white card stock before die cutting the images out.  I colored in the images using Copic markers, tie twine around the treat box and adhered the diecuts to the pill...
