FALL... in love

By
So I just did this great project for a co-worker.  She is having a church function and asked me if I can do some altered wood letters in the theme of the party. In this case, is it "FALL...in love"   I had a lot of fun with these.  Started with some white wood letters.  I dry brushed them in brown acrylic paints.

 I let them dry and added some stickers in different colors and shapes to sparkle them a little.

  Lastly, I cut out some leaves using my cricut and inked them to make them look autumn like.


I am going to enter this in this weeks challenge for Celebrate the Occasion blog- #84 FALL.  I just love this site and all the work the DT does!

Two other great challenge blogs are on Tuesdays and they are Twisted Tuesday:  this week in the 5th tuesday so anything goes.  Whatever you are currently working on and that would be this project.

And Party Time Tuesday is also having an Anything Goes challenge.  I know this isn't a card but I'm on a roll, lol!!!  They also have a DT position open if your interested.

Last but certainly not least is Die Cuttin' Divas, one of my favorites and I just LOVE the name!!!!  This week is anything goes too.  It seems to be the running theme for the week!!!!  This is where my cute little leaves, from Gypsy's Wanderings, comes in!

So there you have it!  Thanks for stopping by...

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
