Say Cheese Lawn Fawn Mice!

Howdy, and happy Tuesday! Karla back today, and I hope your week is going great so far. I've had a lot of crafty stuff going on lately, and today I wanted to share these sweet Lawn Fawn Thankful Mice! They are so cute, and perfect for this Thanksgiving card.

I had a piece of background paper in a Smash book that had the Say Cheese sentiment on it, so I cut it into a banner shape and added it to my card, layering the swiss cheese image from the same paper behind my Simple Stories Polaroid cut out. I layered the mason jar and adorable mice onto the photo, using some popdots for dimension. A pretty piece of striped Simple Stories paper was just right for the base of my card.

I cut the mason jar from velum using a metal die and my Cuttlebug and added some of the yummy cheese inside. I used a little tea bag tag from the Love You A Latte set and a tiny heart to the top of my jar.

Inside, I used the sentiment included with the set and another piece of cheese along with that cute heart stamp again.

A few sequins and buttons from the 28 Lilac Lane collection finish off my card!

Thanks so much for stopping by today, and I hope you have a wonderful week!

A Flip Book for Allison!

Karla here today, and I have a flip book to share with you! These are just so fun to make when you want to play with different supplies and techniques. This is a book I swapped with a sweet girl, Allison - you can find her IG here with links to her YouTube channel - and she sent me the cutest flip book too! I used Project Life cards as my base and attached them with washi tape. I embossed a pretty sentiment with gold embossing powder, and used some soft pink crinkly ribbon to tie the outside. I love adding my recipients name on the front to personalize it even more!


Here's a look at all the pages I included. I added stickers, paper ephemera, handmade tags, 3x4 journaling cards as smaller flaps, stamps, doilies and sequins, along with some goodies for Ally to use! 
 Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you found some inspiration to create something fun for yourself or a friend.

A+ Teacher Card!

Hi there crafty friends!! Karla here today, sharing a teacher card today using a Stamping Bella teacher stamp I've had in my stash for quite some time now - but still love! I actually made this for my daughter's teacher at the end of the year in June, but I think it could totally be used for a September new teacher card!

I stuck with a pretty basic design on a 5.5"x 5.5" top folding card base, using some BoBunny papers along with the blue and white polka dot paper. I love the primary colour scheme!

I used some Prismacolor and Hobby Colour Markers, which are alcohol based to colour in my image before mounting it on some red patterned paper. The shiny blue pearls from 28 Lilac Lane add just the right shimmer and matched perfectly. I was so excited to see that Selena had them in her store and online!

Inside, I used some cute sentiments that came with the set!

There's something fun about a top folding card!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I'd love to hear whether you give teacher cards other times of the year and not just holidays or end of the year! Have a wonderful, happy and crafty week!
