Make A Little Round Pumkpkin Card + Little Pilgrims and Turkey Printables + Squirrel Double Layered Tag

Hi there!  I'm getting ready to head to Savannah.  Hate the travel, but love to see Louisa and Lauren at the end.  I've got a couple of Thanksgiving images for you and a fun tag for a treat.

A cute turkey is a little hard to find, but I think this Turkey Pilgrim is pretty cute.  He's all ready for you to print out if you need a cute turkey for a Thanksgiving creation.

Sweet squirrel colored with copics and topping a scallop double layer tag.  The bag is filled with cinnamon pecans.

Here's a look at both tag layers.

Look at those cuties!  They sure hit my cute and sweet buttons.  And I love little round pumpkins.  So I translated that into a little round pumpkin card!

These are the little round pumpkin pieces.  
The card base is made by placing the circle die just a little above the fold, so when it's ran through the die machine a bit of the fold stays intact.  
I cut two round pieces one for the front of the card and one for the back.
The oval is almost the same height as the circle.
Tips:  Place the stem (I handcut mine) between the back of the white card base and the orange decorative paper.  Placing it on the back, keeps the stem from creasing when the card is opened.
Use distress ink around the edges of the circle piece and oval piece for more definition.

Easy Stenciled Backgrounds + Very Cute Pilgrims + TinyTownie

Cute, cute Pilgrim Kids!  Love this image - it seems to be a companion to THIS ONE from last year.  You can download it below for your Thanksgiving creations. 

It's got so much going on that a simple background works really well.

One color plaid background created with a stencil and stencil brush.

Talking about cute!  I love this Tiny Townie image, too.  

Here's a list of the copics I used to color her.  Very fun!

The stencil background for her is a little more busy and colorful.  The leaves are actually a stamp mixed in with the stenciled circles.  You can see a video I did with a similar background HERE.

Here's a sneak peek of Louisa's first birthday party and a couple of the things I made.  I made the party hats and the tutu on the bear.  We had the teddy bear in her room and she reached for it every morning and when she woke up from her naps.  I'll share more later...
So glad you stopped by!  Happy Creating!

Layered Butterfly Wedding Shower Card

Last week's mission:  Create a special order wedding shower card.   

White seemed a good place to start.  So that's what I did...then I decided it needed a little color.  So I layered a solid butterfly underneath the white one that would hopefully provide what I was looking for and then I used that as a cue for the stamped flower.

Insides and an envelope to match and there you go, a pretty wedding shower card.

Love the layers and textures on this card and I hear that my customer and the recipient love it too!  Yay!  Mission accomplished.
