Fall Card

I made a beautiful Fall card.

The card itself is a golden yellow. I try and keep things if I know I will use them later. In my previous post I had cut some leaves. I liked what was left so kept it and cut it out to use on a card. The brown leaf is cut at 3 1/2" and the green that is cut out is at 4". They are from Create A Critter. I used a white gel pen around everything and inked around the edges of the green box. I used some orange gingham ribbon to try and bring in more fall colors. I really like the way this turned out and can't wait to use the other "leftovers" I have.

Fall Crafts

I have been in the mood for Fall. I love that time of year. I decided to make some crafts to decorate my home.

I started with these paper pumpkins. I cut 1 inch by 6 inch strips and used brads to hook them together. I tried several different things to top them but like that they all look different, just like real pumpkins.




I also made a couple other items. I cut the flower pot box from the Cindy Lou cartridge at fit to page which made it 5 3/4. I then cut a pumkin at 5" from Create A Critter and attached to one side of it. For the other one I cut leaves from Create A Critter out of brown, orange, green and yellow. I inked around their edges and attached them to the box on all sides.
