Thankful

 Yep, ever now and again I'm able to post a couple times in one day!

Seeing as my Just Some Lines DT post was on autopilot, this one is not!

I posted yesterday to the Hard Core Crop Challenge, and today I have another posting for that set of challenges!

I made this fabulous banner using different core'dinations card stock that I

dry embossed with my big kick.

Then I sanded down the paper to bring out the beautiful designs.

Here are a couple of close ups...  

 

Then I used my circle punch and some leftover scraps to made the circles.

Added a quick glittery letter, and we are all set!

For the picture I had the banner set up outside, 

but it will be gracing a small wall in my livingroom!

 

As it gets closer to Thanksgiving here in the US, I begin to think of all the things I'm

Thankful for, and I know having the ability to create some fabulous pieces is definitely up there on the list!

 

I hope you are taking some time out of your busy weekend to craft a little something!

Only a few more days til Halloween!

I hope you all have your costumes picked out and ready to go??

I don't think we'll be able to do any dressing up this year, but it's always fun to color

up some fun Halloween images!

This is one of my oldish La la land crafts stamps!

I colored her up using my distress inks, some water, and a paintbrush!

I added a little glitter to her hat,

and I mounted her onto a scrap piece of striped cardstock

Added a few strips of halloweeny ribbon, and the sentiment!

I love how quick and fun ATC's can be!

 

Tomorrow is the Friday of my very long work week, and I'm looking forward to having my weekend, and possibly getting to enjoy Halloween!

Fall harvest

Sooo... Multi fold cards are fun!

No, I mean it!!! Fun!!

Last week Designed to color challenged us to share our 

Harvest creations... I knew this cute image fromSaturated canary was the 

Perfect image to use!! 

Can you see the pretty Indian corn in her basket??
And the fun banners on the side?
Of course you can...
So then opening one flap reveals

A pumpkin... Also a harvest product, and the cut fall tag

I did a little distressing on the edges, and the banner is run through a couple of eyelets...

I just wanted to have fun... Now it's back to Halloween creations!
