we have a new Anything Goes Challenge starting.

I was asked by my SIL to create some

toppers for treat bags she wanted to give out.

This is what I came up with:

The leaves and acorns are from Doodlecharms

and the paper is from Hobby Lobby.

I think they turned out super cute.

BBTB2 - "Thanks"

Happy Monday!

Can you believe Thanksgiving is this week?!?!

Crazy!

For our last Thanksgiving challenge

this month over at BBTB2,

we want to see your projects that

feature the word "Thanks".

I decided to use Create A Critter 2.

It has an awesome Phrase in the Thanksgiving

section of the handbook. I only used part of it though.

The pumpkin is also from CAC2, it is an accessory cut.

My background paper is from Hobby Lobby.

I used a technique that I haven't done in a while.

I pulled out Tim Holtz Tea Dye Distress Ink

to ink around all the edges.

I also decided to use some brads,

which I haven't done on a project in a long time.

These are fun embellishments.

My pumpkin is popped up on some foam tape.

I added the sentiment "giving" above the "THANKS" phrase

by masking a "Happy Thanksgiving" sentiment

and just inking up the last part of it.

Turned out great :)

I hope you will join us over at BBTB2 this week!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Thanks for checkin' in!!!

BBTB2 - Fall Colors Challenge

Happy Monday!

Welcome to another challenge over at BBTB2!

I have selected the theme of Fall Colors

because I absolutely love these colors together.

I used Celebrate with Flourish for this awesome

Pilgrim hat and just some papers in my stash.

The sentiment is from CardzTV Many Thanks set.

I hope you will join us over at BBTB2 this week!

Thanks for checkin' in!

BBTB2 - Pumpkins

Happy Monday!

I hope you all survived the Halloween weekend

and Daylight Savings :)

As time continues on, we are looking forward

to Thanksgiving and all things Pumpkin!

So the challenge over at BBTB2 is

to feature a Pumpkin on your Thanksgiving cards.

My favorite pumpkin cut is from Freshly Picked.

I used the flip feature and cut the stem on the other

side of the pumpkin so I could fit the sentiment

in the upper right hand corner.

The background mat is paper from CTMH

and I used Elegant Edges to cut it out.

My pumpkin papers are from Basic Grey.

The jewels are from Darice, and

the sentiment is from CardzTV.

It's a super simple card, but I like how it turned out.

I hope you will join us over at BBTB2!
