Now to share a card I made yesterday using a few of the In-Colors to spark your creativity.

I used the In-Colors: Tip Top Taupe, Delightful Dijon, Mint Macron and Flirty Flamingo
I also used the envelope paper to make a coordinating envelope using the ENVELOPE PUNCH BOARD.  Had to use last years design because I haven't purchased the new yet. So glad I can now get it for 25% off!!

The stamp sets that I used are: 

Best Birds

You've Got This

I stamped the birds and the branch onto Watercolor Paper then used an Aquapainter.  You have to be careful with the Delightful Dijon because it is a pretty dark yellow, but I love how it turned out.  

In fact, the ladies might see this card on a COME STAMP WITH ME TUESDAY class

Scarecrow Treats

I love the little scarecrows so much and I had a few left over from the Craft Sale Treat bags I made (shown on yesterday's blog post) that I attached them to a jar of yummy M&M's, added the Sentiment on the top and tied a piece of burlap ribbon around it.  The Burlap ribbon comes 5/8" wide so I cut it down the center for a narrower ribbon.

I only made 5 of these so if these are exactly what you were looking for, for your Fall Treats then meet us at the Georgetown Bible Church on October 15th from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.

Give Thanks

I just love this cute little scarecrow from the COOKIE CUTTER HALLOWEEN Stamp Set. This is one of the cards that they ladies made at the September Card Club.  Be sure to purchase the COOKIE CUTTER PUNCH when buying this set for ease in creating your cards and projects.

I have enjoyed using this cute little fella on some craft sale items.

If you live in our area we hope you will join us at the Georgetown Bible Church Craft Sale on October 15th.  They can be found at 4114 Baldwin, Hudsonville, and we will be there from 9am to 3pm.  I will share some of those cute treats in a later post.  

You can find the "GIVE THANKS" in the SUITE SEASONS Stamp Set and the beautiful leaves were made using the VINTAGE LEAVES Stamp Set and LEAFLETS Framelits.

Celebrate!!

Today is our Daughter-in-law, Jessica's, birthday!  When I saw a fun banner made by Linda Schnabel I wanted to give it a try.  Jessica loves anything musical and loves when I make her things using music notes.  I purchased a roll of great quality wrapping paper and it is giving me miles of opportunities.  Here is the banner that I made to celebrate Jess' birthday...

 Here is a close-up!

When I was done I decided to make her a coordinating birthday card

Because Jess and Jeff are both very musical people, little Sawyer is very advanced in his musical aptitude.  I see a drummer in our future!  I'm sure they will let him try whatever he wishes to see which is best for him.  

Can you see that I used the new CABLE KNIT Embossing Folder?

This Embossing Folder is like no other Embossing Folder.  It is probably twice as thick as the others and you only need one Clear Plate when running it through the Big Shot.  It leaves this beautiful deep image that looks JUST like a sweater.

Other products I used:

CardStock: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Regals Designer Paper Pack

Tools: Banners Framelits, Large Letters Framelits, Bird Builder Punch (retired), Layering Ovals Framelits, Basic Pearls, Stampin' Dimensionals, Big Shot

Coffin Treats

Today's feature is one of the cards that the ladies made at the CARD CLUB on Monday Night.

The Coffin is made using the SWEET HOME Thinlits
The tag was cut by hand and sponged with Tangerine Tango using the SUITE SEASONS Stamp Set
I also made some Coffin Treats for the upcoming Craft Sale on October 15th at the Georgetown Bible Church.

Halloween is NOT my favorite 'holiday', but I have friends to love it and I need to make things up for the Craft Sales.

Another QUICK and EASY craft sale item - courtesy of the September Paper Pumpkin Kit.  Mine arrived and instantly I was able to assemble these fun test tubes for the craft sales.  I filled them with the itty bitty M&M's, stamped the tag and tied the bow - it really is that easy!

These are the varieties of tags that they give you ( a total of 48 tags)  You get 16 of these cute (food safe, plastic) test tubes and 36 adhesive banners.  These are all the word stamps that come in the kit as well as the images I am showing you.  I thought the sun stamp could also be a sunflower stamp, and what a cute little pumpkin!!

This cutie was one of the cards that were out yesterday for the ladies to make at the COME STAMP WITH ME CLASS.  When I made this card it was to feature the Black Spider Web Doilies that went on the Clearance Rack, but they sold out so fast I wasn't able to post this fast enough.

Here are the products that I used for this card which was inspired by combining several ideas that I saw on Pinterest.

Sentimental Sunday

Yesterday our 14 year old grandson, Tyler, earned his 2nd Dan, 2nd Level Black Belt in Karate!!  We couldn't be more proud!

A bow to mom...

 And a hug!

 Congratulations, Tyler!!

This is the card that I made for Tyler.  After all the belt tests over the years, I'm having a hard time coming up with something unique.  No other color is needed this time except that Tyler will get another gold stripe on his black belt.

Thanks for stopping by!
