My first shaker card

I made this for my friend Yvonne, a lady in my doll house miniature group (my other blog)  Her birthday is in November so I thought this would be a good one for her.
 She also likes to make cards!

I put in sequins of gold and some chucky gold glitter!

My Fall "mason" Jar creation

click on the pic to see it larger

Using all Dollar tree items except the

 spray paint and rope string tie.

 were used on this project.

The jar, (is not a mason but same size nice) and

it's nice and smooth for the maple leaf decal

 that I cut on the Cricut.

using contact paper  called Magic Cover used

for school books.

 The fall leaves were on a vine that had the leaves,

berries (as seen here)  a pine cone and a little pumpkin.

 the  candle, dried beans were all 

  bought at Dollar tree.

My DIL also made 2 one for her and

 one for her mom  but they are not finished

on top  yet so I can post a picture of them yet.

Happy Fall Ya'll!

 

 

my butterfly glow candle

This was purchased at the Dollar tree. A fake flame on top.

 it lights up changes colors.

I didn't use vinyl. I used card stock so I could open the wings!  

I blinged my Cricut!

 I finally found what I wanted to put

on my Cricut in black vinyl!
I later added Rhinestone!

The right side is card stock with wings up!

 

what I made for my friend

 

My friend Hermie

 posted this on picture on FB and thought

of her so I and made one for her

see the one below this..

 

 

the one I made, she loved it!!

yes, another butterfly card!

I bought the cards and envelopes in black in white

 that had a set of different patterns.

I colored  the flowers with a marker.

 This one was for a friend in Kenya!

I also love black and white and scrolls .

I plan on trying new things but this is it for now!
