Happy Halloween!! With one of my children off at college, and the other one in the 8th grade.  Halloween isn't as festive as it used to be.  I still wanted my son to feel special (he is going to a Halloween Party, not trick or treating) so I made his a little candy filled glasine bag. The "boo" letters were die cut from the black Fancy Pants corrugated card stock, using Lawn Fawn Cuts.  I adhered the diecuts onto the tag (Fancy Pants True Friend Tags), and added a few alphabet sticker as well as a cute owl sticker.

Happy World Card Making Day Here is a fun card I created in celebration of today. I loved that the feather diecuts from the Fancy Pants Burlap & Bouquets Ephemera pack, coordinate with the Feathers dies I have from Spellbinders.  I love that I could combine the two.  Feathers are still on trend, and probably will be for a while longer.  I remember when I would find a random bird feather on the ground as a child, I would think that the feather was magic. I used Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares to help give my project dimension.  A lot of times, when I feel like a card isn't working, if I add 3d foam squares it gives it that right touch to help balance out my card.  I think it may be a visual thing for me...projects that seem flat, kind of confuse my eyes.  Like there isn't somewhere for them to settle. I absolutely love this sentiment!  The combination of the fonts work so well.  It is a Lawn Fawn stamp s...

Y'all how is tomorrow October 1st? Normally I have started my Christmas shopping by now, and I have not.  I feel like I am living on the edge, but I'm okay with that lol. I freaking LOVE Christmas...like i love it so much, I would marry it.  Christmas is my very favorite holiday.  But it kinda stresses me out, not gonna lie.  Every year, I try to get ahead by starting cards early, but time just slips away from me. But that does not stop me from trying!! Today, I am sharing a few Christmas cards that I recently created, to get ahead in the game.  Both of them were created using the Fancy Pants Designs, Oh Deer! Collection. I did a more layered card with lots of fun embellishments, and then a more toned down simple card.  I know everyone one has different styles and tastes.  So I am hoping today serves you all :) Here is a more simple card using the same collection: Materials Used: Fancy Pants Designs Oh Deer!

There is still a chance to win great prizes, so head on over to the Lawn Fawn Blog , to check things out!

Today, I am sharing a tag project using the Snow Day stamps & coordinating dies.  There are more projects using this set over on the Lawn Fawn Blog , as well as a giving away. I absolutely love making tags.  They are smaller than a card, making it easier to find balance.  Sometimes cards are just too big for some stamps. I wanted to watercolor different shades of blue onto watercolor paper.  I tend to do this when my husband is watching something uninteresting (like football) on television.  So I watercolor, let it sit overnight, ready for me to use in the morning. The reason why my stamp is smeared...is because I stamped my sentiment, then sprayed the paper with a shimmer spritz, and it totally activated the watercolor & the ink, making it run.  I still like my project.  But I guess the lesson I take away, is spritzing shimmer before you stamp? So far, I have a nice little stash of holiday cards ready to be used for Christmas, which m...
