Autumn Red Truck for the season

Everyone is still into the Red Truck Christmas theme for Christmas and some have started doing an Autumn theme. I even jumped on and check out this Autumn Red Truck for this season. I added tail lights and lights in the bed of the truck. If you are wanting to create one yourself, just go here to see the youtube video I followed.

Day 4 of Day of the Dead/Sugar Skull Wreaths

This wreath is Black and Red for my cousin. She is dressing up as a Day of the Dead Senorita and she wanted hers to match the black and red outfit she is wearing. She loved it! (sorry for the picture not being better. I had no more room to hang my wreaths :))

This is the last picture of my wreaths, most have sold and picked up. Sorry I did not get them taken but I will be showing other Halloween items till Halloween.

Other crafty items I create

I not only create cards but also craft other items. I am currently working on Autumn/Fall and Christmas items. Here are some pictures of some of the items I am working on. 

Halloween wreath made with Dollar Tree items. Plaque, mesh ribbon, wreath form and butterflies. The plaque says " Home of a handsome devil, a wicked witch and their little monsters.

Here is my Autumn tiered tray I decorated.

This was my mother in laws and I re-purposed it. I painted it white, added the valance and decorated it with the scarecrows and flowers for fall. Come Christmas I will redecorate it.

These are yardstick swags. These are easy to make and I sold several at a craft fair.

My daughter wanted a centerpiece for her table at Christmas. She gave me the box and I started decorating it. I first added the poinsettias, then the frosted foliage. I felt it needed more. I inherited my mother in laws craft items. I decided to go through them and found the Holly. I added it and then added the bird. I decorated the other side the same way. I should my daughter and she fell in love with it and then proceeded to tell me the Holly was from her wedding. I then remembered it was around the cake. I knew then that my mother in law had been the one nudging me to add it to the centerpiece. This will always have a special meaning to my daughter.

I love snow! Winter is my favorite season and Christmas my favorite holiday. So what better way to have snow inside than a basket of faux snowballs. Cardinals are my favorite bird so I added it to my basket.

This snowman I got from the dollar tree. It is actually three pumpkins with a witches hat. I turned it over and decorated it as snowman.

Autumn Home Decor

Iwas at the Dollar General and came across these milk cans and I knew I just had to have them. I brought them home and took off the sticker that was on them and redecorated it with the Stampin' Up! Country Lane Suite. I love how this turned out.

Autumn/Fall the season of fireworks and bonfires...

 digging out your scarves to feel the crisp cool breezes, the scents of apple and pumpkin pies, hot apple cider to drink by the fire. Friday night football games. To play hide and seek in the leaves (we played ghost in the graveyard). Run through the leaf piles, hayrides, cooking pies and eating marshmallows over the fire, making smore's, telling ghost stories, oh the days of being a kid.

 

That is okay though now being an adult can be fun to especially with Stampin' Up!

 

If you are like me you have been checking out all the other demonstrators emails and blogs to see what they have created with the Holiday catalog. Wow! There is some very inspiring demonstrators out there and I hope I am one of them that you look forward to receiving an email from.

I LOVE the Coffee Café bundle. I have made several cards with it. I did not realize they would come out with one for the Holiday's called the Merry Café.

 

So before I know this I created some Holiday cards with the Coffee Café.

 

 

Here is what I created with the Merry Café for fall.

 

 From left to right front to back, the first one is an easel post it note/calendar card and I used "Hello Fall Its pumpkin spice latte season," I die cut 3 of the Perk Up cups, the second one is a matchbook post it note and I used the Apple Cider stamp. The back one is a gate fold card with a belly band and I used the Wood Words stamp " Thanks a bunch" and the next one is a note pad and I die cut a perk up cup, a gold mini cup and used the "Par-Tea! in a cup stamp. 

 Here they all are opened up. The card inside I stamped Apple Cider and from Wood Words I used " A note for you" , the circle (also on the belly band) from wood words and stamped Farmers Market. I then cut a crate with the framlit adhered it and added an apple keychain. This would be excellent for a teacher!

Lovely as a Tree

This is the popular stamp set from Stampin' Up. I watched a video from Stamp and Scrap with Frenchie. She showed how to make a beautiful sunrise. Here is my version of it:

I used So Saffron as the card base, the mat is Pink Pirouette. Whisper white card stock for the stamping of the trees. I used gold embossing powder for the tree bases and the trees themselves are embossed with Fall Splendor. Sorry my pics are dark but in person it is really pretty. The background is what Fenchie showed how to create. The ink I used is So Saffron, Pink Pirouette and Pistachio Pudding. Black memento ink for the Thinking of You (Sincere Salutations stamp set, retired 2005) and a piece of pink ribbon across the top.

Enchanted Autumn SVG Kit - Assembly Tutorial

To bad Cricut stopped SCAL. These would be great to make! Guess I will have to get a cameo to do these to go with my Cricuts.
Love the Indian corn and the pumpkin coach.

Autumn/Fall

While surfing on pinterest I came across some Card Candy. I thought I would try my hand at it. Since I was in a fall swap, I felt this would be a good opportunity. So here is my Fall/Autumn card candy. I thought for my first try, it was not bad:)

Fall Alphabet swap

I was recently in a swap. The theme is fall and we made/bought 26 items plus altered a shoe box. Here is what I received from my partner MoGoggingirl:)


I love the box:) Will be great for holding my fall scrapping items. I love altered box!!
Thank you Mogoggingirl. I loved it all:)

To see what I created for my partner, Just go to her blog Donna's Thought's
