Final November Reveal

Hello everyone and welcome to my last reveal for the month of November using the fabulous Fall kit!  I am telling you, if you have not picked your kit up yet you need to!

As you all have probably realized by now, I love my Cameo, usually at least one of my pages will feature Cameo cuts most of which I create myself.  This week is no different, my first project .  I used my Cameo and a hexagon background from the Silhouette store to create this wonderful layout featuring an older photo of my grandson at the local Botanical Gardens.  Yes I did use flowers on a boy page.....lol I don't do it often but sometimes I feel as if my page calls for it.

Next up is a page featuring the wonderful Bo Bunny papers included in this month's kit.  I covered the chalkboard with paper and created my off the page project from there.  I then wanted to give it a little background color to set it off so this two-toned paper from the kit was perfect.

Again, a couple of close ups

Well that's all folks.  Thanks so much for stopping by, see you next month!

Smooches!

Some More Projects using the November Kit!

I had some fun scrapping the other night using the November kit! Loving all the fall colors in this kit, perfect for scrapping some of my photos of my daughter jumping in the leaves!

I also am loving the chalkboard and chalkboard marker included in this month's kit...super cool and so very many possibilities on what to do with it. I kept it simple because I'm thinking I'm going to want to reuse this in our home for different holidays or to feature a favorite quote, etc. I simply added my sentiment with the chalkboard marker and added a bow with the fun ribbon (also in this month's kit!). 

I can't wait to hang it in our kitchen!

Thanks for stopping by and have a Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate!

Sharing Some November Kit Love!

 
I am super excited to share a couple of projects with you that I created using the November kit from Birds of a Feather! This kit is packed with beautiful rich colors and a fun mix of patterns. And I have to say that I am LOVING the corrugated alphas!!

For this layout I decided to create some borders using my large circle punch and cutting some of the patterned papers and then cutting the circles in half. A super easy way to create an area of interest on your page! For my journaling I printed on white cardstock and cut it into strips...I've been on a kick when it comes to doing my journaling this way lately!

Using some of my scraps from the layout above I whipped up a sweet and simple card! Adding some of the flowers from this month's kit and a laser cut chipboard piece I was done!

Fall Reveals-Brenshevia

Hello everyone and welcome to my first BOAF reveal of the month!  I am so excited to bring you projects using this wonderful Fall kit from BOAF.  For my first layout I used a wonderful cutting file designed by yours truly.  You can find that file HERE if you are interested.  I had some photos taken of me from a couple of Falls ago for which the colors were perfect for these papers!

A few close-ups

I am really loving triangles lately on my projects!  Below is another project I created using one of my cut files which you can also find on my blog.  This photo was taken of me also a few years back in Colorado on a trip to the beautiful Garden of the Gods.  Again, perfect for Fall!

And now for a few close ups

Thanks so much for stopping by.  If you have not picked up your kit yet, now is the time to do so!

Smooches!

Technique Tuesday : Thanksgiving Place Setting/Table Decoration

For today's Technique Tuesday I'm actually going to share a super simple "mini" tutorial with you! Something perfect for the upcoming holiday...Thanksgiving!

I used one double sided sheet of paper from my Birds of a Feather November kit, some flowers from the kit and added an additional patterned paper from the kit later on (the word FAMILY was cut from this sheet) as well as a length of ribbon.

First I cute 5 strips of paper all measuring 1 inch in width and the following in length: 9 1/2, 8, 6 1/2, 5 and 3 1/2 inches.

I then cut holes on all of my strips on both ends...

Thread your ribbon through all the strips on one end...

and then feed them through the other ends of the paper strips.

When the ribbon is through all of the paper strips tie the ribbon so that it looks like so...

Now you can embellish as you see fit! These would look cute as name holders on your Thanksgiving table or scattered about a little arrangement of mini pumpkins and gourds too!
