Eek!

I had the opportunity the other day to create my first project with Bella Blvd's Halloween Magic collection and what a wickedly wonderful time I had! So many cool colors, patterns and spooky characters are packed into this line!

It's been a while since I've added googly eyes to a project...this spider was perfect for them! 

I can't believe summer is winding down! We just returned from our annual beach trip, Christopher went back to school today and I have lots of new holiday collections to start creating with. I love this time of year...although I'm really going to miss peaches and watermelon and long daylight hours. ;)

Reverse Confetti - August Color Challenge

Hip hip hooray, it's time for the Reverse Confetti August color challenge! Ooh la la we're using red navy and gold this month! I love including metallic paper on cards and here was my chance to do just that! 

I used the Tag Me, Too and Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cuts to make tags, one vellum, the other gold foil paper, as a background layer for the adorable Here We Go plane.

I adore this chubby little Here We Go plane and gave it a silver metallic propeller and topped it with a star die cut and mini navy button. 

A mixture of jute, baker's twine and craft string were combined for the tag's bow.

The Oh My Stars Confetti Cuts are perfect for adding star accents to projects as I did here.

Hello! Today I have a Reverse Confetti card share for you...a card I made with the new Fabulous Flamingo stamps and four Confetti Cuts sets. Can you spot all of them?

I may be bias, but I think this is the cutest flamingo strutting it's stuff around the paper crafting blogs and sites! :)

Most of the time, especially in summer, I use a lot of bright colored papers and patterns for my projects, but I was in the mood for natural tones. I love the mix of Kraft stock, wood and jute...they look awesome together, don't you think? 

Happy Day

I love this scarf and really enjoyed using it as an inspiration piece!

Here's a peek at my design. Hope you have a moment to have a look.
