You're a Hoot

I made my first card for stampTV today.  This was a color challenge to use brown, kraft, yellow, & red.  I used a Close to My Heart stamp called You're a Hoot for this cute little card.  I raised up my owl to give a little dimension, tied a bow in kraft colored hemp, & distressed the yellow & brown papers.  I hope you like it.

Home Chipboard Album

Sorry, I was feeling lazy after making my cute album & took the pic on my lap.  This was so much fun to make!  Each page has a different shape of chipboard - rectangle, rectangle w/ heart cut out, star, heart, house.  My mom was oohing & ahhing at this one for awhile.  The colors are right up my alley - browns & greens appeal to me.  Love the accent of yellow with it all, too.

Fall is in the air...

I have been more ready for fall this year than usual.  I am looking forward to getting my decorations out, going to the pumpkin patch, grabbing a jacket on my way out the door, making cookies, making up some fun crafts with the kids for fall, going taking the kids trick-or-treating, fall festivals, hay rides, roasting marshmallows, making caramel apples.  I am looking forward to those leaves changing & snuggling up w/ a cup of cocoa or cider. Oh, it all sounds like so much fun to me!   Here is a card I wanted to share that I made real quick after putting the kids to bed.  I used a peach color card base, a green patterned paper w/ an orange stripe over that & a little ribbon.  The pumpkin was made w/ three ovals & inked on the edges.  I raised up the center layer, then cut the stem free-hand & stamped the words in the bottom corner.   I hope you like it!
