"Feeling Squirrelly"

Fall is almost here and its my favorite season. I love the cool crisp air in the mornings and the sun is just right, not to hot or cold! The colors are amazing too.  So to get a head start I created this fun fall layout!

On this layout I used the "Feeling Squirrelly" file and the "Going Batty" file. These little guys are so adorable!

 I created a big acorn in the background by taking one of the acorn files and welding it together in my MTC software. One I got it to the size I wanted  then I created a shadow for it. The patterned paper I used on the acorn is "Indian Summer fall stack" by DCWV.

The tree branch is from the "Going Batty" file. I just added an acorn to it.

For my title I just typed it up in my MTC and welded the letters together. I must admit it was a little tricky. I had to cut it out a few times because the letters were so thin. But in the end it worked out.

Thanks for stopping by and until the next have a great one!

LSHD DT Challenge



My first Little Scraps of Heaven Designs DT project is a birthday card. The DT challenge is to create a layout or project using "Something Old". At first I struggled trying to figure out what I was gonna make.

So I picked the oldest paper stack I could find. The paper is "Celebrate" by American Traditional Designs. This old pack has die cut shapes and titles which I used on my card as well as the coordinating patterned paper and solid card stock I used for the base. The bear coming out of the present comes from the file "Christmas Bears Pattern Collection". I left out the bow piecing and stars from the present file and added ric rak instead. For the bear I used shimmery cream colored card stock. All the piecings including the balloon and title are inked in TH distress inks.



So start pulling out your old paper and embellishments you've been neglecting and join us in the "Something Old challenge" and post your projects on Little Scraps of Heaven Designs Facebook page. Can't wait to see what you create!!
