Whoo-ligans Wreath And Mini Pumpkins "Oh My"

I found the most amazing wreath last year on two peas made by Holly Hanks 

 Ever since I have been wanting to make one.Feeling a little intimidated by her beautiful craftiness I was not sure I could do it, but after seeing this super cute paper from BO bunny I just had to try.Her tutorial made it so easy to make these fun flowers. I can't wait to make anther for Christmas.Here is a link to her wonderful wreath.

here is mine :)










I also use some of the leftover Bo Bunny Paper to make these sweet little pumpkins.They are super easy.All you do is punch 6 to 8 scalloped circles and fold in half. Aattach one side at a time to matching scallops and then before attaching last side to join them in a ball put a rolled up piece of green paper inside for stem.so fun.

Feeling a Little "Spooky"

So I have been trying to make myself use my stash. With so many new things coming in to the store I am making myself use something old be for I can buy anything new.When I say old its really not old just that I have had it for a little while:) I made this "spooky" banner with a  chipboard album I have had for a while and some Basic Grey Erie papers i just loved from last year.The chipboard I have been trying to use up and thought it was prefect for the look I wanted .love the licorice maya mist its going to come in handy with all the Halloween projects I have going in my head..




thanks for looking.

"Oh Happy Day" October Afternoon's Go Fly a Kite

our three favorite sisters










I just fell in love with this paper about as fast as the sweet sister missionary I made it for.I used a BO Bunny board book and some Maya road tree chipboard. I had to make this pretty quick before sister Lawrence was to go home.Our family was so blessed to have her placed here in this town at just the right time.

Custom Cd Envelopes For my friend Kara Baker









A month ago my friend Kara emailed me asking if I could make her some Cd seleves for her photography busniess.I was honored she thought of me. I had never thought of making things and selling them beffore.I see such pretty stuff on etsy but didnt know if i could make anything so pretty.We found this beautiful paper from K&Company and we feel in love with it. Our friend Nicole Barter designed the stamp for us, we just love her.Yesterday Kara sent me a email saying she was going to take pictures of the envelopes as a gift.I went to look at them on her site and was just so impressed they look so beautiful!!! She is amazing.I sill look at the pictures and can't believe I made them. She is so sweet to photograph them for me.I am thinking of starting to sell them and maybe some cupcake liners and toppers on etsy.It might be a good way to support my paper and glue habit!!!
