  • Fall is…

    Fall is…

    We just got back from a wilderness resort/retreat and it was amazing! My kind of holiday, not hot, in the wilderness and super cozy.

    For this week’s inspiration over at Inspired By I was inspired by the theme, the sketch (loosely) and the pumpkins.

    I used the Here Comes Autumn collection from Echo Park once again.

    To emboss the main panel I used a Stampin’ Up embossing folder to add some dimension and then stitched some scraps on. I then mounted the quote snd elements on foam squares 

    That’s all from me today. Need to catch up around home! Have a great weekend and I can’t wait to see how you are inspired.

  • Cozy Fall

    Cozy Fall

    Hey everyone, I am here to share my take on this week’s Inspired By Challenge.. So many ideas I had with this one because there are so many fun elements in the photo! I decided to go with the fall theme, the coffee and an animal.

    If this image looks familiar, yes I did use this stamp last week too. It is just so darn cute! It is from the Mice & Cozy stamp set from Unity, which is on sale right now!

    For the coffee cup die cut I used an old CTMH die – it is actually to make a shaped card, but it was the perfect size to allow the stamp to fit on the coffee sleeve. I used the Feels Like Fall collection from Echo Park once again too.

    That’s all from me today. I hope. you have a great day. Be sure to grab this cute stamp set while it is on sale!

  • A Little Fall Hello

    A Little Fall Hello

    I LOVE fall and making fall cards so this week, I was all over the Inspired By Challenge. I was inspired by the leaves, theme and sketch and had fun on this one

    I used the Feels Like Fall collection by Echo Park. After adhering the die cut background (die from CTMH) I dug out an old punch and punched the leaves. Once they were down I stitched on them

    I then used the Mice & Cozy stamp set from Unity, coloured it, fussy cut it out and mounted on foam squares. The Fall die is from Honey Bee Stamps.

    I then just added a few buttons.

    That’s all from me today. Have a great weekend!

  • Hello Autumn

    Hello Autumn

    Hey everyone, I am heading out today for our last camping trip of the season. Then I will be fully into fall mode! For this week’s Inspired By Challenge I was inspired by the theme and the sketch.

    I used the Here Comes Autumn collection from Echo Park. I kept it simple as we just had company leave and I was getting ready for camping and didn’t have a lot of crafty time! The embossed vellum was done using a Stampin’ Up embossing folder. 

    The little acorn is a sticker that I adhered to some scrap paper and fussy cut so that I could mount on foam squares. 

    Cute story. My father in law picks up all the acorns that drop on his boulevard each year as he doesn’t want any oak trees growing. When I was teaching grade one, I told him they would be fun to have in class for the kids to count, sort etc. Each year he would give me a bucket full and always be sure to tell me how many was in it. LOL

    Can’t wait to see how you are inspired this week.

  • A Little Fall Hello

    A Little Fall Hello

    I am sitting here drinking my tea with a light blanket over my legs because the morning is cool. I love it. Means, fall is just around the corner so this card is perfect… A little fall hello – this new Mice & Cozy Unity stamp is a must have! Those little mice are so darn cute!

    I kept the design simple as I wanted the mice to be the spotlight. I did emboss the inner white panel using an old CTMH leaf folder. The die cut letters are also from CTMH. I stamped the mice, coloried with copics then fussy cut them out.

    Of course, as always, I mounted them on foam squares for some dimension.

    If you love fall at all, then you need this stamp set don’t you think? It is on sale right now, so no better time to grab it!
