Die Cuttin' Divas Challenge #184 "Fall is Here"


Happy Tuesday! How are you remarkable readers? Things are going great here in sunny Oklahoma! Soccer season is now in full swing (or kick haha). This week marks a milestone for me here, it's my 20th post. Some of you may know that I promised a blog overhaul after my 20th post. This week I will officially start shopping for a new design. Maybe a button, woo, or a logo. I won't go too crazy. Also, my new part time job will be no longer a week from today. Some things have happened which have caused a need to have more flexibility in my schedule. No worries, nothing bad, actually all hopeful. :) 

Now let's get with the crafting :)  This week our challenge over at Die Cuttin' Divas was to create a project based on my very favorite time of year, Fall. I love this season so much I was certain I would be overflowing with ideas, but that was not the case.  So I went to Pinterest and found some inspiration here.  I used some Paper Studio papers (I'm sure you're surprised huh? ha). I also used my Cricut with the Autumn Celebrations cartridge and the ones built into my E2. 



I inked the edges with some Brilliance ink in Copper. The leaf is a sticker from a clearance sticker pack I found at Michael's. 

Sorry for the poor picture quality, the lighting was working against me, but I sure love how these colors go together. The eyelets are the wide eyelets from WRMK. 


This is my little cowboy helping me out. I think he got the best lighting for me.  The ribbons are from a multi-pack from Hobby Lobby.


My son and daughter had a blast finding the acorns and leaves for these pictures. They have so much fun getting involved.

Well folks that is all I have for today. This project is the beginning of my Autumn decorations. I have so many. We usually travel for Christmas, so I go all out for Fall. Let me know what you think, and don't forget to submit your Fall creations over at the Die Cuttin' Divas. Have a good week you all :)  Thanks for reading!
