Birds of a Feather

Hi!

How are you this fine Sunday? I rarely blog on Sunday, but I wanted to let you know that I have a tutorial posted today on the Birds of a Feather blog for making simple decorated frames like this.

If you have a little time, I hope you can hop over and take a look.

Have a lovely Sunday!

Birds of a Feather November Kit

Happy fall Friday! 

I'm thankful this morning for no broken bones! I took a tumble down the stairs last night and I'm hobbling around this morning grateful that I didn't really hurt myself! And I'm thankful for another beautiful sunny morning! Life is good!

Today I have my second guest design post for you using the gorgeous November Birds of a Feather kit.

 This kit includes the most beautiful fall papers and accents, don't you think? It really is easy to create lovely autumn projects with!

I think I've mentioned how much I adore the Simple Stories sticker sheets included in the kit? The little wooden house with heart cut-out had to be a focal point on one of my projects. It's just so sweet! To see more projects using the November kit click here.

So what will you do with your weekend? Any fun fall activities planned? Whatever I do, it'll be something low key while my aching body heals. Perfect time to get creative, don't you think?

Thanks for visiting! Have a great weekend!

Hi!

Did you have a good Halloween? We carved our pumpkin, roasted seeds and ate plenty of sweets! ;)

Today's a good day to visit my blog because I have a lot of crafty goodies to share with you! If you didn't see my announcement a couple weeks ago, I'm guest designing this month for the lovely Birds of a Feather kit club and today I have my first two projects to reveal.

Each year in October my hubby and I take a day off and go to the North Carolina State Fair together. It's a fun day for the two of us to leisurely take in all the sights and eat lots of yummy foods. Our first stop is always to pick up a glass of fresh pressed apple cider.

November's Birds of a Feather kit was perfect for documenting our day.

All the apple images and harvest phrases worked seamlessly.

I love all the rich autumn hues and pretty paper patterns in this kit!

I had a lot of fun with the stickers, layering them and grouping them together.

Another kit favorite is the sheet of bingo cards.

A little zigzag stitching here and there completed the rustic and homemade feel.

This page was a lot of fun....can you tell. Lots to play with and I spent a good deal of time arranging and re-arranging until I got things just the way I wanted.

Next up is a card. You know me and my cards! I love to make them!

I  used another bingo card as the focal point.

This wreath is so pretty, don't you think?

And the birds are so adorable!!!!

So what do you think of this Birds of a Feather kit? There's actually a whole lot more to it than I was able to pack into these first two projects so I'm happy that I'll have two more posts to share more of it with you. To see the entire kit and more projects, visit the Birds of a Feather site and blog.

If that wasn't enough autumn goodness for you, I have a couple of Cards on Thursday projects for you using the adorable Thankful collection from Bella Blvd.

I really enjoyed re-visiting this collection! You may remember that I made a lot of projects with this line for summer CHA?

Be sure and hop over to the Bella Blvd. blog for my Cards on Thursday! My teammates always create amazing projects!

Thanks so much for your visit today! I hope you enjoyed all my creations! I better go get busy making more! After posting so many here today, I need to replenish! ;)
